I think Jurassic Park: scan-command is awesome because you can scan barcodes and download new dinosaur attacks! It's as if I could control a velociraptor or whatever. I think it deserves an A++!

I think Scan Command is great! Scan Command is greater than I thought it was. I thought That I was suppose to scan bar codes for dinosaurs but now I know that I`m suppose to scan bar codes for DNA. Scan Command is one of my favorite Jurassic Park games.

One major flaw hoax: READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!

I bought Jurassic Park Scan Command, and I am having a blast with it. Just a few minutes ago, I read a review for this game that said there was a major flaw in the game, because you couldn't reset the scanner and be able to scan barcodes that was scanned before. WRONG! There is a way. If the reviewer would have taken the time to read the instructions carefully, if not at all, they would know that there is a reset button on the back of the scanner. It is made for reseting the scanner after it has frozen, but if you press it (you have to use a pencil point to press it), it will reset the barcode history, and you can scan barcodes again and again. This is why you READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!

One major flaw!

Everything about this game is great except for the one major flaw that made me give this a rating of one star. I have bought this game for my two sons. The oldest used it first and played through it and had a great time with it (of course I needed to get a very good graphics card to make the dinosaurs look good). My other son was excited about it and started a new game for himself. Here is where the disappointment came. Most of the bar codes that we tried to scan kept saying "already scanned" and would not accept them. I looked everywhere for instructions to reset the scanner but could not find any. I finally got in touch with tech support and they said there was no way to reset the scanner. I could not believe it! Now it is hard to find bar codes around the house that was not scanned for the first game. It gets so frustrating that my son quit trying. I felt soooo bad for him but I was not going to buy another Scan Command to line the company's pockets. Was this planned? It would be perfect if you could reset the scanner. The tech support guy I talked to said it is a downfall of the product! This is such a bad flaw that it ruins the product!

As much as my son and I enjoyed the graphics and game play the scanner idea was flawed. Scanning Barcodes are not nessary with the scanner. We found that running the scanner accross the computer screen was just as helpfull has trying to scan barcodes. The game is good if you have the time to mess with the scanner and getting the "codes" into it.

This game is absolutely amazing!!!

For all my computer gaming years, I've been looking for a game just like this one! For any kids looking to buy a game like this, take it from me: GET THIS GAME NOW. The graphics are great, the battles aren't all bloody, which I enjoy, and the plot is really cool. Basically, you are a dino agent, and you're on a mission to Isla Sorna to save some kids who accidently stumble upon it. But then, you discover a British scientist, Dr. Corts, is using different DNA to create a team of super-dinosaurs in her plot to take over the world. Using a scanner that scans barcodes, you pump up a team of dinos that includes Spino, Trex, Anky, Tricera, Raptor, and Stego. Like I said before, this game is fabulous. Buy it!!!

I recently purchased Scan Command and found it to be quite confusing to both play and download. The instructions are limited at best and don't go into detail. I was frustrated at how difficult it is to "prepare" the scanner, just to get ready to play the game, which I never got to do.

Good game but needs better manual

This is a very good game, but make sure you read the manual on the CD in the Support/Manual folder. Don't forget to fill in the spaces for the Body and Rest functions. The scanner will time out and give you a command/DNA if you wait long enough, even if you do not scan anything.

The JP scan command is a fun game wit hmany "levels" and a lot of action. But the graphics aren't that good, and the instructions stink, you learn by playing. But I reccomend it to any one who likes dinosaurs, or JP.
