	Turok: Dinosaur Hunter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Turok: Dinosaur Hunter is a first-person shooter video game for the Nintendo 64 game console and for Microsoft Windows on the PC.
		When first released for the PC, Turok: Dinosaur Hunter was one the first games to implement some of the cutting-edge computer graphics technologies of the time, including realistic water and distance fog.
		Turok: Dinosaur Hunter is also a bloody game, where creatures die violently, with blood spraying out of their neck and head, when killed.

	GameOver - Turok 2: Seeds of Evil (c) Acclaim
		Turok 2, the new first person shooter from acclaim, makers of NBA Jam and Turok, try to solve the frame rate problem that was encountered in the Nintendo 64 port of Turok 2 by bringing forth the power of the 3d accelerator.
		Turok 2's graphics are great and I found the frames per second to be constantly high on my Pentium II 266.
		Turok 2 is a byproduct of this development cycle.

	Turok: Dinosaur Hunter (n64: 1997): Reviews
		To be Turok -- in the Saquin Nation language -- is to be a Son of Stone -- a protector of Earth.
		Turok's flashy stuff notwithstanding, it is the game's incredibly rich and complex level construction and enemy AI that will keep your heart pounding and the sweat beading until the very end.
		Turok has some good points (namely the graphics and weapons) and some bad points (confusing level design and overuse of fog), but the overall game is still fun to play.

	Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion Review for Nintendo 64 - Gaming Age (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The introduction of Turok 3 has put the frame rate in a bit of a midpoint where it isn’t exactly 30 frames per second smooth as was originally stated, but it never reaches the slide-show point of Turok 2.
		Turok 3 expands upon the multiplayer aspect with the inclusion of eight different kinds of multiplayer, including Bloodlust, Capture the Flag, Last Stand, Golden Arrow, Monkey Tag, Arsenal of War, Color Tag and Weapons Master.
		Turok 3 might not have the deathmatch customization that Rare’s Perfect Dark has, but there’s enough variety that any first person shooter buff should be more than satisfied.

		While you could be on either side of the fence for Turok 2, there is no doubt that Turok: Rage Wars and Turok 3 were the absolute lowest the series and the FPS genre have seen.
		It seems that the Turok team took care and patience for 70% of the crucial details in the game, and then threw the other 30% of it together in a week.
		Controlling Turok is as much fun as trying to ride a bicycle with one foot pedaling the opposite direction in rush hour traffic.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Turok, Son of Stone
		The most famous of these Dell Comics originals was Pogo, but the one that lasted longest as a Dell title was Turok, Son of Stone.
		Turok first appeared in Four Color Comics (the catch-all Dell comic that published everything from Woody Woodpecker to Kona, Monarch of Monster Isle) #596 (December, 1954).
		First as a quarterly, then bimonthly, the Turok, Son of Stone title chronicled dozens of adventures Turok and Andar had with dinosaurs, primitive cave men and other anachronisms, for the rest of the 1950s, and beyond.

	Turok: Evolution for PlayStation 2 Review - PlayStation 2 Turok: Evolution Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Tal'Set is rescued by the indigenous people of this primitive world, and from the seer Tarkeen he learns that he is Turok, the legendary Son of Stone sent to battle the villainous reptilian Sleg and their master, Lord Tyrannus.
		As in past games, the storyline in Turok: Evolution is passable, but nobody really plays first-person shooters for their stories, anyway, and the plot here serves mainly as an excuse to frag some dinosaurs.
		The original Turok game's subtitle, "Dinosaur Hunter," may be consistent with the license's comic-book roots, but in Evolution, you won't be battling as many of the massive beasts as you might hope.

	Turok: Dinosaur Hunter N64 Review by Scott McCall
		Upon putting Turok: Dinosaur Hunter into the Control Deck, it was quite easy to see that this game would be one of love and hate.
		Turok's gameplay is, without question, the make or break part of the game.
		Nevertheless, Turok: Dinosaur Hunter was still impressive a year later and is probably second only to GoldenEye 007 as the best one-player 3D action/shooter on any platform (at this point).

