Prime of Nostalgia

I didn't play Turok 2 back when it came out, if I had to base my opinion about the game putting into perspective when it originally released, I would have to base it off of people's comments towards the game at the time. Most of them were positive, it recieved critical acclaim and was held by many, and it is even held by many, to this day, as one of the best first person shooters ever made. Sadly, as it usually happens, the standards, and norms that were present for video games inside the industry back then, aren't the same ones that are present right now. As an end result, the game ends up feeling dated, despite Night Dive studios greatest effort to "modernize" an old classic. The game looks as pristine as it can be, no more fog to cover the vistas that spread across the horizon, wonderful post processing effects to give the ilussion of a current release, or remaster, that work fairly well in creating such a representation. Fantastic and fast paced gameplay that now I can see how influential it ended up being, from Quake, to even Unreal, and Halo. Multiple secrets, violence galore, endless replayability... Terrible, and oudated, level design. The biggest issue about this game is how long the levels are, and the fact that you are required to complete random objectives in order to complete each of the levels, whilst also making sure you collect every key, and collectible as you go along. Miss one of the objectives, and by the end of the level you're thrown at the start to play the level again with less enemies than before, in order to complete the mandatory random objective that you missed in order to continue to the next level. The keys are required to open future levels as well. The placement of all of this things is cryptic and quite complex, it is fairly difficult after a while to get most of the things you need by just playing the game naturally and I would have to recommend you to play this game with a guide in hand. This hurt the game for me.

It's a real (cerebral) bore.

I loved Turok 2 back in my N64 days. Unfortunately, the game was far too ambitious for the console. Even with the Expansion Pak, the game would often become a slideshow when there was too much action on screen. Now, almost 20 years later, we get a good (but currently flawed) remaster. All the weapons from the original Turok 2 are here, including the greatest weapon ever designed, the blissfully brutal Cerebral Bore. It still amazes me that more FPS games don't have a weapon like it. Best of all, NO FOG! If you've played Turok 1, you know what I'm talking about. If you like violent, retro shooters definitely grab Turok 2. the game's performance at the time of this review isn't perfect, but hopefully, Night Dive will patch in some fixes.

Classic

When I was 10 or 11 I never completed any level of this game and even today I needed to check the web to finish the first level. If there wasnt a master cheatcode I wouldnt have seen much anything of the game. I even remembered the code.. I only had the german cut version back then, without any blood. Jesus if I imagine I would have played THIS version instead, wow, tripple the fun I would have had.

Well done remaster for Turok fans

I'll begin by saying that the remastering is done well and the upgraded engine gives the game a nice face lift. On my high-end rig I had no trouble keeping a stable 60 fps even with everything turned on. The controls felt responsive and the game only crashed once during my playthrough. The game itself turned out to be bit of a disappointment. Even though the first couple of levels aren't that bad, the level design takes a pretty noticeable hit in quality as you progress further. They get very repetitive and maze-like to the point that unless I was looking at the map, I had a difficult time keeping track of places I had already been to and where I actually needed to go. Be prepared for long grinds through identical looking corridors while you search for the next item or switch required to progress. Did I mention that the enemies respawn? If you look past the unfortunate issues with level design, Turok 2 is a pretty standard 90's FPS. There's not much of a plot to speak of, but I guess that would just get in the way of, you know, watching an alien getting its brains drilled out by a cerebral bore.

Best version of Turok 2

Better, Resolution, Shadows, Effects with added widescreen and 60+fps, fog is also removed by default, but if you enjoyed the atmoshere the fog created you can add some to the game in the options, however I think it could of been better impleamented for example a better fade in and out, the way it is currently done is you can see the level draw in and undraw through the fog too much which looks awful. There is a lot of complaints by newbies to Turok 2 about the level design and even some past fans returining to it, I personally don't find it to be an issue, maybe as I completed it over 10 times now. There was nothing new added to Turok 2 like NightDives version of ShadowMan or Turok (Turok had a level editor added) which was disappointing in that regard, and the min requirements to run this game are heavy for an old game even with all the added extras. If you played this and loved it on the N64 you will just be happy with the fps boost, but you get other graphical improvements too.
