Pleasing Tourists

"Unlike with most dinosaurs, you don't have much choice when assembling an exhibit around Acrocanthosaurus. It hails from the early Cretaceous period, along with only three other dinosaurs. To please dino nerds, you have to match it with a Carcharodontosaurus, Ouranosaurus, or Spinosaurus; any others will offend a dino nerd's historical sensibilities. Fun lovers, of course, won't want anything to do with Acrocanthosaurus and the carnage it can produce in an herbivore pen. On the other hand, thrill seekers will want to see an Acrocanthosaurus rip through Ouranosaurus, Styracosaurus, and any other herbivores. They may even want to see it go head to head with other carnivores for dominance. Pit it against Allosaurus and Tyrannosaurus for some epic battles." ~Prima's Official Strategy Guide

Sexual Dimorphism

Thanks to the Concept Art of Acrocanthosaurus seen in the Credits of the game, we can see a possible Sexual Dimorphism, or just an early design of Acrocanthosaurus, differently from the final version, this design has duller colors, closer to a shade of tan and sand, with dark brown stripes and dots by the back spine, this version also lacks the white patterns on the head, and has green eyes rather than orange.

While the final game version is a more vibrant yellow, with red stripes that go by orange-ish back spines, orange eyes, and the white patterns on the head.

It's unclear if  that was in fact intended Sexual Dimorphism planned for the game, as we may never get the answer.
