Turok Xbox 360 Game Review

It’s been years since a Turok game came out, I almost forgot about this series until now, the dinosaur hunter returns. Now, before you get all excited you should know that the only thing that is remotely similar to the previous Turok title is that the lead charter Turok is Native American and that there are dinosaurs roaming around.

There about 13 levels, those of which are pretty big to compete, and to help you to advance is the auto save feature, which is always a gamer’s best friend. You wouldn’t want to keep replaying some parts, over and over.

The weapons in the game are pretty standard, you got your Sniper rifle, assault gun, shotgun, rocket launcher, rail gun and of course the knife and bow. You could actually position the rail gun on the floor to fire at enemies while you carefully maneuver around to shoot. The bow seems to take down enemies with just one shot of the arrow, with that kind of power it easily became a favorite. Another favorite weapon is the ability to tag someone with the shotgun, making the dinosaurs attack those whom have been tag, it’s cool to see them help you as they maul your enemies.


The game’s graphics and design are amazing, you’ll feel as if you’re really in the jungle. I love the way the dinosaurs both look and move as animal should, there are times were your be hiding from them and notice that different dinosaurs move and react differently, thus making the whole experience grander.
 
The Good:
Great graphics and design. Fan of the Turok series would love this, also you get to kill dinosaurs.

The Not So Good: The A.I is a little suspect.

Purchase, Rent Or Just play In A Friends House: I’ll suggest to buy this title, it a great game.
