    Me like!

    Kinda short but omg I do love the Unreal3 engine. Game does look very very good.

    Dual wielding weapons obviously.

    Dinosaurs :) Bloody raptors get annoying. Combat is fairly good, recoil on smgs was a bit much perhaps but shotgun ftw on raptors.

    DL now! I've always been a huge fan of the franchise. Well the older games anyway. They were pretty ground breaking and original back in the day. Lets hope the latest installment keeps with that ethos!

    Very average with some dodgy framerate at times.

    I liked it, its nothing spectacular, but dinosaurs are automatically cool, and killing one with a knife is even cooler :D
    The animation on the dinosaurs is great, the graphics are lovely (tho yeah, fps issues FTL), i can see it being a solid 7/10, good enjoyable fun but not outstanding. It should take up some time in th epost christmas lull at any rate
