Note to Parents: Realistic violence, gore, horrorAn abandoned research complex on a remote jungle  island, a team of special forces operatives, a horde of vicious velociraptors, and one big, mean  Tyrannosaurus rex constitute the setting and cast ofDino Crisis, the latest masterpiece from the  makers ofResident Evil.You play as Regina, a member of a four-person team sent to retrieve an expatriate scientist. Your radio man  became a midnight snack for the T.rex, so it's up to you and your two remaining teammates to explore a  dino-infested research station, rescue the scientist, call for a helicopter retrieval, and escape with your lives.  Along the way you'll uncover the grizzly remains of those who got in the dinosaurs' way, and you'll unravel  the mystery of how a top-secret energy research project turned into a Jurassic nightmare.And about those dinosaurs: they're all over the island. One instant you'll be walking along a second-story  balcony, admiring the view, the next instant you'll be dodging a T.rex as it smashes its huge maw through  the concrete walls. Velociraptors chase you down blood-spattered corridors, flying reptiles circle the  outdoor areas, and your only weapons are your pistol, whatever else you can salvage, a dwindling supply of  ammunition, and your wits.Packed with clever puzzles and heart-pounding surprises, all superbly presented with realistic graphics and  horror-movie camera angles,Dino Crisisis a triumph of survival-horror gaming.--Mike  FehlauerPros:Great sound effects and musicWell-integrated, varied, and clever puzzlesAwe-inspiring, terrifying dinosaursBranching story line improves replay valueCons:Doors impervious to explosives
