One of the earliest video game translations of the blockbuster film of that same year, the Genesis version of Jurassic Park was everything gamers expected out of movie tie-ins from the era and then some: 2D action, platforming, recognizable characters and locations and difficulty through the roof.

This one is perhaps most remembered for the unique player perspective, which allowed gamers to take control of Grant and a Raptor in the park. Two intertwining stories but told from opposing points of view.

The game was actually popular enough to warrant a revisit a few years later as the Jurassic Park franchise began to flex its staying power.

Jason Russell has been working in video game journalism since the early 1990s before the internet existed, the term "fanzine" had meaning and sailors still debated as to whether or not the earth was flat. The first time. More recently he has been the guy responsible for the Retrospective column for Old School Gamer Magazine, pens up a Game Skinny column on a plethora of video game topics. He's somehow managed to author nine novels, writes and runs the blog CG Movie Review, is co-founder of the science fiction publishing house Starry Eyed Press, and sometimes, when the planets align and the caffeine has fully left his system, it's rumored he sleeps.
