Killing Dinosaurs on my Xbox 360; What more could you possible want?

User Rating: 8 | Turok X360

Turok is a fantastic FPS that offers constant gore at the satisfaction of killing Dinosaurs. The immense size of each level is astounding; however the same set pieces seem to crop up again and again. For example, Giant tree, some long grass, big rock, some more grass; but once you're actually playing the game, the repetitive side of things seems to vanish. Each weapon has its own secondary fire. For example, the shotgun has a Flare that can lure enemies such as dinosaurs away from you and towards other enemies. The aiming system could be better, as weapons such as the bow are slightly "Trickier" to master.

The multiplayer offers online Deathmatches, Capture the Flag and Team Deathmatches. Each of the intense maps has Dinosaurs and/or Giant Scorpions, both of which are extremely useful for luring enemies towards…

The multiplayer also offers three highly addictive co-op maps that are playable for up to four people. A tactical approach is crucial in each of these maps; as unlike Halo 3, you only have a Limited amount of lives.

Overall, Turok's single player campaign may be short, but if played on a higher difficulty, the game will last significantly longer. The AI from some of the soldiers could be improved slightly, as they all look and act identically which adds to the repetitive aspect again. The part of Turok I personally found most enjoyable was sneaking through the long grass with the knife and silently picking off enemies one by one. The knife shows a fantastically brutal cutscene when used, showing Turok repeatedly stabbing into faces of men and Dinosaurs alike. Different approaches with the knife show different cutscenes which makes the knife one of the most "Fun" weapons in the game.

If you like FPS games then you will Love Turok.
