Overview
Take a Disney looking character, cross him with Conan the Barbarian, add a little Metal Gear Solid 2 and a dash of �button mashing� (Sword of the Berserk, Sega Dreamcast) and there you have it,� The Mark of Kri. Uncover the secrets of your family�s past,� ok,� we�ll go with that. As the heroic warrior, RAU, you fight your way though this action/adventure, straighter than straight platform game. There is a story behind the game, but in all honesty, you really won�t pay much attention to it. RAU is a Conan the Barbarian type hero who�s got tattoos,� yeah,� TATTOOS!
PROS
The �cartoon� graphics and hand drawn character/environments are what catches the eye. I was so in awe with the all the FMVs, and have to congratulate SONY for achieving an eye catching experience. You will notice how cartoon drawings merge together with computer graphics, prepping the gamer for the next level. The �slow-mo� style executions are fabulous! You will also notice �stealth style� executions (which vary) are very appealing the eye and mind,� ahhh,� beautiful,� The control scheme is pretty easy, and with the added �button assigned targets�, making it a cool, easy and innovative type of game play I�ve never seen before.
