That reminds me, I picked up the PC version of the first two Turok games but still haven't got around to playing them. I'm mostly familiar with Turok by the comic series, but I admit from the changes in setting I've heard the new game has, it really doesn't interest me. Changing the title character into a soldier rather than a native american just bugged me; where's the originality? Haven't we like fifty million generic soldier video game protagonists already? Not that I paid much attention to the story of the other games, but it just irked me, y'know. It could very well be a potentially good game, but without any means (or interest) of playing it I'll just remain cranky and old-fashioned. Razza frazza.
Turok 2 was awesome, though, especially in multi-player - my friends and I killed so many weekends with it. I don't think Evolution got the same buzz from us, though. My brother wasn't enamoured with the single-player mode, feeling it was just a rip-off of Halo. I'd need more experience with it to judge. |

After looking it up it seems to be a reboot of the series.
Speaking of the comics, I actually do own a copy of the first Turok Dinosaur Hunter comic. ( this one). Found it in a flea market years ago. Nothing else though.
I don't remember if I ever finished Turok Evolution, it was a lot different than Turok 2 though. Though Turok 2 was the first one I ever played, and that tends to affect your views a bit. |

Turok Evolution was the first I played. To think I was only 11 when I played it. |
