Turok Turok Turok....remeber those days when your game was just great??? When you were on the N64? Well they have been attempting to revive you for over 10 years now and sadly to no avail. I must say that this lastest Turok isn't too bad...unfortunately it isn't that good either. Your Turok(if that wasn't obvious) and you've landed(more or less crashed of coarse) on a planet that is seemingly prehistoric and if you know Turok that means they're are DINOSAURS!!! Except in this Turok they're aren't many of the Dinos to fight. 70% of your fights are with this military that is occupying that planet as are you and your men. Your storyline is very bland and generic and seems like your run of the mill FPS story(Id compare it to TimeShift but that is the worst game on 360 currently). Let us run down your average FPS and see how Turok does....guns with no particular differences? check. A "save the world" style campaign? check. Certain promised aspects of the game that a few far and in between? check. Hero with a mohawk, facial hair or in a suit of some kind? check. A knife or side weapon that has very little if any use. check. So Turok is 5/5 on my scale of bad FPS making. This game isn't all terrible though. In parts where your stuck in a firefight with those military guys and a random T[-Rex comes outta no where you can lay some rounds on him and get him to attack your enemies thinking it was them. Unfortunately this happens very little yet is the highlight of the entire game. This game is pretty good in graphics and gunplay but lacks the Turok experience...then again every Turok has lacked since the original on N64.
