We need a new Turok game. Despite how rough around the edges this game was, I’m still sad the sequel was cancelled /:
agreed
Deadass. I actually liked this one. Was dissapointed at the lack of Cerebral Bore......but I digress
Im all for a new Turok game for the new gen since i'm a big fan of the series. The plot should be about Turok time traveling to the past and present battling dinosaurs from the prehistoric time and dino-human hybrids in the present that are enslaving humanity. Turok 2 please!!
there was gonna be a sequel¿¿
@@hamme7786 Yes! Some scrapped concept art and a cinematic for it exists
Idc what anyone says, I loved this game and played it multiple times. I was so pissed when Disney cancelled the sequel. Sick of early access multiplayer only survival dinosaur games or Jurassic Park simulators. We need more proper campaign driven dinosaur games like this. Hell, give me a Dino Crisis 1&2 remake!
Big facts
Same, I'm really tired of all the indie/AA FPS games that just keep copy pasting Doom/Quake game design. Give us a new single player focused dino game.
There is Compound Fracture, but I haven't seen any real update for it and there was no demo during Steam Next Fest unlike Trepang 2 and Agent 64: Spies Never Die.
YES
It boggle my mind that something like Ark has had any form of success, such a jank fest and is painfully boring to boot
I can't believe we haven't seen a single dinosaur shooting single player campaign based game else than this. All the others are either park building or simulator/survival games like ARK. So tired of the bullshit
The Worst Part is the Amount of Content Cut
Lizard Soldiers (Called Jungle Stalkers") where planned, as well Vehicle sections, etc.
Also the cancellation of Turok 2, that would bring back the weird weapons and a more interesting/varied setting just HURT
Disney killed the Turok sequel and a neat looking Pirates of the Caribbean game for a crappy Tron game. Then shut down the devs when that 1 inevitably failed. Thanks Disney...
@@Gruntvc Disney has killed a lot of things, it seems to be what they do best at this point.
@@Gruntvc Tron: Evolution? That game wasn't so bad for a movie tie-in game. But I am surprised to just learn that Disney is even involved.
Big corporations almost never have good ideas when it comes to video games. When something is really really good, it's probably because the devs fought them on it and were adament about having it in the final product.
Maaaaan, I LOVED this game. Jumping on velociraptors and baby Rexes and knifing the SHIT out of them. Grabbing the small ones and cutting the up.
Blowing up the Dinos, blowing up the Rex. Man, I had a blast playing this.
The story was okay, it had some pretty stupid moments, but overall it was enough for me to not actively hate. Ron Pearlman did a good job to
For those accusing the main character for being a discount Soap McTavish, Turok 08 released a year before MW2, and we never got to see what Soap really looked like in MW1
I know, but it’s still weird that this game pretty much predicted what Soap would look like in MW2.
this game is my childhood and no matter it's flaws i love it to death. but i am happy to see a video about it
Turok 2008 is like Wolfenstein 2009: not the worst game ever made, but longtime fans of the series don't really want to talk about it.
Wolfenstein 2009 was unfairly overlooked imo, great game despite some of the modern shooter tropes it had.
@@chemergency yeah, a game that got a lot of slack I mean it's not perfect but Raven Software tried making their own spin on the Wolfenstein franchise and it honestly isn't that bad now look at them, an additional developer on any future Call of Duty titles for both multiplayer and Warzone hell even Singularity was a decent FPS they made back in 2012 and that had mixed reviews too.
I don't think that's a fair comparison, Wolf 2009 is a much better game.
Wolf 2009 is a lot better than Turok 2008, imo
Wolfenstein 2009 is so much better than turok 2008. Can't even compare them.
Turok Evolution might have been a flawed game but it truly had a God-tier arsenal, the guns were just fun to mess around and experiment with especially because they had so many alt fires.
That true even the weapons looked cool In design
Turok Evolution is my first Original Xbox game ever and I still own it till this day. I know it is not the best in the series but me and my bro played the crap out of it.
