GameCube one can be played on android in 4k if your Device allows for it .I play it in 2k with a few hacks .runs perfectly 👌 Also there might be HD texture mod available for GameCube. I know modders have done that for other GC games
Hey I'm jealous and I hate you for making a video about this game, I want to become a streamer and gamer and this game was my entire life and I just heard you say that like THIS GAME WAS NOT A GAME, THIS GAME WAS A REALLY GOOD GAME, wdym it didn't age well this game was so beyond it's time even it's multiplayer like.. I won't even give you a chance to explain... Turok evolution is god mode gaming and tbh with your long ass sellout ad? I left the video before your ad even finished? Tbh disgusting remove anything Turok from your content and Okay Let me watch ur video now that was my pre Turok rage
Loved this game as a kid. One moment that I've never forgotten was when I scored a decapitating head shot with the poison arrow, which also triggered the poison death animation. So I watched this lizard man with no head double over in pain and proceed to vomit profusely from his neck stump. Fucking awesome.
I was so obsessed with this game as a kid. It ignited my love for three things: video games, drawing and dinosaurs. This game started it all for me when I got it for the PS2 and it was definitely one of the biggest highlights from my childhood. Yeah, it's not a perfect game in the slightest but I still love the hell out of it. Even to this day, I still love it to pieces. It'll always hold a special place in my heart, always
This game is a little nostalgic to me but I do remember that my copy on GameCube was bugged and I couldn't walk past this invisible wall to progress through the game. Had to use cheats to unlock the other levels but had fun with it. I remember it being the first rated M game I was allowed to play as a kid.
The GameCube version (and maybe this happened with the other versions, but idk) also randomly took away some of your weapons, only to give them randomly back to you 1 or 2 chapters later. I remember being without my trusty Sniper Pistol for all of Chapters 4 and 5, when I could have really used it.
And a remaster for the reboot as well. It still runs on PC, but has graphic bugs, limited key binding options, no FOV slider and changing the FOV breaks cutscenes and aiming with weapons. I want some blood when shooting human enemies.
My dad bought me this game when I was 8. I was too scared to finish the level where you had to infiltrate the base. It took me another year to finish the game lol. He didn’t know about the dismemberment, he just saw a dinosaur and thought I’d like it lol. Anyway as a kid, this game and the world it created (especially the city) blew me away.
I actually liked the flying levels as well because of the epic soundtrack and the great action sequences! Turok Evolution really captured that epic feeling of a lost world full of dinosaurs and armies of another realm. The very first turok tried to create this primordial dinosaur atmosphere as well but technically was not able to do so. And the second Turok did not even try to do it ... I mean how many dinosaurs are in turok 2? It is more of a sci fi theme/genre mash up then anything else. Also the first two turok games had synth heavy soundtracks which were great on their own, kind of like the 80s flicks... but Turok Evolution really tried to create an epic orchestrated one. I just think it is sad that they did not really finish the story arc.
Turok: Evolution was one of the first games I played on the original Xbox as a kid, and it completely blew me away. I had never played the previous Turok games before, so it was easy for me to love Evolution. 20 years later, I can definitely see that my love for the game is only due to nostalgia; I only love it now cause I loved it as a kid. Though, given my track record playing old games for the fun of it, chances are I would've eventually gotten around to playing it at some point in the past two decades, especially since it's an FPS with dinosaurs in it. But I can also see why people, especially fans of the older games, would dislike it. In my honest opinion now, the game isn't terrible, but it's not amazing either. It's simply fun, and I agree that the jungle levels are the very best in the game. They've always stuck out in my mind, and I remember being 7 years old and pretending to be dinosaurs with my friends in the woods because of this game. I also hated the flying levels, but I think if they were done better, they could've been awesome. The one thing that is flawless in this game to me is the music; it's absolutely stellar, and I love the track you chose to play over the video, even if it was from one of the flying levels. All in all, it's a pretty cool game, and it will always hold a place in my heart. PS: I loved the weapons as well. Those things were freakin epic to use. I even got in trouble with my parents because I went into school and drew a picture of one of the lizard men puking his guts up after being poisoned with an arrow lmao.
begged my mom to buy me this game at toys r us when I was god knows how old. I remember saying, "but mom, you don't shoot people, they're dinosaurs!" Ended up getting it!
