Dino Crisis (ディノクライシス, dino kuraishisu?) is a 1999 video game developed by Capcom Planning Room 2 and released in 1999. Produced by Shinji Mikami, the game took inspirations from Resident Evil's RPG features such as item management and exploration. However, unlike other so-called "Resident Evil clones" that had been released since 1997, Dino Crisis instead relied on 3D environments as opposed to pre-rendered backgrounds, and a greater focus on physical puzzles to advance in the game. As horror-themed action-adventure gaming was still in its inception, Dino Crisis rejected the label of "Survival Horror" in Japan, which was seen as merely a tagline for Resident Evil. Instead it was marketed as "Panic Horror" to demonstrate its uniqueness. However, due to the dominance of Resident Evil over similarly styled horror games oversees, "Survival Horror" became accepted as the general name for the genre.
The game centres around a special forces team who must find a way to survive in a secret government facility that is being infested by time-displaced dinosaurs. While Dino Crisis did not achieve the same level of success Resident Evil did, it was popular enough to gain two sequels: (Dino Crisis 2 and Dino Crisis 3) and a light gun-based spin-off in Capcom's Gun Survivor series, known as Dino Stalker in America and Gun Survivor 3 : Dino Crisis in Japan.

There are only a small number of dinosaurs featured in the game, however some species have different forms that provide different levels of resistance to being killed, and do varying levels of damage.
You hear so much about Playstation games being ported across to the PC and flopping. With a few notable exceptions such as the Final Fantasy 's and more recently Metal Gear Solid, Playstation ports have, by and large, bombed so badly they'd make WW2 seem like a minor scuffle. So what about Dino Crisis? Is it any good or yet another in a long, long line of failures? Well, it's both. You see, Dino Crisis is actually a pretty good game. It was never going to set the world on fire, even when it was first released, but it is, nevertheless, an entertaining romp through a secret base filled with nothing but flesh-munching dinosaurs. But it also has to be said that this is one of the worst conversions I've ever seen.
The game itself is exactly the same: there would be no point in getting Dino Crisis for the PC if you've already got it on the Playstation. The story goes that some months ago an undercover spy discovered a scientist (mad, naturally) who was previously presumed dead. Said scientist, Dr. Kirk, had been working on an alternative energy source called the "Third Energy" which would solve the world's pollution problems. The only problem is that the project had been cancelled after a disaster caused the deaths of over 150 people involved in the project. You and your team have been sent out to expatriate Dr. Kirk. You quickly find out that Dr. Kirk's creation is unstable, and has caused a shift in time, thus enabling lots of dinosaurs to come around and tramp through the base like they owned it, cheeky blighters. The storyline, although basic, is better constructed than the average garden-variety shooter. There are a few points where you can choose to go one way about solving a problem or another, and the paths branch widely enough to give three different endings.
What the game plays like depends on the decisions you make. Go with Gail and you'll spend most of your time blasting (or running away from) the dinos; go with Rick and you'll be solving puzzles instead. Combat is pretty simple but works quite well. Although there are only three different weapons in the game you get little upgrades along the way, which make them more powerful. You can also make stun darts by mixing ingredients in your inventory which knock out the dinosaurs rather than kill them outright. For some reason these are fired from the shotgun rather than the handgun. The enemies also possess some kind of intelligence, although they're not hyper-intelligent - after all, they are dinosaurs. One of their favourite tricks is to play dead, and when you try to get past they'll knock you over or grab a good mouthful. Another problem is that even if you choose to do the puzzles rather than combat you'll still run very low on ammo, causing you to run away from enemies rather than taking them on which, let's face it, is the whole point of having them there in the first place.

A while back, Stefano Cagnani shared a pretty cool short fan remake of Dino Crisis 2 in Unreal Engine 4. This free demo recreates the environments and dinosaurs from Dino Crisis 2 in a 3D third-person game.
With the success of Monster Hunter: World and Resident Evil 2 Remake, it seems like now would be the perfect time to release a survival horror game full of dinosaurs. Unfortunately, last we heard, there were no plans for either an official remake or new Dino Crisis romp.
Naturally, that level of success prompted a sequel, with Dino Crisis 2 launching on PS2 in 2000. Again, like the Resident Evil series, Dino Crisis 2 moved away from the horror-esque elements of the series to become more like an action-adventure game. Players were even rewarded for murdering dinosaurs in succession with Extinction Points, which would allow the player to purchase new, more powerful weapons.
Disclosures: This game was obtained via paid digital download and reviewed on the PC. Approximately 80 hours of play was devoted to multiplayer modes, and there is no offline option available. 2ff7e9595c
