Dino D-Day Review (harris)
A fantastic shake-up of an older and overdone genre, Dino D-Day doesn't really play like any other WWII shooter. Part of that is being on the Source engine but even then it has less of the traditional mechanics one might see in Day of Defeat: Source.
The game has 2 teams being the Allies and Axis. You think the main selling point being you can play as dinos would make everyone wanna play as the Axis right? WRONG. I enjoyed being the Allies way more because of the wider variety of human classes with different weapons, abilities, and personalities. Playing as the dinosaurs is cool and a lot of fun but taking both reptilian beasts and fascists down feels great.
There are some issues with the game in it's current state however. Many servers crashed whenever I would choose a character, and the game is pretty much dead unless you go into it with friends or manage to host a server over the internet (good luck with that btw). It's pretty much fully playable locally except a few achievements require other human players.
Overall, don't get this game in this state unless you get it for really cheap. Still if you play it locally or host a session, you're in for a great time shooting Nazis and playing as dinos.
