I'd imagine you probably know this, but the Blizzard fatality where he punching bags the dude if you're in a water stage they land in the drink. Definitely worth seeing / adding if you have the time to edit it in.
Love how after blizzard defeats his enemies he literally lifts their souls out of their bodies with a great muscle pose follow by a good chest pound, roaring like a true ruler.
So sad this never became a franchise. Played this SO MUCH as a kid. I remember a kid I knew from school had rich parents and he had it on 3DO and it was the most insane shit ever, was as close to the arcade as you could get at the time and had FMV movies that weren’t in the other versions
Um it did become a franchise it hade five sequels to its name echo one better then the last and it hade a Novak a tv show a toy line and a dc as well as a book and a howl move made out of it
If the sequel hadn't been canceled due to the shrinking popularity of arcades and Midway buying Atari then the series might have turned into something greater. Mechanically the original game wasn't a great game, but neither was the original Mortal Kombat and that launched a franchise.
Pure, golden nostalgia. I remember seeing this in an arcade box at a bowling alley I went to when I was younger, and I saw more kids around this game than actually bowling. Damn good times.
Armadon: *Knocked out cold, ready to become extinct* Chaos: Hey, fellas, wanna see me jump into that river back there? Life Tribe: No? What the Hell? Why would you do that? Kill our God and claim us as your followers, don't just- Decay Tribe: DO A FLIP!
Walking into the lehigh valley mall in the 90s and seeing Primal Rage, Street Fighter II, Mortal kombat, virtua fighter, tekken, etc. What a time to be a teenager. I miss it.
I was going through an old storage shed where I had stuff stored, and found my copy of "Primal Rage" for PC. In the attic, I might have the old copy of "Game Pro" magazine that had all the moves. Very old game, but also very good. Stuff had been in that storage shed for 15 years... Love the content.
@@MegaYoYo I believe my version was MS Dos version. I remember it worked fine on my PC at the time. I used to play the game a lot with my cousin. It would probably work on Dosbox like most of the old classics I remember!! I'll have to fire it up and see if it still works!!!
I've been thinking up ideas for stage fatalities if Primal Rage ever gets a modern remake. Here's what I got so far: Cove - the dazed beast gets thrown out to sea, before he/she hits the water, a mosasaurus bursts out and eats him/her! Cliff - the dazed beast gets impaled on an icicle, his/her roars of agony echoes though the mountains causing an avalanche, burying the opponent in snow! Strip - the dazed beast gets thrown up to the nearby treetops and lands in a tree hut full of hungry raptors! After a grisly feeding frenzy, the beast limps out of the hut with 90% of his/her flesh missing, he/she then succumbs to his/her wounds and collapses! Ruins - the dazed beast gets thrown through a grate in the floor and ends up in an abandoned subway tunnel where he/she gets eaten by a giant maggot! Tomb - the dazed beast gets thrown onto a stone podium, then a magic laser blasts down from the moon and turns the opponent into a statue! Inferno - the dazed beast gets knocked onto a glowing red crack on the floor, suddenly it splits open and several demonic arms reach out and drags the beast to Hell!
Update: Hollows - the dazed beast is knock against the cave wall causing an earthquake. A boulder falls from the ceiling and lands on the beast. The boulder crumbles into smaller rocks and he/she gets back up, almost every bone in the dinosaur's/ape's body is broken but he/she won't give up. Limping towards the obvious victor, a stalactite falls from the ceiling and impales his/her skull in through the top of the head and out through the lower jaw.
20 years later I finally get to see there fatalities Amazing Was obsessed with this game as a child/ teenager almost to an adult Till It was no longer easy to find
Primal Rage was a cool game I thought of it as Mortal Kombat but with Dinosaurs. I used to play this when I was in high school at the arcade when I had the chance it was always fun.
played it as a kid like crazy .. recently sister got a copy and we put it back on.. it lasted 10 minutes, wasn't quite as much fun as we remembered lol
I remember this game not only because of the obvious settings, but also because it was right at the entrance of the giant arcade in town so you always heard the sounds it made as you stood in line.
Remember this game I love playing Primal Rage so much on Sega Primal Rage growing up as a kid I wish they make a new one or something because this game is so badass to play I even got the toys that came out back in the early 90s in Jamesway good times
This was in the local pizza parlor of my hometown. Played it a bunch growing up. Absolutely terrible game but it was cool and very nostalgic for me now.
I remember this game. I could never pull off the fatalities nor figure out how to eat worshippers... I remember reading the "Crab" Grass Roots campaign on this game back in the day because an 11 year old boy had gotten their mom to buy the game and she saw that one Chaos fatality... loved how the publisher just basically countered that campaign with a "you didn't even bother checking the ESRB when letting your kid purchase the game" counter attack while pointing out that she went straight to the media rather than voicing complaint to the publishers themselves.
Nice Game. I do have this on a Compilation on PS2. I also have Boxed version on Amiga. Never played on an Arcade Cab. Nice to see all the Finishers. The best one has gotta be the Golden Shower.
There was a Pizza Hut in the 90s that I wanted to go to all the time, and half the reason was to play the Primal Rage cab they had. A few years later I got it for the Genesis and always made everyone mad when they figured out I had mapped button combinations to the 6-button controller to give myself an advantage. haha
When I was a kid I used to play this game in the lobby of a Chinese restaurant my family went to a lot. I remember never getting past level 3 because it got too hard and I never could figure out how to do special attacks
7 characters, but proper balance. Good: Blizzard, Armadon, and Talon. Neutral: Sauron. Evil: Vertigo, Chaos, Diablo. The final boss was going to be a bone dragon.
If there was any justice, Primal Rage would still be going strong today. I mean, it's a bunch of giant, flesh eating monsters tearing the shit out of each other while tiny Humans cheer them on! Why the hell wasn't this a runaway success?!
I recall this is the only arcade game cabinet that I had my top score in. It was at a pretty popular bowling alley and stayed there for years. Vertigo All the Way
Iron Galaxy, Rare, Double Helix Games need to get on this, they did wonders remaking Killer Instinct I believe they could easily remake this, hell give NetherRealm Studios a shot at it they've done well with their MK fighting series.
Thanks to everybody for making this blow up! I'm glad my old videos are still giving viewing pleasure! 🦖🦕💀
Happy to be of service.
Nothing like watching low poly Dino's & misc beat each other into flesh smoothies
I'd imagine you probably know this, but the Blizzard fatality where he punching bags the dude if you're in a water stage they land in the drink. Definitely worth seeing / adding if you have the time to edit it in.

