Disney layoffs hit Turok, Bolt studios

I want a new Turok

So there won't be a new Turok?! That was one of my favorite games :(

Hope they make another Turok game for the 360. This being their first game ,which was good, the potential for a greater #2 was imminent .

some classic games should juts not be "revamped" turok was fun on n64 but it was clear it would never make it as a next gen game, the concept is just too simple, shoot dinosaur, reload, repeat.

It must suck working in a studio where you really can't express any true ideas or create anything inspiring. I mean, for example, if you work at Neversoft, you'd just be pumping out Guitar Hero after Guitar Hero until the audience got bored. Nothing but Guitar Hero. That would suck.. but working at these studios where, let's face it, the games you would make are just unbelieveably awful.. well, maybe it's a blessing. Go look for a job at one of EA's many monotone studios. You never know, you could be pumping out Need For Speed after Need for Speed or Sims pack after Sims pack.

Turok always sucked

I was really hoping this game would be up to par with the other FPS's of its time. At least it had a good campaign.

Damn.... and they were making a sequel... Turok is one of the funnest games I've ever played. I hope it all works out though.

"Surprise-Surprise!!!"

ouch! and i thought the gaming industry wouldn't be affected

Turok was a good, but conventional game. If the sequel had some more interesting weapons, and made the dinosaurs take on new shapes (grafted weapons, etc. just like Turok 1) then I think they would have had something going for them. Sucks, they had potential.

"Propoganda loses '[FEWER] than 30' employees..."

I feel bad for Fall Line. They have to make such horrible licensed games. :( And while I enjoy the new Turok, The hero in the new game was super huge. Like Gears Of War freakishly huge looking. Make another Turok with a man....using NORMAL proportions. :P And although I enjoyed what I've played of the new game and will get it now that the price has gone down, there's something about it that doesn't feel like the older Turok games did. Make a game as good as Turok 3. That game was friggin awesome!

the best turok was 1 & 2 the rest was a waste of time it fell from the story line

To the people that got laid off, just wanted to say that we feel your pain in these tough times. Hang in there and hopefully destiny will bring all of you fruitful opportunities to chew on in the near future.

The original Turok, for N64, was good. You could make the dinosaurs dance

Sucks for the employees but Turok hasn't been good since...well ever.

I'm sorry hear to more people getting hit with a pink slip. Good luck guys and I hope you all recover sooner than later!

Sad. Turok was fun. Had its share of problems, but a very good product overall. Koei should go bankrupt and why people still buy their crap games is beyond me.

@ 1425678786655: Nintendo never made a Turok game. The Turok games on N64 were all made by Acclaim, who went out of business a few years ago. Also, the first Turok was also on PC.

Marcster1994: "Disney + Violent Dinosaurs = ????" Didn't you see "The Rite of Spring" in Fantasia?

Turok was garbage, hopefully there won't be a sequel.

Disney laid off a developer with a lot of potential. I actually enjoyed Turok, and for being Propoganda's first game, it was very well done. I hope someone picks them up.

duh not again

Doesn't surprise me - Disney has changed a lot over the past few years. Pirates of the Caribbean anyone?

dam Disney hope they sell it to a company that knows how to make games

Disney, Coke Cola and MS own everything...LOL.

not sure i am gonna miss the hannah Montana game hahaha

Disney had a gaming division and they owned turok!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What is the world coming into?

ive been playing turok since the first game and ive loved it ever since, i jumped over the moon when the turok for xbox 360 was released and i am disappointed to hear that due to the effects of the financial crisis there have been tons of lay offs and thus terminating amazing franshises like turok i hope they pick it back up

Here's hoping those folks find decent jobs after all this.

Let's just hope that when 'Disney On Ice' come's to town, Turok will be in it!

@1425678786655 I think your a little confused the original Turok games were made by a private company that choose to make the games for the N64. Nintendo had no influence on the decision to make the games N64 exclusives. Also Disney bought the rights to the turok franchise not the original company that made Turok.

Hmm, hard to imagine Disney holds the rights to a game featuring dinos trying to tear your head off. I hope they continue with Turok 2

DIS owned other studios?? let alone the one that made turok? LOL. just funny that disney owns the company that makes a dinosaur killing game hah. or disney should sell that company to MS or nintendo again since nintendo knew what to do with their turok games. disney needs to keep making kids stuff not supporting these kind of games, and we wonder why the games have been ok at best.

i loved the original turok. and this most recent one all tho far from great was a step in the right direction. i hope they continue

lol, whats wronge with this?

I hope they make one where mickey mouse screws you over and your mission is to find him and kill him the whole game. HA!

I will be technical. It was actually Touchstone, not Disney who made Turok.

Turok 2... extra costumes featuring a mickey mouse hat (with ears) and gloves? hmmmmm.... that would be pretty interesting

Disney + Violent Dinosaurs = ????

pretty ironic of disney hahaha

id love to see a dinosaur bite mickeys head off. lols :)

At least they're not closing...

Turok with Micky mouse and friends.... LOL

there cant be another turok 2! turok 2 is already out like 11 yrs ago on the n64lol

lamprey263, Propoganda didn't close. They lost under 30 employees, but they still have two studios who are at work on two new games. I really hope one of them is Turok 2!

I really liked the original N64 game, and I hadn't tried any of the other Turok games until the latest one, and I actually really liked the last one. Shame the studio had to close 'cause I thought they did a damn fine job. Though, I did buy the game for $25 and felt it was worth it at that price, I really didn't feel it was worth paying the full $60 for it, but that's still not to say it isn't that good.

What most people forget is that Disney is just another group of suits and ties who are trying to make money...

these were all terrible studios, hannah montana games and "too-little too-late to the party turok" didn't make things any better. as i like to say to bad games...GTFO!
