a jem in the rough as they say, pretty terrible graphics in some places, and in others almost on par with A games, but def not AA. character design and facial expression is decent, and voice acting runs the gambit from amazing to the truly awful.
the game plays out like a heavy rain or a poor mans LA Noire restricted to only investigation mode and action sections. usually the most difficult thing to accomplish with a perfect rating is something silly like running down stairs, or hacking brush. conversation trees are decently drawn out, although u never know which will lead to the next cut scene so its tough to explore all the options
also it can feel a little disjointed as each chapter is done by an entirely different cast including director.
still if your familiar with the series you can see the impact and shadowing influence as you following along in the footsteps of the movie. its interesting to see the chopper fly in over head and hear about the famous archeologist arriving to visit. its the knowing that you understand the reason behind why things are the way they are even though none of the other characters do.
there are some awesome moments and some heart wrenching ones too in a surprisingly far more story driven experience than i would have expected going into it.
they could have used the amazing jurassic park soundtrack better, but when the hauntingly familiar tones ring out it makes an impact.
its more an interactive movie interspersed with investigation parts than a real game. but it is still unexpectedly entertaining and leaves time for your to touch yourself and toke on somethin even while apparent danger is paramount