Memory unlocked
Love how after blizzard defeats his enemies he literally lifts their souls out of their bodies with a great muscle pose follow by a good chest pound, roaring like a true ruler.
He was my favorite as a kid.
To me he is the protagonist of the game a honorable ruler who wanted to protect urth and humanity from evil monster
Blizzard is a she.
@@bigevil66623 I think you're referring to Vertigo
My favorite is probably when Diablo literally sends his opponent to hell
So sad this never became a franchise. Played this SO MUCH as a kid.
I remember a kid I knew from school had rich parents and he had it on 3DO and it was the most insane shit ever, was as close to the arcade as you could get at the time and had FMV movies that weren’t in the other versions
Hey will primal rage work on the atgames Sega Genesis though?
Um it did become a franchise it hade five sequels to its name echo one better then the last and it hade a Novak a tv show a toy line and a dc as well as a book and a howl move made out of it

@@Tyrannmon you know that guy was talking about it becoming gaming franchise. No one cares about toys or tie in books.
Definitely one of my favorite games growing up. I hope a dev remakes it someday.
Pure, golden nostalgia. I remember seeing this in an arcade box at a bowling alley I went to when I was younger, and I saw more kids around this game than actually bowling. Damn good times.
That animation must've been crazy to see at the time
Every other Dinogod fatality: ripping hearts out.
Chaos: you see that river, Ima make a big Splash on it!
Armadon: *Knocked out cold, ready to become extinct*
Chaos: Hey, fellas, wanna see me jump into that river back there?
Life Tribe: No? What the Hell? Why would you do that? Kill our God and claim us as your followers, don't just-