	GamingWorld X - Turok: Evolution Review
		Turok is historically a series that, at the heart of it all, features over the top combat where gory death animations, hordes of clever enemies, and wildly excessive weapons abound.
		All in all the flight levels are a fun and interesting distraction from the main FPS levels, and a worthy addition to the Turok series mainstays: abundant gore and glorious weaponry.
		If you are a Turok fan it is a no-brainer purchase, marred by some minor bugs but it remains more of the same Turok gameplay only it looks twice as nice.

		For the gamer that either has given up before these levels ended, or the gamer yet to play Turok I suggest suffering through the first 4 levels as the game is far more rewarding in the later levels.
		Turok’s story (or lack thereof) mode isn’t the only option available, and the multiplayer mode is where this game is a keeper for the long haul.
		Overall, Turok does some things good, and other things really bad, but in the end you are left with another shooter that can be described only as mediocre.

	Turok, Son of Stone
		Turok was a brave Kiowa warrior living some time in the 1800's before the arrival of white men.
		I don't know who all of the artists who worked on Turok were, but the one who is best known is probably Alberto Gioletti.
		As a child, the stories thrilled me, and I was able to overlook flaws, such as calling herbivores "flesh eaters." It also seemed to me that the poison arrows worked a little too quickly, killing the targeted dinosaur virtually on contact.

	The Armchair Empire - Playstation 2 (PS2) Reviews: Turok: Evolution
		Taking the mantle of Turok, Tal’Set is going to have some difficulty in lasting through the brutality and the shear numbers of the opposition.
		For the unitiated, TE continues in the same vein as the previous Turok games – you have to fight against both superior numbers (dino-like soldiers) and the occasional dinosaur that thinks you might be a tasty snack.
		Most of the Turok games have been best known for their difficult battles against numerous enemies – the battles here are more like moving between stationary fights than a search and destroy FPS.

		However, Lewis cautioned that parents should not immediately name their new children Turok unless they are so inclined anyway, as the company will first have to certify exactly which contestant was born first.
		The winning parents will have to sign a letter of intent promising to name their child Turok for a period of one year and then prove that they have done so in order to collect.
		Turok: Evolution, which carries a "Mature" rating from the Entertainment Software Rating Board, is the latest game in a franchise that Acclaim said has generated more than $250 million in sales, with 6 million copies of the games sold.

		Turok Evolution doesn’t reinvent the first-person shooter genre – it generally lives up to its “Evolution” subtitle.

		It is now up to Turok, who has gotten a haircut, to put a wrench into the foul plans of the Primagen over the course of 6 massive levels.
		Turok 2 features weapons like the Cerebral Bore, a weapon which locks onto the brainwaves of intelligent creatures, sticks to their heads, drains their brains onto the pavement, and then detonates their cranium.

		While most gamers raved over the original Turok, we were more thrilled with Shadows of the Empire.
		Turok was a long and arduous game where you spent most of the time looking at the ground and your impossibly circular shadow.
		Turok 3 is not only manageable, but it is addicting.

	Turok Evolution - Ferrago
		Firstly, Turok Evolution is set before the N64 titles; it is essentially a prequel, which is a clever way of avoiding going over the same old ground again.
		But this is a Turok game and if you bought it for the plot, you most probably think Chris Ryan novels are the height of literary genius.
		Turok Evolution is no Halo, but the graphics get the job done, they are crisp, solid and the dinosaurs and enemies move wonderfully.

		Turok seemed like a one-game-shot-character to me, but apparently its sequel was supposed to be far superior than its predecessor.
		When Turok 2: seeds of evil is looked at from a gamers perspective, it looses its touch because of overwhelming areas and repetitive monsters.

		Then not too long ago, speculation surfaced that another installment in the Turok series was set for release on one of the next generation platforms.
		First of all, before we start anything, let it be known that Turok: Evolution doesn’t continue the Turok series, in fact it’s actually a prequel, which explains events that are in connection with the games on the N64.
		That's right, Turok: Evolution has kind of "matured" more since it's N64 brothers and sissies, as there is a ton more violence and blood than there ever was in the other games.

		Playing through Turok 3: Shadows of Oblivion would have treated the player to one of the richer storylines in the series, and one that strongly hinted at a continuation during the final epilogue.
		Surprisingly, though, Turok Evolution, the latest chapter from Acclaim, prequels the whole storyline by telling the tale of Tal'Set, the first Turok and first Native American to breach the border between our world and the Lost Land.
