    it was an okay fight.

    Outside of visuals, i kinda liked the xbox boss fight better. they just couldn't mechanically do that boss fight on the wii. because the gun you use doesn't exist int he wii version and space or something.

    you guys have no idea how fucking crushed i was playing the 2008 Turok.

    The demo was awesome. it was hiding from dinosaurs, killing dinosaurs, running from dinosaurs.

    And then most the game was shooting dudes.

    I can shoot dudes in like, 90% of all video games.

    I can't fucking shoot dinosaurs in like 5% of them.


    sorrrrrrryyyyyyy

    Way late, but did you seriously work on this game?

    Did no one stop to think "hey maybe this dinosaur game should have less corridor shooting?"

    I can't blame you personally for its failures, but man, so disappointed.

    I really would like to see a Dino Riders game. I guess it would be a third person shooter of some sort. I don't care if it's generic as hell. Riding around on Dinosaurs, shooting things with laser beams is really all I need.

    I completely forgot about Dino D-Day. Does anyone here actually play it? Is it worth buying? I remember being exceedingly stoked for it...

    it seems to me that there are two basic kinds of dinosaur video games, the design a dinosaur zoo game and the action shooter game

    how about this: they are the same game

    you design an elite safari park for the super rich on an island in the pacific where they go to play the ultimate game: dinosaur hunting

    but when anti-rich hippie terrorists detonate a sonic bomb on the island that shatters all the fences, the game gets real

    play my twine game about dracula IF YOU DARE

    i like giant bomb, i can understand not liking them though.

    Also, primal rage 2 sounded nuts.

    though, also really dumb.

    I just want more dinosaur games.

    I liked heavy rain. but nothing is going to make me play that again

    Heavy rain's controls really made me not finish it.

    (in fact I do not think i got far at all)

    I couldn't handle the excitement of making my son orange juice.

    everything i read said "heavy rain like controls"

    maybe that just means you hit X to call out for people.

    Somebody should make a dinosaur based tactical shooter, X-Com or Silent Storm style. Outsmarting raptors and taking down T-Rexes and shit.

    sometimes you drive a tank.

    Well, controls like you are anyway.

    Oh man, I totally had this game on PC, except it was called Caveman Ugh-Lympics - and one of the events always crashed, I think it was the pole vault. It was probably a pirated copy so I'm not all that surprised.

    Edit: Somebody should make an XBLA version of this game, or something similar. I wish I had art skills so I could make these games myself :(
