Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Preview
The granddaddy of console first-person shooters makes its way to next-generation consoles in style in Turok Evolution. Blast your way through velociraptors, stegosaurs, ankylosaurs, brachiosaurs, and other enemies with the most ludicrously destructive weapons ever--including variable payload cruise missiles, gravity disruptor beams, and the mighty swarm bore--and prepare to pick your jaw up off the floor when you see the devastation they cause. The graphics are utterly gorgeous: the game's 50-odd species, from harmless ickle butterflies to merciless T. rexes, are rendered in painstaking detail, and the environments are lush and interactive--plants and trees move as creatures brush through them, and you can shoot down trees to crush your enemies (or scuttle off as they try to knock piles of rocks down on you). The explosions and enemy deaths are particularly gobsmacking, and the sound effects are just as good.

Thankfully, all this is backed up by great gameplay--an entirely new game engine has been developed for next-gen hardware, and though Turok Evolution is principally a first-person shooter, in certain levels you're backed up by a squad of allies, and in others you get to ride a flying dino with strap-on rocket launchers. The advanced AI means that both enemies and allies behave in a realistic manner and will adapt their tactics depending on whether you approach with stealth or force. There are over 60 stages across a variety of single- and split-screen multiplayer modes, with different difficulty levels for rookies or experts. Turok Evolution is an absolute must-have for FPS fans. --Rikki Price

Product Description
MODEL- 23273 VENDOR- ACCLAIM FEATURES- Turok: Evolution November 10, 1886. Texas. As the last surviving members of the Saquin Nation make a desperate attempt to escape to the relative safety of Mexico, they are unaware that they have played into the hands of the bloodthirsty Captain Tobias Bruckner. Under orders to bring in Chief Grey Bear, the warrior-brave TalSet, and the remaining Saquin without bloodshed, Captain Bruckner reneges and springs a deadly ambush. Bruckner is a man possessed. Called "Red Snake" by the Native tribes of the Southwest, he has hunted the Saquin for years. The great Chief Grey Bear, one of the most brilliant and respected of the Native American Chiefs falls victim to a snipers bullet, and Captain Bruckner orders the slaughter of the remaining Saquin people. As the bullets fly, TalSet and the remaining Saquin braves leap into battle, exacting a terrible toll on the Indian Hunters even as they are cut down one by one. Himself mortally wounded by Bruckner in the battle, TalSet cuts through the Cavalry troops and embraces Bruckner in a deadly melee. War club and Saber clash, and at the height of the battle, a cave-in sends TalSet and Bruckner tumbling into a mysterious underground cavern covered in ancient symbols and strange artifacts. TalSet is dying. Bleeding to death from a bullet wound to the liver. Desperate to avenge the death of his people, TalSet once again locks in mortal combat with Bruckner. As hi

5.0 out of 5 stars Turok Evolution ROCKS!! WORTH ALL 5 STARS!, October 8, 2002
By A Customer
I just don't get the negative reviews of this game? Complaints about the graphics and control features, and a game that doesn't present challanges? HUH!

First off the graphics in this game are one of the main reasons that compelled me to keep playing this game. The graphics were like a breathe of fresh air in a FPS.

And how about the comments on the control features. BULL! If you can control games like HOH and Max Paine, you will have NO problem with controlling Turok E. I rented this game for starters. Within the rental period I got the control settings where I was comfortable with the game. Full vertical and horizontal speed controls. And the invert look, which I feel is the most important adjustment in any FPS.

The rental period of this game was a fantastic gaming experience. I found it hard to even put the game down. Being a fan of MOH and Max Paine. Turok Evolution is a better challenge than either of them. And by-the-way, two days after I returned the rental. I purchased Turok Evolution. And it was worth EVERY DOLLAR SPENT!

Give yourself time to master the controls in chapters 1 through 3. Because the AI really starts to kick in on the progressing levels. I'm at the end of chapter 5 right now and you WILL see a BIG difference in the AI from earlier levels. The flying levels are also very COOL! And the controls in the flying level were relatively easy to pick up.

As far as a fun factor, the feeling of adventure, and the sheer challenge of the game. It's been an AWESOME experience thus far. I'm trying to beat this game without using any cheats. As far as I'm concerned, MOH, Max P., and 007 don't even compare to the challenge that awaits you in Turok.

Maybe some don't like the game because it presents too much of a challenge? I can't comment about the multiplayer mode because I have'nt even tried it yet. I'm having to much FUN with the FPS part right now. I don't see me beating this game for awhile yet. Which already makes it worth it's price. Because as an average gamer, I like getting my money's worth out of a game.

I rate Turok as a better buy than any of the previously mentioned games. I own all of them and I have beaten them all. Turok is the BIGGEST BANG for the BUCK! So far.

And I also don't see a problem with save points on this game? It saves at the end of every sub-level. Giving me time to re-think strategy for blowing the brains out of the SLEGS! Gotta LOVE sniping in this game!

4.0 out of 5 stars Best Since First, September 7, 2002
By A Customer
The original will probably forever be THE best Turok of them all, but to me this one is second. Many will argue that part 2 is better, but I disagree. Part two lacked one major component that added true wonder to the original Turok game... Dinosaurs. There were only the occasional and generic raptors in Turok 2. Evolution is flooded with dinosaurs. The first time I played the game I was awe struck when I saw the towering head of a brachiosaurus sticking out over the tree tops and eating from the highest branch. It's these moments that make the game special. The weapons are awesome and the control is perfect, much better and sharper than the last great PS2 shooter, Medal of Honor: Frontline. The game does not get a perfect score however. Though the graphics are great, they lack something that the N64 version had. Though the fog in the 64-bit original was slammed by most, I felt it added a true feeling of being in the jungle and mystery. The fog is completely absent, and should've been kept in. The framerate in the game is almost always quick, much faster than the N64 version, but that's probably due to the lack of those details I spoke of. No lens flares from the sun, no clouds rolling overhead, no fish in the creeks, and the water isn't nearly a real as the original. But the game itself excels and I recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Massive violence has never looked so good!, September 3, 2002
By Laura Stewart (Griffin, GA United States) - See all my reviews
I, like every other gamer in the world, love M-rated games. The blood splater on the wall, the bits of gore on the ground, it doesn't get much better. So when I heard that the new Turok, a Nintendo title, was 'multi-platform', I hurried on over to Blockbuster.

When I first turned on the game, and saw a reptile soldier get his head split in half with an axe, I new that this was greatness. You start the game with an axe/club and a bow-and-arrow. On the first level, I looked over the hill ahead of me, and saw bushes swaying to the side. I moved closer to them, and out jumped a small raptor. Immediately, I drew my bow and sent my arrow directly into the raptor's skull. The blood effect was astounding (a giant burst of thick mist in the air above me).

Now, I've never seen a Velociraptor get torn to shreds by a mini-gun, a.k.a. meatgrinder (meatgrinder refers to the graphically violent image portrayed when the mini-gun is used on enemies), but I'm pretty sure that the blood effect was exaggerated. Nevertheless, FPS's are supposed to be violent.

If you take away the 'M' rating, you've actually got yourself a good story, and some gameplay that can easily be compared to Red Faction. If you want to be amazed by a video game, then I recommend that you play an amazing game. Turok:Evolution is a game that will leave you satisfied and grinning (if you have a sick sense of humor like me).
