Jurassic Park: Rampage Edition is a revamped version of its predecessor, featuring similar gameplay with several changes, and a new story that continues from where the previous game ended.Īfter the events of Jurassic Park, Dr. It is the sequel to Sega's previous Jurassic Park video game, based on the film of the same name and also released for the Genesis. If that sounds like you, then Park it here.Jurassic Park: Rampage Edition is a 1994 side-scrolling video game developed by BlueSky Software and published by Sega for the Sega Genesis. Plenty of work for the thumbs, but none for the brain. This attempt to cash in on the movie's fame, however, is side-scrolling mediocrity. Jurassic Park was a great title on many platforms. Getting Grant past the dinos will take a lot of shootin' and scootin'. Raptors don't just roam aimlessly waiting to get shot - they pounce and slash at you. The controls seem difficult because the dinosaur A.I: in this game is faster and more lethal than it was in previous versions. The humans' and dinos' death yells are very similar, and many sounds were ported over from the first title, so don't expect much. The standard sounds won't send chills down your back. The backgrounds are nice but they're too reminiscent of other Genesis forests.

if they've been outlined in black crayon, making the game more cartoony. Though similar to the last title, the graphics lack realism. Progressing through the six levels as Grant, you pick up various weapons like a deadly Flamethrower that blackens beasts to extra crispy, a buckshot-blastin' Shotgun, and a Machine Gun. Guards are everywhere, shooting, running, and throwing bombs. Even worse, you face a nastier species this time: Humans. rex return, plus Gallimimuses that you ride in a fast side-scrolling stage. If you play as the Raptor, you have to get your eggs to safety (before someone makes a movie out of you). (They either want to breed the eggs or make a mighty big omelet.) In this game, you must stop the agents before they reach their goal, avoiding famished dinos along the way. The Park Never ClosesĪs Grant leaves Jurassic Park at the end of the first game, he sees InGen agents combing the area for dinosaur eggs. Betcha it's simultaneously released with the JP videotape in October.

Enough with the dinosaurs! JP: Rampage Edition is another ploy to keep you interested in prehistory.
