    A few glitches in the game have driven the critics crazy. But I found it wonderful. Best hunting game out there in my opinion.

    Will compare unfavorably to Halo in many ways, but this game is definitely fun. I actually like the look of it better (with some minor complaints) and prefer its emphasis on stealth. Awesome sound!

    I found the game highly enjoyable. the only gripes were the slightly n64ish graphics and flyng sections. the sound is brilliant and the animations rocked. in some places it is vastly better than halo! i though that it had way more atmosphere than halo, and the dino setting was awesome.

    Yes it was that bad! I can't believe the developers at the face to release this, they haven't made an attempt to use the power of the console. I had a sneaking suspicion that prequels were rubbish after I watched Star Wars: Phantom Menace at the flicks. Turok Evolution has confirmed it. Graphics are mediocre, most of the enemy characters look 2D, and something else which Yes it was that bad!

Graphics are mediocre, most of the enemy characters look 2D, and something else which illustrates the whole 2D feel is the way flat 2D walls of ferns prevent you from walking our of the environment. Just play the first level and you?ll see what I mean. Getting over how poor everything looks the actual game isn?t much good either. The most challenging thing is fending off the little ankle biter type dinosaurs which leap at you from every 2D bush. Halo has set the standard for FPS, the standard is high but I wish these people had a decent crack at it. … Expand

    Mindless, bloody fun. The lack of checkpoints and gameplay variety is annoying, but it's good enough if you're willing to ignore a few design flaws so you can go kill dinosaurs.

    I understand that people don't like this, but in my opinion it is one of the best games ever, I am a hardcore Halo fan but still enjoy this game. I would personally recommend this game despite its quirks due to its fun and somewhat funny gameplay.

    There are so many impressive features that the artificial intelligence, in its best moments, rivals and occasionally surpasses even that of Bungie’s epic shooter "Halo."

    There are plenty of great moments, but the complete package falls a bit short. [Nov 2002, p.112]

    Though the FPS levels are solid in design, the game’s mediocre flying levels constantly get in the way of what is good about the game.
