  • Venn:
    • Never played the original Turok 2 but this was a pleasant expansion on the first one.
    • Plenty of weapons, plenty of gore.
    • Fast paced and no reloading.
    • Oh, oh… this has backtracking :(
    • Sorry kids, that is not my thing so hard it burns.
    • Fetch-quests in a FPS can DIAF.
    • A $20 fire at that.
    • Dying animations are a bit on the long side.
    • Good luck setting up a multiplayer match.
    • Unexplainable chugginess.
    • Did I mention the $20 price tag?
    • I’ll say this, people who grew up playing this seem to really like it and if you want some of that sweet nostalgia all over your face chest and neck go for it.
    • If you are Turok curious, pick up the first one, on sale.
  • Jordan
    • It’s alright
    • Run around, shoot dinosoids. Which sounds like some sort of anal blister
    • Lots of backtracking. Kinda makes you think about the levels
    • The AI is a wee dumb, but enemy placement is still pretty good
  • Pedro
    • It’s more Turok!
    • The level design, even if the teleporters make it seem a bit disconnected, actually makes everything loop back in on itself.
    • The sounds did get a bit grating, to the point where the voice and music got muted.
    • The grunting when you climb ladders.
    • The repetitive music.
    • I remember now why I used to mute music in videogames back then.
