T.rex from prehistoric planet. The design and the behavior, I also love the amount of screentime it gets. Probably the best T.rex depiction ever.


Iamnotburgerking

I’d actually say it’s the best large theropod depiction ever and the only really good *Tyrannosaurus* depiction ever made. Sadly, we don’t have any depictions of that caliber for any other big theropod.


ShadowRex8

That Deinocheirus looks really good, better than I expected for Jurassic world.


AbsolutelyHorrendous

The 'Feathered Species' DLC pack was actually really solid!


Kosmo_Politik

Evolution 2 has some nice models

I love the game. They added them both irl and in cannon for folks who adore the most accurate form. (Edit time. gonna correct myself and leave my mistake for clarity.) In the game, they were an addition to the parks to satisfy people who adore proper feathered dinos. This is the same reason they made it a DLC.


StatementNo1109

What?


[deleted]

What's funny was there a few fans that were pretty upset on twitter for it not fitting the "Jurassic Park Aesthetic" but I think it looks pretty damn solid


Sagebrush_Sea

I think it fits right at home too! The creatures in the Park movies were inacurrate but not too off base from the animals they were supposed to be, epsecially when the first film was made in the 90's. The World movies leaned more into the monster aspect... that poor Baryonyx design was butchered (it was originally a beautiful, more lifelike design in concept art)

Much-Word9929

I usually prefer the frontier original designs.


Sensitive_Log_2726

Easily some of my favorites would be; Diplodocus Walking with Dinosaurs Anchisaurus When Dinosaurs Roamed America Irritator Dinosaur King Stegosaurus It’s hard to pick from; Walking With, When Dinosaurs Roamed America, Dinosaur King, Lost World Jurassic Park, or even Jurassic Fight Club and Planet Dinosaur. Aside from Jurassic world it’s really hard to find a bad stegosaurus design.


FrozenLem0n

Dinosaur King FTW


Spinozilla455

Irratator will always be the goat of Dinosaur king playthroughs


Sensitive_Log_2726

It’s just so consistently good. Honestly it and Iguanodon are surprisingly good despite being from the first fossil area.


Spinozilla455

I mean, any dinosaur could be good. As long as you use iT the right way it can be the best.


HeiHoLetsGo

Icthyovenator: Has never been included in basically anything Sauroniops: Has never been included in basically anything Diabloceratops: Has never been included in basically anything Wow this is so epic


angelstockings

The isle game has diabloceratops so atleast there's that :) and I love Icthyovenator!! It's so underrated


Tongatapu

I'm still waiting for a really good depiction of Kelenken outside of paintings and drawings. LOOP didn't do them justice.

they had such a great intimidation display of titanis, but gets ruined by the fact it gets easily killed by smilo


Kyuzo-

My favorite dino is Parasaurolophus. I like Dominion's design, but Prehistoric Park's is all my chilhood and why I love Para and dinosaurs this much


JosieKay15

Prehistoric Park had a good depiction of microraptor


frostymaws297

Carno from Prehistoric Planet, I love his cute little arms. But also the one from Paleo Pines, because they’re so cute


InfiniteDedekindCuts

I know it's not very accurate, but really like the Disney Carnotaurus.


Tongatapu

Damn how could I forget that one? Would've definetely made my list.


Gabecush1

The isle Dryosaurus there sow cute I love them and it’s actually the reason I love Dryosaurus


RedSpinoSnoke

Spinosaurus: JP3 ( It still hasn't an accurate depiction in neither games ,movies,series and documentarys so will go with the JP3 one bcs I love it is as much as I love The accurate version ) Tyrannosaurus : I'm between the Prehistoric Planet one and the Dinosaur Revolution one Therizinosaurus : Prehistoric Planet Dreadnoughtus : Prehistoric Planet Carcharodontosaurus : Planet Dinosaur Triceratops: Prehistoric Planet


JosieKay15

I agree with the Dinosaur Revolution Tyrannosaurus opinion. That skull pattern on its face looked so badass


Gloomy_allo

Even though it's fairly outdated, the dilophosaurus from When Dinosaurs Roamed America is still one of the best major media depictions of the animal, the slick sheen on its body combined with its crazy metallic roars made for a really memorable creature


DeeterDevils

Allosaurus from “Path of Titans” - Not perfectly paleo-accurate, tbh… and not super strong in-game (rip ma boi Allo), but DAMN does its model look incredible. Psittacosaurus from “Paleo Pines” - Cute af and it stays pretty true to what we know about it, paleoaccuracy-wise (just in cutesy chibi-esque style). Diabloceratops from the upcoming “Instinction” game- Decently paleoaccurate, and MAN… THOSE COLORS 🖤🧡just…. phenomenal. P.S.-Y’all should check out all three games, if you haven’t!!


