Tyrannosaurus Rex: Difference between revisions

Line 184:

* The Thunderjaws of ''[[Horizon Zero Dawn]]'' are some of the coolest Tyrannosaurs in fiction. Why? Because they're gigantic robot Tyrannosaurs equipped with rocket launchers and laser cannons! However, as cool as they are they're also some of the most dangerous machines for that exact same reason, meaning that any player looking to tackle one better make damn-well sure that they're prepared.

* A photo-realistic Tyrannosaurus Rex that looks like it stepped right off the set of Jurassic Park is a rare, but memorable enemy in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. And guess what? Like many things in the game, you can possess and play as it!

* ''[[Monster Hunter]]'' has a lot of monsters that borrow aesthetics from prehistoric creatures, and that naturally includes monsters inspired by the Tyrannosaurus.

** The most famous one would be Deviljho, a.k.a [[Fan Nickname|the Murderpickle]]. Take a T. Rex, fuse it with a pickle and ''[[Godzilla]]'', and make it an unstoppable force of nature with an appetite that can wipe out entire ecosystems, and you've got one of the most dangerous monsters in the setting. It's so powerful that it's considered to be just as dangerous as most ''Elder Dragons'', and was introduced in the third generation as an unstoppable menace who would invade hunts against weaker monsters and would force players to run for their lives since its debut happens ''long'' before you can reasonably fight it and survive.

** Anjanath from ''[[Monster Hunter World]]'' isn't just a monster that ''looks'' like a T. Rex, but practically ''is'' a T. Rex: specifically a pink T. Rex with feathery down similar to that of a vulture and the ability to sneeze (yep, ''sneeze'') fire thanks to its superheated mucus. Once it's enraged however, it stands out a bit more thanks to the way it unfurls a pair of large Spinosaurus-style sails on its back, as well as an odd crest-like nose bone for its mucus attacks. It also has a yellow/black/purple variant called Fulgur Anjanath that trades its fire attacks for electric breath.

** While its face invokes the Carnotaurus thanks to the horns and overall structure, Glavenus has the arms and stance of a T. Rex... specifically, a T. Rex with a SUPERHEATED SWORD FOR A TAIL. While some fans accuse it of being a [[Creator's Pet]] thanks to the ridiculous amount of exposure it gets at the expense of the rest of the Fated Four, [[So Cool Its Awesome|can you ''really'' blame Capcom for wanting to show it off?]]

** While its body is closer to that of a generic Flying Wyvern as opposed to Brute Wyverns like Deviljho, Tigrex is the OG Tyrannosaurus Rex monster of the series, debuting in Gen 2 and becoming one of the series' mascots in the process. It's a spastic, ridiculously aggressive dragon with a T. Rex head, and has a ''ton'' of subspecies and offshoots that are more dangerous than the last, such as Brute Tigrex and its painful hypersonic roars, or the gigantic Molten Tigrex that scatters explosive powder everywhere.
