King Kong PS2 Controls.
Peter Jackson's King Kong covers the basics in the game...how to control both Jack and King Kong, some pre-game tips, and other goodies that may help you on your journey.
Jack and King Kong
Jack and King Kong
Jack and King Kong are the two playable characters in the game. However, you'll spend roughly 85% of the game playing as Jack, and his stages always seem to be harder. Hence while it's important to learn how to play as both characters, the game necessitates that you learn how to play Jack well enough to get through a great deal of the game before you even get to use King Kong.
Playing as Jack Driscoll
Playing as Jack Driscoll
Playing as Jack is the first-person mode of the game. Jack's primary weapons are in the form of both firearms and Spears/Bones. Getting used to him is fairly simple, since he plays like many characters in many first-person shooters, et cetera, but since Peter Jackson's King Kong is multi-player and we lack the means to cover all of the platforms the game appears on independently, consult your instruction manual for exact controls.
Tips For Playing As Jack
1.) Ammo Conservation Is Key - Although you'll rely heavily on conserving your ammunition when you run through the game a second time in order to score big points, you'll want to conserve ammo on your initial run through the game as well. At times, ammo is in abundant supply and you won't need to worry about over-extending yourself at the most inopportune of times, but most of the time ammunition is in short supply. Because of this you'll need to be wise - supplement gun fire for Spear and Bone throwing when it's feasible, and also remember that your accompanying party can attack also (don't rely on them, but accept that they can do some damage, and should.)
2. Don't Rush - Rushing through the game is a futile endeavor, especially considering that much of the game takes place around pre-planned events and dialogue that you'll need to sit through in order to continue. If you go forward into an area without waiting for your party (unless the walkthrough tells you otherwise), you could be prime for enemy ambush. Instead, feel out your surroundings, allow your party to accompany you at all times, and pay attention to your surroundings.
3. Be Smart When Injured - Jack can't take much damage. As little as two hits from small enemies can do him in, and forget about the damage that he can('t) sustain when bigger creatures get to him. The health system in the game works in such a way that there is no energy but rather the screen turns darker shades of red the closer you are to death. In these circumstances, don't keep fighting unless you have to. Instead, try retreating to an earlier, already-cleared part of the stage, or take refuge anywhere you can until Jack has time to recover (which doesn't take long at all.)
4. Consciously Reload - Nothing is worse than being caught in a fight with a Pistol that has two bullets left in the magazine when you need four or five to kill the enemy running towards you. Because of this, you should reload your guns often. Even though the ammunition situation in the game is somewhat ambiguous at times, don't be reluctant to reload. Full magazines aren't used if your current magazine isn't yet dry, so you're not wasting any bullets. And to check on your ammunition situation at all times, check in your instruction manual to see the control to "ask" Jack how much ammo he has left. But ultimately, the point to be made here is to be actively conscious of having a loaded weapon. Whether or not you choose to use it (see point #1), it pays to be prepared.

5. Save Your Friends - Your friends are people too! But seriously, your party members can take damage; all of them are in some way susceptible to enemy attack and can take about as much damage as you can before expiring. And when they pass on, the stage ends. Therefore, keep a keen ear out for their screams and cries for help, and when you hear them, rush to their aid for they are likely being accosted by some sort of enemy. Even sacrifice a hit or two on your own character by drawing the enemy's attention away from your friend and onto you if it'll mean the ultimate longevity of the team.

Playing As King Kong
We don't get to play as King Kong an awful lot, and because of his immense strength and stamina we are able to blow through his stages as well. However, there is a certain proper technique when playing with King Kong that one must be mindful of. Relying solely on his fists to do the damage Jack relies on so many weapons for, we play the game a little differently with our friend the gigantic ape.
Tips For Playing As Kong
1. Be A Brute - King Kong is massive and strong, so you'll want to naturally use that to your advantage. With any small enemy, he will do absolutely devastating damage in one hit. Even with larger animals he can swipe at them and make them no more in a matter of nanoseconds. Don't be shy when using King Kong; attack, attack, attack, and be the aggressor! It's not until you fight larger animals like V-Rexes and the various military vehicles on the final stage that King Kong will actually be in any real danger... which is what brings us to point #2.