Any game that lets me plant an auto-turret to cover my dumb ass is aces in my book.
I never beat any of the Turok games, but I played the hell out of Port of Adia in Turok 2 as a kid. It's funny how a part of the very first level of an old game formed some of my fondest gaming memories.
Going through Turok 2008 was painful. I'm now playing the Nightdive re-releases of Turok 1 and 2 and having a blast.
Turok 2 is in my top five games ever list and I think it is absolutely fantastic but you ain't missing much...the ending was awful.
turok 2 scared out hell of me. I just played port of adia too. In turok 1 was until the first car boss.
Same bro, all I would do was run around the pool and never shoot the barrel to progress in the beginning of the game because I was like 5 years old 😂😂😂 in HS I played the fuck out of the first 3 Turok games. Great memories
I loved playing with the rag dolls in this game because at least in the PS3 version, the dead models would eventually freeze a few seconds after they finish their twitching animation during death. During that time, you can move the models by walking into them and because of the twitching, the dinosaur models would get so messed up like stretchy limbs and stuff like that and it would actually freeze with those stretched proportions. I remember giggling like a madman after trying my hardest to make absolute abominations with this weird freeze thing. Gosh I loved this game but I will admit it doesn’t really deserve the Turok name
This game was damn fun.
What kills it for me more than anything though, was the terrible FoV.
It had some other problems absolutely; but being stuck into an FoV where it feels like my neck is pushed forward by about ten feet was the worst of it.
Really? I feel like people just need to get better lol I never had issues with he FOV.
This game feels like someone said "We are gonna reboot Turok: Dinosaur hunter!" And nobody was given anymore context than a screenshot of google results
Yeah I hated how 95% of the enemies were just normal people. I remember reading somewhere a dev saying people want a more "realistic" sci-fi story and not what the originals were.
I remember when X-play gave this game an award for "Game Deserves an Uwe Boll Movie". I'm not joking. It does feel like the sort of thing Uwe Boll would do if he still made movies. (Thank God, he's retired.)
I don't think this game is close to bad. It would probably stand out more if it was down right bad.
The problem is if anything that it's too average. Like you said these kinds of shooters were everywhere at the time
I think the game did the dinosaurs excellently, but sadly they're only a small overall part of the game.
Other than that everything else was just really par for the course, and for whatever reason when you fight the human enemies they don't bleed but the dinosaurs spray blood everywhere
Whatever.
One thing I will always remember this game for is the final T-Rex boss fight. Because for the life of me I could not beat it...
After trying numerous times, my buddy comes over and I let him try it and he got that mother fucker first try
I was so mad
I hate how so many games of this era had an enemy faction that was so much more unique, interesting and weird like dinosaurs, giant aliens and such and yet the developers decided to shaft them so hard in favour of fighting generic soldiers with guns 90% of the time. I hated this trend so much I named it "Generic Blokes with Guns Syndrome"; Turok, Lost Planet 2, Dead Space 3 and a bunch more games did this and it just felt like a complete waste of space, time and effort when they should have focused on what's actually interesting. Like if they were gonna throw dudes at us at least make them like the replicas in FEAR, those guys are so good they made the non-human enemies a disappointment in comparison. But yeah Turok 08 ain't very good.
Aliens colonial marines was hit the HARDEST by "generic blokes with guns" syndrome. (Well, among other syndromes like "randy's rushin the game" syndrome and "more bugs than bytes of code" syndrome. Also apparently "randy illegally siphoning funds from this game for borderlands development" syndrome.)
They really could've gone harder with the dinosaur aspect of this game.
Granted, they have the giant scorpions, tree-climbers that can camouflage and that God damn giant eel; but they were so few and far between the generic enemy soldiers.
Although the final boss against the T-Rex fucking slapped.
