Limited Run Games has announced that the two Jurassic Park games that came out on SNES, as well as Gex Trilogy, will release on Steam. And, since I’m a huge fan of the Jurassic Park SNES game, this makes me really, really happy.
In 2017, we shared a PC demo of the Visitor Center from the 16-bit version of Jurassic Park. Created in Unity, this demo showcased what a proper port of that classic game could look and play like.
Now I strongly suggest tempering your expectations as the Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection will not be that good. These two SNES games will be most likely emulated, so don’t expect much from them. I don’t even know whether we’ll get any 2D filters for them. For what it’s worth, Limited Run Games claims that it will implement some quality-of-life fixes. Still, you should keep your expectations in check.
Now since these will be official releases on PC, I kind of hope that someone will be able to mod them. Imagine a Path Tracing Mod for the first JP game, like the one we got for Doom. That game would look glorious with a Path Tracing Mod and an HD Texture Pack. After all, in case you didn’t know, JP on SNES has numerous first-person sequences. So, there is a huge potential here for an unofficial remaster. Do it modders… just… DO IT.
Limited Run Games will release the Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection on Steam later this year. The collection will feature the Jurassic Park SNES games alongside their NES and GameBoy cousins. As for the Gex Trilogy, there is no ETA on when it will come out.
Enjoy their trailers and stay tuned for more!

Why when you can just emulate them.
Why, you ask… Well, because of people like this:

Now try and find the brains on it, if you can.
Btw, it’s a random pic I got, don’t know who the lad is (thank god).
You could actually create your own JP collection and do a better job than these guys.
Yeah, but will the games actually work right? Sega brought their classic games to Steam years ago, but the stupid things were unplayable (at least on flatscreen).

Yeah, because these subhumans totally weren’t the ones who fired an employee over “muh transphobic tweets!”
At best, pirate these games and don’t give them your money or don’t play them at all.

I didn’t know this, thanks! They seem based
I will buy everything they put out now!
OK homosexual grabbler, you can go back to molesting and traumatizing innocent children now.
I’d rather he hop in feet first into a wood chipper, but that’s just my 2 cents.
Imagine playing a game from the 90s with a Steam launcher, the launcher is bigger than the game itself.
At least use GoG or an emulator so you can install games without a launcher or DRM.
59% / 58% on rottentomatoes.
It can’t be that bad can it.
20 minutes into the movie…this is horrendous.

“Imagine a Path Tracing Mod for the first JP game”
When you think you’ve read all the stüpidity that’s possible on the internet, John comes with this sentence.
And ofc moröns will buy a thing that is free on the web, cause you know, “muh trophies, gotta show them on my channel for my other 3 influencer mates”.
If stüpidity caused seeds, dudes would be walking jackfruits!
Snes9X + shaders is all I need, baby!

Garbage 3 foot wide scan lines.
You have to click on the picture to see how they really look.
Plus, there are hundreds of different shaders, and many don’t have scanlines, if you hate that.
It’s not a proper collection without the Sega and computer versions. Going for Nintendo JP games is really limiting yourself so maybe LRG is taking their name to heart. 🤦♂️
