Well theres alot of hate going around but I loved it! I think the main turn off for ppl was the cave section and the weakness of the smg, but after you exit the cave and acquire the shotgun, and later on the pulse cannon, added with the very cool bow and ofc the knife kills it becomes ALOT of fun. I went through that demo many times, sometimes I go all stealth, or sometimes I go run and gun, regardless its definitely worth a shot in my book.
1-Cave level pissed me off.On your objective it says you have to follow your partner,well I found him but he is not moving an inch.Other than that he provided me some cover,lit some dark areas with his flare but thats it.
2-Enemy AI is terrible.I shot those **** with my shotgun and they just fell on their asses and died.I also killed many dinos with knife (which included mini game executions) but feel free to check out their corpses then you'll see some glitches.
3-I felt like playing a ps2 game on my ps3 for **** sake!!!
No love from me... I hated it. The stealth kills were lame... I mean, they looked good, but there was too many repeated once you stabbed another bloke. What I also didn't like, was when you walked towards a dead dinosaur and just push it like nothings there. The N64 version was better. You stepped over the dinosaur and the gameplay was awesome. I think this game will get a 7-8.5 rating.
The demo was ok, but it didn't blow me away or anything. I just wasn't all that surprised about anything in that game. The knife kills were the same thing over again and that was boring, not many weapons, and it's just killing dinosaurs the whole time. I might rent the full version and see what it's like then.
Mm yes, i dare say my good man that this game was rather rudimentary... quite disapointing and absolutely vulgar, Now, Wheres my monacle and vintage Merlot... all these profound expressions of distaste has fatigued me so.
.. /sarcasm. I enjoyed it, i play games to entertain myself not find some big social message each time i boot up the god damn Playstation. This game was entertaining Period, and if you're too numb to "find" your way out of the cave area which is pretty much just an enclosed path way that basically gives you one way to go. then stop complaining and repeat Pre-school.

Let's think about this from a logical stand point just for fun :P okay.. your standard Sub Machine Gun usually fires 9mm rounds so that the recoil is more managable under the rapid rate of fire. So, let's assume that THIS SMG uses 9mm parabellum rounds as well, you're fighting dinosaurs. they're scales could be armor plated to some degree like a crocodile for all we know. lol.
I found the demo to be decent but nothing mind-blowing or must-have about it. I could see this being a game I pick up a few months later when the price drops. One thing that bothered me was I felt that the firearms didnt have enough "kick" to them.
Well i do wear Glasses on occasion but thats just to help me see, Contrary to popular belief people who wear glasses use them to see better, NOT gain X-ray vision. :P
I liked the demo alot. the knife kills where sweet. Being in the cave was cool. the only bad thank I saw was that your Allie in the beginning was very stupid. The second Allie you get is smart. I'll pick it up after DMC4.
This demo was fantastic, I just love playing it over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over again. :D Who else is going to buy this game?
The demo was ok, but they have really chagned turok from its orginal formula. The first turok was more about exploration, adventure with paced action. I loved the original Turok, its seems like they have changed the game to more of your standard FPS, at least that is the impression I got from the demo. I think with the amount of FPS games on the market this is not a great move.
It's hard coming from COD4 and how it plays to something like turok, also parting with my last impression of enjoying the old N64 turok aside from the lame nuke weapon proved to be difficult.
I felt it was try to be to hip and trendy. Going for that G.I. Joe Extreme or GeoW look for character models. Stealth felt thrown together and not really thought out. It was really just a basic crouch and being behind your target nothing more really.
AI of the enemies and BOTs was lacking also
not a buy for me at all but I might rent it when it comes out, hopefully it'll prove me wrong and prove to be entertaining, I'd like to see the franchise transfer to new generations of console in a good way. Hope springs eternal I guess.
I really hated it... gave it 2 chances of attracting me but it scared me away for good. It felt too much like a generic FPS, and a mediocre one if I may add.
Didn't enjoy it at all. It did however have a nice surprise and intense combat with the Dinosaurs, but killing those normal dudes were so boring. The shooting is okay. It's not my cup of tea...

i think turok was fun, but i can see the overly easy knife and shotgun kills gettin boring. It would have been even cooler if they added something where you can like skin dinosaurs and put designs together for battling online. Also, if they had online, if you get like a 5 kill streak, you could like become a dinosaur and eat people and throw their corpses at other people. Just some suggestions.
And i think my demo is screwed up, because i cant move anywhere after i kill the mother dinosaur.
Yeah I gave it a go and didnt like it too be honest. I usually give a game half an hour, and by that stage it should either be awesome, intersting or at least getting there. I did not feel turok was any good at in terms of keeping me interested. The knife seems more lethal than the guns and I guess its balancing in that regard for me was crap.
Good graphics but then what doesnt look ok these days...
Ok, I finally played it. I can see it being a fun game, but I wasn't impressed with the demo by any stretch. The graphics of the cave looked rather last gen, and the dinosaur fighting was very frustrating since I couldn't turn around fast enough to see one before it jumped on me. I'm pretty sure this stuff will be better so I'm not going to write it off. What probably was the worst thing for me to see was the dialogue. "I'll have that...", "uh... look out...". I know they are supposed to be soldiers, but they sound clinically depressed.lol. I'll probably still rent this game and give it a chance.
agreed, I don't think anyone should write the game off yet, I've played a few bad demos and the full verision of the game turned out to be great. I'll check back once some reviews start coming
Knife kills get repetitive for me, but that's probably cause it's just the demo, and is it supposed to end? Because if so, I can't find the end, I just run around the open forest with nothing popping out, oh and the Unreal Engine does look pretty bad.
Me and my friend actually laughed till we cried the demo was so bad for us. Although I suspect some of the hate was prolly becuz we played the DMC4 demo right before we gave Turok a shot.
do anyone remember playing the turok games on N64? turok 2 was my first turok game I had played , I haven't played the other 3 but turok 2 was the best especailly with cheats. but this new turok sucks and can't beat the old turok games on N64.
[QUOTE="stolz1975"]turok was great on n64americahellyeah
I agree 100%
same here, its a real shame that this crap is what they call Turok now.
I totally agree that Turok Dinosaur hunter on the N64 was THE best the series has to offer... but you have to admit that this latest Turok game isn't AS bad as the one on PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube.
I have yet to finish the entire demo because its pretty challenging and i suck. But i enjoy the relatively simple shooting mechanics.
