It's not exactly a brilliant game (!) , but there's something charmingly weird about it, you want to play it through to see what strangeness happens next. Dinosaurs versus dinosaurs in the Amazon, but it came out before primal rage. It has a story that's worth checking out, including bonus rounds that involve taking drugs, dreaming of being in the modern day and killing chinese dictators. Then, as it turns out in the end, you are revealed to be Rastan, another taito game character. It also has some of the absolute worst "engrish" I've ever seen in a game! All weird! And I think this is my last arcade post for a while, will be back at some stage with a restoration thread on radar scope, and some potentially big raids including maybe a couple of star wars empire cockpits and an abandoned arcade full of who knows what?! Happy new year all

I didn’t hesitate twice, 4 days later and it was sitting in my kitchen.. absolutely love this cab and in almost mint condition too, so happy to add this to the collection .. I’ve been through a lot of cabs but this by far has the nicest monitor I’ve ever seen.. bvm quality, puts the rest to shame tbh
