 Hello everyone. So long story short, I'm a die hard Turok fan. I've been a fan since I was 5 or 6 watching my aunt's (then) boyfriend play the first one for HOURS, and when I was about 9 I picked up my own copy of 2. I Loved it as well as 3 which I got shortly after. Then came this one... Oh boy. At first glance and play I was in love
Then I got to chapter 3. I was getting owned like a scrub. A Turok veteran getting my butt KICKED. And not because of the gameplay per say but the glitches and "checkpoints". Oh my Lord the glitches and "checkpoints". Falling off cliffs without dying until I picked up a med pack which THEN killed me, enemies shooting me through walls, horrible enemy placement, etc. And the checkpoint system. I mean it's honestly, barely existent. No lives either. Now I guess you can argue with this by saying it could be worst and be perma death but still. Now don't get me wrong. I can definitely see where they were going with this game. The environments are beautiful, some of the stealth segments are very satisfying, (except for having to climb across a rope in the last segment of chapter 4 that almost killed me due to a glitch) and while the weapons aren't anything to really bat an eye at, I understand that maybe they're like this because this was the prequel. However, I just can't see what all the great reviews and praise is about here. It's a decent game for what it is but honestly it's not a whole lot. At least to me. I'd really love to see this series pick up after 3 tbh and give us something much more fun and polished.
Welcome to the forums!

Sorry I must have forgot to reply this topic since I joined this amazing forum. *clear thorat* Greetings folks, the name's TBM. and as you can see by my profile picture, I'm a hardcore fan of Turok. ever since I was a child, I played Turok: Dinosaur Hunter on the N64 and it was awesome! and so does the 3 games like Seeds of Evil, Shadows of Oblivion, Evolution on the GameCube, and of course my favorite, Rage Wars! Which is the reason why I have joined this forum to show you the Doom Mod called Turok Doom: True Rage Wars, which is a Rage Wars TC Mod for Doom! http://www.turokforums.com/user-mods-maps-and-content/turok-doom-true-rage-wars-(doom-mod)-(coming-soon) Let me know what you fellow Turoks think?

Hello everyone! SnackKracker101 here, forgot I even had an account here. Anyways, tis nice to be here as I am a fellow Turok fan like you all. I happen to own Turok 2 on n64 as well as the remastered version of Turok 2 on Steam and I also own Turok Dinosaur Hunter on Steam as well. I do plan on getting the other Turok games that I am missing on n64 soon, as I like building up my collection. I do plan on getting a device called the 'Retrode64' which is a USB compatible device for PC that allows you to play physical n64 games on PC and can also dump your n64 carts too. Which, by the way, once I have acquired the Retrode64, I'll dump my ROMs on MEGA and if you would want them, just PM me.
Anyways, thanks for accepting me into this place

Hi. I have been a fan of Turok since 1998. I actually got Turok: Dinosaur Hunter with Star Fox 64. However, I fell out of the loop and just wanted to catch up since then. I also had a memory card for it, but it unfortunately stopped working. Anyway, I just wanted to check this place out as I like to check out any forums that catch my interests. With what little I've seen, I like what I've seen so far.
I also sometimes can't believe that it's been 20 years since Turok: Dinosaur Hunter already, but I'm sure I'll eventually get over it. (I also have a habit of revisiting things on years that end in a five or a zero, especially for the anniversary vibes.) I also like seeing the green text as green is one of my favorite colors, which also lead me to select Green Blood in the options every time.
As for my screen name, it comes from being a fan of Nine Inch Nails, with the songs Eraser and Reptile being on The Downward Spiral and how it looks like the dinosaurs and all sorts of other enemies are being erased once they vanish after their deaths in the actual game.

^ Yeah, personally, I'm pretty happy with the remaster. I'm just aware that there is a contingent out there that might just shrug the game off as 'broken' (especially in terms of MP) without giving the VERY small dev team the time to recoup some hard earned money before embarking on a full-featured multiplayer experience. I'm glad the team have decided to get a playable product out for sale that will continue to be supported after release... God knows, I'm even more glad they didn't go the Early Access route. That way rarely seems to make everyone happy! RE: Ghost in the Shell - Can't wait! I haven't even watched the trailer. I just want to keep the experience for the big screen. I'm really looking forward to Ghost in the Shell.
