Microsoft Responds To Reports Of Xbox Live Account 'Jacking' Don’t tell anyone, but here at Kotaku we’ve been generally impressed with the Bee Movie Game, based off of the DreamWorks movie in which a disillusioned bee realises that humans have been taking their honey for centuries and decides to sue us. Not only is it a movie-based video game, but it is an animated feature aimed towards children and adults the likes of which have produced countless mediocre console titles in the past. We’ve a feeling this game could break the mold, and now Xbox 360 owners can find out for themselves. The Bee Movie Game demo is now up on Xbox Live, all 445 or so megabytes of it – enough to give you a taste of life as a small bee in the big city. See for yourself what the buzz is all about. Yeah, I actually wrote that last line. Can’t believe it myself.
I’ll be honest – I’ve never played a Dreamworks Animation game. Say, anything to do with Shrek, for example. I can’t imagine that I ever would.
Bee Movie, on the other hand, did hold my interest when Activision showed it off at Activate Asia in Cairns recently. It’s more than just based on the Jerry Seinfeld-helmed movie of the same name. From what was shown, aptly-named developer Beenox has gone to the trouble of recreating the events in the film, blow-by-blow, for the PC and console title – with the help of Seinfeld, no less.
It should go down well with the little ones, even if the resulting product is extremely linear, and I reckon it wouldn’t be too bad for a single play through.
Here’s a gallery of PC and PS2 shots for your perusal.
