Bahn
Type: Survival Horror Skill Level: N/A
Players: 1 Available: October 2000

Following on the heels of the original blockbuster, Capcom sets out to deliver even more action and suspense as Regina and company return in Dino Crisis 2. The sequel will be set outdoors, in the lush detailed enviroments of the jungle, as players fighter to survive the constant attack of vicious dinosaurs (not as if they weren't already attacking you enough in the first one, no less).

The sequel offers a number of new enhancements, including the ability to hold two different weapons at a time, the option to play as two different characters, and more than 10 different types of dinosaurs. Naturally, there's always the fear that in lieu of many sequels - something gained, something lost. It's safe to say that this upcoming installment will be in good hands as Shinji Mikami, creator of the Resident Evil series and the orginal Dino Crisis title will be overseeing the project.

Look for more additional followups to be featured here as they become available, as well as screens (visual evidence of excellence always helps don't you think?)

  • Use two different weapons at one time - Players now have twice the firepower at their disposal upon deadly encounters.
  • More dinosaurs - Action was a bit stale for you at times in the original? Now you'll have ten different types of dinosaurs, each with their own unique AI
