I have heard of it. And even saw it for sale on Neo-Geo.com but what is it. Never played it before either.

Any one have screen shots of this game?

A side- scrolling shoot'em up (like Pulstar, Blazing Star)
nice graphics, easy gameplay, a little short...
It's MVS only, though

Yeah, Dinos are loose in the city and you fly a helicopter (horizontal shooter) to waste'em. Has some rescue elements too which are kinda cool. Dino's have that claymation/Primal Rage look to them as well. Decent shooter. And yes, MVS only. Still kinda spendy too.

I played it in Japan and liked it. It was a very beautiful game, with great animations and great music. I don't know if it's a rare beast in the world of the MVS, though.

Yea I was talking about Prehistoric Isle 2. I got a chance to play it now and it's really quite nice. I also played Prehistoric Isle 1930 I think it was called. That one just didnt quite cut it. But the second game was really a good game.

Just wish I could get ahold of one of those my self.
