Gaming Bits - By Alexis Morgenstern, Thursday, 03 January 2008:
Turok is about a month away from release for the Xbox 360 and PS3. While a playable demo hasn't been released on Xbox LIVE or the Playstation Store, a playable demo disc is available from retailers such as GameStop and Best Buy with a $5 deposit. In addition to the demo disc, GameStop offers a Turok T-shirt, while Best Buy offers a Turok beanie.
Below is a video showing a few of the highlights of gameplay and cutscenes on the demo disc. The demo disc has about 20 minutes or so of gameplay.
Turok is scheduled for a February 5, 2008 release on the Xbox 360 and PS3.
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.

Popularized by Doom in 1993 and still making video game haters gnash their teeth today, first-person shooter games are the best thing to happen to gamers since pizza rolls. So here are 15 underrated first-person shooter games you may have missed.
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
I played them all, they are all good in their own way
I used to be obsessed with FPS games
To paraphrase the video:
"really really shîtty, this game sucks"
Another Unreal Engine disaster.
Eh...I'll wait for reviews and word-of-mouth to help my decision. This video didn't sell me that well
yea..im going to wait til they release the demo on xbl and/or psn to decide if i want this game or not
see this goes to show you... notice how this game looks when its dark... Killzone 2 looks WAYYYY better... and I've been reading the developers blog and Killzone2 is gonna have alot of environments...although they said the game will have the ultra gritty Killzone mood. I think this game is going to be pretty good...just pretty good.(Unreal Engine is being used too much now.)
I was excited about this game when it was first announced but having seen the latest movies, I'll also be waiting for the reviews and a demo before deciding.
