Carnivores 2 is a very much anticipated improvement over the original game. However, the problems I had with the first one continue to be a problem with this one. Another complaint, is that the creators brought back all of the dinosaurs from the first one, except for two: Pachycephallosaurus and Triceratops. Two very iconic dinosaurs in thier own right. In their place are new ones: Ankylosaurus, Chasmosaurus, Spinosaurus, and Ceratosaurus. I myself would have preferred Pachy and Tric to return along with these new species, to make a total of eleven species. In place of the original environments, there are new ones. Here again, I was hoping the original environments, along with new ones, would be included. New weapons, which are not on the complaint side, are included, making for an impressive arsenal. The improvements over the original, namely more choices, in all categories, as well inclusion of choice of daytime, nighttime, or dawn, and better graphics make for a wonderful game experience. Being able to hunt more than one dinosaur, with more than one weapon, is an added bonus.

Carnivores was great. The sense of adventure, tension and general fun made it possibly my favourite PC game. But Carnivores 2? I always hoped they'd make a sequel, but, even though looking back at it it is a very enjoyable experience, I can't help saying that it was missing something that the first game had.
Maybe it's the sense of fiction in the first game. Sometimes, a fictional, imaginary looking setting is quite bad for a shooter games, but in Carnivores 1, it really did work, with the sky blue lakes, massive ferns and vibrant ground. In Carnivores 2, the settings are more, well, boring- being four times as big as the locations in Carnivores, it's just a chore having to trudge all the way up the uninspired, unimaginative woodland for a potential kill- and yes, the areas are all pretty much woodland, except for the odd sand patch here and there. This is all made worse on my computer since the water goes all weird when I turn on run mode, and I can't find any patches to fix this problem. This is presumably since I have windows XP, and the game is intended for 95 or 98. Carnivores 1 works fine on it, though. Weird.
Er, anyway, enough of that whining, onto the main attraction of the game- the dinosaurs. If you want a short summary here it is-they're great. Best dinosaurs I've EVER seen on any game,and I'm not kidding there. They do get blocky when you go right up to them, but, let's face it, when it comes to the game you aren't gonna have time to look at them close up- they'll either run away if herbivorous, or mall you if carnivorous. And the AI is, er, okay, even though it is a bit on the simple side, but thinking about it real-life dinosaurs would be too dumb to think out any advanced stealth strategies anyway. They are all perfectly animated and coloured, and the audio for the dinosaurs- and infact the entire game- is just great. Each dinosaur has its own unique call, and, as the dino gets bigger, its call gets scarier. I just wanted to wimp out and hide behind a bush the first time I heard the ceratosaurus roar. The only problem with the dinosaurs in the game is that hunting them can get incredibly frustrating- you just want to kick something when a chasmosaurus is in your line of sight, you're just about to make the final shot, and... it catches wind of you and runs off. This goes for all the dinosaurs, including the carnivores (although they will of course charge if you get too close); infact, the only dino not liable to run off like a ninny when smelling you is the T-rex, the true hard man-er, dinosaur- of the game.
The weapons are average. I can't really saying anything more than that. They aren't bad, per se, but they aren't fabulous either. They are all of the shotgun, pistol, sniper rifle sort.
Right, so, what it all boils down to is: is this game worth getting if you've already got the original game. For me, all it's pros overrule the cons, so, yes, I do recommend it to anyone interested.

This game is awsome!

This is a fantastic game, it lets you face up to the prehistorys greatest hunters. This game makes you use your brain, for example, when you gun fires it alerts all kinds of creatures some run whil some come for you as the hunter becomes the hunted. It has very realistic death scenes and every creature you kill is added to your trouphy room. To see a preview of this game go to [...] This is a grand game and I advize anybody thats likes to hunt to buy this game.

Could be much better

I've played this game for hours on end, and it is always a mixed bag. What is REALLY, REALLY annoying is how, when you're in a safe position on a hill or something, and you sound the dinosaur call, the critters all run away, no matter how aggressive you have them set to be. The graphics are primitive in a lot of ways too, like when you can see a dinosaur right through a rock, or one is swimming and it looks like it's in the clouds. It's a decent game, but could have been much better with a little more effort.

This is the most fun game I have ever played on the computer. The graphics are awesome. I do not hunt in real life because I have no desire to kill or hurt God's creatures, but this game makes it fun to stalk and bag wild dinos. The sounds you here are sometimes very eerie and what you see makes you feel like you are really there. I can sometimes sit for hours and play and completely forget about the time. The game is kind of a good tension release.

The game belongs to me.
