    it helps infinitely to have notes on when there's gonna be a raptor to your right or left that you can't see when you open a door.

    i also really liked the lost world game for genesis. it was top-down and i beat it... but i really couldn't tell you at all what the game played like. i should try and find a copy (or at least a youtube video to see that i'm not horribly wrong)

    There was a pretty decent JP3 arcade game, too, but the only youtube video of that one is from a cabinet where the light guns don't work. :/

    Oh it was. You started the game as a fish and could eventually evolve into a human though I think I ended the game as some sort of terrible flying monster with pointy teeth and claws.

    Highlights of the game include:
    -Being a dinosaur
    -Killing dudes
    -Evolving based on how you killed dudes

    Zoo Tycoon Dinosaur Digs was also the best Jurassic park simulator ever.

    I just found it on GIS, but now I've followed the links and I guess you can get it from the artist here:

    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23756899

    Doesn't seem to be available in poster size though, only 11"x14". EDIT: Oh, and it's sold out

    I almost liked the original JP arcade game better. I doubt anyone will remember this in detail, but it was 6 player X-Men era, and instead of lightguns, it had joysticks with triggers. You had an on-screen reticule and it was on-rails. There were some awesome levels where you would be chased by a TRex (whilst in a Jeep), and in order to prevent him from fucking you up you had to hit 5-6 identified spots on it within a certain amount of time.

    It was awesome.

    ...I thought I was the only one. That game ruled. Proof: there are dinosaurs with sunglasses and leather jackets in this game. Not quite flying an F14 but it was 1993.

    fuck

    I fucking loved this game

    immediately thought of this game when I read the thread title. This game was fun and pretty tough from what I remember.