2. Be Mindful of your Health - It's a rarity indeed, but when King Kong sustains enough damage, even his screen starts to flash red, and believe it or not the big ape can die. While this'll likely happen only when fighting enemies like V-Rex, you'll nonetheless want to pay close attention to the damage sustained. Like Jack, a short times' rest will heal King Kong nice and good, but even against small enemies (like the flame-throwing native peoples of Skull Island, for instance), King Kong can take small doses of damage in a short amount of time. Always be mindful, and don't be ashamed to run away and rest if need be.
3. Fury! - King Kong's fury mode is an indispensable way to do absolutely massive damage to any enemy in the game. You'll want to reserve it most likely for the epic battles in the game, but because you can use it an unlimited amount, any time is really the right time to Fury. You'd be amazed how quickly King Kong can lay into a V-Rex in Fury mode. A battle that might otherwise take two minutes now takes ten seconds. Don't EVER overlook the Fury!
4. Carelessly Climb (Et Cetera!) - In other words, the game is essentially mapped out (with rare exceptions) to be friendly to King Kong's fits of jungle swinging, wall climbing, and things of this nature. By simply pressing the action button over and over again in conjunction with the appropriate direction on your joystick, King Kong will automatically perform feats that you may think you need to do more to properly accomplish. But don't be fooled! Almost the entire game, it's nearly impossible to mess up with King Kong at these parts (except when enemies knock him from midair). Don't be afraid! Unlike Jack, part of the fun of using King Kong is that he can rush!
5. When In Doubt, Destroy - At times (especially if you aren't following our walkthrough) you may be surprised to find out that you can get out of an area you can't seem to figure out how to escape from by simply destroying some debris, a door, or other obstacles. Sometimes, when you have Ann, it's simply a matter of putting her down and letting her set some thorn bushes on fire. Other times, it's a matter of simply moving a huge stone pillar or smashing through a wooden door. So if you get confused while using King Kong, simply look for things to destroy - it'll likely lead you to the escape you're desperately looking for.
Other Tips That May Help You
These are simply a couple of tips compiled as general to-do's if you get lost or stuck somewhere.
1. Explore - If you're lost, look around. Sometimes the next passageway you're looking for is beyond some debris, behind a waterfall, or beyond some thorn bushes. If it's the latter, simply look for a torch in or around the area, and with a Spear or Bone in hand (and on fire) light the thorn bushes on fire to clear the way.
2. Fire - Speaking of fire, grasses can also be lit on fire. This is especially useful when you want to kill enemies en masse without having to use your actual weapons. Thorn bushes usually have a reason to be destroyed, but not grasses (as they simply slow you down.) Because of this, when you see grass it's usually the game developer's hint to you that you should light it on fire, because who knows, some enemies might be taken down in the flames as well. Just look for torches in which to catalyze the fire, and then watch as it burns, baby!
3. Save - Saving after every stage via the in-game menu is pretty vital. This is because many things can happen. Your game can freeze up, you may need to leave suddenly and not have time to complete the next stage, or you just may not be happy with your current status on the stage. Or, as is sometimes the case, maybe you used too much ammunition and can't finish the stage with mere Spears or Bones, or you forgot something (like a weapon) along the way. Saving (like in all video games) is an important thing to do.
4. Friends - Your accompanying party members will always be able to help you out in ways you may not have thought. Remember how Hayes gives you a handgun in the beginning of the first stage? Well, you can ALWAYS ask your party members for their weapons, which range from Sniper Rifles and Shotguns to Spears and Bones. But it's essential that you do this from time to time, for working strategically with what you have will always work out best. In dire need of Hayes' Pistol after your firearm ran out of ammo? Just ask him for it. You need Ann's Spear to light a fire? Ask her for some help. Don't forget your party members are there for more than to be injured and to make the game harder. Their there to expand your experience, and at times make it even easier.
5. Kill - Whether you're using Jack or King Kong, leave no enemy alive. They can take you from the back when you least expect it, and at times the game won't even let you continue until all enemies are defeated. There's no reason to leave any dinosaur, insect, or sea creature (or ANYTHING) alive. If you don't want to waste ammunition but you think you can get past an enemy, then a Spear or Bone will probably do the trick. It's a good creed to live by - kill all you encounter.
