I BOUGHT THIS GAME UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT LIKE IT'S SEQUELS IT WOULD PLAY ON MY PC...AND BOY WAS I WRONG. AS TURNS OUT THEY APPARENTLY APLLIED WIERD SOFTWARE UPDATE ON THAT WILL BASICALLY (FROM MY WHAT I COULD FIND ANY WAYS.) PREVENT THIS GAME FROM RUNNING ON AT LEAST 50% OF MOST PCS EVER AGAIN. (TO MY KNOWLEDGE AT LEAST MOST COMPUTERS HAVE INTEL SOFTWARE OF SOME KIND IN THEM, GRAPHICS OR OTHER WISE BUT I'M NO COMPUTER EXPERT EITHER SO I COULD BE VERY WRONG ON THAT.) AND AS YOU COULD IMAGINE I COULDN'T EVEN GET THE THING TO START. SO HERE'S MY REVIEW DON'T BUY ON THE PC IT YOU WILL JUST WASTE BOTH YOUR TIME AND MONEY AND IF YOU MUST PLAY FALLOUT 3. IT GET IT ON ONE OF THE OLD CONSOLES, AS AT LEAST FOR ALL OF THE CONSOLE VERSIONS FAULTS YOU CAN STILL PLAY THEM. WITH THIS VERSION YOU CAN'T EVEN DO THAT ANY MORE THANKS TO THAT STUPID UPDATE. (Or better yet just get fallout: new vegas. It's fallout 3 but better in almost every way possible including being able to actually play it on pc.)
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.
