Shrek 2 The Game Is Certainly... Something

[@psycane8462]

"Medi-Ogre" I see what you did there! Honestly, of all the video game tie-ins I had as a kid, I'm surprised I never had this one. But you know what, maybe that was for the best.

[@DuoStuff]

Depends on the others you had. Depending on their quality, the trade might've been worth it. XD (Also thank you for noticing the pun. =D)

Deputy Shrek, at your service.

[@DuoStuff]

Odd deputy considering he immediately decimates an entire civilization of rats. XD

[@PramkLuna]

"Constantly medi-ogre" I see you Duo..

[@DuoStuff]

I like it when people notice the pun since it was a little understated. XD

[@theblankking1966]

Man, this was one of my favorite childhood games. I mean granted all my childhood games were licensed games so there probably wasn't a lot of competition, but I could probably rehearse about 70% of the game from pure memory. I'd personally consider it an underated classic that barely anyone online gives a fair chance due to Shrek being a meme... Though... That could also just be the nostalgia goggles talking.

[@DuoStuff]

I mean revisiting it could give you a different perspective. I also used to feel this way about it before replaying it for this video.

[@theblankking1966]

@@DuoStuff True it's been a solid length of time since I last played it, I do know only a few years ago I played the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone PS2 game only a year or two ago and that did NOT age as well as I hoped. However I do earnestly consider this a great kids game a lot of people have dismissed way too quickly for it just being a Shrek game (I mean also there's totally some broken character mechanics but this still). Also I did really like your video regardless, I'm just giving my personal take as someone who religiously played it as a kid to the point of finding some of the leprechaun shops without a guide.

[@DuoStuff]

@@theblankking1966 I mean to be fair I wouldn't even call it bad myself, just kind of mediocre. But eh, in the end it really doesn't matter. Regardless I'm glad you enjoyed the video regardless. =D

[@gabbo7101]

The beginning of the video sounded like buildup for a bad shrek 2 creepypasta

[@DuoStuff]

You know what it kind of does. XD

[@gabbo7101]

you should discuss creepy pastas like Candle Cove, where you could see something like that actually happening. I always thought the best horror stories are the ones where your not 100% sure if they are fake or not. I always felt like stories that introduce blatantly supernatural elements werent too great. I hate how so many creepypastas seem so cool and interesting, then twords the end everyone's eyes are bleeding and the auther goes insane. Also, change your pfp or channel banner to tails doll with a gun.

[@NearSmash]

This game is genuinely good. Loved it when I was growing up

[@DuoStuff]

I also enjoyed it growing up, but I feel like it's not quite as good as I remember. XD

[@zpbstudios9551]

1:22 the developers of this game were Luxoflux, who developed the Vilgante 8 and True Crime games. It's fascinating how a developer of a GTA clone also developed a Shrek game.

[@DuoStuff]

Huh... What an oddly specific set of games to develop. XD

[@zpbstudios9551]

@@DuoStuff IKR? Their last game was a Transformers game of all things!

[@thedudeofhoodies500]

I had this game as a kid, and I still have it. Hero time segments were pretty cool, to be honest. Of all the things in this game, my favorite is probably the treasure collecting game at Far Far Away. And also that you can fight the wandering knights around Far Far Away!

[@averylobato6593]

Oh my god! I totally remember playing this on my game cube as a kid. Beat the game at least 20 times and still never got tired of it.

[@DuoStuff]

Wow 20 times?!? That's a whole lot dude! XD

[@skrrrrrrrrt]

the shrek 2 game will be our demise. you have only made doomsday approach quicker.

[@DuoStuff]

Or perhaps Shrek 2 will save us instead. It remains to be seen what fate will be chosen. ;)

[@TerranceNicholsonVoiceActor]

My cousin owned this game and we played it a little when we were kids. The only reason we didn't play it a lot was because the game would freeze/crash whenever we got past the second level. Most I remember from it was that the ginger bread man could throw peppermints that would distract the enemies, which I would throw in the traps that were supposed to grab the players and use them to trap the enemies.

[@DuoStuff]

Honestly that really sucks. I wouldn't have been too thrilled if I bought a game that basically didn't work.

