Combat of Giants: Dragons
PSP
$49
7/10
Squarely aimed at the younger generation, Combat of Giants: Dragons is a straight-forward fly and fight DS game.
At a price that will see it stuffed into many stockings this Christmas, Combat of Giants involved choosing one of four families of dragons, customising your beast, then flying around a world battling others and collecting gems.
Gamers can choose between fire, ice, wind and earth species and can pick between colours and attacks.
It is Pokemon inspired, but don't go deleting your level 20 Squirtle just yet, because Combat of Giants is not nearly as complex.
Most of your time will be spent flying, enduring random battles that are easily won and earning gems.
It looks pretty good and sounds OK. The cut scenes are boring and text can't be speed up with the push of a button, which drags things out even longer.
Combat of Dragons won't be much fun for the over 16 crowd, but the ankle-biter DS gamers should get a kick or two out of Ubisoft's latest offering.
