Episode 87 : Dino Crisis (PlayStation)

Everyone is playing the new Resident Evil 2 remake, so we thought it was a great time to look at what Resident Evil would look like if it was based on Jurassic Park instead of zombie movies -- Dino Crisis, originally released on the Sony Playstation in 1999!

Do Resident Evil tank controls make a dinosaur based survival horror game still worth playing, or is this a case of two great tastes that don't really taste great together?

We also read off several listener mails, covering game recommendations, comments about past shows, and best games on worst systems (and vice versa).
