'Emperor's Tomb' on Xbox preview online

Tuesday, October 29, 2002 - Gilles V
 

IGN.com scored the first Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb on Xbox online preview. It's a great preview that talks about positive and even a few negative things on the gameplay, environments and action. Plus the preview comes with 15 fantastic screenshots! Here's a part of the preview:

So what all can Indy do this time around? We'll start with the obvious: Indy can whip. The whip can be used to knock weapons out of enemy's hands and swing from conveniently placed ledges. You can hit people with it, but it does little more than stun the enemy for a brief second. Aiming the whip isn't too hard, and swinging with it is a cinch since not only is there an icon in the corner of the screen to let you know you're in position, but once in position, using the whip will automatically attach you the protruding ledge.

Another 'Emperor's Tomb' interview online

Friday, October 11, 2002 - Gilles V
 

GameZone.com also interviewed Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb producer Jim Tso. Here's an except:

GameZone: Saw the demo of this game at E3, and the first thing that was both surprising and wonderful at the same time was the face of Indiana Jones. For the first time in the game's history, it is the face of Harrison Ford. How hard was this to pull off, frame-after-frame, in the game?
Jim:It was fairly difficult, our art director spent a huge amount of time working with scans of Harrison's face and getting those into the game. The power of these new systems has really given us the ability to make an Indy game that's closer to the movies.
