"Turok Evolution"

So whose getting this next week ? :-) I'll be getting it and from what I've seen it looks good so far. The E3 DVD shows some nice footage of it and whats in the game. That swarm bore weapon looks pretty tasty - having played the other games I have fond memories who I killed with the old version of that weapon. ;-)

Thing is, I keep thinking how good it would have been if a little extra was included in the game. What I would have loved to have seen is a dinosaur hunting mode - no cyborgs or evil bad guys, just a mode where you can sit back, hunt and even take trophies (skulls or claws maybe ?)
The idea of the bushes and stuff moving and making noise is great, so a hunting mode could be excellent. :-)

I know you can go around killing normal dinosaurs in Evolution, but this would be even better as far as the hunting goes. Maybe even a Co-Op mode where 2 players can have a screen each or something and just roam around trying to kill a bigger T-Rex than they've bagged before.
Thats where the trophies could come in - you could display your biggest kills of each breed just like you get records in fishing games and stuff.

I think it'd add some longevity - especially when things can turn around and your soon having to leg it from a pack of raptors. ;-)

Reviews of games based on first impressions are about as worthwhile as playig Jurassic Park 3: The DNA Factor.

Sorry I mean Acclaim :)

Go to www.gamerankings.com the Xbox version does not score well :( There are 22 reviews of people who bought the game today and it averages 69% but a lot have rated the game at 30-40% and they protest to be big fans! Oh well it wasn't one on my list before christmas anyway :)

Or that Activision have forgot that the GameCube exists :D Only kidding!

I am going to go and check some reviews out now!

The Americans got it today.

Look out for reviews on their sites.

By the way, how come SR have Turok set for 6th release on the PS2/Xbox but 27th for the Gamecube?

A mistake surely!
Otherwise that's just not fair...

Unless...



Activision are using the extra time well, putting more options and features and enhancements for the version going to the most superior console! :-P

I'm worried that the Xbox version will look and play like a shoddy PS2 game. We'll have to see in next months OXM...

Big over the top weapons, big dinosaurs to mow down, bushes and grass react to your movement as well as your enemies - the sound and movement can alert you to enemies and vice versa.

Its looking to be a good game. Should keep you busy till your next big title. :-)

Because mowing down dinosaurs with big guns is always good.

Ok givde me a few resons to why i should buy it?

*Sigh*

The sentence was aimed at you

The sentence did not say you were a fanboy

The sentence said that everyone I have called a fanboy is a fanboy

And I wrote that sentence because you said I call everyone who disagrees with me a fanboy

And that isn't true

Which is why I wrote the sentence

If it wasn't aimed at me then why did you put "Garbe shut up", is there someone else called Garbe?

*Cues X-Files music*

The truth is out there!