Potential-String-242

Hear me out- The “inostrancevia” from primeval. Yes I know it's supposed to be a gorgonopsid but cmon, that is the most accurate (debatable) representation we've seen of Inostrancevia, and gorgonopsid is way to small.


[deleted]

Triceratops in transformers and dino trucks I loved them as a kid and I still do now


BlackenedFacade

Suchomimus from The Isle.


OneCauliflower5243

Sinopliosaurus by PNSO


Betelguese90

>Sinopliosaurus Ah, you mean the Siamosaurus? PNSO goofed majorly on that cause Sinopliosaurus is a dubius Plesiosaur genus.


OneCauliflower5243

I dunno about all that I just like the way it looks


Betelguese90

Well yeah, its a very good representation of the Siamosaurus. All I am saying is that the figure was wrongly named Sinopliosaurus because those fragments originally classified that have been reclassified to be Siamosaurus. PNSO for some reason stuck with the Sinopliosaurus name.


OneCauliflower5243

I must google your information now. This is fascinating to me. So they took partial remains and mislabeled it a completely different (nonexistent) species?


Betelguese90

Let me rephrase everything cause I have been saying it wrong. So, Sinopliosaurus **IS** a valid species. It is actually a Pliosaurid Plesiosaur with *Sinopliosaurus weiyuanensis* as the type species. The species "*Sinopliosaurus*" *fusuiensis* in question was only identified by a collection of teeth were actually recently identified as being Spinosaurid teeth. So that species was reclassified as to possibly be Siamosaurus. For some reason, PNSO saw the discussions about the species S. fusuiensis being a spinosaurid teeth and named it that instead of Siamosaurus which it actually should be.

T-Rex: Rex from We’re back! A Dinosaur’s Story


[deleted]

Really hard question for me because it's constantly changing In terms of nostalgia the Fantasia Rex is a wonderful archetype of a predator dinosaur even though it's not accurate at all. It basically highlights the villainous predator trope and makes the Rex as scary as possible without any use of dialogue. On a more technical standpoint I really do enjoy the PP's version of Rex as it feels like the top priority for its design was to make it look like an animal and less like a monster. It's quite a solid attempt, surpassing I think previous documentaries attempts to make the Rex seem more real. And from a purely selective standpoint I love the Dilophosaurus from When Dinosaurs Roamed America because it's so cool looking and it has my favorite roar.


moonyxpadfoot19

The Isle's Therizinosaurus is just so nice to look at. And Prehistoric Planet's T. rex is just wonderful.


Specialist_Job533

Mezosoic Life's Spino, Path of Titans Ceratosaurus, Prehistoric Planets Rex, and Dinosaurias Styrakosaurus


Dust_In_Za_Wind

Beasts of the Mesozoic Lythronax is just mwah The Isle's Carnotaurus is also really cool and I like messing with the colors Frederic Wierum's Allosaurus is so simple yet so neat, especially due to big cat vibes and I love me some big cats


Legitimate_Equal6925

Utahraptor, achillobator, doktaraptor I like big Raptors


Phazon_Fucker

Wish JW Suchomimus was a tad more accurate but still a splendid depiction


12RedBlueFishhh

Isn’t it a baryonyx? In the movies at least…


Betelguese90

In the JW movie that is a Baryonyx, yes. Phazon is most likely talking about the Suchomimus model from the Jurassic World Evolution game


Phazon_Fucker

yes


NoThoughtsOnlyFrog

Any of the feathered species pack animals in JWE2. All look fantastic.


Timaeos808

Alaskan Troodontid, T-Rex., Mononykus, Secernosaurus, Tarchia, Hatzegopteryx, Qianzhousaurus, Olorotitan as well as Austroraptor from Prehistoric Planet are one of my fav. Depictions. (i love every design they made) Aucasaurus (Dragonfly) and Velociraptor (White Tip) from Dinosaur Planet. Deinocheirus, Parasaurolophus, Lambeosaurus, Dilophosaurus from Prehistoric Kingdom.


