This game demo is downloadable from the Japanese PS store. Personally i have no idea what is going on, but when a game forces the player to start whipping things to win, i probably know it isn't for me. Also you can't control where the horse goes. All in all, the chocobo mini-game in FF7 is better than this.

Quick Review: GI Joke-y

After the initial scandal of the Drake's Fortune demo, in which the demo was 'accidentally' region locked, so that UK players couldn't play it, I finally get my hands on the demo of the game that looks like it could be the best this year.
Gameplay: 8
This game boasts good gameplay. With innovative use of the Six-axis and good platforming sections, the game's core element seems to be solid. However, gunplay is a little bit fiddly, but the cover system more than makes up for this.
Graphics: 9
Water effects and animations are very impressive. You really feel like you are in a jungle in South America.
Sound: 10
Expertly crafted orchestral scores in the demo really make you feel the tension of the game build up. Brilliantly done!
Longevity: 4
This demo lasts about 20 minutes.

Overall Score:8.5/10

+Great graphics
+Superb music
+Brilliant cover system
+Well executed animations
-Too short
-Aiming is a little bit fiddly

Quick Summary: Looks like a great game, maybe a must buy?
