Fight like and as a dinosaur!

 

Warpath: Jurassic Park was developed by Black Ops and published by Electronic Arts in cooperation with DreamWorks Interactive. This is the first fighting game that was inspired on dinosaurs from these movies "Jurassic Park" and "The Lost World"

All along the game you will fight as a dinosaur. And you will have the choice between 8 different dinosaurs and 6 other one that are hidden in order for u to discover.

Here are their names, Acrocanthosaurus, Giganotasaurus, Megaraptor, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Stygimolock, Suchomimus, Ankylosaurus and Styracosaurus.

If you would like to switch Dinosaurs just press "select" to pick and other one. Then you can you can restart as a new dinosaur.

Each dinosaur as there own introduction like any WWF Attitude wrestlers. Your dinosaur entrance can be  breaking down of a wood or electrified fences.

You will compete in 14 3D arenas in total. You will also find arenas that were in the movie like the Helicopter Pad one. In each one you will be able to eat different prey that are in the arenas like humans, sheeps and bears in order to increase your life line and give you more strength to fight.

You will find also obstacles that breaks when you touch them and that you can use against your opponent like throwing your the other dinosaur on a exploding oil drum to gave it more damage.

Make your dinosaur roar

You fight at night

Unfortunately it is not a hard game to play and no matter level of difficulty you select it will not take you long to go through it. The variety of move are not too complex either even though each dinosaurs has their own signature moves and about 30 moves each.

And fails to keep your attention for very long because there is no story or ending to give you satisfaction of winning. And since the game is too easy to finish if you play by yourself it will get repetitive soon.

But you will be able to play with dinosaurs that were design with the latest technology for the PlayStation called HMD ( Hierarchical Modeling Data). What it means is that the movement are well done and fluids so it gives life-like dinosaur movement to each of them. Erik Karber the "lead sound designer" and his team did a good job concerning the cry of each dinosaur. You will not have any problem with The design of the interface is nice to see because you have animated dinosaur walking in the jungle in the back of it to put you into the atmosphere and changes when you select different options.

Warpath Jurassic Park is a fighting game where you fight as and like a dinosaur so if you like dinosaur you will appreciate the way they have made them but do not expect a fighting game like Street Fighter.