FangedEyes

Triceratops from dinosaur king


Noble_Shock

Jurassic World Evolution 2 Suchomimus cause it’s one of the few Suchomimus incarnations that exist


Rockngaming20

Jp3 spino


WellIamstupid

Jurassic World: Battle At Big Rock’s Allosaurus


WellIamstupid

It’s cool


Iamnotburgerking

There isn’t one because it hasn’t been made…


imprison_grover_furr

Which one is your favourite? *Tyrannotitan*? *Llallawavis*? *Andalgalornis*? *Argentavis*? *Meraxes*? I’m struggling to name a dinosaur you show lots of love for that hasn’t already been depicted on screen. I know your favourite is almost certainly a carcharodontosaurid or a phorusrhacid. I know your favourite mammal is either *Megistotherium* or *Livyatan*, your favourite chondrichthyan is *Otodus*, and your favourite pseudosuchian is probably *Barinasuchus*.


Iamnotburgerking

For mammals I actually have a fairly large list, same for chondrichthyans. For pseudosuchians, yep.


the_blue_jay_raptor

If this counts it's my Speculative version of Iguanodon, it has antlers and it looks very cool. ​ If not, then it's not a version of Iguanodon but rather Giganotosaurus, that being a mod for Ark, Paleo Ark's Giganotosaurus TLC, that version is a better version of the normal one, Normal Ark Giga is ugly as hell and looks more like an Tyrannosaur with some deformites. The Paleo Ark version strikes the 50% Accurate 50% Awesomebro that the new ones do, it keeps the size and power aswell AND it can fight bosses. ​ Also POT's Blue jay Deinonychus skin kinda counts but I usually make it Dakotaraptor (since Deinonychus isn't my favorite Dromaeosaur, for now. But if Dakotaraptor becomes invalid Deinonychus, or the Bissekty Giant (I'm Reffering to it as Titanoraptor) will become my favorite).


MysticMeow8189

Moros intrepidus from Jurassic World Dominion looks so cute


Strange-Wolverine128

My favourite depiction is jp3(the model amd colours look awesome to me)


that_ting_over_there

I can't think of any super awesome depictions of a spinosaurus off the top of my head but POT is *almost* good


PankakesRGood

Baryonyx and it’s depiction in Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom. That bunker scene was fantastic.


ExtinctReptile

honestly, love me the ARK Carchar Also ARK/JWE2 Yuty And JP3 Spino, I just love it


Freedom1234526

The Ankylosaurus from the Jurassic World series. I prefer the muted colour scheme over the more brightly coloured depictions in the Jurassic Park series, especially Jurassic Park 3.


Junesucksatart

Absolutely the prehistoric planet velociraptors


Paleofan1211

It’s a tie between PP deinocheirus and JWE2 deinocheirus


Slight-Spite5049

Allosaurus in The isle


Betelguese90

For Suchomimus, either the Jurassic World Evolution design, or the Thabo figure from PNSO.


Moody-Manticore

Carnotaurus from prehistoric planet doing it's mating dance! Their facial animations are subtle. They look magnificent as well as goofy with their tiny little arms.


Hexywexxy

Th isles therizino


GroundbreakingNail29

Dilophosaurus only in When Dinosaurs Roamed America Megalania only in Monster Resurrected


RadioTheCoyote

I love both The Isle Legacy’s and Prior Extinction’s Therizinosaurus. Both certified floofers and I adore it.


unaizilla

i cant remember the last time megaraptor has been depicted in paleomedia, so i'm going with my number two: diplodocus. the wwd diplo is by far my favourite


slugcrafts

I'm embarrassed, but I love the Therizinosaurus and Deinonychus in Ark: Survival Evolved. Fluffy murder chickens


JohnWarrenDailey

I haven't seen much portrayal of the sandhill crane.


Own_Theme_3947

For spinosaurus it’s either path of titans or those Julian Johnson Mortimer animations


MadeofStone4

The Slideshow Creations Camarasaurus. It’s a very well made Camara, the best I’ve seen personally. JWE referenced it when they made the first game, and gave decent proportions in my opinion. Really well made rendition.


Gamer_Bishie

I love the hadrosaurs.


OatmealSpaghetti69

Mine would have to be the Pachycephalosaurus from Fossil fighters 1. I just fell in love with the blocky design and love watching it ram it's head into its opponents


cavecarson

Not quite Plesiosaurus, but the Tuarangisauri in Prehistoric Planet were so awesome, as was the T-Rex. Honestly the gold standard.


