Primal Rage is a classic arcade style beat 'em up game. I guess when Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat ruled the arcades back in the early to mid 90's fighting games were the biggest thing since Mario. The game itself is somewhat boring to me, but I still would recommend it to a friend. Out of all the versions I played, the 3DO version is as close to the arcade as you can get unless you own it as a extra bonus game on Midway Arcade Treasures. The loading times are killer, but gameplay is good, graphics and music are arcade perfect. I would recommend using a 6 button controller, with the three button, it can get difficult to pull special attacks and finishing moves. Hardcore 3DO collectors should own this, it's fairly inexpensive and it's still a fun game to play when you want to relive the good old arcade days.Read full review
Primal Rage was released in 1994 in arcades then ported to about every platform available from Genesis, SNES, PS1, Saturn, 32x and more. This version looks graphically superior to all those versions, but the game breaking glitches make it unplayable. First off the game will randomly reset itself to the start up screen for no reason at all. This is beyond unacceptable! The characters will forget to do a victory pose sometimes and special moves have delay times during fights. I'm convinced this was how the game got released in 1995. I've tried playing it on different 3DO consoles FZ-1, FZ-10, and Goldstar. I have even used different copies of the game that are all official versions of the disc not a cheap burned CD-R. A mediocre dinosaur fighting game that remains extinct on the 3DO!
This game actually preserves the actual arcade quality. This is the only true to Arcade version of the game. The finishing moves are true to Arcade and censored out in every version besides the 3do release. Get it, and LOVE IT!
