"Some people are happy being Burger Kings, others prefer to be Kings of the Ring and only the other day there was a song on the radio by The Kings of Leon. However, if we had our way we'd want to be the King of Dinosaurs. Just imagine sitting on an elaborate gold throne barking orders at prehistoric monsters! (Like the House of Commons Speaker, you mean? - political satire ed.)"

"Overall the game is fun and once we got over the initial learning curve, the boys seemed to really take to it. The battles are kind of Pokemon-esque so that carries some street cred with the kids. The fossil cleaning is fun and different- we haven't used the stylus for much up to this point in our 2 months of DS gaming. I have seen other reviews that call this game basic and geared toward kids but for us, that works out perfectly."

Such as the past 20 years of the show Law & Order. I did a rather good job resisting NCIS until now (curse you USA Network ... curse you!). Or the latest Mary Higgins Clark novel. But back in the mid 1990s, there was one craze that no child - or gamer - could truly resist. And that game was the Red and Blue versions of Pokemon for the original Nintendo Game Boy. What made those two games work underneath the crazily cute monsters was the simple fact that it was a solid, traditional role-playing game. Well, folks, Sega has released a game for the Nintendo DS in this vein known as Dinosaur King. So is this clone any good? Well, no, it is not that great."
NintendoLife Writes:
"It's just a shame that there are so many battles to navigate. I just timed a section and found I didn't even manage seven seconds between battles; imagine that repeated over the whole game. It's the crucial flaw that makes it so hard to enjoy Dinosaur King in anything other than very small doses, even if you do really, really like dinosaurs."
