Turok:
Rage Wars is the latest development in the Turok
franchise, expanding off of where Turok 2 left off. But
instead of just another sequel for the series, Turok:
Rage Wars has taken the deathmatch part of Turok 2 and
created an entirely new multiplayer-oriented game.
Turok: Rage Wars runs off of an improved Turok 2 engine. Where as Turok 2 suffered from framerate problems, the engine has been reworked to provide a smooth, fast picture. Framerate problems are almost non-exsistant.The high-res graphics in Turok: Rage Wars are also along the line of Turok 2, with very little trade-off for the framerate issue.
What would Turok: Rage Wars be
without the infamous weaponry of the series? Well Rage
Wars is set with a bigger, better, and deadlier arsenal
of weapons. And you thought the Cerebral Bore was sick.
New weapons such as the Chestburster and the Emaciator
line the arsenal of Rage Wars. The Chestburster looks
like something out of the Aliens movies. You connect with
this weapon, and your opponent know he's been hit but
hasn't lost any health, until a few seconds later when an
alien embryo bursts out of their chest. Another new
feature is that each weapon also has a secondary
function, that will shoot differently or give a charater
special abilites. With all this, Turok: Rage Wars looks
to up Turok 2 or any game for that matter in the weapons
category.
Turok: Rage Wars will have 36 multiplayer maps catered to fast and furious action. The close-quarterd levels make for this so you don't have to spend all that time looking for your opponent. Rage Wars will also feature awards and rankings so you can get your bragging rights on. With four multiplayer modes, along with the return of the monkey, Rage Wars is looking fantastic. If you can't get some people, there is a single player mode with bots that do have pretty good AI, but this isn't what the game is meant to be. Turok: Rage Wars looks to be one of the big hits this winter, that can partly fill the void left by Perfect Dark. With its deadly arsenal of weapons, smooth framerates, and the high-res graphics, Turok: Rage Wars will be awesome. Turok: Rage Wars is set to be released on November 15th.
