Wasn't there a Dinosaurs survival game for the PC where you play a human that got funded by kickstarter someone help me because I'm drawing a blank on the name. It looked pretty bad ass

 

[Hot Coldman]

What about 'Billy and the Clonosaurus'?

What was he thinking...

 

[DigitalDevil]

Or wait, I want an updated version of Trespasser.

This, so much. I still hate to think of the potential this game had. Every time I do, I reinstall it thinking "maybe this time it will work". It never does.

 

[Mumei]

hur dur i'm an old dromaeosaurid i look like a hairless tiger and an ugly snake fell into a blender, kids think i'm the coolest thing ever *farts*

look at this suave ass motherfucker

He's so suave~

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

...and another right on cue.

 

[B.K.]

thought the thread was about this making a comeback:

Too bad they

Spoiler

killed all the characters in the final episode.

It can never come back!

 

[AAK]

Where are my science approved feathered Dinosaurs?

Sure, but using Crash Mccreery's amazing Jurassic Park art isn't fair either, haha. I bet he would do feathers just as much justice.

 

[Toa TAK]

Dinosaurs are making a comeback?

It's about time. Hopefully more will come back with feathers.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Feathers can be awesome:

"Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD" (PS3) - September 10, 2013
Trailer (which is strangely beautiful and will likely make you feel guilty for shooting Dinosaurs)- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6TRA6_Kwyk&hd=1



Shoot em. Tranq em. Observe em. The choice is yours for only $12.99.

Oh man I remember this game. For some reason it never let me upgrade the guns meaning I had to everything with the basic equipment. Really fun though. Hope an expansion comes out for this new one.

Edit: Oh man I just realized this came out today!

Me too such a great show!

 

[Thatonemoor]

Add Feathers or I don't care.

 

[MattKeil]

I need my goddamn feathers.

There was a time T rexes walked like a guy in a suit in every single deciption ever, books, movies, toys, you name it, science stepped and corrected such egregious mistake, and now those deciptions look outdated and dumb, its the same with feathers now, except that no one is doing anything about it.

Science didn't "step in," science advanced. The tail-dragging dinosaurs of old were based on scientific consensus at the time. The advantage of the updated versions used in Jurassic Park is that they made them look cooler and more dynamic, and allowed them to do more within the story. Feathers are too associated with birds to look cool in the same way or do anything other than make an otherwise fierce predator look like a goofball.

Dragons will always look cooler than birds, so it doesn't surprise me that the filmmakers are probably going to ignore the feather advancement of recent years. It's a bit of an insult to the legacy of the series considering the first book and first movie did much to introduce the public to the new (at the time) scientific depiction of dinosaurs, but I believe that mainly happened because the updated information was cinematically advantageous.

 

[Hellsing321]

If they're not coming back in Pog form I don't care.

 

[Blearth]

how dare you get my hopes up

Expected the same

 

[Toparaman]

YES! Enough with the zombie shit.

 

[BigJonsson]

Damn you, got my hopes up for NOT THE MAMA!

 

[crazy monkey]

fuck you feathers.lie.

 

[Anticitizen One]

Between this and Episode 7 im in heaven

 

[Branduil]

That part made no sense. How the hell was he seemingly injured by the Spinosaurs when he ran out of the woods in the first place?

Nothing in that movie made sense.

 

[yogloo]

Chickens never left.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Still not enough Dinosaur love.

 

[yogloo]

Chickens

 

[DBT85]

Good. Dinosaurs are fascinating and cool.

 

[belushy]

Yep!

Also, it isn't an AAA game or anything, but The Stomping Land was a pretty neat Kickstarter video game that was funded. The dev believes he could get a alpha/beta out to people by the end of the year.

[Hurley]

Man, I remember the whole dino craze during the 90's, was a great time to be a kid imo

Collecting these was awesome

I never got to finish my T-Rex model that came with the magazine though.

 

[jett]

Not the momma!

 

[Randdalf]

That Walking with Dinosaurs movie is a disgrace, literally nothing to do with the original series whatsoever.

 

[modnar]

how dare you get my hopes up

Not the momma!

 

[Valnen]

As long as they don't have feathers I'm cool with that.

 

[Scoot2005]

TURRRROOOOKKKK!!!!

 

[thelatestmodel]

As long as we get less zombie and superhero movies, that's fine with me.

 

[Robot Pants]

I want a GOOD Turok reboot. And wtf is this Dino transformers shit

 

[Valnen]

As long as we get less zombie and superhero movies, that's fine with me.

But superhero movies have been very good in recent times!

 

[fanboi]

THEY ARE ALL DEAD

 

[Wag]

Netflix has plenty of dino docs, especially the "Walking with" ones if you're into that sort of thing. Lots of fun.

 

[Kinyou]

Walking With Dinosaurs 3D has some:



I really hope JP4 will also.

I thought all dinosaurs would have feathers. Is it just some?

Or are they just trying to ease us in by keeping classics like the triceratops featherless?

 

[bengraven]

Fuck
Yes.

I love dinosaurs so much.

Hollywood likes to run in trends. I'm waiting for the Westerns to return but I think Lone Ranger set it back another 15 years at the very least.

If there was a world where dinosaur and western films were more popular than remakes and superhero movies, I want to live there right now.

Primal Carnage

I can never read the title of this game without mentally removing the C, first A, and N in "Carnage"

 

[imBask]

fuck you feathers.lie.

1- Denial
2- Anger
3- Bargaining
4- Depression
5- Acceptance

you're in between 1 and 2

 

[Chuckie]

...this made me sad.

 

[the chris]

Felt bad for this dude though.

I feel like this guy got it worse:

 

[Edag Plata]

You forgot the ones ushering in this comeback:

 

[Mdk7]

#FUCKYEAH

 

[ZeroCypher]

Dinosaurs are the new zombies. Wait until someone decides to make dinosaur zombies.

 

[kottila]

Wasn't there a Dinosaurs survival game for the PC where you play a human that got funded by kickstarter

I'd play that

 

[canoli2006]

Thread title led me to think the tv show was getting a reboot. Got scared for a second.

 

[Necromanti]

I'm still awaiting something that explores the horror that is the "terrible bird" (rather than a "terrible lizard", showcasing just how scary and vicious feathered dinosaurs can be. I mean, birds can be downright evil. I feel it adds a new level of terror.
