LONDON - Sshh! Don't tell your boss, but it's time for Revolution's Game of the Week. This week it's the intriguingly titled Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar, as chosen by Kerb managing director and Revolution gaming expert Jim McNiven.

Although I strive to find the most revolutionary, cutting-edge Flash games that push the boundaries of the viral games industry. Sometimes you just see a game that attracts you on name alone. ‘Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar' is one of those.

And if the name alone hasn't immediately had you clicking on the link and ignoring everything written from this point onwards, then what are you waiting for?

Fine, you're still reading and that's great (and I'm not just saying that because I'm really busy or anything!). ‘Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar' is a game that doesn't have extraordinary graphics or gameplay, but it does have a title that explains exactly what it is and what it does.

For those who need it spelling out, you play one of two dinosaurs - that shoot beams when they roar. Its a side scrolling shoot em' up that plays well enough to amuse without outstaying its welcome. In many ways its perfect Friday afternoon fodder.

Enjoy (turn the sound up for extra impact!)!
