"Thank you, Turok" - My Childhood

Holy fuck this game has been elevated to half life levels of quality. This is literally the first proper version of this game.

They did a great job with the first game. I owned both, Turok 1 and Seeds of Evil for the N64. Just being able to play it at 60 FPS is a god send. But they did much more with it and even added mod support. And they didn't gouge my wallet for either. I like these devs. I hope that they continue this trend of re-mastering older classics.

Terrific remaster. I remember that it kept my sanity intact two years ago when I broke my foot at work and was stuck at home for a few weeks, bought, played and 100% both Dinosaur Hunter and Seeds. It was also fascinating too see how easy it was to navigate the levels and finding the objectives this time compared to when I was a kid (played without the new hints).

Something else that you never mentioned: They gave out 25% discounts to anyone who owns Turok 1 HD, even the people who bought it for $5 to begin with. Night Dive is oficially THQ Nordic levels of awesome. Also, quick note as you mentioned motion sickness in the original: Turok 1 did patch in options to turn off the Quake 1 style strafe-bobbing and head-bob, as well as adding an FoV slider. It also has a full level editor now, which somebody used to remake Wolfenstein's first chapter (with a Doom E1M1 fan-map if you can find the secret area).

one of the best FPS games ever

Night Dive is to good for this world. We don't deserve them.

I had the 4mb expansion for my N64, bow down to me peasants.

Man, the stars have been aligning today: I got a coupon for Turok 2. The game itself is going onsale. And finally, this review for the game just came out.... ....Maybe its a sign?...Or just a coincidence. Heh.

i remember playing this back in high school. great review!

I am so damn happy to see these classics get remasters.

Maaan this brings some nostalgic memories into my mind.

Are night dive basically gods at this point?

I AM TUROK!

Been having a blast with these turok remasters. Great review thanks.

Hey Man, figured you should know: whenever I'm feeling so burnt out I can't even enjoy a game, you're my go-to. The only channel on KZfaq I enjoy. Thanks for making my life a little better. Thanks for being you.

Thank you for keeping your ear to the ground and a thorough critique.

Wonderful review. All aspects described. Thumps up!

Thanks for reminding me about this game, dude. It's been a blast to play through recently. With the addition of save slots, it's so much more fun to explore than when I played on the 64.

Interesting hearing your review here and your previous video and how adjustments make a world of difference.

"I... AM TUROK!" Thank you very much for covering this remaster, Gggmanlives! This remaster is awesome. I particularly love the save system, and the direction markers. I feel like I'm reliving the first time I played Turok 2 on my computer again, only with more accessibility. Now we'll just see if Night Dive can pull of a Turok 3 remaster.

Okay We got 2/3 of the Trilogy, All they have to do Is Remake/Remaster Turok 3: Shadow Of Oblivion and then things will be great :D

Nice to know that Im ur 43k subscriber. :) Keep the reviews coming :D

great review. defintely picking this up.

This looks like an excellent update. I'll definitely be checking it out, thanks for the review.

Ahh man i just knew you were going to review this, thank you sir!

great review keep up the good content

Hell yeah sonny Jim, I've been waiting for this one

Excellent review. It was one of my favorite N64 games back in the day and I'm glad I'll be able to play it again with HD resolutions and proper keyboard controls.

I remember as a kid turning off the blood on N64 not because of my parents. It was to receive less damage from zombies XD. That was the only time when censorship was actually useful... Man I wish there were more FPS like these and not like CoD...

I just Subbed to you Dude. Love your work man, Keep it up!

Loved playing this game as a kid. The remaster is a gem. Great review

I've been watching your playtime on steam for this and I've been dying to see this video and can't wait to play this

the cerebral bore getting some love, that gun was so much fun. my friends hated me in multiplayer for using it so often. awesome review

Great to hear that this turned out well. I was really anticipating their release of turok 2 since I played the remaster of the first one.

Excellent review. Really good writing and pacing.

3:03 How did you get the old Turok life icon back?

You’re 100% on point! Great work

I bought a paper round and worked hard to get 10 new customers, so I had 30 in total. They paid me 30p paper, and I bought the papers for 24p. Delivered 6 days a week. I sent them Christmas cards and got so many tips in 1998 that I bought Turok 2 and Zelda. Best Christmas ever. The multiplayer was the first that I remember that had head shots. Brilliant.

My childhood memories!! this game bring back so many memories...

this game is amazing. just played through it recently and it holds up so well due to the remaster, its such a fun game and i love all the different weapons you get. i love how fast Turok is and how you can strafe around using all different types of guns to kill enemies. The only thing thats annoying is getting lost on some levels. I had to look up guides on youtube, esp for The Lair of the Blind Ones. but I mean, thats kind of a thing of that game era. Many games didnt really point you in the direction where you should go. It was very easy to get lost, esp as a kid. It was a way to make the game artificially longer I guess.

Night Dive has killed it with their reamakes. I would love to see them do some more games from my childhood!

Dang. Great Review. You're really making me consider buying it now. Especially since I came here the first day you posted this. lol

Man, I loved this game when I was a kid! And it was tough as hell! I'm definitely getting this version to relive some of the memories!

The game looks insanely over the top and fun.

I used to play this game like crack cocane. As well as golden eye and prefect dark.

Oh man, I had Turok 2 for the N64, and now I have it on my brand new laptop. And it looks and handles better than I remember. And it occupies less than a gigabyte! This review (and Night Dive Studios) nailed it!

