[edit] Story

I added the basic story...feel free to add and take from it as you wikipedians see fit. I tried not to add in too many details, but it does contain major spoilers. [[User:SonicNiGHT|SonicNiGHT]] (talk) 15:58, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redirection

As it is right now, the Turok (video game) page redirects to Turok: Dinosaur Hunter. In the past, this was all well and good because it was the first Turok game, the same way that Halo (video game) redirects to Halo: Combat Evolved. Except now, this new game is coming out, and its title is just "Turok", making it a better fit for Turok (video game). Anyone else think we should re-redirect that page to point in this direction? Master Deusoma (talk) 06:55, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Seems to me no one else cares one way or the other, and since it seems a sound enough idea, I've gone ahead and done it. If you disagree very strongly, feel free to drop me a message. Master Deusoma (talk) 02:06, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Confirmed creatures

The confirmed dinosaurs need reliable sources to go with them. Merely saying they're confirmed is not enough. Also images aren't good sources because even though they may be proof to some, but to people who don't know the game or what a specific dinosaur looks like, they could be images of any creature from any game. ●Bill ^{(talk|contribs)} 03:11, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Maedis here, if you go to www.turok.com you can see a list of all the creatures they have. I have edited to dinosaur list ,as one dinosaur I found did not actually exist in the game. It is not on the turok site, and I have already beaten the game on both normal, and inhuman levels and I can confirm that the Carnosaurous does not appear in the game. I have edited the dinosaur list with the creatures I know are in the game, added a section for the Soldier Bugs and Flying dragonflys, and a section for known bosses (bosses i could name off the top of my head)

I also cleaned up the plot a bit, but that was before I signed on into my account.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Maedis (talk • contribs)

I found the section on the creatures on that site and that'll be a very good source. Unfortunately the website's entirely in flash so it's tricky to create a source that links directly to it. I'll add the link into the top of the section for now. ●Bill ^{(talk|contribs)} 02:29, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Can the Giganotosaurus really can't be killed. Also is there a dinosaur that gets killed by a Dilphosaurus in the game that resembles a raptor? Johnny542 (talk) 18:03, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Development" section

For anyone interested in creating a "Development" section, you can use these "Awakening The Giants: The Making of Turok" videos as a source, which I found on The Electric Playground homepage. I haven't watched the videos as I don't have sound on this computer. --Silver Edge (talk) 09:48, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ron Perlman as Slade

Anyone find it odd that Ron Perlman voices a character name Slade in this game and also voices the character Slade (Deathstroke) in Teen Titans? Anyone know if his character was given the name Slade intentionally in Turok or is it just happenstance that they are both the same. 76.116.109.221 (talk) 12:53, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