I would have liked fewer encounters with the human soldiers and maybe on lower numbers, in return however there should have been a few more variants of them alongiside human enemies in general being more intelligent and dangerus to be actual interesting threats (cut content did had interesting stuff in regards of more interesting human enemies)
Human enemies are easier to model and mocap. It's takes too long for anything else or complex. Not to mention you need talented animators and artists. In this game the dinosaurs were used sparingly but you can tell Disney was overbearing with it's budget and time.
An xample of great enemy designs and animation in recent times would be games developed by From Software. You will see varied assortment of otherworldly enemies including humanoid shaped ones but still are unique. And this not new to from Software. They've always went crazy with their characters as early as PS1/PS2 era.
This game is my guilty pleasure. Actially, if accept it as it is (cheap sci-fi space marine shooter) it's kinda cool. I like the design and sounds of the weapons.
But yean, its tedious.
Honestly, this game reminds me of Perfect Dark Zero.
A failed reboot of a beloved N64 shooter, which guts the awesome weaponry and creative style in favor of a generic feeling all around, one that hasn’t aged well at all, complete with terrible level design, frustrating mechanics, and a lame final boss? Yeah, it all adds up.
Man, those two classics deserved so much better than what they got here. :(
Shame about the sequel being cancelled, looking at the concept art they wanted to evolve the world to be closer to the originals. Kinda like how the ape movies did it slowly
I liked this game as a kid. Came back to it in my twenties and got motion/fov sickness. Also sometimes it's impossible to dodge those rocks that large tentacle eel boss throws at you, especially the ones from ceiling. Those "mosquitoes" at the end were kinda disorienting and annoying.
Apparently you’re supposed to use the turret mode for the minigun to deal with the mosquitoes, but the game doesn’t tell you this until it locks the door behind you, and the minigun is kinda bad so no one tends to carry it around.
@@Shaun_Jones i was on my 2nd or 3rd playthrough back then when i accidentally discovered alt. fire modes....
I feel like the only guy who likes the game. I remember going through with a friend trying to stealth/run through the game with the knife
Turok was a bit ahead with the bow thing. It's just the "everything else" that wasn't.
The knife melee's weren't all to bad, each dino and human had a unique stabbing animation
The 2013 Tomb Raider game has surprisingly similar plot to this game.
It blows my mind that *this* game was published by fucking Disney.
I hate this game. Not because it was bad (it is mostly generic as you said) but more because it was such a insulting final nail in the coffin of a franchise I was a big fan of growing up. Turok 1 and 2 were superb shooter with awesome weapons, lots of gore, and interesting enemies and worlds. Turok 3 while not as impactful is still a great shooter with many of the qualities that made the past two games great.
Even Evolution had aspects of that Turok greatness I loved despite it being such a flawed experience. But this games had none of it and instead tried to chase trends.
Sorry for the rant. I was a very passionate fan of this series back in the day.
If this game wasn't call Turok it probably would have gone over better. The Devs were banking on the name alone to drive sales. Hell 95% of the enemies were just normal humans.
I remember getting the game informer for this and being so hyped. When I got my ps3 this was the first game I bought for it and I loved it. I liked how cheesy it is and the gruff and gritty characters
QTE final bosses really drag down the whole experience. I'm ok with finishing the boss off with a QTE but not the whole fight being that. The one game that ends with a QTE that was actually good is Space Marine. I would have preferred a real fight with Nemeroth but tackling him off a skyscraper and punching his face repeatedly on the way down then crushing his head was really cool
I loved that this game had Dilphosaurus as the medium-sized carnivore between the raptors and rexes, wasn’t expecting that as Jurassic park made everyone think it’s small and spits acid.
Aww MAN I loved this game as a kid. I thought it was phenomenal and it gave me good scares and thrills. Yesterday I watched What Went Wrong With Turok and realised how far away from brilliant this game actually was all things told, but even with the shoddy arsenal and lackluster story I still found this to be a worthwhile play. Im going to have to rerun the game and see what I think now as an adult.
