Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Review (minis)

Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter is a dynamic hunting simulation game which lets players explore huge non-linear locations as they attempt to track down a variety of dinosaurs that are armed with advanced AI – these are dangerous creatures that are able to see, hear and sense the hunter. If you’re not careful, it’s very easy for the hunter to become the hunted.

With 15 different dinosaurs across 5 distinct environments including pine forests, muddy marshes and rolling hills, how you approach your target is important. Wind direction, scent and the use of a special dinosaur call are all key elements in tracking your prey.

Game Features:

* Interactive 3D dinosaurs, from the Herbivorous (plant-eating) for novice hunters to the Carnivorous (meat-eating) for experts;
* Choose from among 6 weapon types – from a sniper rifle to an X-bow;
* Utilize the map and radar feature to locate and track dinosaurs;
* Exciting hunting: a non-linear hunting experience where players roam through vast landscapes, tracking and hunting a variety of dinosaurs;
* Interactive Dinosaur Trophy Room

Atlus has reason to celebrate: Catherine sold 200,000 in a week!

After they told us that “Catherine can boast the largest launch in the 20-year history of Atlus” and that the game “has exceeded our highest expectations”, we now can see why they’re so happy. The game sold 200,000 copies in a single week which puts it as one of the best selling Atlus releases in a while. Hope the game sells another 200,000 before the year is over so we can continue to get new IP from the fine folks at Atlus.

CoD4 Patch Coming Soon

fourtwozero has this to say on the Infinity Ward forums:

Well I’m back from GDC, sorry for the lack of direct updates from me last week as my internet access was limited while in San Francisco. I did want to let you guys know however that the PS3 Feature Patch for Worldwide users (except for Japan and Korea) is starting it’s certification process.

It finished up internal QA at Activision today and is making it’s way to Sony so I probably won’t make the official “Hooray we’re in cert on PS3″ post till tomorrow but I wanted to let you guys know that it’s on it’s way there. The great news is that both the US and Worldwide versions of the patch are going to cert at the same time so no one should be left waiting while the others are going through cert.

This patch includes all the new features we’ve talked about such as Quick Mute, Additional Kill Cams, Recently Met Players, Sniper Rifle Improvement, Acog Scope Improvement, more Spawn Points, general connectivity optimization, etc.

Sounds cool. I’m especially looking forward to the mute capability.
