Okay…. Just the fact the checkpoints are milesssss away from each other makes it not worthy of anyone’s time unless of course your an immortal and can spend til the end of days conquering this game. The aiming is quite terrible also, the enemy always seems to anticipate your bullets! Last I checked I had bought TUROK not MATRIX! terrible, one the last note the allies you have are extremely unreliable and will leave you cursing through the whole thing, because they either fall down, Don’t help, or stay right out in the open during a firefight.Sincerely,Not satisfied gamer.p.s. you can kill something with a knife way more then 2 or 3 ways you know?!?. Who the hell taught you how to use a knife Turok?!
Ever see a movie trailer and think to yourself “maybe I’ll wait until it comes out on DVD and rent it rather than paying to see it in the theater”? Well, after playing this game, I feel safe in saying that this one is one that I wish I had missed.First the good, the graphics are really nice and the characters seem pretty solid as well. The fact that you can kill a dinosaur easier with a knife than you can an automatic weapon, while strange, is kind of cool. OK, that’s about it for the good…I’ll skip the minor bad and go straight for the really bad so save space.The game starts off safe enough, new guy appears on a military spaceship bound for some planet, looking for a “rouge leader”. Suddenly, missle attack and the ship is going down. After crashing landing on the planet, only Turok and one other soldier is alive, at least at this point. You are on a planet with dinos and bad guys running around. Everything seems to go down hill from here. Now I like a challenge in a game, I have been through GRAW2, Assassins’s Creed, Devil May Cry 4, and all 3 Halos. I like figuring out how to clear an area or how to get the best tactical advantage to advance in the game. However, after playing this game I started to use it for a frisbee. The battles in some cases have no clear ending, you clear the area, start to advance and a whole new group of guys come storming in. After the 3rd or 4th wave and several hundred rounds, if you are lucky enough to be alive, you MIGHT be able to advance if some guy wasn’t hiding the whole time and blows up a barrel near you and takes you out. The check points are spaced so far apart that if you are being careful and taking slow movements so as to stay in hiding, it possible to start at a point, play for nearly an hour, get popped by someone you never even saw coming and go right back to the same starting point. Frustration SHOULD be part of the experience in a shooter like this, I agree, but at some point the frustration should be accompanied with catching a break, like putting more check points in the environment. The aiming on this game is really terrible. You have to try to bump the stick back and forth to get dead on the target while he and three of his friends are all shooting you. You know you are getting in trouble when things start going fuzzy and you have a hard time seeing. This is your health guage. A bar, or dial, a beep or something would be better. When you are fighting off the 3rd or 4th wave of soldiers to come into an area and you have already picked up all the spare ammo and you are doing your best to finish the area, your vision blurring a bit isn’t a real clear indication of how much more you can take before you die.In a nutshell, if you are despirate for something to add to your gamerang or gamefly que, this one might be ok, but I wouldn’t recommend spending the $60 they are asking for it. Give it a couple weeks, I am sure you’ll find plenty of these in the used game stores… assuming that people don’t toss the whole thing in the trash to prevent the embarrassment that they purchased it in the first place.

Wow. I guess they figure the graphics are a bit updated so they can pass it off as a cutting edge PS3 issue for the New Year. Bzzt! This is a straight terrible game. All you have to do is play the demo, don’t bother with the game if you are really that interested. Game itself is nearly worse. RFOM like controls, another game I thought was very dissapointing. Sound is like voice overs, doesn’t match the action. I was bored killing dinosaurs after about 2 kills but I went on so I could give it a proper chance. Your partner in the game, your guide throughout the maps has archaic, unatural 2D movements. I’ve been dying to rent Uncharted what 1st or 2nd best game for the PS3 for ages yet it’s never in, one copy everywhere, sometimes none, yet they have like 4 copies of Turok at every Blockbuster. Like sticking a knife in my side, this game is an embarrasment. They should pay us $60 to play the demo. Shame on you Turok developers!