I also remembered that if you typed zoo in the cheat codes, you had access to a "zoo" where all the animals in the game were put and it was really cool to be able to look at the 3d models of the dinosaurs
As someone who grew up with the PS2 port and absolutely loving it as a child it really irks my heart knowing the PS2 had ALOT of cut content so seeing this video really made me sad knowing i never got to experience the full ride but at least i somewhat did and will always have this as a PS2 classic in my heart, such nostalgia ❤🙌🏽
No no, please, keep talking more about the weapons. I miss the genuinely different weapons you'd find in early 2000's games. I miss when any random gun could be either secretly or loudly based. So many games where weapons have no real unique utility, or they do have one but it's generally very underwhelming. Unique weapons alone are why I replayed Borderlands 2 over and over.
My older brother, when he found out we had a GameCube, he bought Evolution for us. For when we brought over our Cube from our house to his. We would play this for like 4hrs just on the Multiplayer. It was just having fun. I was a beast at the alt fire Pistol.
Jarek I am one of the few people who are in love with the flying level. In fact the flying level are my favorite! One of the reasons I go back to this game! Possibly its because I just love flying games in general, but I had a LOT of fun in those levels.
Got to experience this at a friend's house on the PS2, and while I never got more than a few levels in I have fond memories of it. I loved that the multiplayer had NPCs on certain maps and the weapons were delightful; I especially loved the spider mine. The first time I encountered a T-Rex was legitimately frightening; I don't think I'd ever felt so small compared to an enemy in a game before.
the atmosphere and ideas this game brought were so unique, mixing futuristic alien tech with native Americans and dinosaurs. they definitely wanted to push the limits of what you could do with fps games.
Turok still has an effect on me when I game. Sometimes when I pick up a new weapon or an extra life I shout "I am Turok" and sometimes when I am swimming in a game I hear Ada's voice saying "Turok, your oxygen is low". Also whenever I see corpses beside a river I hear Ada saying "slaughter by the river of souls"
Omg omg omg I’m so happy to see you finally review my hands down favorite game of all time. It’s such a amazing treat to have as I start editing my next video. I completely agree with your opinion on it being loved and hated. I just wish the company had more time to polish it. I’m actually surprised no fans have tried fixing it with some mods. Side note evolution is the origin start of turok 1’s character tal’set.
For as average or mediocre as this Game was, I have a pretty soft spot for it since it was my first ever experience with Turok Series (in the same way that Jurassic Park 3 was my experience with Jurassic Park in general). I honestly think this should get a remaster with improved graphics (and by that I don't mean on the level of Halo CE/Halo 2 Anniversary, just looking more cleaner and less blurry in terms of visuals and sounds) and improved controls and QOL enhancements to the Gameplay.
My cousin and I loved this game. We would play multiplayer on the treetop town level and try to fight the raptors that spawned on the ground; glad to see more people did that. I remember being mesmerized by how visceral the gore was and the reactions of the lizard men.
I'd say this game deserves a remake instead of a remastered, where they fix the controls, improve and maybe add missions (especially fix those flying missions), add more weapons for sure too and more consistent enemy variety. I used to play the multiplayer so much with my cousins we always had a blast I'd say re-work the MP maps and add some more too.
It was the first game I ever played on the original xbox, and I thought it was absolutely fantastic. Loved it as a kid, and I still love it now. Come on Night Dive, being this back too!
I just want to say, I loved every part of this game as a child. Including the flying levels. I was completely obsessed with this game. When I saw the poison arrows while watching this video, my brain was being tickled so hard by nostalgia. I haven’t seen or heard of this game in over 20 years!
Back in the early/mid 2000’s me, my cousins and my neighbors would get together every weekend at around 5:00 in the afternoon to play GameCube games, the ones we played the most were Mario Kart Double Dash, Smash Bros. Melee and Turok Evolution.
Playing this on gamecube as a kid. played it a year ago and beat it, its such a pain in the ass to find out where to go.... but its turok so i love it. so many fond memories with this game.
I use to watch my brother play this cause the dinosaur on the cover scared me into not playing it. Eventually I did play it and it was a lot of fun. It still blows my mind how many unique death animations were in the game, based on where you hit them and whether or not you dismembered them or not. It was so cool. It hasn’t aged too well, but it’s still a lot of fun and nostalgic to play through again
Hi. I'm the single person who liked the flying levels lmao. I played this as a 7 year old and it was my first Turok game. I actually didn't have any games that let you fly before that, and it blew my little mind! So for me, I know now that they're actually pretty bad, but the specatacle of flying in some of those larger environements really stuck with me. For me this is game was the adventure that stuck with me the most from childhood. Thanks for giving it a fair review.
