it is the poster boy for average shooter.

graphics are decent, some of the guns are fun but they don't have the greatness of old Turok weapons. The story is meh, the characters are even more meh... stabbing dinos in the brain is fun for a while... the co-op levels are a blast but there are too few of them and the MP is nothing special

the graphics are poor... they just are.. really bland textures and boring environments, the story is kinda dull but it holds the game together and at the end of the day it doesnt really matter cos the only good thing about the game is killing dinosaurs. the guns are ok but again nothing amazing... i just never felt satisfied with them except for the bow which is pretty awesome but they really need to give you more ammo for it, as for stealth, there is the ability to creep about but the majority of the time you will be in full on attacks... which is a shame, but yeah, kiling dinosaurs is still fun, though the multiplayer is really not fun, nor the co-op.

all in all i would say its half decent, iv played worse but iv played much better... if you just want a shooter to mess around on then i wouldnt pick this but if you are a turok fan then you possibly would enjoy it. also, all your teammates are really cliche'd to death and none of them are particularly likeable, so if you want a decent story and characters you wont be impressed.

hope that helps

if you are talking about the new turok game, it is a generic shooter, graphics are ok, and story is meh... but if your talking about the turok series, like the first and second games.

then those are great games, with wonderful weapons... though the graphics are not as good as the newer one, but the gameplay and atmosphere and mood, were much better..

honestly the new turok to me feels more like a first person shooter version of dino crisis, more than an actual turok game,

and it takes alot of hits to kill someone or something in turok, regardless of difficulty, higher difficulties, even more hits to kill them... hope that helps.

It was an average shooter. Nothing special. If they worked on the graphics a lot more, it would have been better.

well it does have a few glitches, but the newer turok i dont much care for, i prefer the older games, where it was linear mostly, but at times very open.. if that makes since, and the original turok had like 7-8 levels, all of which were huge, the second turok game (seeds of evil) was also about 7-8 levels, better graphics, and huge levels as well.. and better music in the second game... but the turoks that came after the first (turok: dinosaur hunter, and turok: seeds of evil) were not that good in my opinion

lol You don't want our opinion but that's all you can get. You can't really be objective about something like this, not everybody enjoyed the game in the same way. It is a little different than olschool FPS games, like when you climb a ladder it goes into 3rd person view and also when you perform a knife kill, you just get behind an enemy that doesn't notice you and it will appears on the screen (you'll see something like a mouse and which button to press) when you can make the kill. It doesn't take many hits to kill an enemy, but it also depends on the weapon, like with the bow you can kill with one hit though it depends where you hit the enemy and how soon you release the arrow, and also you can kill with one hit with the knife.

They AI for enemy soldiers is not so great, I mean when you kill one and another soldiers sees it he goes to cover but then he just waits there to get killed. With the dinosaurs is more challenging but it's just easier to kill them with the knife.

Hope this helps.:) Also read the gamespot review. I think it is a good game, I've enjoyed it, and it deserved more than a 6 or whatever score it got on consoles.
