The N64 game was so successful and popular that devs feel like they can create a game with a 'name' behind it to attract sales. Unfortunately, the games since the first N64 game have largely been crap.

I actually think the second N64 game, Seeds of Evil, was the best one.

Both Turoks were absolute garbage. I bought it the day it came out, and, well, have no idea what happened to the game after that.

Past games aside, any word on how THIS DEMO is?

You'd think that there would be some impressions somewhere... I have not heard anything yet though.

I'm an idiot, how do you download this?

I have my doubts it's really out yet. I can't find it anywhere on live, new releases or otherwise. It was probably just sent out to get approved, people got a hold of that news and somewhere through the grapevine it got mistaken for being released.

The official word is that its not in the US yet. OXM has a exclusive on the demo for a while. Probably be out within the month though (my guess).
 
The original Turok is the only game I ever played that gave me motion sickness. The head bob just made me want to puke.

With that being said, I guess I'll play this demo. 😉

i seriously think this demo is going to take sales away from Turok.

Agreed.

What better to show off your game than drop a player in a pitch black cave and get attacked by randomly spawning raptors?

Horrible level to provide for a demo.

Exactly, my first comments were "It's too fricken dark, I can't see a thing." And this is on a 52" 1080p Plasma on the PS3. The game did nothing for me.

Turok Demo is now available for North America.

Thanks for the heads up, Queasy. I'll check it out considering it's free but from the feedback here I don't have high expectations.

** Anyone know if the full version will be coop?

Same here. Just finished the demo, and I was extremely happy when I finally got out of the cave.

I don't know, the game isn't all that bad actually. It's not great or anything, but not all that bad. It's pretty fun to attract the raptors and start a fight between them and the enemy. It's pretty funny also to shoot a flare into a raptor's leg and watch him limp around and go nuts. :laugh:
