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. ;-)

I'm on another flying level now - they suck. I'm on chapter 11, so not long to go before I finish. Has to be said it feels more like a chore than a pleasure to play this game at times.

Some bits are really good while others just stink.

Yeah, Turok is basically more of the same. Certain aspects of it are ok but at the moment, once I've completed it I'll be taking it back for Desert Storm.

Saves me a bit on what I would have parted with for the game next friday.

Hmmmm, dunno about Turok.

Watched the interview with yerman on OXMs demo disk, and found it seamed he was trying to make it sound really great when really its just more of the same. ALot of the footage was repeated, none was particularly interesting either. Graphics seamed basic too.

I liked the look of Hitman 2 though, which got a sound review aswell so should be good. Deads to Rights looks cool, although only FMV was shown I like its style.

Disipointed with CRazy Taxi 3, nothing has changed and I don't think its worth £45.