It didn’t work
This game is pathetic. The designers programmed it to force you to replay battle sequences multiple times, regardless if you kicked butt! Case in point, one battle scenario I killed all the enemies and dinosaurs, but when I killed the last enemy (who was on his knees trying to stand and not even shooting at me) I died and had to start the level over. There was nobody around to shoot me!!!! The game goes on and on like this. I’d like to wring the programmers necks! They purposely designed the game to make you repeat battles over and over again to force you to look at their not so pretty graphics, or to feel like you accomplished something. How lame is that??? Oh, and let’s not forget the lame aiming controls…that seem to wander on their own!!! If you ever play this game, look at the size of the guys holding these puny weapons. Do they look like guys that don’t have the arm strength to hold a gun steady????? Geeez! Oh, and you cannot save at anypoint in the game…..just like mentioned above….you have to start the entire level over again!! Anybody that finished this game should be given sainthood for patience and determination…no matter how many hours of their life they wasted (like so many hours I wasted just to get through this horribly designed game…Hey, got that fork ready??). What happened to the old Turok from the Nintendo 64 days…where a true native american warrior ruled so competently????This game blows!! Ok, put the fork right here…..

Dont get me wrong it’s got a decent story line but the game play is bland, the knife kills are about the only thing I enjoyed about the actual gameplay, choppy graphics etc etc but what it all boils down to; would I recommend this game to anyone I knew? No, plan and simple

Turok is disappointing for multiple reasons, but perhaps even more so because parts of the game really aren’t so bad. There are some occasions when the game opens up a bit and offers us some large outdoor arenas to do battle in with sneaky vantage points scattered around the level. It’s brilliantly satisfying to sit back with the bow and arrow (which should be in more shooters), picking off the occasional soldier while watching a dinosaur wreak havoc with the rest of the group. In fact, taken as a pure shooter, it can be quite entertaining. The guns are satisfyingly potent and the action often pacey and intense. Despite the fundamental awfulness of most of the game mechanics, there were moments while playing Turok that I realized I was having fun. Unfortunately these moments are few and far between.The story is incredibly derivative and cliche ridden “borrowing” from almost every 1980s action movie. This is made worst by the fact that the game takes itself seriously. These flaws might have even worked in the games favor had they taken a tongue in cheek approach. The story essentially sees the title character Turok (who is now a generic space marine) going up against his mentor after he turned bad for reasons that aren’t exactly clear. There is an odd-couple paradigm to the story too. Your main ally is Slater (voiced by Ron Perlman). Apparently he blames you for the death of his brother some years ago, but this isn’t really explained that well either, and the result is that you simply don’t care. Odd-couple pairings only work with fabulous writing. This just makes you want to shoot your companion in the head, but you can’t, because he’s plot-essential. It gets tiresome very quick.One of the worst aspects of the game is the AI. It is horrible. Your “buddy” Slater insists you hang back and follow his lead, then will not move a muscle until you have cleared out an entire area in front of him or until you have stood in one particular spot that triggers him to continue. Slater runs into you, blocks your path, and just occasionally hovers in mid-air. The AI of the enemy is a little bit better. The enemy goons take cover and work as a team for the most part.One would think a vast jungle-covered planet should have presented a wealth of opportunity for open planing gameplay. Unfortunately the developers have created a corridor shooter, then replaced the walls with rocks and the ceiling with a skybox. Checkpoint placement is the cardinal sin the developers make when it comes to level design. The placement of checkpoints in this game really defies logic. In harder parts of the game checkpoints are simply too spread out meaning you sometimes have to redo lengthy sections of the game even on lower difficulties (I remember one particular elevator sequence that brought me to the edge of rage quit numerous times). Strangely enough checkpoints seem to be in an abundance at easier parts of the game where they are totally unnecessary.The graphics is something of a mixed bag. The game renders some things very well such as the glimmer of the sun’s rays on a metallic surface or the animations of the characters during the cut-scenes. However most other areas it fails staggeringly. Reflection effects are applied to pretty much everything other than grass, meaning the otherwise pretty dinosaurs often resemble cellophane-wrapped children’s toys. The art style is very generic, appearing to be a sloppy mish-mash of Gears of War, Killzone and Unreal Tournament whilst retaining non of the aesthetically pleasing aspects of either.There are far better shooters around, meaning there’s very little reason to spend money on this one. I still look at the Turok franchise with fond memories but if this is the future of the series, then perhaps our memories is where it should have remained.

