The four pack was on sale for $2.99 so I bought it.  If you believe the marketing, it's been total redone and is fun/better now.  I didn't know anything about it before them telling me that.  Watching the video, it's co-op/multi shooting dinosaurs with guns and bow/arrows and stuff.  A shooting killing fest, it appears.  Plus, skimming down, you can play as the dinosaurs.

Anyway, I have 3 left if anyone wants one.

It looks like I wasn't the only one buying four packs.  Seems everyone already has the game.

Actually, it's free to play right now, so it looks like everyone has it.

It's $.99 and if you say it's worth it, I'll give it a look or I'll take a copy if you're giving them out.

Is it like Dino-Riders?  Because I'd play the fuck out of a good game based on that franchise.

I think I had something from Dino-Riders when i was a kid.

It was T-rexs and shit with missiles, what's not to like?

The potential for a Turok crossover is irresistible.

It's not bad for .99.  It's along the same lines as Dungeon Defenders.  Increasing swarms of dinosaurs.  Except, instead of looting weapons, you buy new ones between rounds.  There is a timer, and of course the fighting happens about a 30 second run from where you buy the weapons.  So you pretty much have to know what you want because you don't have much time to shop.  If you lose all your health, you can 'fight to survive' like in Borderlands.  I think the medic class can heal you too.  If you die, you lose the weapons you have bought so far.  Bought weapons will run out of ammo too.  Pistol is the only infinite ammo weapon.  There is an energy generator that we are protecting.  The dinos try to kill it.  It goes off line when hurt and you have a time limit to get it back online.  There are some vehicles.  A tank, a buggy (like in halo) and an aircraft that looks like the ones in Avatar.  There might be more, those were all I've seen.  Oh, there was a mech suit that shot stuff and you wore like Ripply in Aliens.  You could also buy "Augments" but I never looked at those.  Was trying to learn the weapons in the 30 second shopping sprees I had.  There was no friendly fire in the games I was in.  Not sure if that's optional.

Over all, I got a Serious Sam vibe from it.  The way the dinos came in waves and just charged at you.  You were all like: Full auto rampage mowing dinos down.  Reload.  Repeat.  Except I don't think the weapons are as creative.  They were all space marine, halo type weapons.  Saw some sniper rifles, but I can't imagine they'd be any good.  There's no time to aim and snipe.  You just need tons of rounds down range.

Again, it's not bad for .99.  It would be lower on the list of games to play right now, I think.

Oh, by the way.  It's free to play all this week.  So try it, then decide if you want to buy it or get one of my copies.

I'm not going to try it for free. I'd rather be playing Mechwarrior or enjoying the last week of our Rust server.

Want to throw me a free copy? Great!

If not, I'll grab it for the 99 cents just in case it ever does become an option.
