Zero Punctuation Chews on Turok (and the FPS Genre in General)

It’s that magical time again; time for another hilarious review from The Escapist’s Yahtzee Croshaw. This time however, he’s taking a slightly different route with his review of Turok. Rather than focusing on the game’s individual flaws, he’s holding it up as an example of what’s wrong with first-person shooters in general these days. And I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who’s tired of the whole “zooming into the back of a person’s head to enter FPS mode” gimmick.
For a more, um, focused take on Turok, be sure to check out Chris’s impressions.
This guy makes Wednesdays so much more enjoyable……..
He makes Wednesdays, full stop!
That was brilliant. The little details in this one are fantastic as well. I love how when he did the teacher’s notes over the Halo cover, he circled the Forerunner O and drew an actual O instead.
City Of Lost Children is teh shit
I look forward to every Wednesday.
That was pretty good… he had some good points too.
Console shooters need auto-aim! Ala Metroid Prime as shown in the review.
