Turok – Awakening The Giants Part Two

3:40AM Mike Fahey | Touchstone and Propaganda games continue their very well-produced behind-the-scenes video series Awakening the Giants: The Making of Turok with part two, which explores the concept stages of the game. Witness early test concepts of the game, the creation of the concept art, and the work that went into giving the game a compelling storyline with deep characters rather than a series of checkpoints and firefights. Still trying to place the narrator’s voice. Right now it kind of reminds me of Victor Lucas of Electric Playground and G4 fame, though I might be completely wrong. I’ll be sure to find out before the next installment hits. You can check out part one of the series here. More »

Turok Devs Re-Consider Fragicide Achievement

9:30PM Luke Plunkett | Your crying, wailing and gnashing of teeth (especially the gnashing) has gotten to Turok developers Propaganda Games.

As a result, they’ve got a patch ready, and should these so-called “achievement whores” start ruining everyone’s fun, the patch will deployed without a moment’s hesitation.
