Am I the only one that has noticed that they are Archiopterix not Velociraptor?
Last time I checked Velociraptor's didn't have feathers, trying to think back to Jurassic Park.
I have just noticed that they have issued a statement on their website about exactly what I have just mentioned:
Regarding the controversy surrounding the recently released trailer for our upcoming interactive entertainment experience, "Off-Road Velociraptor Safari" (ORVS), we at Flashbang Studios wish to disseminate the following statement. It may appear we have contradicted the established understanding of what exactly a Velociraptor looks like, particularly with regard to the presence of feathers. This has caused some confusion among viewers of the trailer, who may be more familiar with depictions of Velociraptors found in film and popular media. However, current scientific consensus indicates that Velociraptor mongoliensis, and indeed likely all dromaeosaurids, possessed feathers similar to those of modern birds.
All i have to say is, whatever, they looked cooler in Jurassic Park, don't change it just for the sake of being accurate. I would much rather run over the mean looking guys from JP than the cute looking blue and green ones they show.
