360 Turok Demo Everywhere But Here

Via Kotaku:

"Congratulations Xbox 360 owners! You can now download and play the single player demo of the resurrection of the Turok franchise. Let's take a look at the availability of this 1.17 GB beast.

Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan and United Kingdom

Aww pants. Well, everyone else enjoy the demo, while those of us in North America and Japan sulk, drowning our sorrows in our first run blockbuster movies and readily available, adorable little anime dolls. *sigh*"

Awww wtf? I'm not really hype for the game but I at least wanted to give the demo a shot.

JsonHenry5965d ago

I guess they did not want North American Xbox owners bringing down their servers again, huh?

Douche5965d ago

"But wait, there’s some bad news too. You won’t be getting this demo through LIVE if you live in North America, apparently because of an exclusivity deal with the Official Xbox Magazine. We can’t confirm this, but a user over at nV News Forums has posted the following quote from an unknown site: “Due to an exclusivity deal with the North American Official Xbox Magazine, the Turok demo will not be on the U.S. Live Marketplace any time soon.”"

That really sucks.

OC_MurphysLaw5965d ago

I think this game has some great potential...we shall see if it lives up to the hype.

BLUR1115965d ago

yes the game looks so fun but yet no demo just like the club wtf and im sure that xbl and the 360 console is most selled in north america. this is how they treat us?

cow moolester5965d ago

Well for the first time us Europeans actually get something before Americans

BLUR1115965d ago (Edited 5965d ago )

what are you talking about Europe gets demos and stuff from live the same time and games get released just like 3 days later

ionace5965d ago

Probably wouldnt be able to download it with the Live servers on the fritz still

Eamon5965d ago

For your information, Xbox Live is working fully.

I think you need to grow up a bit. Life isn't all about games.

radzy5965d ago

nothing special. start off in the caves(very dark) with one of your mates. gotta get out of the caves . the characters look alot like gears of war characters. you dont get much ammo. gameplay is nothing special, guns are nothing special, gameplay is nothing special, graphics nothing special.once out of the caves kill a bit more dinosaurs and a bigger dinosaur. abit later start killing killzone 2 hellgaust members. not impressed at all, expected more . 6/10.

Turok: A Game Series in Need of a Reboot

The Turok series has been languishing without a new title for more than a decade. It's about time we got a reboot.

closed_account362d ago

I'm all for it, I loved the originals... I just don't think, just like w the original Prey, that the main character can survive in this current political climate. Native characters seem untouchable at the moment. I think it can be shown the right respect, but there's always someone getting upset about something these days, they would find a way to cancel it.

BriBri362d ago

I can't think of a game that's been cancelled because of the race of the main character.

Vits362d ago

Honestly, I would prefer if they just ported/remastered Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion to modern platforms. So we could have access to the "original 3 games". Because I don't see how to really reboot Turok. It's a product of its time being a mixture of platforming/fps and puzzle.

And I really don't see all those elements being preserved on a Reboot.

potatoseal362d ago

I would prefer Dino Crisis remake from Capcom. Still, a remade Turok would get my attention.

FreeckyCake362d ago (Edited 362d ago )

Forgets about the 2008 reboot*
I'd rather have a sequel to Turok 3, tbh.

GoodGuy09362d ago (Edited 362d ago )

We unfortunately do not have enough quality dino games. Theres Horizon but they're robots, and Monster Hunter that I can only think of. I'd like to see Turok make a comeback some day.

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad614d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g614d ago (Edited 614d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

gurp14d ago

I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games
