A fantastic first person shooter

This game is the most stereotypical 90s game I've ever played, and I love it! Ultra macho character CHECK! Fighting humans, monsters, aliens and robots for no apparent reason CHECK! Shitloads of enemies and weapons CHECK! Huge levels with incredible level design CHECK! Boss fights CHECK! Technically impressive... well for 1997... CHECK! Literally 1 line of dialog in the whole game CHECK! The game is really fun to play, and it's good to have a version of it that runs out of the box on modern hardware, but there are a couple of things I didn't like. First of all: the price! 20 euros for an old game are quite a lot, but it was really fun to play so I'll forgive that Second: some enemies respawn, and it's immensely annoying, especially those bloody flies! Last but not least: the map sucks ass! No zoom, and a lot of times, some areas aren't even mapped. I can understand not showing secret areas, but a lot of caves aren't mapped either, and the tutorial literally says that if you get lost in a cave, you can use the map. Real clever.

Worth it, even at $20

Just played through it in 2 days. Turok was something I remembered from long ago, but the N64 wasn't up to the task and that hindered the game greatly. The remastered version is spot on. I'm not sure what the noise about the price is about. Get it on sale if you can, sure! But I don't think "it's from the 90s" is a valid reason for it to be much less than $20. A lot of work went into remastering it, folks, and that deserves the cost of a few Starbucks coffees. For those who never played it, think fast paced, keep moving gameplay with lots of secrets, a hub level that lets you go in and out of levels to get the goodies and keys you missed, and lots of enemies that mostly die easy with a bunch that die much harder deaths to spice it up. Decent platforming in spots, good controls, cool weapons. Tip: go into the options and enable PC music (vs N64 music), and turn off view bobbing completely (especially the other bobbing option, whatever it's called, that tilts the camera when you strafe). You do a lot of running and weaving, and the bobbing can be a bit annoying. Lastly, good options abound, and most things can be toggled, including the modern draw distance. It even includes a mod to restore the original levels (without some tweaks that were done to modernize the game). Look in the editormods folder in the game folder. Don't expect super-modern deep Prey style gameplay, but if an odd mix of dinosaurs, particle blood spray, Serious Sam speed, and hunting for those little spots and secret ledges that get you to the keys, buy the game.

The Speed

Excellent to finally get a chance to play this game at a full 60FPS as opposed to the 10 FPS or so it ran on the N64. Some open level design areas that repopulate and having to actually conserve ammunition is rather amazing compared to other games that were out at the time. However, some levels I have had issues finding out where I had to go and they left me wandering for some time. If you miss a key that you desperately need before you leave, that can also really be aggrivating as you'll have to repeat the level again in order to get the key before you head back to the Hub Area. Worth it if you only ever tried it in the past with low frame rates and want to see how this game handles at higher speeds with enemies that react more in real time than the snails pace that the consoles of yesteryear allowed. That being said, I give you full warning: Due to the enhanced speed and the camera 'lean' effect the game has when you run around at fast speeds, it can cause motion sickness. You might have to limit your time playing it and it could potentially make you sick to your stomach. You have been warned!

ARE YOU NUTS!!!

Don't get me wrong. Turok 1 and 2 are good games, heck I'd say great even, especially for their time. and these modern ports do a pretty good job of bringing these old-school fps classics to modern systems for new generations to enjoy, with better controls than what us old timers had back on the n64 to boot but there is just one problem and a major one at that. and that is the price point. asking people to pay $19.99 a piece for two games that while they are indeed classics. and they are most definitely better than any of the other pieces of modern cookie-cutter mass-produced AAA tripe that the games industry tries to force down our throats every year. (I'm looking at you call of duty!) they are unfortunately also very old and despite the quality of life improvements that night dive has implemented into both games. the only people that are going to be interested in playing them are either people like myself who grew up with these games and want them back in their game libraries because of nostalgia. or people who just like retro games in general and don't mind the practically ancient. at least by today's standards gameplay and graphics and all the pros and cons that come with them, for god's sake when I first bought these. (it was on my switch) I only paid $6.99 for each and that was just after they released them. (though as I type this they are now $19.99 on the e-shop as well) but to make my final point clear, these are good games, good old games you might say but at the end of the day, they are just that. good OLD games and while that is perfectly acceptable in my book. Charging these outrageous prices for them is not. so I'm going to have to recommend that while you should definitely buy both of these games, do NOT!! pay the full asking price for them, wait for them to go on sale first before you do, and if they DON'T put them on sale here at GOG then go somewhere else where they have them on sale frequently just please don't pay full price for them.

Solid shooter

Turok was never my favorite. Not back then, not now. But it is a solid retro style shooter with interesting level design and a fun setting. Sure, there are plenty of games that have a similar setting these days, but back then it was something fresh. I would suggest to wait for a sale however, the standard price is not worth it in my eyes.