This game always holds a special place in my heart. I have the ps2 version and yeah definitely lots of content missing, Mainly the reason I always remember this game fondly is just because it was the first actual violent game I played. The only other games i played around the same time were Red Faction 1 and HL. The swarm bore and the poison arrows were things that I would remember in passing when playing a game with lots of mega violence. I especially remember begging my older brother to play through it so i could watch him beat it. and also because my parents definitely wouldnt have liked me playing it at my little baby man age. But I would occasionally play a few levels with the help of my older brother. It's definitely no where near a perfect game, but its still fun. Those flying levels definitely arent hard but they are just infuriating af (had something similar happen to that part with going in the pipe) I just really really REALLY WISH we could get a fully realized version of this style of Turok.
The multiplayer maps are so unique that have always make me wonder what kind of things happen and how they fit in the obscure and kind of surreal lore Turok has.
Yeet Was fun to watch the stream Love this game, despite the flaws. Death to the Slegs! And it really helped flesh out Acclaim's reimagining of the lore.
hands down this was my favorite game as a kid, i can literally remember the cheat codes by heart ive played it so much,its wild seeing as an adult the stuff that was cut from ps2 and never knowing as a kid
i have so many fond memories of the early stealth compound missions, as a kid a i would be entertained purely just messing around in those same levels for hours. i played this game way too much lol
I had this game but never got to finishing due to my lack of English and no memory card lol. I went back to it 17 years later and finally finished the damn thing, this game was top 5 for me when I was younger and till this day I still remember it fondly
We use to play this game in daycare and summer school when I was in kindergarten but some teachers found it to be a bit to graphic for kids so they never let the kids bring it back one of the best memories as a kid in school it was so cool back then man just absolutely jaw dropping and unbelievably fun as a kid the newer one was really fun as well hope to see it make a comeback
I give the devs A+ for effort in the enemy designs, especially the saurian troops. This was before ragdoll physics took off in the games market, so they really went the distance to try and capture as many combat scenarios to provide animations for (losing limbs, headshots, surrendering, combat rolls, throwing up to poison...etc!)
the fact this game came out 20 years ago is surreal. I remember playing this almost religiously until the new "best" thing came around. Havent seen the video yet, but I have doubts its as good as I remember it being and its probably just a nostalgia thing in my case, like a lot of others
I have a soft spot for this because it was the first Turok FPS I owned, though I had played Turok 1 at other people and beaten Turok 3 while mom and I were staying with an uncle who owned it when we were visiting her family in 2001. I had owned the Gameboy games previously though.
Like everybody already mentioned, it may be the nostalgia but i love this game for the atmosphere, the world building and the sound design/music. Also funny how everyone did the same things, the poison arrows, playing coop horde mode in multiplayer against the dinos, being to scared of the big dinos lol
I've been wanting a Dino Crisis remake in RE2 Remake style. One thing I remembered was that a lot of enemies have a VERY high chance to surrender or run away
I played Halo for the first time this year and it reminded me a lot of this Turok because of how similar the feel and the first person structure is. The flying was my favorite because I haven't played any linear flying segments in the PS2 back then.
Omg the nostalgia is hitting hard for me. I remember playing this game with my brother on split screen on the PS2. The Tekbow with explosive arrows was literally the best weapon in the game lol
one of the best game ever made. so much lore and atmosphere and the art gallery with its music. sooo perfect. also won awards for its beast feature. the flying XD. you need to do some research XD
I was always left wanting more from the short cutscenes because I wanted to know more of the story and I always wanted to find secrets and easter eggs but none of that happened. I had my fun in the end but meh.
I always used to this this game sitting on the shelf at my local game store when I was a kid and the box art really stuck with me for some reason. Looks like a fun game, the weapons are wonderfully over the top and the graphics definitely would have satisfied me at the time.