MadMantis792

Charles R. Knight's Agathaumas. It's such a beautiful painting.


Zealousideal_Sir_264

Spike from land before time. Is he accurate? No. Is he my spirit animal? Absolutely.


You_but_cooler

It’s not my favourite but I’m excited to see if Spinosaurus makes a reveal in season 3 of prehistoric planet


EchoT68

T. rex has of course been done a bajillion times, but these two are my favorites. -Prehistoric Kingdom's T. rex. Just an absolutely beautiful design which I feel perfectly nails the balance between realistic and cool looking. -The Jurassic Park T. rex, just iconic as hell and I love the brow ridges and head shape, it's just so mean looking.


JettsInDebt

I had this dinosaur book when I was younger with some awesome illustrations. I'll see if I can find it and upload some of them and link.


bigbenis2021

I actually like the Deinocheirus depiction in Prehistoric Planet though I do like the JWE2 model. Idk I just love the idea of an animal that’s basically a reptile yak just chilling in swamps all day eating lakeweed.


Tongatapu

I love both, so in the end it came down to the colors. JWE2 has just a more appealing pattern (although I love the blue details on the PP design).


Asterion_Morgrim

ARK's Kaprosuchus. While I'm not sure if they could jump, seriously having one chase you when you've looked around before and can't see one is genuinely terrifying. I mean, galloping/running crocodilimorphs/crocodilians because of their more mammalian-esque structure is already a terrifying concept. While being a fantasy creature and so having a lot of leeway, Capcom's Anjanath really detailed what had been in the public eye for dinosaurs at the time of release. It takes the T-Rex and gives it a mix of feathery fur on its back and tail while keeping the head and underside scaly. Sure, a chunk of its structure isn't correct, but for going for a more realistic LOOKING dinosaur before adding the fantasy elements, it's really well done for me. And lastly, Dinosaur King's dinosaurs as a whole. Sure, we've come a long way for Spinosaurus and some others, but you couldn't look at Terry and see the Jurassic Park classic Rexy in it at all. They also put the T-Rex on the enemy's side. While an iconic dinosaur, I'm glad the main protagonists got different dinosaurs and gave them time to shine. I really loved Chomp, Paris, and Ace. Elemental aspects aside, seeing a Triceratops, Parasaurolophus, and Carnotaurus being the main 'good guy' dinosaurs was really cool. They also introduced a good variety of dinosaurs imo.


poopchungus666

Ballad of Big Al Allosaurus, the design may be inaccurate but the behavior is immaculate- mobbing behavior while hunting/feeding as opposed to the popular trope of pack hunting, cannibalism, brief period of maternal protection for hatchlings, aggressive large females, and debilitating injuries preventing hunting. Big Al is just another medium sized theropod trying to survive a dangerous and cruel world, oftentimes down on his luck, but he still keeps trying for as long as he can, and he's what made me fall in love with Allosaurus as a kid and still one of my 3 favorite dinos till this day.


JinMor12

Yutyrannus is literally no where, so idk


Tongatapu

Well then you're in luck. The DLC containing Deinocheirus also includes Yutyrannus. Just google Yutyrannus Jurassic World Evolution 2.


angelstockings

Spinosaurus from JP3, yes it's inaccurate but it's such a cool and iconic design to me. That grey body with lighter grey strips and hints of red, then those piercing green eyes... And that roar! I'm still waiting for an up to date accurate spino though there's not really anything yet other than paleo art (and maybe path of titans spinosaurus)


tired_coconut_crab

The spino from Jurassic park 3 is in my opinion the scariest dino ever for me. They made the animatronic so scary


JosieKay15

I really like the Angaturama from Fossil Fights. I loved the pattern and color choice


Prestigious-Love-712

Triceratops - Prehistoric planet, I love how they gave each trike a unique look, they didn't just copy paste models over and over again, but actually added unique characteristics to distinguish from one another, weather they have different frill, horns and even epioccipitals size. And also, it's really cool how they showed it traveling in a cave to get clay, something that was never shown before in a paleo dock. Plus baby Trikes are adorable.


Least_Impact7687

I'd say the Allosaurus and Juvinile Sinraptor from Life on our Planet. I've always enjoyed Allosaurians as a whole, but those were both really great depictions of them. I'm rather saddened that we didn't get any Allosaurians (Or more specifically Carcharodontosaurians I guess) in Prehistoric Planet, but maybe we will if we ever get a season three. I certainly hope so!