Killer Instinct and Ninja Turtles too!
This is seriously one of the best fighters. I played this more then MK when I was a kid.
U trippin lmfao
@Jerry the Snail 🧢
@Jerry the Snail getting a little ahead of yourself bro
Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Tekken, Killer Instinct, and Primal Rage were my favorite fighting games.
You, my friend, have exceptional taste
Here we have people with good tastes, I also loved these games, in fact there are some that I still play
Killer instinct all the way
@@Nick-Nasty Yeahhhhh
Everyone: Let’s kill !
Chaos: LMAO CANNONBALL
He also snorts his own loogie! Nasty boi
almost 30 years later and im just now seeing some of these moves. This game was a classic.
Their weird moves to pull off
I was crazy into this game back in the day, this and Darkstalkers are my favorite fighting games ever.
I’m so happy they re-released darkstalkers
I like how when Chaos pisses on Armadon the music goes silent.
This was one of my favorite games. I spent many a quarters on this in the arcade back in the day
Nothing shows more dominance than eating the flesh of your fallen enemy. That's why Sauron is the best
Sauron likes himself some fermented meats
I was going through an old storage shed where I had stuff stored, and found my copy of "Primal Rage" for PC. In the attic, I might have the old copy of "Game Pro" magazine that had all the moves. Very old game, but also very good. Stuff had been in that storage shed for 15 years... Love the content.

This games needs a fucking remaster/remake and sequels.
talon’s “raoowwr” noise lives in my head rent free
I feel the same way about the bird noise in the intro
These were very tricky to pull off as I recall. Timing, placement, and sometimes pure luck. Rare to do against the CPU.
This game had the worst control set up.
If you look real carefully you can see some similarities with Soul Calibur. Button holding to activate specials at the end of combos specifically.
I loved this game I hope this game get a reboot.
if it does, I want them to use stop motion animation like in the original.
@Matt
Don't count on it.
Maybe like an enhanced version of claymation
Still gotta keep faith. it was a fun game :)
Derrick Haggard Yeah! Me too.
Blizzard makes his opponent's soul ascend to the heavens. Quite fitting considering I'd give my soul to see this game get a revival.
I think most of us here would do that
I used to play this game on my old Super Nintendo years ago.
Still do sometimes. Have Sega Saturn version also.
Other monsters: *Cool poses,intimidating roars,symbols of domination*
Chaos: A d d i o
what a precious historical treasure
I've been thinking up ideas for stage fatalities if Primal Rage ever gets a modern remake. Here's what I got so far:

+samandmrcheese I like the Inferno one. You could even throw a little Scorpion from Mortal Kombat cameo in there.
+MegaYoYo Just out of curiosity, what's your opinion on the other 5 fatalities?
a updated remake of this would be so dope
you forgot the Hollows
Update:
Hollows - the dazed beast is knock against the cave wall causing an earthquake. A boulder falls from the ceiling and lands on the beast. The boulder crumbles into smaller rocks and he/she gets back up, almost every bone in the dinosaur's/ape's body is broken but he/she won't give up.

