Turok is back and all shall feel the wrath of Turok coming to every system, personally turok is my favorite video game series ever. Ive owned every game. This new one really looks like its coming together very nicely. First off it is a prequel to the first and you have the ability to play as tal' set and there is an emphasis on turok's return to the jungle, lots of dinos, o lot more than the first. tricertops, braciasaurus, tyrannasaurus rex, parasolafalus, stegasaurus, velociraptor, and tons more and they all hunt with very a very advanced AI system. also the jungle levels are fully destructible. And other than the dinosaurs there are hundreds and alien, human, mutant hybrids to deal with, like endtrails and purlinns. think dinotopia, meets Jurassic park, meets Starwars, and mix it in with lots of very big guns, gallons of blood and endtrails, and a great story line youve got Turok:evolution. The greatest game to come out for any next generation console. also did I mention it has a great 4 player mode almost as in depth as super smash bros(exept with lots of blood and big guns in first person). This game is a definate must buy, forget about the previous tuork games you didnt like and read some more reviews on this game, you MUST OWN IT!!!

Top Notch FPS

If you liked the original Turok, you'll love Turok Evolution. This is the game that the Turok team wanted to make on the N64 but couldn't due to hardware limitations. The graphics and sound show the power that the current generation of consoles has over the 32-bit consoles. The lack of fog and the flying levels are two examples of this. The only dinosaur first-person shooter out there, and it's a great game.

This game rocks! I confess, i hated last three turok games, but EVOLUTION will keep you glued to the tv. The graphics are awesome, control's silky smooth as Halo (no slowdows!!), and the multiplayer is a blast! Jumping is no big deal, since its used just for novelty. Story is alright, but who cares about the story when you are having soo much fun!! Two bad things though, the game can be tough at times, and there is no online multiplayer options, then again Xbox LIVE isnt out yet. These can be easily overlooked when you have friends over, and have a great time for hours to come! Either you liked Halo or not, you will love this!

TUROK ROCKS! Could be the FPS of the Year!

Let me start off by saying that I am new to the Turok series and I am not an avid video gamer. However, I started playing video games when Pong was introduced in the arcades that will give you an idea of my age. I own very few games for the XBOX, just Halo, Max Payne, Madden 2003, and NASCAR Thunder. I was apprehensive in buying Turok because some of the early reactions from gamers, not video game reviews in magazines. Well let me tell you that Turok was a very pleasant surprise and I would rate it right up there with Halo. The graphics of the environment are probably a bit tighter in Halo but the creatures in Turok equal or surpass Halo. The array of weapons is endless and the flight mode is ingenious. I purchased this game the day it was released and cannot stop playing it; it will consume a vast amount of your time. I think this game may be the FPS of the year! The only games that may, and I stress the word may, surpass it on the XBOX are Medal of Honor (Nov. 2002 release) or Brute Force (Nov. 2002 release).

Magnificent game for a 11 and up.

I recently gave this to a 13 year old who describes it as one of the best of the year. I've been watching over his shoulder (he was so much better at this game than I was), enjoying the lush jungles - the bushes that move as you move through them - and the hundreds of dinosaurs and other animals populating the environment. Is it too violent? I don't think so. Its bloody but then, you are hunting dinosaurs, crocs and dinosaur men that fully intend to kill you first. I was impressed the way the game distinguished between the herbivores and the predators. Even the 13 year old learned to make the distinction quickly. This is not the stark landscape of Halo, but here you will see butterflies flitting by, lizards scampering and stegasaureses (stegasauri?) grazing. Of course, the 13 year old also loves those weapons which get more and more impressive as you move through the levels.

This is a long game that takes considerable time to finish. You will definitely get your moneys worth. And then there are a whole range of multiplayer games,once you finish the 15 chapters (40 hours minimum I would guess for a decent gamer). And the game is very addictive. Some people have said how much the game improves after the third chapter. I disagree. It was fun from the beginning. Yes, my 13 year old reported a couple glitches where dinosaurs seemed to get stuck running in circles, but certainly nothing that harmed the enjoyment of the game.

Can't wait for the release of the finished version

The Enemy AI in Turok is great. The weapons make me want to shoot and shoot and shoot. Cool level bosses and great scenery make the game feel almost like a movie. You'll be waiting to see what's around every corner.
Having played a production demo recently, made available through a canadian developer, I can honestly say that I am looking for the Release Version of this game to be one of the all around best video games of the year. Vivid landscapes, killer weapons, great graphics, and most of all, lots of fun.

Just pre-ordered -- AAA FPS

Just put my preorder in. Judging from what I've read on IGN, Gamespot, Game Informer, etc. I have to say this has the potential to be the FPS of the year. It's also a BIG game according to the previews, so I'm looking forward to getting some quality time in with the over the top turok arsenal.

I found it to be the best Turok yet

It's very hard for me to find a game that provides a challenge and the whole Turok series has given me hours upon hours of entertainment.I still haven't beaten evolution,but I've beat evry other Turok game.This game starts off easy enough,but as I started to get into it I found that it wasn't a gimme.While I still think the very first Turok on N64 was the best this game is providing me with hours of entertainment and that's what it's all about right?

Turok rocks!

OK, I am a game bigot. I only play First Person Shooters. So, my Xbox pickings have been a little slim. I pre-ordered this game in May and have been counting the days until it arrived. It showed up on Friday, and I played it for about 2 hours over the weekend. I can only say that I was not disappointed. The graphics are as amazing as they should be for an Xbox game, and the controls are very fluid. The story line (like I need one) is not very engaging, but it also doesn't get in the way. I like the addition of flight in this rendition of Turok. The flight controls are easy to master and the weapons are sweet. Imagine dogfights 100 million years ago! Cool!

The enemies that I have met so far (I've only made it through chapter 3) have demonstrated intelligence. It's weird to watch a computer controlled Sleg dive for cover and only expose enough of his body to try and get a shot at me. They're smart. The AI is great.

I highly recommned this game, if you like FPS and a visually interesting challenge. 5 Stars!

This game really rocks!!

I've played Turok on PS2 and its great. I've also played in on an X-Box and it may be even better on X-Box!! I was impatient and used the cheat codes to advance to the higher levels. Believe me, when you get to the higher levels, the game really gets good!! I waited a long time for this game and it was more than worth the wait.
