What? I had a really bad case of writer's block. Plus, this answers a question Joe Step had on a blog about not enough fighting games featuring dinosaurs. Well, here you go Joe. Apparently, there was a Jurassic Park fighting game...with dinosaurs...that could fight at 76 Gas stations... and eat stray dogs for health for some discernible reason.*
...I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the game was probably bad. Really Bad.
*Apologies to dog lovers. I've nothing against dogs.
I reviewed a Jurassic Park dinosaur fighting game on the PSOne back in my Dallas Morning News days. I don't remember what it was called, though.
Congratulations! You've won a free pass to be in my tour group for the Pac-Man Museum! Go to my blog now to start the tour!
hmmm eating dogs for health, you say?
Musta been a Korean game. *
* Look, it's awful and it's ignorant, considering Koreans who do so eat wild dogs, not ones we know as pets here in the U.S., and which animals you should or shouldn't be allowed to eat is an arguably arbitrary, culturally-based decision if you're a carnivore or omnivore, but someone was gonna make that joke, and it may as well have been me.
As for the game, I mean, my older brother and I found a way to like Rise of the Robots as kids (though we thought it was broken when we found it in a bargain bin years later ... it wasn't, we were just blinded by awesome graphics as kids), so the fact this has dinosaurs fighting at all put it on my map.
I mean, I wouldn't give it a good score if I worked in games journo probably, but it looks like it's good to play with friends and booze.
Well, that's another game I didn't think existed. Wonder why dogs were chosen as the de facto health pickup.
