[@zoltanwilson4277]

Wassup, dude. Hope you been alright. I had it on gamecube and never got passed enchanted forest. I was so young. Lol

[@zoltanwilson4277]

I enjoy your content.

[@maximoperez4751]

I love Dreamworks

[@maximoperez4751]

Dreamworks is better than Disney

[@destronlaserwave9566]

Apprantly this game was developed in 10 months, and is the first ever video game to use deferred shading. For 2001 standards, this game is impressive and was actually one of the games used to get people to buy an Xbox.

[@CrystalOmega]

Yeah, that's exactly what i found out while researching for the video. It even says it was made in 10 months in the xbox manual

[@GroovyLeon]

> "Game was impressive for 2001 standard" > Literally shows the game being dunked on since the day it came out with a 49 on Metacritic

[@jayceneal5273]

the xbox version actually has astonishingly good graphics. the lighting is a very similar method that games like Doom 3, Thief: Deadly Shadows, and Fear used, but even more ahead of its time by utilizing deferred rendering.

[@shnick1990]

A friend of mine went out of his way to 100% the Xbox version. Race Mode made him nearly lose his mind.

[@travisrassel9978]

This game had some of the most impressive textures I have ever seen in a game, for it's time.

[@abstraction6212]

I feel like this game probably took plot points from the The old Chris Farley Shrek from 1998.

[@Banzeken]

3:17 Well, it wasn’t made by the same DICE as this was made by the then new Canadian studio based in London, Ontario and not the Swedish DICE responsible for the Battlefield-franchise.

[@LumbyMcGumby]

Shrek on xbox, my God.. I gave an xbox to my friend 2 years ago for his birthday. He picked this game up, and we popped it in while we were downing a good amount of drinks. This game made me laugh harder than I had in a while. It had me unable to breathe. Shrek's movement is so insane we couldn't handle it SOOOO fast HAHAHHA what a gem

[@zacharyfreet8706]

Get this -- the Extra Large port was planned for the PlayStation 2, but due to Take-Two Interactive buying TDK, the PS2 version was scrapped.

[@V3r0nicle]

"Take thiss... smelly ogre" "Oh, how rude"

[@august2771]

I just love that the game had todd McFarland as the character designer

[@digitizemecapn]

Super interesting video, apparently Shrek was the first console game to feature per-pixel lighting,

[@-null123]

Hey, I also herd somewhere that this game was originally was meant to be an original IP but was made into a shrek game early on.

[@tadpolegaming4510]

That would explain the insane amount of work put into getting the new rendering methods working and the McFarlane designs being thrown in there

[@anameraucana1688]

I'd say something like "This game's mediOGRE" but everybody's said that already. Still, this was a pretty good review!

[@ConnorFerguson23]

Great video I remember playing a Shrek game on Game Boy Advance.

[@nightygamer11x]

Seems like a fun game but afterall I accept every game but are you gonna cover the Madagascar 2 Xbox 360 Game?

[@jpuc5568]

I had the one on ps1 the frame rate holy shit the frame rate

[@FormalGibble]

God help you with Shrek treasure hunt. I have not heard good things about that one. I heard Shrek treasure hunt has a glitch that makes it impossible to finish.

[@Jonen560ti]

I'd love to see some Aardman games. Wallace and Gromit and the Curse of the Were rabbit is such an underrated licensed game. Amazing co-op, great graphics, music that sounds straight from the movie, great worldbuilding. It's such a good licensed game. I only played 2 Shrek games. Shrek 2 GBA which was quite good imo, certainly perfectly serviceable. And then there's Shrek 3 DS. I hate that game. I bought that game thinking it had to be decent cause Shrek 2 GBA was decent. It was so bad that it made me cry, at 12 years old. The touchscreen was used for everything, even walking if I remember right. There was barely any music, it ran poorly. It's my personal most hated game of all time

[@Novelist1029]

I had that Chicken Run game on my ps1 lol

[@neppy-chan9297]

I oddly enjoy this game, at least the Xbox version. It's not great, but it's super goofy and I really like that.

