"PSU: "Remember Afrika? Well, it's Afrika no longer; meet National Geographic: Africa.

National Geographic is jumping headfirst into the gaming industry by snagging the publishing rights to the PS3 wildlife photography title, which is expected to launch in North America next month. There's no word on a European release just yet.

National Geographic Games also announced it has partnered with Namco Bandai Games America and Sony Computer Entertainment to publish and distribute future National Geographic-branded titles globally on major gaming consoles and handheld devices, including the Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS, PlayStation 3 and PSN, PCs and mobile devices such as the iPhone."

My Personal Opinion: Better late then never.

i was reading the other day they were going to get more into the game business...i had figured it was just going to be shitty games on the computer.

Wait wait wait,

so the game will officially be called "National Geographic:Africa"?

Does anybody else think what little sales this game would have gotten just became even less?

At least with "Afrika" it had that "ooo, Africa but spelled with a K...gotta try this" now it's "wtf? I don't want to learn in my PS3 games....although, there might be some pictures of half-naked African women in there...hmm..."

o.0 ....

no 360/Live mentioned by name?
odd...maybe they just implied it as a given

lol retarded name change. Btw it's very funny seing a Sony developed game published by another company lol. Erm.. Yeah, i dunno.. I think they must have paid a bit of cash to sony for that.

Awsome I have been waiting for this game to be sent across the Pacific. It will be a day one purchase for me. Hopefully they will also bring Aquanauts to the US too.

It would be very nice to see more games based on different parts of the world. Hopefully they will have New Zeland, Austrailia, Scottland, and more.

Good, I always thought this looked pretty cool.

I hope they make additional locations. I'd love a rain forest version.

Are there any reviews out for the Japanese version?

Uh oh, I just bought the Hong Kong version of Aquanaut's Holiday, don't tell me that game will be released in the US as well ey... ? Oh well its in English as well but perhaps the translation in the HK version kinda suck. Will soon find out. Good news Africa is coming to the Western side anyway.