I remember playing it when I was like 9 or 10, and thought it was the coolest thing ever. Hell the missions with the Giga and Momma Scarface alone scared the piss out of me at the time. It’s a shame you can’t really find it anywhere anymore, I’d love to give it another go.
I remember i played the demo a load of times, probably 20+. Really liked it and wished I picked it up back in the day, but I was 12 and had no money for games back then.
This was the first game I purchased when I got my ps3 for Christmas, even though it’s a little lackluster and the ending and main villain weren’t very memorable , I had loads of fun playing it. whether it was making fun of the guy who screams “help me!” when the velociraptor attacks him or trying to get through a mission while only doing melee kills. this game brought me tons of fond memories. I replay it from time to time and still have the same disc and case too.
I never got past that spider tank boss fight, no matter what I did it's splash damage would knock me over then while I was stuck in that animation it would fire again and I'd be dead before I got back up. I remember trying every inch of the area looking for cover but nope, no matter where I was the splash damage would knock me down and bring me out into the open to be killed by the second shot. So fucking irritating, especially since I really enjoyed the dinosaur fighting bits and just wanted to get to them.
I can never get past the eel fight No I couldn't tell how much damage I was doing And I died constantly trying to figure that out
@@moscowvicent831I know it's late, but you can easily get past the eel fight by equipping the knife and spam the dodge move when it's using the rock throw attack.
@@miosignore7137 wait really
@@miosignore7137 but how do i damage it?
@@moscowvicent831 when it returns underwater after doing the rock throwal attack, run to the crack from where gas is coming from and then switch to the flame thrower.
When the creature is doing its bite attack, shoot flame at the crack to make the gas explode, but only when the beast is close enough.
Nice, found the channel recently and have been binging your videos the last couple days. Ever heard of a shooter I remember from the early/mid-2000s called "Vietnam: Line of Sight"? I remeber it as quite... challenged.
It was a lot of fun to be there for the stream to make this vid, I can't wait for the next stream :D
It's cool how you never stop trying to explain the importance of FOV options on PC even when you know some random person's going to come into your comments and make fun of you for it.
I'm sure there are many more folks who've actually listened, and maybe said nothing, but understand it better than they did before.
To me it's also kinda like being able to rebind your controls on PC -- not as necessary on a console where all the controller buttons are kind of mostly in reach all the time, but a keyboard and mouse have a lot more stuff going on, that can be different depending on what kind of keyboard and mouse they are, so you need to let players account for it.
FOV accounts for similar personal differences in PC setup and, honestly, sometimes just genetics.
So it sounds like we’ll never get another one if Disney was behind this one.
13:10
Compi photobombs the takedownanimation. 🤣
I remember finding this game at a block bluster in 2009 for my Xbox 360 & it was annoying with the motion blur plus the knock down, man I hope the next game instinction does well because God we need more dinosaurs FPS games
This should have been its own thing, with some QOL improvements, and a reduction on the quicktime events.
I distinctly remember that the knife was really powerful in the first Turok game as well though specifically because it just dealt a lot of damage if you risked getting up close to hit an enemy with it. I remember being able to one-shot or two-shot most common enemies with the knife and that you actually got rewarded for doing so as well as enemies slain with the knife would drop a pickup that permanently increased your max health.
I love the Time Splitters main menu music in the background 👍
Posting this vid just as I wake up huh. 3 hours of sleep don't fail me now.
I’ve been checking your channel over and over again for this video! Nice 👌🏼
This game was a major disappointment for me when it came out. I was a huge fan of the N64 games. I thought
Turok (2008) would be like Turok 3.
I remember watching those knife montages back on the montage days
Thanks for making me remember this. Darn you Jarek!
Since universal owns the ip now, I'm really hoping for them to do a doom 2016 style remake that keeps the absurdity and brutality
anyone know how to get turok on PC? I've been trying to find ways but everything seems so sketchy ;-;
How did you get this to run dude? It keeps crashing on startup for me.
