GREAT JAGGI:

Concept: I like that Capcom tried to make the 3rd generation raptors a bit more interesting. A stockier build makes him more intimidating, and they clearly wanted him to have more of an alpha presence than the previous dromes. 8/10

Design: Blows the doors off the old raptors. I rather like the exotic mix of purples, oranges and creams. The variance in texture (smooth scales, knobby scales, and fur) flesh him out a lot better. His thick middle claw is interesting. 9/10

Sound: His variety of calls and barks are awesome, and give him a lot of character. The music is exotic and wild, while matching the fast, hectic nature of the battle. 9.5/10

Gameplay: Miles better than the previous raptors. He goes into rage, has breakable parts, moves that are actually different from the minions, and he limps, all to make him feel like more of a boss monster and less of a pushover. 8/10

Equipment: Great armour for starting off. The weapons are a nice break from the crappy starter set too. 8/10

Overall: As one of the first monsters in 3rd gen, he does a lot to showcase how much the bar has been raised as far as monsters go this gen. He's an inviting challenge, and rewards newcomers with some decent armour and weapons. 9/10
