“Rare has gone and done it again. Dinosaur Planet<\/i> is looking every bit an RPG classic. Watch out, Link!”<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nfrom Official Nintendo Magazine issue 94 (July 2000)<\/p>\n

Dinosaur Planet<\/i>‘s one of those games that never saw release as it was originally intended, and there’s still a bit of a fanbase for it – people digging up old screenshots and materials, researching and interviewing and trawling up every last morsel they can of the game before its evolution into Star Fox Adventures<\/i>. Admittedly this kind of behaviour can get a bit tiresome – Sonic Xtreme<\/i> was neat and all, but it would’ve been a novelty at best, fellas! So many people clamouring over Dinosaur Planet<\/i> made me a bit embittered over it as well…
\n… but viewing these pages again wipes that all away. The screenshots can’t do it justice – that looks incredible for an N64 game. Even on inferior hardware the game was a beaut! Although this preview tells little of the character-switching dynamic between Krystal and Sabre, it sounds like a feature that could’ve been put to interesting use… had they gotten the development time they needed.<\/p>\n

… shit, count me in on the bandwagon. Star Fox Adventures<\/i> is a dodgy ride but a memorable one while it lasts, and seeing this only makes me wish the game could have been realised the way it was meant to be. Perhaps the combat wasn’t a total waste of time at one point in its development cycle!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
