    That makes us two.

      Aha, so there's still optimists left. I have my own reasoning, but I won't reveal anything essential now or discuss it that much as it has a key role in a The Column writing which is still awaiting to be published, so I don't want to spoil.

          I doubt whether we will ever see this thing finished...

            I would be amazed if this game ever saw the light of day again.

            It sounded rubbish anyway IMHO.

              I maintain that if someone comes up with a good way to make a strategy dinosaur game that Firaxis would make it beginning tomorrow. Dinosaurs are one of those things that fascinate everyone - it would be a guaranteed winner like civ was. People that have no idea about games or this developement would be intrested in purchasing the game. It will just take an idea to get this started. So does anyone have a good idea?

                  If you are looking at it from a "big crunch" point of view (the theory, not the poster ),
                  then they will, otherwise i still doubt it.

                    Dinos is dead... a shame really. I think he'll continue with the Firaxis/EA Sim series (i.e. SimGolf et al., not The Sims and Sim City from Maxis/EA)

                      Yeah, I'm waiting for Simsville to come as well
                      I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

                        Yes, that's why there are dozens of great dinosaur games out there. This game will never come out.

                          Want to point me in the direction of some.

                          I know of Sim Life and Turok: Dinosaur Hunter. Oh and the Jurassic Park based games. What other dinosaurs games have their been?

                            It seems to me he was being sarcastic, hence the ...

                            About the only game with dinosaurs I played was Evolution. But after about half an hour playing I started yawning so hard, I almost fractured my jaw.

                              Which proves my point. Simlife is about whatever animals you wish to create. Turok and the Jurassic Park games could just as easily have had demons, robots or aliens substituting for the dinos, and it wouldn't have made any difference.

                                Ok, I think understand what you meant now but the problem is that you didn't understand what I was saying. I was mentioning that not because I thought that Firaxis would release the dino game just that once anyone came out with an exciting dinosaur game that it would be a winner. It is one of those things that everyone would be interested in. But the whole problem is that it is hard to have a fun idea for a dino game. So whoever comes up with a way to make the game first will be rich with a highly successful game.