I played this a long time ago and I remember getting pissed off at the last boss since I would be standing by the bosses tail and a instant death cut scene of me getting eaten by the dinosaur played and I would have to start over, was pretty frustrating and that's the biggest thing I remember about it
The fuckin creature in the cave honestly took me a month to kill, though i was 7 years old at the time, I remember getting my first rage quits from it
I just love that the main characters name is Turok when it’s not a name in the other games, it’s a title.
It’s unironically the “John Halo” meme.
I also like how he looks like Soap before we actually saw his face.
What's the song in the background at 15:18 - 15:36 ? It sounds so familiar
The Timesplitters music for the FOV silliness was a nice touch!
one of the 2 games that i got for my new 360 when i was 10. The T-Rex always intimated me when playin. holds a special place in my heart, love it even if its generic.
I still have a soft spot for turok 2008. Overall i wish we have a new turok game in this current generation.
there is a human enemies blood mod (VFX only) for the game :)
it also makes the blood effect appear on wood, but it's at the very least just fine
That's not Kane, that's Ethan Thomas from condemned 2.
as a turok fan it stopped getting good at evolution, evolution still kind of kept that turok feeling it with the dinosaur humans and cool weapons but this game is just a weird game. it’s like the current saints row reboot being called saints row even though it has nothing to do with the original 2. makes me wonder what it would be like if the boss hunted down dex.
The only that bothered me about this game was the ending.one I think three survivors was too few for what they started out with.it should of bin five if you ask me and yes Slade dident enough of a story ark.they could of had his friend gonzales show up later and have turok save him.they definitely could of done that he dident die on screen.they had us asume he was fed to the t-rex baby's while turok was more of the t-rex baby's.they really cheated out the t-rex baby thing
Idk why but i had an absolute blast with the mp in this game. It did pvpve super well with dinos in the fights and really having to be sneaky
Me too, man it was SO fun!
the only thing i know is the point where i stopped playing this game and never touched it again....at some point you ride an what it feels like huge endless elevator with enemy waves always swarming in...at that thing i just bailed and left the disc to rot in some random corner. but other then that elevator i remember nothing.
They need to do a remake of Turok evolution with modern graphics and redone game mechanics!
All I remember from this game is bring stuck on the last boss fight with the T-Rex with my cousins unable to kill it. We spent hours shooting it till the arena was out of every grenade and every bullet and spammed the explosive turret. Still wouldn't go down to do the kill animation. We looked it up and it can sometimes glitch out and become invincible. So we gave up and played Street Fighter to relax.
8:48 love the blizzard mountain in the background.
bro i have been binging on all of these dark video games reviews you've done, timeshift, gheist, dark sector. all of these weird never to be heard from again games that i played all throughout my childhood brings back so much nostalgia. its inane haha. only one youre missing to the mix is bionic commando
Playing through Crysis Remastered and Far Cry 2 again. 2007-2008 games were truly something else. I may never have played Turok but I understand the nostalgia of those who experienced that level of immersion and experimental creativity for the first time.
"experimental creativity" are absolutely not the words for this game and it definitely can't be compared to crysis or far cry 2.
@@Jarekthegamingdragon My apologies, I thought I had deleted this comment when I first watched the video. I have heard many accounts over the years praising the game 'Turok', with none ever specifying which one in the series it was. Having assumed that the beloved features talked about came from this iteration, I compared it to other greats of the era.
This is certainly the most egregious comment I have made prior to actually watching the review. Now knowing that definitely Turok (2008) and possibly Evolutions couldn't have been the ones referenced, I am looking forward to further reviews of the series to learn why the name became a video game classic.
I remember how excited I was for this game when I was younger. I always loved dinosaurs as a kid & this game seemed like it was right up my alley. I didn't know about the old Turok games since I was mostly a PlayStation & PC gamer, I didn't know anything about the old series. I found out about this game from an old gaming magazine and I thought it looked awesome. A badass with guns Vs a bunch of dinosaurs. What could go wrong? I played it on PC & quickly forgot all about it. Then I watch reviews for the game and that old memory of this game kept coming back.
