Boasting high-resolution graphics, Turok 2 looked absolutely sensational. The AVI clips shown around the net cannot begin to convey the sheer graphical glory of the game. The high-resolution screen modes allow a clarity of visuals which is usually lacking in console games. It's fair to say that at times Turok 2 looked more like a high-end PC title than an N64 game. Not only are the graphics in high-res, but they're also very detailed and very smooth.
Background objects, such as animated fountains, cause no slow down in the action and look brilliant.
As you explore the detailed landscapes, you'll soon find yourself coming across realistic fires which are superbly animated and lit. There's also quite a bit of water with some excellent transparency effects. Again, there's no slow-down when a lot of detail is on the screen, so a dino can jump out at you without effecting the pace of the game at all. Basically, Iguana have developed one of the most impressive 3D engines currently in use in any title on the N64. The ECTS demo version of Turok 2 allowed players access to all the weapons that will feature in the final game.