Got this game on my ps2 way back when I was a little one. For a 8 year old it was so hard but I remember fighting the trex on the last mission over and over. Or that first level. Sweet nostalgia
I remember playing this game on ps2 and it was absolutely awesome. I’m still working on it on my GameCube. Can’t believe it’s been 20 years for this video game
I love that treehouse muliplayer map! It sucks that only Turok: Dinosaur Hunter and Turok 2: Seeds of Evil got a Remaster. Turok 3, Evolution and the Reboot really deserve one too. The Reboot on PC is fine, it runs mostly without problems, but it has really limited options due to probably being a console port first. I'm sad that the Turok franchise is dead, also HELL YEAH WE NEED MORE DINOSAUR SHOOTERS!
Fond memories as a kid. Sad it didn't get a full development cycle to be on par, if not better than previous Turok games. Glad to see it still covered and I would love for this version of Turok to return to form as it's the most interesting and vivid of them to me.
I remember struggling a lot in this game as a kid and I have a very vivid memory of finally getting to the end of one of the suspended city levels after being stuck for a couple of days, the one which you have to kill a lot of paratroopers, I also had about six to seven marines alive to almost the end, when suddenly a random enemy trooper appeared and I was in front of a shotgun marine, he killed me one shot from full health and I wasn't even mad because it just made me like those marines even more than I already did.
Oh man the memories this brought back. We weren't supposed to be playing games like this but one kid on the street parents didn't care or pay attention to the games we played. So as often as we could without being too suspicious we would play this and other M rated games at his house.
My go-to multiplayer map was the bunker. It had said bunker in the center of the map with trenches everywhere. If you reached the console on the wall, all the shutters and doors around the map would close and artillery would fall proceeding to kill anyone trapped on the surface.
One of my strongest memories is playing this game with my brother. We'd always go to the one map that had the raptors and not even kill each other, just tag team and fuck up as many raptors as we could. Also there's a point in the game where you walk out of a cave and there's a rex eating a carcass just outside. If you sneak past it and hide behind the waterfall, the rex would go and kill all the lizardmen in the area for you.
oh god this game brings back memories i used to play this game on my grandpas ps2 all the time when we visited my grandparents cant believe this game is already this old
The multiplayer on ps2 was godly to play with friends the plethora of game modes and weapon variety and all the customisations makes this game one if the best of uts time
Seems we have a similar experience with this game! Played this as a young lad, and my brother and I also played the pseudo "horde mode". It brought back so many memories hearing you say that :')
Buckners t tex gave me re occurring nightmares , this game had a lot of effort out into the enemies and for what little lore it had I love wished they had action figures of these guys, also I realized the flying missions were like lore dumps especially the last one and liked seeing all the vehicles the sleg had
Honestly I love the game issues and all, and I can also say I loved the flying parts, I just enjoy the sounds, the weapons, obviously the environment, I'm not tech savy so I don't know how to play it again properly. I admit I'd have loved so reloading stuff but eh can let it slide, be nice to see Turok come back.
For me this game was fantastic. I was about 12 or 13 when I first played it and it was fun to me even with Halo: Combat Evolved occupying much of my time as well. I recently played it again on the gamecube (because that's what I had growing up) and all I was really aching for was modern controls. Just give it that and poop it out on every console for us to buy...again
My vivid memory was using the remote control poison stink bug i loved throwing it over the walls of the lizard camp and taking them out sneakily. Im pretty sure there was a spot you could throw it into a tree and walk it across the branch and drop down into their camp
i remember playing this game on gc when i was younger having a good time despite its flaws when i thought, “it’s not that fun here, but maybe it’s better on pc?” and now i’m currently making the begrudging effort to finish it to put my nostalgia demons to rest. it’s so much more painful to get through with the mouse acceleration, especially on the flying levels

That PC port 😂. It's the worst thing I have ever seen
GameCube one can be played on android in 4k if your Device allows for it .I play it in 2k with a few hacks .runs perfectly 👌
Also there might be HD texture mod available for GameCube. I know modders have done that for other GC games
funnier if the poison arrow made enemies shit themselves to death too

Nice pfp.
I was so obsessed with this game as a kid. It ignited my love for three things: video games, drawing and dinosaurs. This game started it all for me when I got it for the PS2 and it was definitely one of the biggest highlights from my childhood. Yeah, it's not a perfect game in the slightest but I still love the hell out of it. Even to this day, I still love it to pieces. It'll always hold a special place in my heart, always
That's actually really wholesome and awesome
im the same brother just not the drawing.. maybe drugs

Being a kid and nostalgia is one powerful drug for remembering playing shitty games and watching shitty movies
You had to blow up the 2 spawners to pass through the open doors. I remember scouring the internet to figure that out.
