Enslaved DLC: Pigsy's Perfect 10

Score: 7.0 / 10

I told you last time to rush out and buy Enslaved: Odyssey to the West and some of you did. Most of you didn’t. If you didn’t buy it, go out and get the discounted version and then buy this DLC. It’s actually like an entirely different game – which is both good and bad.

You play as Pigsy – a character you meet in the later part of Enslaved. This story (also excellent like the original game) takes place prior to the events of the main game and has Pigsy, romping around in his junk yard, looking for parts to build a

perfect companion.

In contrast to the lush greens of the first game, this one has a decidedly brown and rust tone to it. The graphics are amazing (and a good utilization of the Unreal engine) but the general tone of this DLC is different from the main event in a number of ways. Over the four to five hours you’ll spend on this you will mostly determine how to take out

enemies with strategic headshots or you might want to be stealthy and avoid them altogether.

This character plays very differently than Monkey, so it really does give the feeling of an entirely different game. If you were expecting more Monkey, you’re getting Pigsy instead and in my opinion that works just fine.

This DLC also has an option for playing in 3D. The best part? You don’t need an actual 3D TV to do so – you can use anaglyph 3D glasses (not included) and get the 3D effect on your standard 2D TV. That’s pretty cool.

Overall, it might not be Pigsy’s Perfect 10 – but it’s definitely a solid 7 and worth downloading if you have the original game. Again, if you don’t, go get it please. You won’t regret it.