[@damiengraves2452]

this unlocked extremely vague memories of playing this at my cousins house

[@DuoStuff]

Did you enjoy it?

[@damiengraves2452]

I actually really did, I think I only ever played Puss In Boots though haha

[@DuoStuff]

I was like that with Puss in Boots and Gingerbread Man.

[@frostycane5134]

Yes I had it as a kid. I defiantly loved it it was really fun as a kid

[@DuoStuff]

I also recall really enjoying it when I was a kid.

[@LilacMonarch]

Ah yes I also love things with defiance

[@therealdevcat]

I've done that big bad wolf hero time so much I can do it perfectly.

[@DuoStuff]

I used to be good at it through memorization, but this time it was clear just how poorly designed it is.

[@Anthony-qx9od]

Kinda late, but I loved this game as a kid. I played it everyday with my older sister and we beat it so many times. It’s a game that gives me fond memories

[@dearsirdearyou4153]

[@DuoStuff]

Dude I had so much trouble with the Puss In Boots fight when I was a kid, and it was so weird how easy it was to me now. XD

[@dearsirdearyou4153]

yeah

[@jaxikunai1987]

I actually have this game and have almost beaten the game but haven't beaten the final boss fight and I honestly enjoyed this game a lot growing up even though it is TERRIBLE. Even with all of it's flaws, I love how crazy unethical it all was. It made me and my brothers (we played multiplayer cause why not) laugh a lot and have fun. I know this will get buried in a bunch of comments but I still like this game even with all of its flaws.

[@noxtempus9002]

Not only did I own this game as a kid, I do remember parts of it very clearly and was excited to see a video on it.

[@DuoStuff]

Well I hope you enjoyed the video regardless of how... Uh... Unenthused with the game I was during it. XD

[@williamrodabaugh4315]

I've never owned this game, but I have a friend who often practices for a WR run with it. So, it comes into my life when I feel like watching him stream some days lmao.

[@georgewashingtonmayo]

I use to play this when I was a kid as well. I would even say lines from the game from time to time.

[@bluesquid7900]

little red rideing hood was in shrek 2

[@zpbstudios9551]

1:46 She WAS in Shrek 2, but she was blond and wore a hood.

[@DuoStuff]

I guess, but what I meant is that she isn't exactly a plot relevant character. XD

[@jonnyrussell9806]

My friend bought me this game for $3.99 at a pawn shop, and it's probably the best deal I've ever witnessed. Sure, the Hero Time segments gave me motion sickness and the player icons still keep me up at night, but playing multiplayer in the sea of muddy textures is oddly beautiful! Due to the movement options and overpowered attacks, multiplayer Shrek 2 for the Gamecube is on par with the Lego Games. Singleplayer is lacklustre, but the hectic multiplayer really shines. I'm also surprised you didn't mention the GBA version, which is bloody awful. Give it a playthrough sometime.

[@TheM-qo8zs]

The one dislike is from Prince Charming

[@zytreak]

man i loved this game when i was younger and played this on my ps2

[@skyvenger7724]

I used to play this game with my cousin when we were around 5-6 and when we bought a PS2 I'm pretty sure it was the first game I bought xD But I never got that far (I remember getting up to red ridding hood, but I don't think I got far enough to see her leave the team ahah) Also the game was in english and I only spoke french at the time, so maybe that's why I wasn'T able to finish it (like most single player games at the time for me ahah)

[@Bigcat_Johnson]

This game was a childhood favorite of mine

[@bionicle9336]

[@k.poe.edwards_836]

No wonder they wanted to go "far far away"

I remember this game! It wasn't bad from what I remember, but it might just be nostalgia or something.

[@DuoStuff]

I mean it certainly isn't bad per se, but I wouldn't call it good either. I did enjoy it when I was a kid though.

[@Anthony-qx9od]

yk what I don’t appreciate the disrespect to this game. This is genuinely one of my favorite games of all time

[@vulpinedeity3379]

Did anyone ever find all the magic beans? I never did. I could only ever find a few in each level, and now I don't even have the game any more.

I would say this is a good game for your kid to just shut up and play something. It’s not the greatest game, but as a kid you don’t really care about quality