Does your version also have the sorcerer threatening Tyrannus by T posing menacingly while his lower body is clipping through the floor.
The GameCube version (and maybe this happened with the other versions, but idk) also randomly took away some of your weapons, only to give them randomly back to you 1 or 2 chapters later. I remember being without my trusty Sniper Pistol for all of Chapters 4 and 5, when I could have really used it.
It would be great if Nightdive released an improved version of the PC port and also ported Turok 3 to PC.
YES, PLEASE. This game was my childhood
And a remaster for the reboot as well.
It still runs on PC, but has graphic bugs, limited key binding options, no FOV slider and changing the FOV breaks cutscenes and aiming with weapons.
I want some blood when shooting human enemies.
Nightdive has been fire with remakes.
There was some cut content I know of that would so be worth seeing
No need here, I have my Nintendo 64 and gamecube along with my trusty crt tv
My dad bought me this game when I was 8. I was too scared to finish the level where you had to infiltrate the base. It took me another year to finish the game lol.

The 20th review of this game that I watch. For some reason I can't stop watching every new one. Let's go!
the atmosphere and ideas this game brought were so unique, mixing futuristic alien tech with native Americans and dinosaurs. they definitely wanted to push the limits of what you could do with fps games.
Im so happy to see one of my favorite youtube channels review this game.
This game has it's good and bad moments but nothing to outright condemn it.

The best part of Turok Evaluation is the weapons variety with various firing modes
They are similar to Doom 2016, Doom Eternal
I use to watch my brother play this cause the dinosaur on the cover scared me into not playing it. Eventually I did play it and it was a lot of fun.
It still blows my mind how many unique death animations were in the game, based on where you hit them and whether or not you dismembered them or not. It was so cool.
It hasn’t aged too well, but it’s still a lot of fun and nostalgic to play through again
Hi. I'm the single person who liked the flying levels lmao.
I played this as a 7 year old and it was my first Turok game. I actually didn't have any games that let you fly before that, and it blew my little mind! So for me, I know now that they're actually pretty bad, but the specatacle of flying in some of those larger environements really stuck with me. For me this is game was the adventure that stuck with me the most from childhood. Thanks for giving it a fair review.
This game always holds a special place in my heart. I have the ps2 version and yeah definitely lots of content missing,
Mainly the reason I always remember this game fondly is just because it was the first actual violent game I played. The only other games i played around the same time were Red Faction 1 and HL. The swarm bore and the poison arrows were things that I would remember in passing when playing a game with lots of mega violence.
I especially remember begging my older brother to play through it so i could watch him beat it. and also because my parents definitely wouldnt have liked me playing it at my little baby man age. But I would occasionally play a few levels with the help of my older brother.
It's definitely no where near a perfect game, but its still fun. Those flying levels definitely arent hard but they are just infuriating af (had something similar happen to that part with going in the pipe)
I just really really REALLY WISH we could get a fully realized version of this style of Turok.
The multiplayer maps are so unique that have always make me wonder what kind of things happen and how they fit in the obscure and kind of surreal lore Turok has.
Yeet
Was fun to watch the stream
Love this game, despite the flaws.
Death to the Slegs!
And it really helped flesh out Acclaim's reimagining of the lore.
hands down this was my favorite game as a kid, i can literally remember the cheat codes by heart ive played it so much,its wild seeing as an adult the stuff that was cut from ps2 and never knowing as a kid
I was REALLY hoping nightdive would add this to the remaster roster. So many fond memories playing this game as a kid.
i have so many fond memories of the early stealth compound missions, as a kid a i would be entertained purely just messing around in those same levels for hours. i played this game way too much lol
IVE LONG WAITED FOR A VIDEO LIKE THIS
I had this game but never got to finishing due to my lack of English and no memory card lol. I went back to it 17 years later and finally finished the damn thing, this game was top 5 for me when I was younger and till this day I still remember it fondly
We use to play this game in daycare and summer school when I was in kindergarten but some teachers found it to be a bit to graphic for kids so they never let the kids bring it back one of the best memories as a kid in school it was so cool back then man just absolutely jaw dropping and unbelievably fun as a kid the newer one was really fun as well hope to see it make a comeback
I used opera because of you, I really enjoy the pop out feature on TH-cam makes the screen space easily adjustable for whatever game I’m playing
I remember playing this and being like
"Well that was TurdRok."
