Spike

Spike was a Spinosaurus aegyptiacus encountered by protagonist Craig Dylan during the events of Jurassic: The Hunted''. ''He is the main antagonist of the game and the player is forced to fight him two times.

In real life, the Spinosaurus is a mystery. Over the years the Spinosaurus was depicted as a biped or a quadraped. With recent evidence the quadraped theory has fallen out of favor and was most likely a biped. The Spino was also thought solely as a fish eater, but recent fossils has shown dinosaurs, such as Igaunadon, in its stomach.

History
Spike appears for the first time after Craig's retrieved the TVE. The spinosaur was initially hunting Sabrina, but then was distracted by a Tyrannosaurus, that was killed when Spike snaps his neck (just like the famous T-rex vs Spinosaurus fight from Jurassic Park III).

After returning to the fort with the battery, Dylan has to protect the barricade from Spike while Dr. Sayrus repairs the TVE.

After returning to the actual times, emerging on a sandy beach, Dylan and Sabrina ponder what to do next until another portal opens up, and Dr. Sayrus and Rock emerge of the repaired submarine one year after Dylan and Sabrina returned, with the apparently dead spinosaur tied to the hull.

As the game ends, Spike opens its’ eye, ending on a cliff hanger, it’s unknown if he killed the protagonists which is doubtful, but it’s likely that once he woke up he was taken down.

Gameplay
Spike has a high amount of HP and most weapons will not inflict much damage. The Light Machine Gun is highly recommended for this boss. His weak point is on the stomach and it will make the him step back every time the player hits it. With it backing down, you'll have some time to run and maybe reach an ammo box.

Grenades and the Rocket Launcher are recmmended to use during this fight. The grenades cause moderate damage and the RPG inflicts high damage. The players can fire a rocket until they run out of ammo and can refill at the ammo crate. They can keep repeating this tactic until Spike finally goes down.

When Spike is trying to get through the barricade, he will try to bite the player through the windows. This fight is much harder because Spike doesn't have a weak point. The player can stock up on ammo at the ammo crate. The Bar and the Semi-Auto Shotgun are really useful in this fight. Whenever the player shoots Spike, he try to bite you. Do not let Spike destroy the barricade or the mission will be over. Shoot Spike and back away before he bites you. Repeat this tactic up until Spike falls.
