Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: Turok: Dinosaur Hunter's legacy on the Nintendo 64 is undeniable. While the pressures of being both a commercial and (more often than not) a critical success would have tempted series of lesser quality to churn out mediocre sequels, Acclaim has not let this franchise run that way. Now with the second "official" sequel (not counting Rage Wars) wreaking havoc in Nintendo land, it's time to see if the legacy is fulfilled. Visually, this is by far the best in the series. While the graphics on the N64 can only go so far, they're best utilised in the amazing cut-scenes displayed throughout, as the action's tension is increased by the dramatic score that heightens the atmosphere of the game. The weapons are virtually the same as those you came across in previous Turok games, so things may seem familiar. There are new weapons, but most of them are just upgrades of the current ones. The only time that weapon selection will be important is during boss battles where the rocket launcher will pack a bigger punch. Not only can you save your game anywhere, but you can also continue from many checkpoints throughout the level. As you progress, you will pass checkpoints where the game pauses, and the title of the area appears on the screen. This feature is great because when you suffer that oh-so-sudden death, you only have to go back as far as the last check point rather than your last (and possibly distant) save. With the single-player mode thrown back in for the third Turok adventure, the multi-player mode in Turok 3 doesn't seem to flow as well as it did in Rage Wars. This might be excusable, but with Rare showing how fun a single/multi-player title can be not once, but twice (GoldenEye, Perfect Dark), it's a bit disappointing. Still, Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion is a great first-person shooter for Nintendo's ageing machine, and more importantly, one that doesn't embarrass the series. --Todd Mowatt Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - TUROK!!!!!I love Turok.. and have dying to get my hands on this game for ages.. I was not disappointed! I cnat write much because I want to go and play it.. but if you want to breathe some life into your dusty old N64 then GET THIS GAME!!!! Rating: - Turok 3. Top of the trilogy?Turok has been the longest running series of games on the N64, starting with the first one Turok: Dinosaur Hunter (fog), the slightly scarier and genneraly disturbing second one (jerky), the multiplayer only Rage Wars (limited) and now this. Well I've always prefered the first one. Amusingly gory, huge weapons and lots of fun all round. Good old dinosaur and human enemies and a good learning curve. Unfortunately I can't find it anywhere so I have to make do with a copy loaned from my friend, (permanently). The second one came on a cool black cart and had the best graphics of the series. It was let down by a lack of save points, accurate control and accessibility along with the worst multiplayer ever. Rage Wars I liked. Nice control, ... Read More: Rating:  - turok 3: shadow of oblivionWell, here was me thinking that Acclaim surpassed themselves with Turok 3. Now they've done it again. As a fan of the Turok series, I have to say that this is their best yet. With all the features that made the first 3 turok games great, combined with the new enemies and weapons, on top of the lighting, graphics and playability that this genre of game famous, this is a title that will have you screaming for more. I would recommend this title to anyone. Be they battle worn Fireseed, or the eager rookie to the world of turok. Get this Game! |
