5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome
This game shows up what OS X is really capable of doing. It is very beautifully rendered. It works much better with a 32 MB Video card but works Ok with a 16 MB. It is very funny and exciting. I highly recommend this game. It is a great value for the money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining story, but nearly unplayable game.
This game is funny and enjoyable during the cutscenes, but cutscenes are not enough to make a game fun to play. As Meccaryns the game is fairly good. The combination of their jetpacks and weapons make them fun until the levels in which bases become involved, at which point your lack of ability to directly control more than one character makes it very frustrating,...

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!, November 25, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Giants Citizen Kabuto (Mac) (CD-ROM)
This game is fantastic. Fun, funny, and challenging. Not to easy that you finish it in one sitting. I've been playing for almost a month and it still has me interested. The only reason it is not 5 stars is that you cannot save save the game in the middle of missions. Some of the missions take an hour or more of playing and if you stop mid-way you have to start all over again the next time you play.
As for nudity, my version has the female characters in a bikini. I read that they changed the graphics to get rid of the nudity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Game for the Mac...EVER!!!, November 5, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Giants Citizen Kabuto (Mac) (CD-ROM)
I just bought this game and my breath has simply been taken away! The graphics, story, and gameplay all work together to make a playing experience unlike any other. No other game on the Mac comes close, and believe me, I have them all. The game is really addictive and hilariously funny as well! Anyone who doesn't have it is really missing out. Anyway...back to the game ;)

5.0 out of 5 stars lost lots of sleep, December 30, 2001

This review is from: Giants Citizen Kabuto (Mac) (CD-ROM)
This game is stunning! Graphics are GREAT. It is very easy too lose track of time. Story line is very funny. If you dont have a 5-button mouse yet this game is a good reason to get one. This game only runs on MAC OS X so all you OS 9 users will have to update your system software.

5.0 out of 5 stars Totally Unique, April 15, 2003
This review is from: Giants Citizen Kabuto (Mac) (CD-ROM)
I loved this game! It was thoroughly engaging from beginning to end. It has just the right combination of strategy, action, and humor. I have to laugh at the earlier reviewer knocking the nudity: the only way to get the nudity is to download a hack that specifically says what it does. Besides it is only partial nudity and was only in the 'mermaid' section of the game and it is tastefully done.

1.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining story, but nearly unplayable game., July 31, 2003
This review is from: Giants Citizen Kabuto (Mac) (CD-ROM)
This game is funny and enjoyable during the cutscenes, but cutscenes are not enough to make a game fun to play. As Meccaryns the game is fairly good. The combination of their jetpacks and weapons make them fun until the levels in which bases become involved, at which point your lack of ability to directly control more than one character makes it very frustrating, especially when you are need to leave the base for resources, but are being attacked from multiple unknown directions. In the other two thirds of the game, any ranged weapons that are available quickly become useless and the melee combat systems are very poorly implemented. The one thing that all of the characters that the player uses in this game have one thing in common: they move too slowly! I found myself using every special power that I had to get across the monotonous expanses to find the next enemy or objective, so that they weren't available when I got there... this isn't an RPG, the player shouldn't have to do that much walking. In short, the developers of this game couldn't decide on a genre, so they threw together the worst elements of several. It's a shame, a great game could have been made with this story, but the developers failed to do so.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too much nudity and crude language, November 16, 2002
By 
This review is from: Giants Citizen Kabuto (Mac) (CD-ROM)
This game has great, action-filled play. However, the mermaids, with their fully developed, unclothed, human bodies there for all to see is basically animated pornography. The crude language throughout makes the game a complete turnoff.

1.0 out of 5 stars Saving Mac for last and doing only OS 10?, October 20, 2001
This review is from: Giants Citizen Kabuto (Mac) (CD-ROM)
Ironic this game will play on windows 95 which is the equivalent of Mac OS 7.5 but won't run on anything less than OS 10 for a Mac. Welp, that's not enough for me to upgrade to OS 10. Guess I'd rather put the $250 in RAM and software upgrades towards a new Playstation/Xbox.

Somebody is getting a kickback for that I'm sure.
