Voice actor Richard Ridings gives a fantastic performance as Pigsy, and while I won't spoil the story, I will say that the events are fairly touching, and much deeper than they first appear. None of the levels included feel like obvious rehashes (except when appropriate within the context of the story) and the handling of the character elements themselves is top-notch. The new play style is quite enjoyable and adds welcome variety. Strangely enough, I think the content in this add-on is (in some ways) better than what players get on the retail disc. I have to admit that I was initially dubious this supporting character could hold his own, but all doubt evaporated almost instantly. Things like a powerful plant-able explosive, or a device which turns hostile robots into friendlies provide several opportunities for strategy-lite play.
To aid him in his efforts, he also uses a mechanical hand as a grappling hook, and can employ unique types of supplemental gear. Since Pigsy is weak and fragile compared to the melee-happy Monkey (the protagonist of Enslaved proper) he survives by sneaking around and slipping past enemy sentries undetected, or by taking the high ground and putting bullets in their head casings from a safe distance.
Rather than a simple character-swap or packaging up some unused levels from the cutting-room floor, Ninja Theory has created a brand-new play style incorporating minor stealth gameplay with a lot of sniping. The first thing that will strike anyone who's played through Enslaved is that Pigsy's action is totally different than what players got the first time around. The only answer, of course, is to go and get them. Unfortunately, several of the parts necessary to create artificial life are not on hand. The gist of the tale is that life in the post-apocalyptic junkyard is a little too quiet, and this rotund, greasy man craves some company. While greasy mech-head Pigsy plays an awkward third wheel to the protagonists in Enslaved's story, Perfect 10 takes the pork and places him center-stage.
Titled " Pigsy's Perfect 10", this downloadable content (DLC) costs 800 MS points ($10.00) and delivers a complete adventure with a narrative arc and Achievements that exist independently of the main campaign. The first (and likely only) add-on to Enslaved: Odyssey to the West is now available.
WTF Why aren't more pieces of DLC done as well as this? LOW Using the Pigsy Prod on a second-to-last attacking robot.
