About this product

Product Information

Unravel a mystery that traverses the realms of the living and beyond in the classic PlayStation 2 exclusive game Primal. This PS2 title features advanced AI programming, realistic motion capture-based fighting sequences, and seamless cut scenes. Change between human and demon forms with unique abilities to solve puzzles, and advance the quest to solve the central mystery. Released in 2003, this title is an essential game for players who pride themselves on a well-rounded backlog. Primal stands out as a puzzle platform game by fully leveraging the unique power of the Sony PlayStation 2 gaming console.In this video game, you play as 21-year-old Jen, a waitress who has overcome a rough past that includes losing her parents at a young age and having to learn how to survive. Her boyfriend Lewis is a singer in a band who is taken by dark forces soon after he begins to have nightmares. Now, it is up to Jen, the only witness to the supernatural forces at work, to find and save him. After beginning her journey, she teams up with Scree, a living gargoyle, to solve puzzles and fight the waiting enemies. The player can change between these characters freely to help overcome obstacles and change perspectives across four different dark realms that range from an underwater world to a medieval village.As Jen progresses in her journey to recover her lost love, she gains abilities through the changing of different forms. Each form has unique abilities that are advantageous not only during fierce combat but also to progress the player beyond certain game-advancing obstacles. Combat in this PlayStation release involves the use of finishing moves and draining the defeated enemies of their residual life energy. Sidekick Scree can store this energy for when it's needed later on for use by the various demon forms. If the gargoyle's reserves run low, the player must then rely on finding energy crystals scattered randomly throughout the realms.When taking the form of the gargoyle, the player is invulnerable to damage and can climb walls to overcome obstacles. Transitions in this game are quite smooth as a result of technically advanced dynamic disc loading. This allows Primal to have a larger world full of captivating environmental effects and smoother play. This also allows for seamless cut scenes to be better integrated into the game without jarring load screens interrupting play. The advanced motion capture fighting action in Primal is also enhanced because of the PlayStation 2's advancements in technology.Listed as one of the major classics in the catalog of PS2 games, the compelling story and unique character switching stand out. The advanced techniques that allowed grander features to load quickly make for an enjoyable gaming experience that keeps the story moving. Primal, rated M for Mature, is one of the earliest 3D incarnations of the puzzle platforming genre, giving it a special place in PS2 history.

Great game play with an exhilirating theme
The game's graphics are at the top for ps2 games. It has decent Ai for it's time and I like it's story line. The game's characters are easy to control throughout the game play without having complicated button sequences to memorize. The game's fmv's are spread about evenly throughout the game and they add a lifelike feeling to the experience. Great game.

Primal (Playstation 2) Review
Primal is a great game, with very good graphics. A player can expect many hours of play in its vast world. The ability to gain and utilize 4 distinct demon forms anytime the player wants, adds to the experience. These forms will be necessary to solve some of the challenging puzzles in Primal. The game is a large 3-D adventure/RPG, with the ability to switch between the two main characters, also necessary to solve certain puzzles. The game is challenging, but you can ask for help from one of the characters at anytime. There is also a hidden cheat, that can be found on-line to aid less skilled players, such as invincibility, or one hit kills. The storyline is also well thought out and entertaining, featuring voice talents such as Xena warrior Princess' Hudson Leick (Callisto) as the main character. There is one slight problem with the game. Glitches can occur while playing, causing freeze ups or the inability to switch between the characters. However they are infrequent, and as long as you have at least two save files, just save frequently, and restart from the previous save point and it should be fine. Nevertheless I would still strongly recommend this game for its fun factor and originality, I have not seen another game like this before, it is well worth puchasing it.Read full review

At Least It's Cheap
I purchased this game for only one reason: I had 5 bucks to blow, so I bought this used. There were not alot of other choices. I thought it might be worth some good playing time, but after a few hours, I was pretty much finished with it. The puzzles are interesting and the scenery is nice, but beyond that, the game takes a turn for the worse. The combat controls are awful. Sometimes you can accomplish a nice combo by button mashing, and do a very nice looking move that turned out to do no damage because the enemy walked away or decided to block while you were doing it. And this game has it's fair share of glitches to boot. I was constantly getting the characters stuck in places, having trouble getting them out. I also have heard many people say its possible to fall out of the world, but I suppose I never played long enough for that to happen. As for the characters, I wasn't much impressed. Jen is sarcastic and has bouncy breasts. Not alot going for her. Scree is a gargoyle. Thats it. Now then, should you purchase this game? Sure, if you have a few bucks to blow. It might entertain you for a couple hours.Read full review

Primal AN ADULT GAME, A MUST BUY
There are probably about 8 games I own for the Plastation 2 this is by all means one of them. Im really particular on how I waste my time playing videogames, buy let me tell you, this game is worth it! Very easy to play, and very addictive also. This game has it all: Gothic, great graphics, dry & sarcastic sense of humor, awesome music/sound, fun & challenging puzzles, and a superb story line, very...very easy to play, in other words, this game has it all. Now that everybody is getting "juicy" about the overrated new systems that are coming out, this game will kick @#$% .......even 10 years from now. A MUST BUY!
