That stuff is awesome man thanks for scanning to! I wish somewhere it would uncover why in the heck we have Fireseed on the cover instead of Tal'set. I hope Turok Ex will use Japans main cover rather then ours. But most likely it wont i'm guessing.

I'm guessing it was a marketing decision. Acclaim's Turok comic was due to hit the stands the month after Dinosaur Hunter's release, and it's possible that somebody at Acclaim went "hey, we have this comic with this Fireseed guy, let's change the box art so that people will conflate the two." Pure speculation on my part, of course, but as I said, entirely possible. There's not much different between the two anyway.

Oh nice make up of it, a smaller resolution probably makes it look even better :)

Oh shit man that's nice dude *downloads* You guys are filling up my Turok folder space. I don't know, I think I like the alpha title screen better but you know this reminds me of a 95-96 title screen which is pretty cool though. Something similar to the Duke 3d press start screen :) Would of been nice if this showed up first and then it went on to do what the alpha does after you press start.

There's not much different between the two anyway.

But I think there is a pretty big difference between Tal'set and Fireseed. The name Joshua is not even tribal or native. Was fireseed born in the American city maybe? Tal'set is the most original because he is a true Native American in spirit, flesh, mind, and name.  Ehh just my opinion anyway :)

I was referring to the covers themselves, but it was admittedly poorly phrased. :P

Oh in that case my bad :) you know how context is hard to read clear all the time. Yeah all in all the two covers are pretty much identical just add some muscle to josh and give him long hair and boom you got identical covers :P