god damn! this game is old as hell.I remember playing it about 25 years ago!
Talon looks like he can't decide which way to fall when he gets killed...
I’m 23. I was jamming on this on my dads ps1 at 3 years old
Bruh, thats a good life right there
I was never able to pull off any of these fatalities. They're so badass tho!
The whole move set is weird and non-intuitive.
I think the inputs are sorta backward. Hold buttons and then the joystick in a direction pulls off moves
Damn I miss this game!! So much fun!
Holy crap. Played this in the arcade while in college(mid nineties)
What a time
Didn’t even realize there were finishers until now, huh. Most are pretty good too.
Glad I could introduce them to ya!
1:13 Talon: eat your heart out. better yet, let me eat it for you!!
They need to remake this old school gem. What a cool ass game
20 years later I finally get to see there fatalities
Amazing
Was obsessed with this game as a child/ teenager almost to an adult
Till It was no longer easy to find
This game looks so cool, wish I could’ve played it
You still can my friend! There are various ways!
Dang, they beat each other so bad that their blood sperated from its plasma.
Time to involuntarily donate
Blizzards punches and uppercut fatality is the best lol
Still waiting for this gem to come back one day
In my entire life of playing this game how have I just now noticed the continents form a dinosaur skull breathing fire like Diablo.
Yea buddy! thats great design
This needs to come back. Also Sauron is my boy.
LOVED this game as a kid, the colors wre so cool looking. Talon's hurricane finisher was the most goriest with the eye hanging out 10/10
I was a big fan of Sauron’s jump crush finisher
This game needs to be rereleased on virtual consoles
If you have a snes or a ps classic then you can hack it and put the games on there.
Primal Rage was a cool game I thought of it as Mortal Kombat but with Dinosaurs. I used to play this when I was in high school at the arcade when I had the chance it was always fun.
If you take Mortal Kombat and Jurassic Park, and sprinkle in a little bit of medusa and King Kong in this, you get primal Rage.
Omg I remember this game!! I forgot all about it. So much fun when I was a kid
I would love a movie from this.
They already made it. It's called Jurassic Park.
@@MegaYoYo Funny I don't remember any dragons or ape like beasts or giant cobra monsters in Jurassic Park
MegaYoYo acutually there is it called the same as the game
*Raphael Tobar.* And it should be *"Rated R"*
@@jhosuearrieta2191 I know it's 2 years later but just to be clear for future readers : the 2018 movie "Primal Rage" have nothing to do with the game.
played it as a kid like crazy ..
recently sister got a copy and we put it back on..
it lasted 10 minutes, wasn't quite as much fun as we remembered lol
We need a primal rage remake
I remember this game not only because of the obvious settings, but also because it was right at the entrance of the giant arcade in town so you always heard the sounds it made as you stood in line.
I remember seeing this cabinet all over the place. Coudln't run away from it.
I rented the hell out of this game till I evetually found it at a garage sell during gamecube era. Played the shot out of it again. Still have it. :)
Dude awesome! You got the genesis or snes verison?
This game is a fragment of my childhood and needs a fucking reboot. I remember playing it on midway arcade treasures 2
Remember this game I love playing Primal Rage so much on Sega Primal Rage growing up as a kid I wish they make a new one or something because this game is so badass to play I even got the toys that came out back in the early 90s in Jamesway good times
Love it, should make a remake of this game
Damn I forgot about this game , I love it so much as a kid
Glad I could help you remember
Good: Armadon and Blizzard
Evil: Sauron, Diablo and Vertigo
Neutral: Talon and Chaos
Sauron is a real piece of work
This was in the local pizza parlor of my hometown. Played it a bunch growing up. Absolutely terrible game but it was cool and very nostalgic for me now.
Game plays horrible but it always brings good memories
Oh man, used to play the hell outta this game in the good ol' days... Armadon was my guy.
Holy fuck. This is one of the games I've been looking for for a long while now.
Glad TH-cam pointed you in the right direction
When you finally realized:
Sauron and Diablo are the same sprite
Blizzard and Chaos are the same sprite
I hope some company does a Primal Rage remake someday.
I hope it's Iron Galaxy
I love this game, I want an updated version of this game for the Xbox
2:42 taht is one of the most Horrific things that I’ve ever seen.

