Acrocanthosaurus atokensis or ‘the high spined lizard from Atoka County’ named for where it was found and its most distinctive trait, was the largest carnivore in North America when it lived, and remains the fifth largest theropod discovered in North America to date. At a length of about 11.5 meters — a little more than 38 feet — and a weight approaching six metric tons, it was a member of the Carcharodontosauridae although it lacked some of the defining characteristics of more derived Carcharodontosaurs like Carcharodontosaurus or Giganotosaurus. As mentioned, it had a series of extremely tall spines growing out of its back, with muscle attachments that suggest a ridge of muscle possibly anchoring a fatty hump.

Acrocanthosaurus lived between 125 and 100 million years ago, which means no, it could never have met or fought Tyrannosaurus. In fact, the most contemporary Tyrannosaurid we know of from that time period is Dilong paradoxus, which lived about 126 million years ago, or the closely related Eotyrannus lengi, which lived during the Aptian which is the same geological era as Acrocanthosaurus, and which wouldn’t even have come up to the animal’s hip. Basically, at the time this dinosaur lived, it would have eaten any extant Tyrannosaurids in one or two bites. Acrocanthosaurus teeth have been found near the remains of the massive Macronarian Sauroposeidon, suggesting it may have hunted or scavenged from these behemoth relatives of Giraffatitan.

This is the Queue. Here’s hoping y’all talked about dinosaurs this week because I’m super in the mood.

This week, Matt Rossi and Joe Perez dedicate the podcast to exploring, you guessed it, more of the lore and story of Diablo 2.

Not every game has DLC, of course, but I think Diablo 3 did when it introduced the Necromancer class as a downloadable pack.

Rules are almost a necessity for games, but especially for role playing games, where you're essentially playing make believe but you want to avoid the I shot you!

United in Stormwind, the current Hearthstone expansion, changed the game in a way we hadn't seen in a very long time.

I think I need more coffee.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we’ll stop wallowing in ennui long enough to answer.

A couple weeks back, the Beasts of Prodigum bonus event for Torghast premiered, and like the other two bonus events that change up Torghast in different ways, it came and went with little excitement.

I'm not limiting this one to single-player games, because quite a few people play MMOs more or less as solo players.

The Chains of Domination story campaign is finished, but that doesn't mean Renown isn't still important.

I think I’ve found my new favorite power combination in Torghast. Mages can increase the number of Mirror Images that they have, and there’s an Anima power that makes all of those Mirror Images smarter. Suddenly, I’ve got ten versions of me winding up and just absolutely cranking Greater Pyroblasts into bosses and elites. It was glorious!

Plus, look how great we all look. While they may not be infinitely uncountable, they are definitely some of the greatest guys I’ve ever met.

While I try to find a challenge worthy of all these foxes, it’s time for — The Queue.
