Ladies and gentlemen, please let me introduce you to the greatest game of 2010. It's a Half-Life 2 mod called Dino D-Day, and if you're reading this before you watched the video, it's about World War II where the Nazis have dinosaurs. So you fight Nazis. And dinosaurs. And Nazi skywalking dinosaurs.
You can check out the official website for updates while I go drink some gatorade or something because this is so awesome I feel obligated to piss my pants. The player punched a fucking Tyrannosaurus in the mouth. It's everything I ever wanted in life. Infinite thanks to Jenova520 for the tip!

This is something like Avatar. Greatest thing ever, or utter poppyshit?
Niko said:
Do you also get to kill Nazis? Because the game would be incomplete if you only got to kill dinosaurs.
Punching a T-Rex though makes this worth it. The Jurassic Park franchise needs to take a lesson from these guys, or just hire them.
RomBomb replied to Niko:
Be careful what you wish for. Last I heard, the some of the latest scripts floated and ultimately rejected for a theoretical JP4 involved dinosaurs with guns. Sounds like good fun for a tongue-in-cheek flick, but it doesn't translate so well with the atmosphere the previous movies tried to create.

That's how my granpappy used to do things!

Its the definition of optimism to go hand to hand with a T-rex

Oh man, that's fantastic.

If I had a computer capable of running Half-Life 2, I would have this seconds after it launched.
PM said:
That's fucking fabulous.

Pretty damn sweet. @DoctorSmashy... I can easily see how you can screw up fantasy tales about cultures no one gives a damn about on the first place (e. g. Delgo/Avatar) but it's quite difficult to screw up Nazi-killing or dinosaurs, I look forward to it ;)

Man, this is going to be fantastic when I can get a hold of it. I would play the hell out of that.

You're welcome Rob. I knew it'd be appreciated here.
Now if you excuse me I need a change of pants and my T.Rex punching gloves.
Gleeman said:
WANT.
Think I creamed my pants too.

Did that T-Rex just throw a raptor at the player?

That was amazing enough to compel me to comment here on TR for the first time ever.
I'd decided I wanted this mod five seconds into the gameplay part of the trailer, but that shot of PUNCHING A FUCKING T-REX WITH YOUR BARE HANDS - Man, if that dude didn't get bitten in half the second the camera stopped rolling, he deserves so many medals for that.

I found this while procrastinating at work and I felt compelled to mention that I'm watching this without sound as the speakers are plugged into my ipod.
Needless to say, the epicness that ensured when Metallica's version of the imperial death march was playing over this footage it blew my freaking mind.