These guys were truly pioneers in the video game industry. eerr wait. I seem to remember someone doing it first..
Seeing you having minor issues pulling off Vertigo finishers is no joke. Those damn moves were so fucking hard.
Gosh darn ain that the truth. That input method was weird as shit
she was my main and i could only ever get the cow finisher to work. i think i turned someone to stone 99% by accident once lol.
It seems like a long time ago this game came out. It was great.
A shame it did not have any sequels. Would love to see it
Come back.
Time flies when you're having fun
Primal Rage was actually going to have a sequel but it got cancelled. Although a prototype build has since been leaked to the public
@@jasonmartinez5116 I've actually played Primal Rage 2 and I loved every second of it!
Hahah good ol' TH-cam to randomly bring me back to 7th grade
The best throwback platform
Blizzard was my favorite character when I played this game years ago 💪🏿
Blizzard is super cool. Seems like the primary character of the series too!
This brings back so many memories!!
I'm glad! I always love hearing this statement
A perfect example of a Mortal Kombat clone! A very good one! I'm not into gore, but this is not a bad game
It's a solid fighter with weird inputs for specials. It def has that B-movie charm
This game was far ahead of mortal Kombat when it came out
2:22 Batter at the plate....
2:28 IT’S OUTTA THE PARK!!!!!!!!!
Nice Game. I do have this on a Compilation on PS2. I also have Boxed version on Amiga. Never played on an Arcade Cab. Nice to see all the Finishers. The best one has gotta be the Golden Shower.
This bring back so many memories. They need make this for Xbox one PS4 PS5 and Xbox series
I would like and HD release with updated controls
This game and Bloody Roar deserve a comeback.
I hope this game comes back but with updated control scheme
There was a Pizza Hut in the 90s that I wanted to go to all the time, and half the reason was to play the Primal Rage cab they had. A few years later I got it for the Genesis and always made everyone mad when they figured out I had mapped button combinations to the 6-button controller to give myself an advantage. haha
Smart man
There are no Slashfang and no Necrosan in Primal Rage (1994) until Primal Rage the Toy Action Figures created by Playmates Toys (1995 to 1997).
I wish I could record Primal Rage 2 content.
@@MegaYoYo Primal Rage 2 the Video Game is Canceled!
@Landon Rife Yes!

@Landon Rife I've been to Galloping Ghost Arcade to play the cabinet and it was great. When I downloaded it for MAME it was riddled with problems.
I sadly forgot about this game. I use to have the 2 T-rexes as toys. This was epic! A flamethrowing T-rex? Gg
Yea man I remember having the blue ape (Blizzard) as a toy when I was younger
@@MegaYoYo Nice. Those toys had a great color to them! Wish this game would come back someday.
I loved eating the villagers that were clearly rooting for me , it was such a cruel addition but so fun 🤩
They are there to support you, even if it means their death
When I was a kid I used to play this game in the lobby of a Chinese restaurant my family went to a lot. I remember never getting past level 3 because it got too hard and I never could figure out how to do special attacks
Now that is a game they should bring back
bring it back
Andrew Leonard Nether Realm should do this after Injustice 2.
I loved playing this game as a kid. I needs a remake.
Dude on the thumbnail be like "I do be having spaghetti brains"
I feel that sometimes
I remember hating this game so much because the cpu was so hard to beat. I still continued playing lol
Can we talk about how blizzard is just dead in the opening cutscene?
7 characters, but proper balance.
Good: Blizzard, Armadon, and Talon.
Neutral: Sauron.
Evil: Vertigo, Chaos, Diablo.
The final boss was going to be a bone dragon.
Sauron and Talon both belong in the "Evil" section, considering their endings. Blizzard, Armadon, and Chaos are the only good ones.
Talon reminds me of the Night Feeder on primal
Primal? The ps2 game?
This is the kind of game LimitedRun should put out!
Ah, the nostalgia!!!!
"LARGA VIDA A VÉRTIGO Y SAURON"
Such a strange fighter game. I remember seeing it as a kid walking by and seeing chaos pissing on the dinosaur.

I still jave the gameboy and sega genesis versions of this game. Remember it fondly at the local arcade back in the day.
The sega génesis version is rough
That it is always wondered as a kid why i played so much better at the arcade.
I loved this game lol, i wish it aged better. Vertigo my boy
This was dope had it for the 3do system
