JURASSIC TIME MEMOIRS: A Conversation With SEAMUS BLACKLEY (PT. 02): THE ORIGINS OF JURASSIC WORLD

PART 02 of 03. Some explicit language is present.

Seamus Blackley is the creator of the world-famous XBOX gaming system, but before that he was the producer and programmer of the 1998 PC game "Trespasser- The Lost World: Jurassic Park". Despite high ambitions, it was sadly met with production hurdles & a deadline that crippled the game. Despite its failure, Blackley's success with the XBOX reinvigorated his career, leading to yet another opportunity to explore the gaming world of the Jurassic Park franchise. He was tasked to create a game that took place after the original film trilogy. Even though an impressive pitch trailer and other materials were created, the game never got made. It had been called: "Jurassic World".

Join Derrick Davis as he discusses with Seamus Blackley both of these Jurassic Park games, what went wrong, and how they refused to remain extinct.
