great humor, fun story, stunning graphics - only held back by the janky collision system

Giants is a hybrid FPS/TPS with lightweight floaty combat, similar to C&C Renegade. There is no inventory/ammo management or map exploration, the basic game loop: you go to the map marker, kill/fetch the target, watch cutscene, restock on items and repeat. Enemies are stupid and there are no difficulty levels. Again, the combat has no weight to it and in general the game feels very cheaply made. As you can see from the other reviews, the only thing the game has going for it is the humour. The characters have funny accents, say bad words, and even make pp jokes! Highly recommend /s

Mesmo nos dias atuais, Giants Citizen Kabuto continua sendo um dos jogos mais únicos e fantásticos que já joguei na minha vida. Uma trama cheia de humor, bem contada e com 3 personagens completamente diferentes um do outro, em 3 campanhas diferentes que formam uma só. Além disso, conta com uma gameplay muito viciante e divertida, acompanhada de uma trilha sonora épica, composta por Jeremy Soule (O mesmo da franquia The Elder Scrolls). Embora muitos cenários possam parecer repetitivos, o design de cada ilha é muito diferente e as missões são bem diversificadas. PRA MIM, ele é melhor do que muitos jogos AAA de hoje em dia (Embora ele seja um AAA também, mas o orçamento dos jogos dos anos 2000 eram bem mais baixos que os de hoje em dia). Se você tiver interesse, ele se encontra disponível na Steam. Joguem e dêem uma chance, não irão se arrepender. Even in nowdays, still being one of funny and unique games i've played in my life. His story contain much humor, well taled and with 3 completely different characters one from them, with 3 campaigns that form just one. Besides, the gameplay is very funny, containg an epic soundtrack composed by Jeremy Sole (The same from The Elder Scrolls franchise). Even some scenarios may seems repetitives, the design and missions are very diversified. For me, Giants is much better than many AAA nowday games (Giants is AAA also, but in 2000 the budget was much smaller back then than it is today.). Giants is avaliable on steam, if you can play this game, JUST DO IT!!

One of the funniest games ever created. Mechanically they threw in everything except the kitchen sink. So if you want a focused polished experience this ain't it, but if you want imagination and diversity it's great. A bit buggy and hard to get into because of the dated tech to really recommend.

One of the best action adventures games I ever played in my entire life :) Humor is so ridiculous that makes you laugh constantly. Story also very enjoyable with few plot twists :)

One of the best older games I've ever played. The humor the 3 VERY different player types all interacting together in both single player and the never ending great multiplayer. I am SUPER SUPER PISSED this game never got BIG like other games. This game deserves to be reborn and get popular for a change because anyone who played it loved it!!! PERIOD!!!

I love the humor of the game, and the characters are quite likable. Nevertheless, the PC version (from GoG) is incredibly, incredibly broken on Windows 10. I'm not sure whether the original version was this bad. All the physics and hit detection fail to work correctly. Unless an enemy stops moving, my bullets will fail to hit it. The game isn't one bit balanced, and the save points vary all over the place. Some levels are way too long, and some are way too easy. It's quite repetitive. Every time I climb up a mountain, it feels like I'm glitching my way through the game, yet that's the way to beat it. It feels like there was very little quality control put into the gameplay itself. On the other hand, I really, really like the smartass humor in this game. Its dialogue is a masterpiece.

GIants Citizen Kabuto is not only a fabulous game with 3 distinctive play styles, a unique lore and universe but is the funniest game of all time without a doubt in my mind. Just watching to cut scenes makes me crack up in laughter. This is a cult classic with a gripping and hilarious story line that is easy to follow and an amazing game play engine where you play as marines, then as a magical witch then finally as the Giant himself. While the first two modes are fantastic, the Giant can feel way too repetitive and a really letdown of a final chapter. Giants Citizen Kabuto also had an online mode which I believe is still active with a small group of people who organise game sessions. Overall amazing game, if you like a good laugh and an amazing game, play Giants Citizen Kabuto!

One of those incredibly unique and original titles that were never truly appreciated, despite offering fantastic visuals and worlds especially for it's time, beautiful soundtrack by 2 of the best composers, , fun gameplay offering 3 completely different factions and amazing both single-player and multiplayer experience. 10/10

I cant believe it, its 2014 and i still play Giants On-line With my old school Friends! Giants has a very unique GamePlay and some fancy and enjoyable graphics regarding of its release date, The History isn't the best out there, but the Feeling This Game Offers is neat and very original i have to admit (compared with other games up to this date) and the Multiplayer Combination of Base Building and Team-Working to Defeat other totally Different Races is just GENIUS. Its a shame the developers team ran out of funds to release the game as they wanted to, I could pay to see a Giants 2 for sure.

Giants: Citizen Kabuto is one of my top 10 games of all time, a three part story complete of all parties associated with the planet and its inhabitants, with funny quarky moments, a good sound track and a lot of British slang and voice acting, this is one of the few games that really lifts my spirits after playing too many redundant games in the late era. Especially the base building mechanics in the game, paired with the way you destroy the enemies base. Kind a wish there was a Giants 2 *sobs.

I played this when it first came out and it barely ran on my machine. It looked gorgeous with the introductory pan over the island with the sun in the background and all the great sun flares. Then I played the game and it was absolutely sensational. It was a quirky, beautiful, unbelievably fun experience with great challenges and a game where an RTS and FPS combination was pulled off perfectly. I really don't understand why there was never a second one made.
