Here's the sequel for the N64  we've been waiting for! The fight for peace and tranquility continues in Turok 2 seeds of evil! Is this sequel better than the first? Let's take a look.
            So, what's new? Well, there's more weapons, stages, enemies, and above all a death match option. The weapons had been approved greatly, and I mean greatly! Here are some of the new weapons that you can add to your arsenal: a Shredder(an upgrade to your shotgun, fires bluish laser that spreads and bounces off walls hitting your enemies in the "hard to reach" places), a Cerebral bore (goriest weapon out of the whole game!), a War blade (an upgrade to your talon, great for spiders), a Proximity fragmentation mine layer, Sun fire pods, a Tranquilizer gun (can be upgraded to use electricity), and a Mag 50.
            Stages  in Turok 2 seeds of evil are indefinitely incredible! Not like the first, you'll be running around shooting bad guys in marsh pits, towns, underground caves, alien hideouts and many more! With the 4 MB upgrade, (WHICH MUST BE USED AT ALL COSTS!) you'll actually feel like you're in these magnificent drawn worlds! I like the stages so much that when I finish killing every single enemy around me in one stage, I always take a minute to look at the stunning environment.
            Turok 2 enemies have been highly upgraded. Their looks and intelligence will totally open your eyes! If you shot at an enemy and miss, that enemy will run to the place it thinks the shot came from! Cool huh! Do you remember what happens when you shoot an enemy in Turok or any other first person shooter? The enemy doesn't even flinch in pain! Now in Turok 2, they do depending on where you shoot! For example, when you shot an enemy in the head, it dies instantly! By the way, aiming is done easily thanks to Turok 2's innovated sniper mode available when using a tek bow and plasma rifle.
            The death match option is a great addition to Turok 2. Now you can fight against up to four human players instead against the CPU. In this  mode and only this mode, a new weapon is available to use, the assault gun. There are different ways to duke it out in death match, one of which is my favorite..."monkey mode". Here, one player is a monkey and the other player is just normal. The player, who's the monkey, tries to find a "transformer platform" to change back to normal while avoiding getting killed by the other opponent. If successful, the player who was normal will eventually turn to a monkey changing roles(the hunter is now the hunted!).
            With all the additions Acclaim has put in Turok 2, it's no wonder why people call it the best first person shooter ever! Add this game to your collection!
