Dinosaur Hunting (English Beta) - Stage 07 - Catch a Carnotaurus
π The unreleased English Beta of Dinosaur Hunting has finally made its way online! I've captured and recorded dozens of hours of content from the Japanese original but the never-published localized version has always eluded meβ¦ until now. This is my victory lap, a run through the whole game that I've waited 18 years for.
π¦ ABOUT THE GAME
Exclusively released on the original Xbox in Japan in September of 2003, Dinosaur Hunting was developed by Scarab and published by Microsoft Game Studios. It was in translation for a Western release in 2004 when publisher Metro3D shut down. Review copies were distributed to magazines but the game was never released to stores and has been incredibly hard to find.
In late September of 2021, game development preservation group Hidden Palace released the 2003 NTSC Beta build of Dinosaur Hunting online.

Earlier in 2021 I created what turned out to be a game guide for those looking to play it themselves (https://bit.ly/DHfieldguide). It expanded into a few more specific documents about the game, a new release of the game's soundtrack, my homemade English translation files, and hi-res scans of the manual.
