WOW... what a freaken' disappointment

Like a lot of people I ran out and bought this much hyped game immediately, and like a lot of people I was sorely disappointed. This travesty ranges from the mediocre to the just plain bad. Most of the levels in this game are average at best and that's not including the horrible flight missions. The graphics are weak and the multiplayer is a freaking joke (on the PS2 anyway).
Overall I'd probably give this game one and a half stars but I can't, and to tell you the truth it doesn't pain me that much to have to settle for one star.

Suspicious Reviews - AVOID THIS GAME!

I find it suspicious that most reviews are anonymous, or written before the gamer has played the game. This game is HORRIBLE! The graphics on the PS2 version are worse than the N64! The framerate lags at a low teen figure, the textures are amateurish, and the movement looks like a hastily created episode of South Park. I bought this game, played it for six hours, and returned it in disgust! AVOID THIS GAME at ALL cost. No wonder it has been so over-hyped!! It is a horrible example of a rushed, unimaginative, terrible game!!

Good, but not good enough

OK. First off. The game was alright, but not as good as Turok 2 for N64. You have so many missions too do in TE, but they are very short. In Turok 2, they gave you like 7 missions, but they lasted a long time. The weapons in TE are good, but again the weapons in Turok 2 were better. I would advise you to just rent the game and not buy it. I bought it and I wish I wouldn't have. Just my advice.

This game sucks....

This game ... It says it is 1-4 players simultaneosly, but it isnt. It is only 2... so it ... if you have friends and want to play. Either that or my multi taps b, c and d ports are messed up. Also the single player is too linear. You can barely explore or anything. The graphics are ok, but the sound effects ARE VERY BAD!! Everything sounds so cheap and inhuman. I rented this at blockbuster, I hope the game is messed up or something because it stinks. Turok 2 was alot better. I think gaming companies are all about graphics now and not gameplay; which is really sad. Some where I read that this game was going to be awesome, I totally disapprove. All the reviews I read anyways only talk about "what they heard and saw" Do not rent this game!! Wait for armored core 3.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!

I thought this game would be awesome judging from the screens and movies that I had seen online. I rented before buying and was instantly sorry for wasting just $5 on this game!
The graphics are bland and cartoonish...the graphics in Turok 2 were far more impressive (even though the frame-rate was problematic). The game suffers from HORRIBLE pop-up...grass will suddenly appear just 3 or 4 feet in front of you. The characters in the game are lacking in detail and the AI is lousy.
The weapons are cool, but after watching the animations one or two times they become old. Overall, I was supremely disappointed with this game. I have been a fan of the Turok series from the beginning and I am a big fan of the PS2. However, this game looks like a rushed product that does not tap the full power of the PS2. Don't waste [your money.]

Ugh. Horrible horrible horrible...

I really wanted this game to be good. I hoped the few bad reviews here on Amazon were a fluke, but alas... I rented it and was done within an hour or two. Uninspired graphics, boring gameplay, confusing controls and overall very unsatisfying. I think of myself as a fair person but this game flat out sticks. It took gaming back about a million years (to the dinosaur age).

Remember when dinosaurs were cool

While every other kid re-enacted GI Joe battles on their front lawns, I played with my little plastic dinosaurs. Fast forward to present day, and dinosaurs are more popular than ever. But is it cool to like dinosaurs now...hardly. The Jurassic Park sequels? Sports teams with cool dino-names? Barney??? And now this affront to the video game world. Thank god, I only rented it (free rental at that, and I'm still mad). This cumbersome FPS has no appeal whatsoever. Rent it only if you must, but for god sakes don't shell out fifty bucks for this.

WASTE OF MONEY

If you like one person games like 007, MGS, then you will hate this game. It's not very fun, the flying missons are ridiculous.

Take this garbage back

The game itself is hard to follow along with the cheesy bad guys and the boring story line im sorry i ever had the misfortune of playing this game. Its a disgrace to the Turok brand and i just dont see how the developers at Acclaim let this glitchy frustrating abomination they call a game out of their doors. I believe it was rushed for the holiday season. Instead of pushing the game to get done they should of gone back and fixed the choppy graphics and all the popup foliage in the game. I definitely dont recomend it.

Don't bother.

I've played enough first person shooters to know that this one wasn't worth the time or money I spent on it. Graphics are so-so. Level designs aren't much better. The game play seems to drag and skip whenever the action heats up. At first, I thought the flight sim sequences were a novel idea, but the moment things started to get exciting, the game paused to load the next section which totally broke the game rhythm. Switching weapons also happens to be sluggish, making combat sequences far more difficult than they should be. Considering the quality of most games Acclaim puts out, this one was a major disappointment. If you're in the mood for an entertaining FPS, I would strongly suggest something like Deus Ex: The Conspiracy. The Medal of Honor and Red Faction series are also strong. I wish I could put a finger on what really irritated me about this game, but I can't--some games are a challenge while others are a chore to get through. Simply put, it's not fun.
