An overlooked gem...

Carnivores 2 requires a little patience and appreciation for suspense, but it repays those qualities with solid gameplay and substantial replay value. Even after you've bagged every dinosaur in the game, you'll want to find bigger and better examples for your trophy room. A variety of weapons and terrains helps keep things fresh, and a serviceable game engine makes tromping through the past a pleasant experience. The graphics are decent, and the sounds are even better. Overall, playing Carnivores 2 is akin to watching a really enjoyable "B" monster movie. A few lingering bugs detract slightly from the experience, but they're rather minor. Highly recommended to dinosaur fans that don't object to the hunting/shooting aspect of the game and to hunting fans that don't mind becoming the hunted!

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.

Much Better Than The Original...

I know, I know...how can I give a hunting game 5 stars? Usually I wouldn't...I've never liked hunting games. But if you have to choose only one, choose this one. Carnivores 2 is far superior to any other hunting game out there, and is much better than the original. Let's face it...no deer or duck is ever going to charge you and eat you for dinner like the raptor does. It's fun hunting and being the hunted...the AI is actually very repectable. So what's better about part 2? First of all, there is support for EAX and A3D,as well as Direct 3D and 3DFX Glide. It makes all the difference! Secondly, you have more choices in terms of weapons...now there is a handgun, double-barrel shotgun, and the others from the original. The new hunting environments are excellent, and are littered with random dinosaurs going about there business. I'm a fan of games like Half-Life, so a hunting sim would never appeal to me. But Carnivores 2 is worth the hard drive space...and let's face it...the price is right!

That's right pray if you will survive a hunt in this game. I have purchased several hunting games but i soon became board with stalking creatures that i knew i would eventually hunt down and kill. or throw the box across the room because i couldn't find it again. But this game has an edge. You never know if ur being stalked though the dense mist or if the creature your following dosent spring out from the next tree and end your days as a hunter. There is no hunting game in the world that could compare to the wonderfull environments, chilling sounds, and dino grahpics. Like I said before this game is scary. I have found myself many times stalking a stegasourus or something only to be jumped by a raptor. sometimes i get a shot of but its over. im dino lunch. But nothing to me is more scary then looking at a dino in my sights and then from behind be here slow but ever lounding thunps that shake the ground. You can guess what happens next. Also the game allows you some type of career where you earn points. In the first game u just unlocked weapons and maps. In this one they are all open but require to manage you points wisely for each hunt.NOTE POINTS DO NOT GET USED UP ONLY DISTRIBUTED IN EACH HUNT TO AREAS U WANT THEY COME BACK AT THE END. Again the environments are great! Look out for giant walls, radar stations, abondend villages, stonehenge, and o yeah the jaws of a T-Rex! Enjoy

A real hunting challenge

I bought Carnivores and followed it up by buying Carnivores 2, and am waiting for Carnivores 3. What makes this hunting sim better than most is that unlike other hunting sims, in this one you're not gauranteed coming out alive. You have to be attentive. Play the wind the wrong way and your the hunted. Become careless on your approach, and the carnivore is on you before you can get of a shot. Walk in the woods without being alert, you're lunch. Challenge yourself in this game and you can feel the tension. It is easy to become bored if you're impatient. As a hunter I know full well that game just doesn't appear in front of you ready to be shot. You have to hunt. My average game can take fifteen minutes to one hour, depending on what I want to do. Play the game as it should be played by going for the biggest trophy herbivores or hunting the carnivores, and you'll enjoy the game alot more.

carinvores is the best

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.
