WorthPlaying Reviews Turok

WorthPlaying writes:

Turok is sort of a Second Coming for the Turok franchise. It's also been described as a loose, current-generation adaptation of the plot behind the original, popular and highly rated Turok for Nintendo 64. The first N64 title was for mostly plot-free, but it still did quite well on a console that never quite found its ground. A sequel, spin-off, and at least one version of these titles adapted to Game Boy Color, were well received both in the press and by console gamers, though the third N64 installment slipped but didn't quite fall flat. Turok: Evolution for the PS2/Xbox generation of consoles received an amazing array of review scores, from a perfect 100 to the mid-teens. In all honesty, Evolution was a bad game and may have delivered the corporate version of a deathblow to Acclaim, its already troubled publisher.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

Lol

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

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