I feel like Turok could use a doom eternal touch with dinosaurs and human hybrid dinosaurs
Turok 2 from 1998 had 20+ weapons including underwater combat ones and had 30+ enemy types from many races.
Most levels had a unique"race" and many of them had different AIs.
GFX was state of the art at release but the performance was very low.
Eg. certain enemies could scream and run away from you if you had a powerful weapon. Some enemies were dump and brain driller weapons would not work against them.
The game had a very good location dmg system and the gore was amazing arm could fall off. The armored part could bounce off bullets and deal reduced dmg. Still holds up in 2022.
Zombie could lose his legs and become a crawling type.
Boss fights were good and multi-phased ones.
10 years later we get a hp regenerator generic fps with like 10 enemy variants,(I think 5 different soldier variants) and 5-6 weapon types.......none of them are that unique like a nuke, plasma sniper rifle, plasma Gatling gun, sci-fi beam shotgun, brain driller weapon, sci-fi stun grenade pod........from older Turok games.
Miss the dude bro era of shooters, felt B movie like and it's funny af that they took themselves so seriously.
I remember liking it as a kid, but now even THINKING about its fov makes my head hurt
Turok 2008 is a functional shooter but not near the same league as Turok 1-3. Turok 2 was the series gold standard though-huge graphic leap for the time, massive and interesting level design, incredible soundtrack, huge roster of enemies with unique actions and interactions giving them all a unique 'personality'. Also the weapons were really inventive-the Cerebral bore is often mentioned but the others were great as well and brutal. The Razorwind, Firestorm canon,, Warblade, charge-dart rifle and mag-60 were all great and had a weight and appropriateness to the setting that few other video game weapon sets have. The story of Tuork 2 was fascinating and combined with the scope of the levels, made the lost land feel like a really unique setting where primitive human societies sat alongside ancient non-humans races mixed in with super high tech aliens and dimension hopping lovecraftian horrors looming in the background. Seriously, the lost land as a setting has near infinite story telling potential.
Yet, Turok 2008 inexplicably decided to ditch all that set up by T2 onwards and just settle for the bland space marine on dino world plot. Its creative bankruptcy is 08s real flaw. It just screams 'mediocre' compared to everything that came before even compared to the likes of Turok Evolution which was a bad game but at the very least tried to keep to the spirit of the setting and the imagination of the originals even if it failed in execution. Turok 2008 just comes across as the developers not giving a damn about the legacy of the series and anyone who was a Turok fan can really feel that when they see/play the game and it is super super disappointing.
Couldn’t have said better myself.
Turok 2008 also had voice actors like Donnie Walburgh (Shepard), Timothy Olyphant (Cowboy) early career before he was known for Cobb Vanth in The Book of Boba Fett and Mark Rolston (Cole) known for playing Drake in Aliens.
I happen to love this game. I find it so bad, it’s good.
You were channeling Egoraptor with that "Most of the game is just...WAITING!"
Anyone get flashing red and yellow after armory explosion? regardless of legacy driver or direct play turned on.
I remember playing a demo and even that short experience was a huge waste of time.
Ron Pearlmans character looks like a angry space marine Letho from The Witcher.
This game was definitely a guilty pleasure for me.
Anyone knows how to play this game in PC?
Nothing else matters about this game except the damn gladiator battles that would be had online!
If you didn’t know, people would gather in a circle and two warriors would enter the middle and fight it out with only knives.
