GC 2006 :: Turok – PS3 and Xbox 360
Turok is a story-driven first-person shooter set on a dark, mysterious planet in the near future.
Players take on the role of Joseph Turok, a former Black Ops commando, now part of an elite Special Forces squad on a mission to take down a war criminal on a genetically-altered planet. After his ship is shot down while approaching the planet, Joseph Turok must use his instincts and elite military training to elude an army of well-trained soldiers, and the ravenous, unpredictable creatures that populate the dangerous environment.
Turok is set in a dark, gritty sci-fi world which, hope BVG, will be showcased through next-gen gameplay, high-resolution graphics and immersive sound . Humans are your primary enemy - highly-trained soldiers are set to challenge players with sophisticated AI and advanced tactics.
But you’ll also encounter genetically-altered dinosaurs and other deadly creatures, who you can trick into attacking your enemies or each other. Of course, you’ll be able to choose your combat style, obliterating enemies with excessive firepower or use fast stealth weapons such as the bow and knife to take ‘em down. There are multiple ways to survive depending on the strategy you choose.
No shooter would be complete without a range of high-tech military vehicles to command and control and there’s a selection of online multiplayer modes in the pipeline too.
Turok is slated for a 2007 release on Xbox 360 and PS3.
