* BiggerIsBetter: The playable [[RaptorAttack raptor]] here is not your usual ''Velociraptor'', but ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megaraptor Megaraptor]]'', which is only slightly smaller than many other bigger dinosaurs like ''T. rex''.
* CoolVsAwesome: This is a fighting game between ''dinosaurs'', so this is bound to happen. The announcer implies they're siccing the dinosaurs on each other - for what reason? ''Who cares?''
-->'''Announcer''': What a battle!

The dinosaurs created by the [=InGen=] company, both carnivores and herbivores, have broken loose in various locations and must now fight each other to the death.

[[ExcusePlot That’s the basic gist of it, really.]]

The game is notable for featuring dinosaurs that weren’t featured in the movies at the time but a few would go on to have major roles in future movies (albeit with some ''major'' redesigns).
