Has anyone played this yet(for any system)? The previews
made it look decent but I know the last few weren't very
good.. Could anyone direct me towards a review?

Turok reviews

They're not professional reviews... in fact, a lot of the
reviewers on Gamefaqs are 12 year old clueless fucks. But
some of them know what they're talking about, maybe these
reviews will tell you something.

Thanks. Hmm... Out of the four reviews, three of them were
very positive although the most disagreeable one(4/10) was
very thorough and well written.. The others lacked the
integrity and left something to be desired. Makes me a bit
nervous. Hope they have it for rent at Blockbuster, I hate
buying and returning games to EB. I feel like I let them
down..

A little late for that... I just did the unspeakable and
bought before renting(!). If anyone expresses interest I'll
post my opinion after playing it later on..

I wanna know what it's like! I bet its ruff n' tuff.....I
love Turok games, all that senseless ,unnecessary violence.
I'm itching for its UK release.....some say 26th September,
others say this Friday,(pleeeeeaaase this Friday!!) Nintendo
always seem to fuck up UK releases announcing one date and
actually releasing about 4months later....bastards.

Besides, I thought videogames made you go on killing sprees
;)

Here's my opinion :
This game is shit. Taking it back first chance I get.

After further play, here's my official review and score for
Turok(Xbox version) :

+Lush Atmospheres. The fauna is especially impressive.. A
wide range of animals : Gazelles, crocodiles, baboons,
lemurs, parrots, and of course dinosaurs... that actually
have realtime bowel movements! "That is one big pile of
shit."
+pterradactyl levels make for a nice change of pace...
-..from the monotony of typical FPS stages. Find key, get
to top of mountain, kill evil minions, yaddayaddayadda.
-The much acclaimed A.I. is subpar at BEST. I found myself
constantly engaging in staring contests with the opposition
until their idle animations caused them to look away which
in turn provoked me to scatter their innards across the
landscape... Meanwhile their shit-for-brains comrades
standing less than 7 feet away scratch their asses and look
on oblivious.
-Cycling through weapons while getting your head chewed on
is a real bitch.
-Crap voice acting, crap dialogue, and crap cutscenes.

I could add more but why bother?
Bottom line : Don't waste your time on this mammoth pile of
poo poo. If you're looking for a good FPS, pick up Halo or
wait and see how Timesplitters turns out.

Final score : 5/10
