I remember being disappointed when Giganoto came along and knocked my favorite, T-rex, off it's pedestal as biggest theropod. But, even though Giganotosaurus, Spinosaurus, and some of the others may have been be bigger in absolute size, T-rex is still superior in some ways to these newer carnivores, such as having more powerful jaws, better eyesight, and a larger brain, so I'll console myself with that.
I find it kind of ironic that T. rex, formerly renowned as THE badass bone-crushing, meat-rending, mindless killing machine, would now come to try to hang-on to its title as mightiest of the dinos (metaphorically speaking) on the strength of a bigger brain and superior intelligence!
