Games that let you play as a Dinosaur
Playing as a dinosaur has to be a native option, no mods. Riding on one as a mount does not count, it must be the actively controlled participant. Bonus points if they aren't a boring, abandoned in early access, multiplayer survival game or Jurassic Park related.

Humans who can turn into 5 dinosaurs or 2 stupid primates, a Sabretooth, and some val haazak looking fucker. Vice versa is also an option but why would you want to go from dinosaur to human?

Capture and breed dinosaurs and use them as units
5 campaigns and only 2 of them force you to be a boring human, Sara Harding from the titled movie and a generic human hunter. Imagine prefering those over Compy, Raptor, and T-Rex
Also the loading screens and FMVs GO SO HARD

Super Mario Odyssey (Yoshi and the realistic dino)
@NOWITSREYNTIME17 I was getting too lost in the sauce when I've now forgotten 2 very easy entries. I even mentioned Odyssey to myself while this list was in CONCEPTION!
Tekken 3 if you count Gon as a dinosaur
@VioletGogles Gon is stated to be a dinosaur in the manga source, so he counts
