Turok Evolution – GameCube
The Turok series sees a fantastic update in Acclaim Entertainment’s first Turok release on the brand new and impressive 6th generation consoles. Turok: Evolution is a prequel to the first Turok: Dinosaur Hunter game with updated controls, graphics, and gameplay. While the story mode is still the bread and butter of the franchise, Turok: Evolution’s multiplayer mode makes excellent use of 13 maps and a 4-player split screen. The days of Turok 64 are long gone.

Forever.
