Giants: Citizen Kabuto was a kickass game

All three of you that bought it know what I'm talking about.
There were three sides; the meccaryns, the reavers; and kabuto. In single player you played as all three. The meccaryns had jetpack and guns and inflatable things and a helicopter, the reavers had magic and swords and things and kabuto was HOOOOOOGE.
I can actually barely remember anything about it other than it was amazing and the last few levels of the soldier campaign, where you had to build a base by collecting smarties (little builder dudes) and shooting herds of cattle while flying over with your jetpack in order to get the helicopter and awesome nukes to blow up the reavers. I played that level over and over and over. The reavers had way more base building missions but it wasn't as cool as that single soldier one. Playing as kabuto was neat too.
Talk about giants! You three guys that bought it!

Imma reinstall
The Mecc campaign was the best. Man, now I wish I remembered where my disk was. The ps2 version kinda sucks.
Oh and god damn this game was hard.
Edit: ya I later found the pc version for cheap and its is alot better than the ps2 version.
The one time I got into a decent game though, it was glorious. Kabutos were killed with suicide gyrocopter pilots, Reapers were douchebags with their little hover bikes, and good times were had.

I guess the real problem for me was that it kept jumping around in terms of what kind of game it wanted to be, and ended up not succeeding in any.
Also I remember something about some 'demo' that was all of 64k and everyone was jacking off to the idea and how it would be the future, which was funny.
It makes me sad because it sounds like something I would have liked

Let me just say that it was one of the best times I ever had with a game.
Oh and we could see the boobies. YES.
there is totally a copy of it laying in the free pile at activision right now, no one will trust me and play it though
Hell while we're at it... You Tube!

Wonderful Wonderful bastard of a game GCK was.

One guy being Kabuto and starting out really small,needing to hunt for food and Smarties to grow and at the end becoming a giant beast.
One team being Meccaryns and building their base and flying a helicopter around.
Another team being the sea reavers, also building a base,teleporting and jumping from hill to hill and at the end summoning a fucking tornado?
It was the most badass thing ever.
best game ever
EDIT: and haha, I knew what the above clip was going to be before watching it.
very underrated game as well
They were dumb.
Armed and Dangerous deserves a sequel
If only for the possibility of next-gen Topsy Turvy bombs and Land Shark gun

Multiplayer sounded so epic back before it was released. I wish it had reached its potential. It was frustrating mainly for the "hard to get games together" already mentioned.
How I'd love a sequel.
Eyes forever focused, on the sanguine, metal dawn.

I actually popped it in the other day, its still a pretty awesome game. But it would be nice if the devs (assuming they're still around) made something new.
they are making shovelware now

That is tremendously depressing.
It had a joke about SAMUEL PEPYS' diary. Made by a British alien. Do you need to know more? No, you don't.
Armed & Dangerous was pretty easy.
Then we must accept the conjecture that you suck.
I really love games with jetpacks (off topic, anyone remember a 80286 action-puzzle game called Jetpack?) I remember the jetpack mechanic kind of felt clunky, though.
probably why i'm going to end up getting a few tattoos from tribes :P
i should find something from giants to etch into my body as well
Oh, I forgot Interplay was the publisher...
