-Games must be older than 15 years if published/developed by an ESA member, and 10 years if it's by an ESA member subsidiary.

This last rule was made in an agreement with the ESA organization back in 2005 and we respect it up to this day. Therefore the main difference between Turok and Streets of Simcity is that the first is published by Acclaim, who's not an ESA member, while the second was published by Electronic Arts - an ESA member.

I didn't know that, that's actually very interesting.
