Dino Crisis 3 is a survival horror video game for the Xbox. Like the previous iterations of the Dino Crisis series, gameplay revolves around fighting dinosaurs; unlike previous iterations, the action now takes place in outer space, on a man-made station whose layout is continually changing.
Unlike the first two installments of the Dino Crisis series, the enemies in the game are not real dinosaurs. Instead they are mutations based off of the physical appearances of some dinosaur species.

[edit] Plot
It is the year 2548 and it has been over more than 300 years since Earth lost contact with the colony spaceship, Ozymandias. Somehow, it appeared near one of the moons of Jupiter. A team called S.O.A.R. (Special Operations And Reconnaissance) onboard the investigative Probe ship Seyfert are sent to investigate. A smaller shuttle lifts off from the Seyfert to investigate. Suddenly, the supership launched its turbo cannons at the Probe ship, destroying it. It then aims and fires at the shuttle. The weapon causes a large explosion. Apparently, most of the troops and crew members were killed from the blast. Fortunately, a few of the team members of S.O.A.R.; Patrick Tyler, McCoy, Sonya Hart and commander Jacob Ranshaw were able to survive and managed to board the ship. What will await them inside is just the beginning, if they could survive, rescue survivors, or even escape the bowels of the mysterious ship.
