    I saw it, and there's actually another video that was posted on youtube by a fan that has a clearer shot at it. It looks fine, however it seems to be modeled more off of the Parasaurolophus seen in The Lost World

    It isn't like we see them as clearly in the first movie anyway.

    That's true, and the design on the mural in the dining room during the film sorta matches the ones seen in TLW only with a more greenish blue coloration rather than the brown and red seein in the sequal.

    It looks like its coming along nicely. Apparantly the graphics have improved a lot since the last videos. I can't wait to play it. :)

    I know we only see the Parasaurolophus very briefly in the first movie, but is there much of a difference between the two movies for this animal?

    I know the other dinosaurs have some differences.

    The two parasaurs are very different...even different enought two be two subspecies. Like the asian and african elephant. Most people however just assume that those are female and the ones in TLW were all male....

    very true according to wikipedia there are 3 sub species of parasaurolphus

    i also noticed on wikipedia they have reconstructed sounds of parasaurolphus. im guessing that these were retrived using something simmilar to the raptor nasal cavity in JpIII

    I saw something about that on tv in the past. They blow air through the passages in the Parasaurolophus's head crest, like a trumpet.

    Actually it was done by scientists here in New Mexico where I live. They actually have a crest on display at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science along with the very same recording heard online.

    actually, there are three species of parasaurolophus. parasaurolophus is a genus.

    Is it just me, or did it seem like the parasaurolophus in the video was standing way too upright? Maybe I'm not seeing it correctly.

    The Parasaurolophus is a male.Why? Maybe it's like how the male velociraptor's were created from changing sex.
