Another FPS...but with dinosaurs!
Turok is mainly a FPS but it ain't no COD4/HALO 3.I played the game through three times on each difficulty and it seemed to be good when I first started playing.However,as I went on it became more of a chore for me to complete this game.The dino's in the game could have been good but they made the game too difficult at some stages.On one level I had fallen into a hole under a mountain and had to find my comrade and get out through the tunnels of the mountain. The hard part was when I came across ten big dino's and i had limited ammo,okay you have your knife and a couple of flares but when you have five of the buggers on you at once it ain't easy.Overall the gameplay was the same old story and I had played games like it many a time.
Graphically the game is pretty good,nothing special but pretty solid.I might get stick for this but i think the characters were modelled on the gears of war characters.They had the same look about them.
I played Turok online... and it was utterly rubbish. I spent ages waiting for a game to enter and it turned out rubbish.If you play it online then you will know what I mean.
My overall view is that Turok is a game that tried to be as good as the likes of COD4 and Halo 3 but clearly never stood a chance.It tryed to add a twist to the game "oh look i'm not just shooting people i'm shooting dinosaurs". I would say to anyone mad enough to consider buying this game to borrow/rent it first.