Turok series is back and let me tell you this game is difficult,the only problem that i have with this game its the overall gameplay its very difficult to aim at the enemy, the graphics are decent and you have a lot a fun weapons.If you want a cheap game to have some fun this is a really good game for you.

The Good: Cool weapons, decent graphics, knife kills are fun, dinos!The Bad: Soldiers are boring, boring level design, generic multiplayer, B grade sci-fi setting and storyI had super high hopes for this game after being a fan of the N64 games, and I was quickly let down. Instead of being deep and rich in game play and story like a next-gen game should be we just get a generic B grade sci-fi type setting and story. The gun play varies from knifing dinos and soldiers to mounting turrets and killing a few huge bosses. The weapons are pretty cool like the plasma rifle, and mini-gun which you can set down and use it like an auto-turret.The graphics are pretty decent but rely too much on the U3 engine to make it look pretty. The story is pretty simple: You and your squad crash on a dino planet and have to get off…yeah pretty boring. While the animations for the knife kills look cool, and you can attach grenades to dinos and blow them up it gets old really fast. You’ll either be running through jungles, or you’ll be running through bases. It never changes from that switch off and not to mention the unbalanced checkpoints, and uneven fire fights. I didn’t even bother with multiplayer since it just consists of mediocre match ups.Rent this for the weekend and you’ll have some fun, but don’t expect anything to advance the series or breathe new life. Oh yeah, and the achievements are all wrapped around multiplayer so you might want to consider that.

as alot of other reviewers stated this game has very annoying checkpoints in single player mode (especially the elevator level). I would have been extremely upset paying $50 or $60 for this game but since I found it yesterday for $20 I feel a little better. I loved the Nintendo 64 game and that’s the only reason I got this, in a way I should have passed it up.

O.K. so I don’t know why I trusted the commercials for this. I almost always take ANY commercial with a grain of salt. But something about dinosaurs and Native American bloodlines on a next gen system sent my imagination into an overload of hope and potential. First and for most, the only thing in this game that looked remotely decent were the dinosaurs. And even then they didn’t look as good as a next gen console should. The humans in the game were looking like something off my original Xbox. Pathetic. Then comes game play. Throughout the beginning of the game (which is all I played) I had no feeling of any freedom of where to go. I felt very much like I was in a heard. Then when you fight the dinosaurs, and they get close enough you have to hit a couple buttons to do some “fatality” type move. It happens WAY to often. and gets boring right quick. I ended up trading in the game cause I couldnt take the repetitive nature and the sub par graphics.

This version is okay but none of the subsequent versions of Turok since the N64 original have been as much fun except maybe the second one. However, since I have always liked the Turok series, I play them anyway…

I have been a fan of Turok games since the beginning. But i have always been left feeling unsatisfied when i beat each game. But not this time. Beating this game was the best part. Although the game is short it has no room for complaints. Just the unique uses of the knife and bow make the game worth playing. In order to be challenged you will most likely have to play it on hard. I also tried beating the game by only using the knife/bow which is also really fun. But the Graphics are very good i would say a step up from gears of war. Overall after reading this review you will realize that if you enjoy slaughtering dinosaurs and uniquely fun gameplay you will enjoi this game fully. If you are dissapointed with the length of the game i would recommend playing it in all difficulties.

Bought it for my teenage son. I liked it but he seemed to get bored with it. But that’s not unusual for him and he plays a lot of games. So he’s picky.
