5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the Genisis gems, September 10, 2001
My first Video game system, the first game I bought was "Jurrasic Park" To this day I am still playing it. That shows how much fun it is. Jurrasic Park is one of the Genisis's lost gems that is quite possibly, the greatest Jurrasic Park game ever made. Warpath, the countless Game boy games and all the others have tried and failed to be as fun as this game. The premise is simple, play as Dr. Grant and escape the island while trying to avoid getting eaten. As the Raptor, fight to escape the island and reach the mainland. Each charachter is a lot of fun to play as. When you are grant you will traverse a river in a raft, romp through a volcano and more. As the raptor, you attack humans (So much fun!) eat compys and try to kill grant. Each charachter traverses through jungles, the power station, sewers, canyons and finially the visitors center. The graphics are outstanding, they still look good even today! The graphics for the dinosaurs are even more spectacular. You can see each blood vesel, every tooth, which means that these beasties are extreamlly lifelike. The raptors even learn from your actions and adapt in the later levels in the doctor grant stages! The music and sounds are also very good, with moody jungle music, exciting river music, and a very cool Visitors center track. The sounds of the dinosaurs are very good, they hoot, growl and roar (So realistically you will be terrified when you meet the T-rex !) Granted, this game is not without its problems. The main problem is dificulty. In the Grant levels, you have to fend off hords of dinos at once, figure out some nasty jumping problems and survive the final battle. The raptor's main problems is jumping. Some jumping sequences are very difficult to compleate (Especially in the nasty sewer level). The final battle for both charachters is extreamly difficult. With the raptors, you have to hit a certian area, which isint to hard after some experementing, but with the Dr Grant battle, its almost impossible to figure out what to do! It took me over 2 MONTHS to figure out what to do. Its that hard. Among the smaller problems is that there are no save points, so if you die only 1 step away from the end you have to go back to the begining (and the levels are very long) also the T-rex dosent show up enough. But this is still a classic game. Its reason enough to keep you genisis.The good: Excelent graphics, music and sound. A lot of fun to play
The bad: Can get hard. No save points, the T-rex dosent show up enough
And the ugly: The final battle and the river level are extreamly hard

Dino-Mite!!!!, July 20, 2001
Ahh, do you remember 1993? Geuss not, huh? Well, anyways, it's wasthe same year a amazing film came out called "Jurassic Park". Sega Genesis was also the biggest game system on the block. So why not put them together? Ah, my friend. They did. Indeed they did...Presenting JP on sega. this was a fun little game I played when I was a wee little lad. Ok, here's the basic idea: you either play Dr. Alan Grant, one of he many survivors on the island or you play ficious Velocoraptor, who is, well, hungry. Either way, you both have one mission...to get off the island alive. This game is great because the graphics are amazing and the sound is very realitic. Grant's movement is very cool along with his guns. The dinosaurs in the game almost look lik real ones, which makes the game so well done. But there are some flaws along the way. no saving points, weird tricks with the herbovores andit can get a little frustrating. But it is well done and is definately a game every Sega Genesis owner should have, espeacally with JP3 now out in theaters. THE GOOD: Very good graphics, playable charecters, good "cut-scenes", beautiful landscape, nice sound. THE BAD: Can be somewhat hard at times, herbovores act strange, no saving points????? T-Rex is bearly shown, Hard bosses. AND THE UGLY: Tour car, the t-rex attacks in a cut scene, is constantly changing (first, is shows a gas jeep, then it goes look like the tour SUV, then back to the jeep!!! Not really that important in the game, but just noticeable). overall, a good game
