Jurassic Park has excellent graphics for snes game especially when you switch to the vision goggles, the music is great and the dinosaurs look fairly realistic for video games. It builds a lot of suspense because you never know when a dinosaur, T-rex or raptors, might pop up at you.

Jurassic Park is pretty Chalaging i kid you not. It is also fun to. If you want to beat this game in one day or several hours get the cheat codes from a place called Gamewinners.com. This is a pretty cool game.

This is a cool game! There is a top-down perspective when you're exploring the outside area. When you go in buildings, it switches to a 3D first-person perspective. Graphics in this game are quite good. The dinosaurs look extremely good. But the sweetest thing about this game is the sound...in FULL DOLBY SURROUND SOUND! Not many games on the SNES had surround sound (the only other game I can think of that does is Super Turrican).

This game could have been a lot worse, but is definitely not a first reccomendation. For one thing the first-person view indoors is not very good, but that is not the worst part, because the gameplay is not bad. The biggest disappointment with the game is that you spend hours beating it, doing all the objectives in order, and you get the worst, most disappointing ending in video game history. A black screen that simply says "you have escaped from jurassic park" Gee, thanks feelas, we didnt know thats what it meant when we got in the helicopter and flew away.

As the first game in my SNES game collection, I had high hopes for it as I loved the movie it was based on. It uses a top down perspective while walking around the island and uses a 3D look a la Doom when exploring the various buildings and caves while offering you multiple weapons to use. It uses the likenesses of the dinosaurs and some of the main characters that appeared in the movie. The graphics, sounds and music are spot on and help you get into the game. It controls very easily and you get used to quickly. So why do I give this game 3 stars?

First off, this is a VERY LONG, exploratory and adventure game. The island is huge and you have to explore caves and buildings, which in its own, eats up a lot of time. Aside from figuring out which weapons to use against which dinosaurs, your memory skills will be tested as the game offers no hints as to which direction you should do or how to complete tasks. No map system is available while underground or in buildings so you'll get lost plenty of times. You start out with 5 lives and have infinite continues but no password or save system is available. If you intend to beat this game, you'll have to do it in one shot. After you finished all the objectives, you head back to the helipad. There, you get treated to the game's ending: the intro presentation of landing on the helipad when you first start playing....in reverse.

And that's it. It took me almost 4 hours to beat it and after seeing the game's ending, I was so disgusted that I went to my local game shop and sold it for some $$$. Bottom line: it's not worth it for the time and effort you spend on playing or beating this game.

Wow, this game arrived two or three days after we ordered it. It was in perfect condition. We've been playing it ever since, and have enjoyed the bonding moments as a family. It has been years since we played this with our kids. The game is great, and the service was FANTASTIC.

this game is very challenging!it takes some getting used to but it's very fun to figure everything out.great graphics.

It's just the best game I've ever played! It features nice 2D/3D Graphics, RPG , action + adventure. A must have!

Why do I rate this game 1 star? There are several reasons. First and foremost, there is NO SAVEPOINT. In short, you'll have to beat this game in ONE SITTING. Talk about patience. The second major problem that I have with this game is that it is trying to do too much. It is a top-down shooter AND a first-person shooter. The graphics in the top-down mode are fine, but the graphics and textures in FP mode are DREADFUL. Doom has FAR better variety, texture-wise. Personally, I got headaches after playing in FP mode after 30 minutes--and remember, you can't save. So the bottom line is this, if you want to kill dinosaurs, I'd recommend Jurassic Park for the old NES and the Carnivores series for PC. N64 has a Turok the Dinosaur Hunter series out. Pass this game, you'll be glad you did.

Overall I think this is a pretty fun game for something on the system. Though at some point it is impossible to go on because of the card key. But at this time there might be some guide for that hidden item. But it is still quite fun.
