Acclaim allowed us a delightful preview of their upcoming first-person adventure called Turok: Dinosaur Hunter. Originally one of the first titles unveiled for the Nintendo 64, Turok has been built from the ground-up to utilize the advanced hardware to its fullest extent. Your mission in this action-filled journey is to stop a tyrannical cyborg called The Campaigner from using the Chronoscepter, a time traveling gizmo, to break the space-time continuum. This task takes you through a mysterious dimension called the Lost Valley which is bursting from the seams with dinosaurs, aliens, robots, and other strange pests.

Turok's Lost Valley is a stunning 3-D world, as one may expect from a Nintendo 64 cart. Battling fearsome foes with your trusty Tek-Bow and tomahawk takes place in a landscape shrouded with fog - likely to hide any polygonal pop-ins, though it does add an element of tenseness to the previewed sequences. One major highlight is the flexible and non-linear nature of the Lost Valley. Warps can take you to various locales to play out the chapters in any order you choose, and the objectives are said to vary greatly from one to the next. Get ready to vanquish velociraptors when Turok hits the scene this fall.
