Product Information

Immerse yourself in an exciting Australian outback adventure when playing the classic Krome Studios Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 3: Nght of the Quinkan game. In this third installment of the popular Nintendo PSP GameCube video game, Ty is tasked with reassembling a disbanded group of warriors in order to save his homeland, Southern Rivers, from the alien Quinkan invaders. Helping on this important mission are Shazza, his girlfriend, and their mutual friend, Fluffy. The main villians of the fun GameCube game adventure, who must be defeated by Ty, are the Quinking and Boss Cass, who also wishes to rule over Southern Rivers. While stories one and two of Ty the Tasmanian Tiger were created by the well-known producer of many popular digital games, Electronic Arts, SONY turned to Kronos Studios for its third installment of the series. Kronos comes through with a slightly tweaked gameplay experience that ups the level of difficulty a notch or two. Some cheats may be available, but with a rating of Everyone E10+, the game is relatively easy to understand and enjoy for both young and older players. Ty the Tasmanian Tiger games are designed for playing on GameCube, Playstation 2, Game Boy Advance, and Xbox platforms. Although this is a vintage title, these games are more advanced than those offered on the old NES systems. This game runs best on systems compatible with Playstation 2 and the Xbox universe of gaming systems. Due to Microsoft’s updated compatibility of hardware and software, you can often play older games such as this one on an Xbox One or Xbox 360. Alternatively, PS2 games are not typically compatible with PS3, PS4, Wii, or Wii U systems. However, ongoing improvements to backwards compatibility issues may resolve this issue. You may have more success with compatibility if you own a Gameboy Advance compatible Nintendo DS system. Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 3 follows the same story formula found in the two popular prequels. Most of the action takes place in the Outback, and Ty uses his trusty boomerang as his main weapon. At the beginning of the game, you are offered several choices of how to enjoy the experience. If you enjoy playing games that give you options for subtitles, sound, camera, screen, and control operation, this is right up your alley. Like many Playstation games of this era, the characters and background scenery have an early 3D look that gives gameplay lots of screen depth. The colors are rich but not overwhelming to the eye. The high-quality voice narration brings each character to life, and most characters speak English without an accent. Tye, however, has a strong Australian accent. There’s lots of intense fighting in this action-oriented game, and you’ll need lots of powers to defeat the enemy. Luckily, you can visit several shops to find a wide range of awesome boomerangs, which offer 1,000 customization variations. Earning points to obtain Bunyip Stones is also a big part of your quest to defeat the Quinkan. Use your energized Tasmanian Tiger power to battle the enemy on the ground, and then hop into a Gunyip figher jet to face the alien armada in the air. Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 3 is one of those vintage video games you’ll have hours of fun playing.
