I would give Carnivores 2 a slightly lower quality rating than the original Carnivores. I can see now why original Carnivores is a better seller than Carnivores 2. The main problem with Carnivores 2 is that the dinosaurs are either too sensitive or too aggressive, more so than in Carnivores 1. The result of this is that either they can climb up steep cliffs giving the player hardly any protection places or else they run away too quickly at the slightest sight of the player. Luckily there's an edit file for modifying sensitivity in running away which helps improvement of play, but it doesn't do any good in lessening aggressiveness. Another fluke is the sun would glare in the eyes making it hard to see; Carnivores 1 didn't have this feature. The positive side of Carnivores 2 is that the 3D graphics are just as good as the original, and some cool new dinosaurs added. If you want to play this game successfully then just hunt the herbivores.

Carnivores 2 requires a little patience and appreciation for suspense, but it repays those qualities with solid gameplay and substantial replay value. Even after you've bagged every dinosaur in the game, you'll want to find bigger and better examples for your trophy room. A variety of weapons and terrains helps keep things fresh, and a serviceable game engine makes tromping through the past a pleasant experience. The graphics are decent, and the sounds are even better. Overall, playing Carnivores 2 is akin to watching a really enjoyable "B" monster movie. A few lingering bugs detract slightly from the experience, but they're rather minor. Highly recommended to dinosaur fans that don't object to the hunting/shooting aspect of the game and to hunting fans that don't mind becoming the hunted!

This game ... Its got really good graphics I encourage you to buy it. Im dead serious!!! Don't get second thoughts about this game. GET IT!!! A S A P!!! ~*~I gots to go~*`

Great graphics, Great realistic dinosaurs, Great Weapons, Great price, Nuf said.

This game is just as fun as I remember it. The disc played well, and I was able to return to a land I thought previously lost. 5 out of 5 for simplistic fun and nostalgia.

This game I find pretty amazing. The creators took the strategy of hunting, and implemented it into a future of dinosaurs. Seriously, how epic can it get? Sure, the dinosaurs run away easily. That just adds to challenge. When you see the dinosaur and it starts running, as soon as you give chase to it you think 'This thing is mine, it's only a matter of time!'. And it is! And if you need to deal with a carnivore, the blood starts pumping. Even seeing an Allosaurus can really get you moving, pulling out your pistol and smashing through a couple of rounds. It's intense, and the game makes the awards worth it! Bigger guns, more special equipment, new hunting grounds. I haven't even tried the second of 5 hunting grounds yet, and I've had this game for about a week now! This game is amazing for its time, and I'm so glad I bought it. If you're a fan of dinosaurs, and like first person shooters, I would highly recommend this game!

If you like hunting games then this game is for you!Its not just a 1st person shooter where you kill dinos left and right, you have to do some work.The down sides of this game are you run super slow and the birds are so loud you cant hear yourself think.BUT,overall this is a very fun game that will make you want more!!!!!!!

This would be a good game if the dinosaurs acted, well, like dinosaurs. Instead the game is set up to make them act randomly and contrary to instinct. For example, using the dinosaur call to attract carnivorous dinosaurs often makes them run away in fear! But in the next game it draws a whole herd of them. Another example: when pursuing an aggressive, carnivorous dinosaur through the water, the creature will ignore the call and swim out of range, but then follow you back to shore when you give up the chase. Finally, the "vulnerable spots" on the dinosaurs do not always work. I have emptied a full clip from the 9mm into an allosaurus' head, which the game says is its weak spot, and it keeps coming. Other times, tho, a single shot from the same weapon into its back brings it down! I found the game frustrating and very boring.
