Donkey Kong Country Returns brings back the classic, well known series to full shine again.
Donkey Kong Country was a great game, which showed its strength especially in the graphics department and in its musical score. That game then got a sequel, Donkey Kong Country 2, which was an even bigger success than nu... Read Full Review

A faithful recreation of one of the best games ever made
Campaign: Although I've played through the original game several times, I still find the campaign of Anniversary to be refreshing. The Anniversary edition basically slaps on a fresh layer of gloss and adds terminals, ... Read Full Review

Nintendo can Kong my Donkey anytime!
Seriously, they can... As long as Nintendo keeps making games like this I don't see how they can ever be called a "second rate" gaming console. This game has everything you want in a game: great visuals, fantastic co... Read Full Review