It was so intense and fun, I miss this game so much. The flaws can be overlooked for me, I don’t play games cuz they’re perfect, I play them because they’re fun
I remember this game came out during the 360/PS3 era, and at the time i thought it looked cool cause it was a graphical overhaul from the old N64 Turok games, but ugh going back now this game aged so poorly and i didn't realize how mediocre it was. I think it was because at the time 2008 is when I really started to get interested in the Xbox 360 after playing games like Halo 3, Bioshock, Assassin's Creed, etc. Looks like I'll leave this one in the past then lol
Okay, this is a good review and I wanna congratulate you for doing it, but around 8:30 you say that Slade is mad at Turok for no reason? But even in the clip you show, Slade explicitly states that he believes Turok screwed over Wolf Pack, his previous squad. So it makes sense for Slade to be mad at Turok before getting to know him, bc Turok’s reputation is that of a traitor.
Otherwise I agree!
They never showed that, he had no reason to believe that. He stated that his brother died once, that was it. You show, don't tell. They didn't give any real reason for him to be that upset.
I remember this game when I was like 10. Only played the demo on PS3. It looked cool AF and always wanted to play it. I never did. Now that I see this. I'm glad to have known that I didn't miss out on anything and saved my parents $60 game.
Turok and Turok 2 are both two of my favourite videogames of all time. I have so many nostalgic memories from playing those games when they came out and have continued to play them to this day. I personally rate Turok 2 above Goldeneye as far as N64 FPS games go. I have enjoyed the other Turok games that have come out on various consoles but none have come close to being anywhere near as good as the first two.
With that being said I did enjoy the PS3 game and feel like it gets more hate than it deserves but I am also somebody who genuinely loved Duke Nukem Forever so what do I know?!
This is random but I actually thought that the Resistance series on PS3 was closer to capturing something like Turok 2 than the later Turok games were, minus the dinosaurs.
I would love to see a new Turok that is comparable to the earlier games and I would love to see a Turok movie but you can be certain Hollywood would ruin it and we would end up with something atrocious starring the rock.😅
For some reason I can't remember where the death sound that plays at 16:08 is from. I have watched so many of Jarek's videos and I can't remember which game that is from.
Half Life 1 scientist.
@@TheDittoMan I know this is late, but thank you!
Yeah, one of the most disappointing games I've ever played I rented this on PS3 back in College as my first time playing it and it was just mediocre it's not a Turok game like you said they could have made any FPS out of this game not besmirch the Turok IP, but this just became one of the most tedious FPS games I've played yet and like you I've played hundreds if not thousands at this point, I even had a mate play through it on his PC a few years back and he was left disappointed compared to the original Turok trilogy and hell even Turok Evolution which had great multiplayer modes too even Rage Wars was better than this Reboot and that's saying something.
I remember beating this game with just the knife lol. Aside from boss fights and other areas that needed guns, I always used the knife.
Disney really mucked things up with this game. They put constraints on creative freedom to keep the violence and gore limited along with story.
I remember playing the shit out of this when it first came out.
I played the absolute shit out of this when I was young. I remember nothing at all from it, not one weapon or map, totally amnesiac.
I was wondering if you could cover Severed Steel. It just got released about a week ago and it looks really cool!
Severed Steel released quite a while ago on PC
YES!! I was waiting for this video, played it once from GameStop as a kid and completely forgot about the game and recently thought about giving it another try
The best part is, I completely agree with everything you said, I remember putting the game away and taking it back a few days later after playing maybe 30 minutes of it.
I want a modern remake of turok evolution that's my favorite turok game and how I remember the series the most, I would play it with my dad on my ps2 as a kid now I'm 26... good times
Funniest thing I remember about this game is that there was people that camped for this game’s midnight release and like deadass it wasn’t even highly sought after. I remember enjoying the game tho, but yeah, just another bro/dude game from late 2000s. Resistance was where it was at back then
If only they stuck with the Lost Land and expanded on it. But then again, Turok 2 seemed have some interesting concepts...
This game reminds me of stale soda, the flavor is still there but it just isn’t the same without the fizz.
How the hell did you get this game?
It's so weird seeing gameplay of this, I think I still have this game on my PS3
