    In the end, this game isn't for the usual gamers. If you are a hunter though and have a lot of patience, then you will definitely find something good here.

    You can have a quick 'mobile-gaming-style' hunt by selecting your radar and seeing how many dinosaurs you can take down in a few minutes, or by playing the endurance gamemode 'survive'.

    Or, you can immerse yourself in the world of Carnivores: go into a hunt blind and track down your prey in a world filled with many different dinosaurs that each present a unique challenge; and sometimes a threat. Spend hours walking around the maps, tracking down the dinosaurs and hoping you don't get caught yourself.

    There is so much value to be had here, I cannot recommend it enough.    … Full Review »

While the PSN version lacked updates and some of the old gameplay features, Tatem's iOS version cuts little and adds lots. The most notable inclusions are a camera for taking HD screenshots, a new "horde mode" style mini-game that's surprisingly fun, and a dinosaur roster that's been nearly doubled since Carnivores 2, but fans of the series will pick up on many small, positive tweaks made to the game's flow and UI. The game even continues to receive updates now, years after its initial release, giving it the most consumer value of all the current games. It's only real downfall is that its controls are not as intuitive and precise as its PC ancestors, but they're certainly better than their PSP/PS3 contemporary and new players will likely adapt to them just fine. It's no wonder there are so many dinosaur hunting games popping up on mobile devices now... imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and CDH Pro is well worth the praise.… Full Review »