Never finished EVEN ONE FUCKING LEVEL in the original... Fuck...

I played the shit outta turok as a kid. Can't wait for turok 3 remaster!

GGMANLIVES is THE BEST ! one of my favorite channels ever !

Just bought this game. Brought it home. I'm sitting here with it still wrapped up in the package. After seeing your video I now know I need to take it back. Thank you

I love these upgrades. Can’t wait to play this now. I wish they’d redone part 3 too.

Remember playing this game very well, Turok SOE & Goldeneye were my favorite games for the N64.Hopefully they will bring turok back someday, especially with today's grafics.

oh man, i loved the weapons in this game. that cerebral bore was epic! that nuke weapon was crazy too

These animations(weapons,deaths) are really awesome.Even on this years!

Loved this game as a kid and still do, so glad to see it getting some much deserved attention.

crazy how 6 years ago you mentioned the system shock remake. and now today we finally have our hands on it!

Oh the memories, this is one of the first games i ever played. My gaming career started with Turok 2 :D

the nostalgiaaaaaaa

21:9 support? Haven't checked into it, but looks great!

so I had just gone through both of your reviews regarding the initial PC port and then this remaster, and there was a couple issues I remember you mentioning with the former that wasn't brought up at all here. namely how the PC port had "inconsistent hit detection" and was "stingy when it came to ammo pickups" is it safe to presume that was fixed here, especially on the ammo issue?

Oh man, i used to play Turok back then, and it was amazing.

I played it as a kid and it gave me night terrors of being eaten by dinosaurs.

I never played Turok 2 back in the 90s, but man does this look fun!

Playing this with sister growing up was fucking awesome. I miss the old days

They added quick saving too which is totally awesome. I remember replaying a section of Turok at least 5 times due to the check point system. I was just curious about which soundtrack is better the N64 or PC?

I remember this game from when I was a kid, being part of the games I inherited from my cousin when he gave me his old Nintendo 64. Now, it was the year 2000 and I was 6-years-old, so the game freaked the fuck out of me, but I came back to it a couple of years later and found it very interesting. I'm happy to see the remastered truly makes the game shine.

Oh boy, I need to get on this.

Really good review

i really like quake1 and i still play it today. would i like turok 1 e 2 too?

Great video! You plan on doing more console based shooters like Winback or Psi-Ops?

What do you think of the game demo from Heathen? Its the first game that actually has excited me in a long time.

thanks for this review, it answered all questions i had about the remaster and more. still hoping they do an xbox one port so i can play it.

It pisses me off that big budget PC titles can fuck up so badly then little Nightdive comes along shows you how to do it right.

Every single time there is a weapon that vaguely resembles a boomerang the Aussie loves it

The Steam version, is it only controller supported or can you play with the mouse like an FPS ? Because i remember playing this game on PC using mouse keyboard no emulator

I never go far in this game as a child (or any game for that matter). This review has made me want to try it again, so thanks!

We used to play multiplayer but use a gameshark to teleport to single player and boss levels. It was fun fighting each other when a boss was also hunting you.

the corpses stay or disapear??? and what are the gameplay options given at the menu???? please answer!

Does the Remaster still have the ammo starvation you complained about in your original review?

Wow this remaster looks great!!

I remember playing 3v1 multiplayer where three people were hunters and one person was a raptor. Raptor claw headshots were the best.

I found the majority of the difficulty do be because of the infinitely respawning enemies. It pissed me off to no end trying to find the last item I needed for three hours fighting endless waves of enemies that respawned every time I turned a corner, and the levels in this game are frickin huge. That´s what I loved about the Doom games. When an enemy is dead it won´t come back, giving you all the time in the world to look for secrets and buttons and the like.

This remaster is freaking fantastic!!

Do grenades work properly now, as in they do proper splash damage? I still love the original game, only last year I played it on emulator, so a suped up version sounds great.

Watching this video while I'm installing this. I have it on N64, but I always had trouble getting past the frame rate, even back then. Can't wait to go through this remaster.

I remember as a child a friends dad driving us to a friends house, who had borrowed a N64 memory card. This was an out of town friend so it been a while since we’d seen him. When he gave him the memory card, my friends dad hold it up and says,”it’s good you didn’t lose this, it’s got all of Turok 2 on it and that shit took forever.”

Very happy to have this downloading and the next four days off. Just started Final Doom with Project Brutality, UDV, and HQPSXMUS mods as well.

I just got through playing this in the last couple days and it was just as good I remember it from my childhood. After finishing it I learned that they altered the maps a bit to make them more streamlined, but I didn't notice at all. Probably because I barely remembered the original maps. Still, it was an amazing remaster. Hopefully it got the game more exposure because it's a really great FPS.

Glad to hear the ND Studios is doing well by these old games - will definitely pick this up during a sale.

0:45 "Nightdive have done a pretty bang-up job" just as a lizardman runs through the wall. Good remaster. I just thought it's a great timing for this bug and narration.

THANK YOU. This review does the N64 Turok games justice. I am glad they made remastered versions for both games. GG!

I REALLY liked this game when I was a teen. The variety of weapons is impressive, even nowdays.

ive always wanted to play this game, time to give it a go

Do you plan on reviewing Reflex Arena? That game's a blessing

Review...Is very good man...XD Great Voice..This is the game that made me good at csg!!

0:46 Did that monster just phase through the wall? Was that in the original game's cutscene?
