PS3 vs. X360: Turok and Unreal Engine 3 Hands-On Comparison

Gameplayer has gone hands-on with close to final builds of the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of Turok, which is running on Unreal Engine 3. They compare the two versions of the game in this article.

"Indeed, at the time of our visit the Xbox 360 version of the game had just passed Microsoft's perusal without a hitch (something of a rarity we're told) and the game had just landed in the hands of Sony for their stamp of approval. And they'll get it, very enthusiastically."

That is until Kotaku and Gamespot and Gametrailers slap the ps3 version on a 2002 hdtv, using S-video cables and they crank the brightness and contrast up to warp speed.

You have a tough name to decipher, my friend. Even now I have yet to unravel your true identity.

n4gno6423d ago

Hmm, they are not so much better than the others : talking like no other game is "playing identically" : cod4, sega rally, fifa, nhl, and more, are the same, and some are better like dirt, oblivion for example.

It's just normal now, but for 2008 we want better versions for ps3. (not a bad 360 version, oh noo !! the best 360 version "she" could have, and more for the more powerfull console)

SlappingOysters6423d ago

Sure, but those games do not use Unreal Engine 3... which was the point.

AngryTypingGuy6423d ago

toughNAME, great response! LOL, you're correct, there always seems to be controversy, right? Yes, every game reviewer has it in for Sony, that's it. And last night, I had dinner with Big Foot, saw a UFO, and became rich after I captured a leprechaun.

lol. wow. kudos to turok team. I might check the title out. I dont really like shooters that much since they are basically all the same so its a long shot but if turok can do enough to set it apart frm the rest i'll give it a try. I first gotta get my hands on the demo. Heard you can get 1 if you preorder. Hopefully the release it on marketplace or psn sooner or later. Last i heard of this game they said they were done with the 360 version and they were basically jst focusing on the ps3 version. WOW. most devs would have jst released the 360 version and handed the ps3 version to some other dev(screw valve) and that would have been that. Good lookin out for the ps3. Would have gotten orange box for 360 but that gabe newells ps3 hatred changed my mind. I played only halflife 2 and it was pretty good. Would have loved to play the whole thing but oh well

Douchebaggery6423d ago

I was really jonesing for another comparison

gamesR4fun6423d ago (Edited 6423d ago )

Its nice to see both consoles with the same quality game. Hopefully people will show their support and give this game a go.With so many good fps out and just about to come out...

Sweet, the Unreal Engine 3 is looking good on the PS3.

Nightdive Studios Quietly Uploaded A Native PS5 Version Of The Original Turok, Now Runs At 120FPS

After releasing remasters of all three original Turok games, starting with the first two games in 2021 and then Turok 3 in 2023, Nightdive Studios has quietly updated the first Turok game with a native PS5 update.

Beyond the bug fixes and general cleaning-up that comes with most patches these days, the big thing about the PS5 version for the original Turok is that if you have a TV that can support it, you’ll be able to play Turok at 120FPS now.

Turok: A Game Series in Need of a Reboot

The Turok series has been languishing without a new title for more than a decade. It's about time we got a reboot.

closed_account759d ago

I'm all for it, I loved the originals... I just don't think, just like w the original Prey, that the main character can survive in this current political climate. Native characters seem untouchable at the moment. I think it can be shown the right respect, but there's always someone getting upset about something these days, they would find a way to cancel it.

BriBri758d ago

I can't think of a game that's been cancelled because of the race of the main character.

Vits759d ago

Honestly, I would prefer if they just ported/remastered Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion to modern platforms. So we could have access to the "original 3 games". Because I don't see how to really reboot Turok. It's a product of its time being a mixture of platforming/fps and puzzle.

And I really don't see all those elements being preserved on a Reboot.

lukasmain759d ago

I would prefer Dino Crisis remake from Capcom. Still, a remade Turok would get my attention.

FreeckyCake759d ago (Edited 759d ago )

Forgets about the 2008 reboot*
I'd rather have a sequel to Turok 3, tbh.

GoodGuy09758d ago (Edited 758d ago )

We unfortunately do not have enough quality dino games. Theres Horizon but they're robots, and Monster Hunter that I can only think of. I'd like to see Turok make a comeback some day.
