Turok (series)/YMMV: Difference between revisions

Line 13:

* [[I Am Not Shazam]]: Subverted. With the exception of the original comics and the 2008 reboot, Turok is not the name of the protagonists in the games or the reboot comics, but rather a title that they are referred to. The confusion comes from the fact that in the first two games the characters shout [[This Is Sparta|"I....am Turok!"]] every time they get a extra life. Also, Tal'Set's name [[All There in the Manual|isn't mentioned at all in the first game.]]

* [[Nightmare Fuel]] - ''Seeds of Evil'' and ''Shadow of Oblivion'' have their moments.

* [[Porting Disaster]] - Part of why ''Evolution'' has such a bad reputation is the awful [[~~Play Station~~ 2]] port, which has significantly degraded graphics and framerate issues. The [[~~X Box~~]] and [[Nintendo ~~Gamecube~~|GameCube]] versions have pretty respectable graphics for those systems, but with the PS2 being a far more popular system than those two, that ended up being the version that most people were familiar with.

* [[Sci-Fi]] - For the most part.

* [[That One Boss]]: The giant sea-serpent/octopus monster in the 2008 game, with its cheap attacks, rock-throwing abilities and awkward weakness, is loathed by just about everyone who's played the game.
