Can Someone Tell Touchstone Turok Came Out Three Days Ago?

22
Kotaku has received quite a few emails this weekend from people saying they had picked up copies of Turok at their local stores. While it's not out of the ordinary for a game's street date to be broken by a single outlet, according to Best Buy, GameStop, GameCrazy and Wal-mart the game came out three days ago on Jan. 31. Apparently no one told this to the game's publisher, Touchstone. The official Turok website has a countdown clock that still has a little over two days left on it. The press materials and game websites like IGN and Gamespot also have it listed as a February 5th release. Is this a matter of a mass mistake on the retailers' part or is Touchstone being sneaky and letting the cat out of the bag early on purpose?

Maybe they just said 'screw it' and decided to open up those boxes that were taking up space so the game can take up space on shelves. It's not like too many people are deliriously excited to get their hands on this title.

4 - I got it on Thurdsay
Gamestop helped me out. They only had one that had not been reserved and it did not have the plastic cover on the case. So what. I have enjoyed it. If you do not enjoy FPS, then you will not like it.

I love FPS, but i did think this was mediocre, it did nothing new for the genre. Glad to hear you liked it though, as i`m sure many people will, its just not my cup of tea. Perhaps its because its on the PS3 that i didn`t like it, i hear the 360 version is the one to get.

I have both 360 & ps3. I opted for the 360 version for the achievements and the controller. I just can't get used to the ps3 controller yet. I will say this game is much harder than most on the easiest setting.

There is something to killing dinos that makes me want to start up the BarBQ pit.

I work at a Game Crazy and we got our Turok shipment about three days ago. Usually a street dated title will come with a big orange flyer inside the box that says "STREET DATED," but the boxes contained no such flyer, so sell we did.

8 - I actually lilked the demo.
I thought it was pretty fun, the graphics weren't a big deal but people are such hypocrites.
When a overhyped trash game like halo 3 come out with crappy graphics everyone says: Graphics don't matter.
When it's not something like Halo then the graphics now factor in somehow.

It arrived at my store last Thursday, and since it had no listed street date, we put it on the shelves. Sales have been solid so far. I guess that people want something new to play now that they've probably finished their Christmas games.

the reason why the release date was pushed up to get more sales, because DMC4 would steal alot of sales from it if it released at the same time.