Lol
I give the devs A+ for effort in the enemy designs, especially the saurian troops.
This was before ragdoll physics took off in the games market, so they really went the distance to try and capture as many combat scenarios to provide animations for (losing limbs, headshots, surrendering, combat rolls, throwing up to poison...etc!)
the fact this game came out 20 years ago is surreal. I remember playing this almost religiously until the new "best" thing came around. Havent seen the video yet, but I have doubts its as good as I remember it being and its probably just a nostalgia thing in my case, like a lot of others
I have a soft spot for this because it was the first Turok FPS I owned, though I had played Turok 1 at other people and beaten Turok 3 while mom and I were staying with an uncle who owned it when we were visiting her family in 2001. I had owned the Gameboy games previously though.
Man I'm nostalgic as heck for this game. I used to watch my dad play this as a kid and I will never forget the awesome sound track from this game.
Wow that last bit about the tree multiplayer level is so relatable! Me and my childhood best friend used to play that for days
Now that we have Turok 3 coming here's hope they will remaster Evolution as well.
Like everybody already mentioned, it may be the nostalgia but i love this game for the atmosphere, the world building and the sound design/music.
Also funny how everyone did the same things, the poison arrows, playing coop horde mode in multiplayer against the dinos, being to scared of the big dinos lol
That truly was an awesome rocket launcher! Love the weapons in this game, but uh... that's about it for the most part.
Ugh I miss this. This game was my entire Childhood
I've been wanting a Dino Crisis remake in RE2 Remake style. One thing I remembered was that a lot of enemies have a VERY high chance to surrender or run away
I played Halo for the first time this year and it reminded me a lot of this Turok because of how similar the feel and the first person structure is. The flying was my favorite because I haven't played any linear flying segments in the PS2 back then.
Omg the nostalgia is hitting hard for me. I remember playing this game with my brother on split screen on the PS2. The Tekbow with explosive arrows was literally the best weapon in the game lol
Speaking of dino games: I'd like to get a Trespasser remake in VR. Jurassic World movies print money so it's weird that Universal wouldn't even try.
20 years later and I still have the strategy guide to this game sitting on my bookshelf. Turok Evolution and Resident Evil Outbreak were my childhood.
one of the best game ever made. so much lore and atmosphere and the art gallery with its music. sooo perfect. also won awards for its beast feature. the flying XD. you need to do some research XD
I was always left wanting more from the short cutscenes because I wanted to know more of the story and I always wanted to find secrets and easter eggs but none of that happened. I had my fun in the end but meh.
I always used to this this game sitting on the shelf at my local game store when I was a kid and the box art really stuck with me for some reason.
Looks like a fun game, the weapons are wonderfully over the top and the graphics definitely would have satisfied me at the time.
Got this game on my ps2 way back when I was a little one. For a 8 year old it was so hard but I remember fighting the trex on the last mission over and over. Or that first level. Sweet nostalgia
7:00 The upcoming Project Ferocious seems like a great dinosaur FPS.
I remember playing this game on ps2 and it was absolutely awesome. I’m still working on it on my GameCube. Can’t believe it’s been 20 years for this video game
I love that treehouse muliplayer map!
It sucks that only Turok: Dinosaur Hunter and Turok 2: Seeds of Evil got a Remaster.
Turok 3, Evolution and the Reboot really deserve one too.
The Reboot on PC is fine, it runs mostly without problems, but it has really limited options due to probably being a console port first.
I'm sad that the Turok franchise is dead, also HELL YEAH WE NEED MORE DINOSAUR SHOOTERS!
After playing the reboot last week, it really doesn't deserve a remaster. The pc version also isn't very good but that's for next week's video.
@@Jarekthegamingdragon I started replaying it too yesterday. I still like it.
Fond memories as a kid. Sad it didn't get a full development cycle to be on par, if not better than previous Turok games. Glad to see it still covered and I would love for this version of Turok to return to form as it's the most interesting and vivid of them to me.
