Dino Crisis 3

Dinos in Space (what no ninjas)

Overview

Dino Crisis 3 is the third in the Dino Crisis franchise from Capcom and developed by Hit Maker. Dino Crisis has traditionally been looked at as the poor developer's Resident Evil. Basically similar to play style as the Resident evil series but not as polished and a bit more action oriented.

Dino Crisis 3 takes a huge step away from the survival and cranks up the action. The game is set on the derelict space ship "Ozymandias". After the ships computer destroys you transportation, you are forced to enter the ship and investigate what dinos are doing in space in the first place.

To ratchet up the action, you are equipped with a jet pack. You can not freely fly but you can hover for a time and boost in all directions. You will also have an assortment of energy based weapons and a few types of homing missiles as well.

The core of the game is third person shooting. You will be dealing with many waves of dinos and a number of ominous bosses. The other main element is that the ship itself is one big puzzle. The ship sections actually can rotate and move. You have to find switches in the game to change the formation of the ship to progress though the ship and the story.

Although the game was visually impressive, it was heavily criticized for having "the worst camera ever" and its overuse of shiny metal surfaces. The impressive bosses and innovative puzzles are well constructed but most critics panned the title.