[@speedforcespector]

I wish Trolls had games

[@tadpolegaming4510]

10:28 lol that's the voice of Mad Hatter from the Arkham games

[@speedforcespector]

Please talk about Shrek 4 DS/DSi

[@jacquesmesrine9427]

I had this game on launchday. Together with halo. I didn’t like Shrek. But the graphics of Shrek where amazing at the time

[@Channeleven2345789]

I played the GameCube port. I know it's not very good, and yet, I absolutely loved it.

[@ojdiesel]

It’s so strange that this game got a T rating. Similar to how Tom & Jerry, Incredibles and Smash Bros. Melee got one. I get it that E10+ didn’t exist until 2005, but yeah it’s weird

[@professordrmao6321]

Lol i remembee that game it was fun as a kid but eh st least the graphics held up

[@Zcrub]

If there was a stench for this game it would likely be of weedrat

[@bigfootinhiding8641]

Are you gonna review the shrek treasure hunt for the original playstation?

[@user-cz9ge3rv7o]

I played the game on the GameCube when I was a kid and I didn’t think it was that bad but I was a kid

[@Kenny-ep2nf]

It's still a real fun game.

[@MySaviourKingJesus]

I loved this game so much!

[@dannyw9195]

had this on xbox when I was 6. Didn't get past the first or 2nd world. Went back to it a few years later, still couldn't pass them and I always wondered why. Probably because I'm sure I felt back then that it was bad.

[@sussy-sonic]

Shrek is a pretty good film woth ots likable cast, as for this game (and every other dream works game) I haven't played it, but I can tell its not exactly the most fun game ever based off you and Nathaniel Bandy videos on it, I may still get it anyway, ill be waiting For Shrek 2 when that drops!

[@Chocolatemilkdrinkerhi]

Yooooo, new video

[@user-cz9ge3rv7o]

I find a weird how they only release this game on the GameCube and Xbox because the PS2 was out as was the most successful system in the world and still is so why didn’t they release it on there?

[@After4th]

1:48 to get to the point.

[@OPGardevoir]

Omg I remember my aunt had this game for playstation and the only thing that stuck in my mind was how Shrek ran

[@zacktyler2810]

TBS! Your aunt did NOT have this Shrek game on Playstation. She either had it on XBOX or GameCube! This Shrek game wasn't available for any Playstation console!

[@zacharyfreet8706]

​@@zacktyler2810Well, it WAS going to be on PlayStation 2, but it was cancelled.

[@zacktyler2810]

@@zacharyfreet8706 Yeah, I am aware of that.

[@ronaldocruz4594]

You're either thinking about shrek 2 or shrek the third for ps2 or shrek treasure hunt on ps1 or You're from another dimension where shrek 1 was ported to ps2

[@mauriciominicuci6544]

WTF i forget about you and you upload 2 videos?!! I entered the shrek 2 video first thinking of it was of the frist, even e are nearly 6am (birthday, thats all i will say) i will see them with peace (near that phrase Espe talked to me) whT i was going to say? I dont know

[@mauriciominicuci6544]

Aahhh yeah! Make a video of Ice age 2 the meltdown / el deshileo (no fue error) that i recently saw a video of it (well, like 20)

[@shrekforxbox4095]

I feel so seen

[@Guytoons]

Do Shrek 1 to Megamind and Kung fu pnada 2 game Puss in boots game and madagascar 3 game will not be there

[@MiooshSlayer]

the atmosphere is very creepy hell naw D:::

[@kieffergonzalez1311]

I thought the first Shrek game was pretty decent game.

[@ainsleyharriot6060]

guess you could say it's mediogre

[@MovieEggman]

This game is pretty much a glorified tech demo for the Xbox.

[@omarithegamer2008]

This game was horrible to me

I respect your opinion.