I remember struggling a lot in this game as a kid and I have a very vivid memory of finally getting to the end of one of the suspended city levels after being stuck for a couple of days, the one which you have to kill a lot of paratroopers, I also had about six to seven marines alive to almost the end, when suddenly a random enemy trooper appeared and I was in front of a shotgun marine, he killed me one shot from full health and I wasn't even mad because it just made me like those marines even more than I already did.
I always find myself coming back to this game every 2 years
Grate vid man i always find games to play cuz of you best review show
The best one is Seeds of Evil. Loved that game. Finished it when the remaster came. And played a lot as a child back in 1999.
Oh man the memories this brought back. We weren't supposed to be playing games like this but one kid on the street parents didn't care or pay attention to the games we played. So as often as we could without being too suspicious we would play this and other M rated games at his house.
Man I want this series to be revived. Turok 2 was one of my first games. If turok got the doom treatment I'd be so happy
My go-to multiplayer map was the bunker. It had said bunker in the center of the map with trenches everywhere. If you reached the console on the wall, all the shutters and doors around the map would close and artillery would fall proceeding to kill anyone trapped on the surface.
I’m 22 and this game will forever be my absolute favorite game of all time
One of my strongest memories is playing this game with my brother. We'd always go to the one map that had the raptors and not even kill each other, just tag team and fuck up as many raptors as we could. Also there's a point in the game where you walk out of a cave and there's a rex eating a carcass just outside. If you sneak past it and hide behind the waterfall, the rex would go and kill all the lizardmen in the area for you.
oh god this game brings back memories i used to play this game on my grandpas ps2 all the time when we visited my grandparents cant believe this game is already this old
So much nostalgia, and the weapons were absolute peak
Would insta buy a remake
I still have this in GameCube. Was blown away when I first played it.
The multiplayer on ps2 was godly to play with friends the plethora of game modes and weapon variety and all the customisations makes this game one if the best of uts time
Oh, that flute in the beginning just hit me with a wave of nostalgia. It's janky, but it's fun in my opinion.
I love this game. Still have it and still play it all the time on my PS2 (when i'm not busy at work or playing something on my Xbox).
Wow that music just unlocked memories I dont remember I had
Seems we have a similar experience with this game! Played this as a young lad, and my brother and I also played the pseudo "horde mode". It brought back so many memories hearing you say that :')
Great Video.
Broo I totally forgot about this game 😭 brings back so many memories
I miss this game. One of my favorite memories from it is using the spider drone in the stealth mission
Buckners t tex gave me re occurring nightmares , this game had a lot of effort out into the enemies and for what little lore it had I love wished they had action figures of these guys, also I realized the flying missions were like lore dumps especially the last one and liked seeing all the vehicles the sleg had
I remember this game being a brutal bloodbath as a kid. The sound made when you bludgeon something over the head with the War Club was mean as!
As a kid I loved this, rented it like 6000 times from the local video store
Simple times
Honestly I love the game issues and all, and I can also say I loved the flying parts, I just enjoy the sounds, the weapons, obviously the environment, I'm not tech savy so I don't know how to play it again properly.
I admit I'd have loved so reloading stuff but eh can let it slide, be nice to see Turok come back.
The soundtrack has lingered in my mind for years.
My mom got it for us one Christmas along with our Xbox, we didn’t like it at first but the older we got we started enjoying it way more
For me this game was fantastic. I was about 12 or 13 when I first played it and it was fun to me even with Halo: Combat Evolved occupying much of my time as well. I recently played it again on the gamecube (because that's what I had growing up) and all I was really aching for was modern controls. Just give it that and poop it out on every console for us to buy...again
Very fair review. I also loved this game despite all its flaws. I just miss key hunting for levels like Turok 1 and 2.
My vivid memory was using the remote control poison stink bug i loved throwing it over the walls of the lizard camp and taking them out sneakily. Im pretty sure there was a spot you could throw it into a tree and walk it across the branch and drop down into their camp
I loved Turok evolution man 😭
That intro woke up a prehistoric PS2 versions of me that needed to be awakened.....
i remember playing this game on gc when i was younger having a good time despite its flaws when i thought, “it’s not that fun here, but maybe it’s better on pc?” and now i’m currently making the begrudging effort to finish it to put my nostalgia demons to rest. it’s so much more painful to get through with the mouse acceleration, especially on the flying levels
Hey Jarek quick question, under what tag on rule34 can i find ur dragon oc
The split screen multiplayer games were super fun for me and my cousins growing up.
