Alien Isolation but with a group of raptors stalking you throughout the Jurassic Park complex seems like it could work.

A JP game that played like Zoo Tycoon but you had to constantly monitor all kinds of features to keep the dinosaurs from breaking out, which would be almost impossible unless you did it JUST right. Then, almost inevitably, the dinosaurs get loose and it becomes a turn-based strategy game based on dinosaurs vs staff.

TL;DR: Basically Total War but with Jurassic Park, and more micromanagement

Pretty decent tycoon game. Doesn't really work at all on modern computers and the Xbox version is super hard to get as you said.

Isn't the PS2 version the cheapest?

All this talk makes me crave a new Dino Crisis game. Can't believe that franchise hasn't had a game in over 10 years...

for good reason, the Xbox version looks vastly better and the game save takes up an entire PS2 Memory card if I recall correctly. Fortunately the oXbox is pretty easy to softmod, so I have an 80gig hd in mine and Operation Genesis saved to it, eventually I'll get around to playing it.
