Turok was one game that I could just not wait to play. When I first got my hands on the game, I was so excited. Turok was not a bad game, in fact it was a pretty good game. But Turok does suffer from some thing that could of been better.

The story behind Turok is that you are part of a squad called Whiskey company, and you are sent to an alien planet to kill a man named Kane. Turok use to belong to Kane's wolf pack, as he called, until he saw that Kane mainly just went around killing villagers. So you are on this planet were Kane and his army of soldiers are trying to gather this info on how to bring back dinosaurs and giant bugs. So you go around in these jungles and these labatories killing a bunch of different kinds of enemies.

The level design in Turok is good. It makes you feel like you are in a giant world, but the thing is that you can not move around a lot. Like I said, it makes you feel, but you are really just going down one linear path.

The enemies in Turok are all right. The soldiers and the bugs are not that fun to fight. The dinosaurs are probably the coolest enemies in this game. You can perform a bunch of cool knife kills on the dinosaurs where you grab them, and jam your knife into their heads, and blood just out evey where. Some times this game can be super easy, but at other times this game can get really hard, and it is at random times through the game.

But lets just say that the knife is actually the coolest weapon in this game. The guns in Turok look cool, but there no different then trying to kill some one with just an ordinary rifle. You shoot the enemy, even with a shoot, and you just unload round after round into them, and they do not die. Not to mention, that that is part of the reason why the soldiers kill you. because they are not that smart. I would not say that they are stupid, but they do some of the dumbest things. Sometimes you will shoot one from a distance and the other soldiers will just run around in circles. The best enemies are the dinosaurs.

The graphics in Turok are really good. The environments look good, the character models look good, and the gun models also look pretty good.

The sound in Turok is also pretty good. The sound as you creep through the grass sound good. The music sounds, and the voice acting sounds good.

Turok also has a pretty good multi player. The multi player does take a lot of time to get use to, but after you get the hang of the multi player, this game is a blast. The modes are pretty much the same as all first person shooter. there are only a few maps, but now there is a map pack out theer that offers like five new maps. With out the map pack there are seven maps. The maps are cool because there are dinosaurs on them. So you can lead a dinosaur to kill another player, by shooting a flare on them. Over all Turok's multi player is really good, but Call of Duty 4 is still the king of multi player.

Over all Turok os a great game that just suffers from a few things, but it has a pretty good single player, and a really fun multi player, so at least give Turok a rentle.
