PC Longplay [315] MDK

[@yucekaracagil]

The most unique game of the entire game history. Even though it was a comedy game, I felt terrified playing this back then. The atmosphere and music was very intense and I there was a serious message underneat the goofy characters and gameplay. It has its own unique presence and charisma.

[@eppsislike]

True, in Arena 3 (Laguna Beach mine crawler) I always shittes myself, especially because of that tank and those suicide alien running to you. I was scarred af.

[@casualcadaver]

This is prob one of the scariest , non scary games ever made.

[@WyomingSkysAboveMe]

Most unique game definitely goes to Katamari Damacy.

[@AetherealGirl]

This game terrified me too as a child, glad I'm not the only one lol.

[@AmarBouchareb-vm6js]

​@@WyomingSkysAboveMebruh that game made no sense what's unique about it?

[@LionmaneElsie08]

It's so strange. I haven't played this in 10 + years, but it's like I played it yesterday. loved this game! thanks for playing it and posting it! 👍

[@MrMachela]

That's the first game of my collection.

[@davidereverberi5279]

It was the first game i had for my first computer (a Compaq with a Pentium 200 MMX), i love this game so much!!!

[@kejiri3593]

Played it briefly as a kid. But still have good memories of it! Great game

[@boilerhousegarage]

Hey bebeh! 😎

[@charlieduffney138]

Kurt is like the master chief of shiny entertainment.

[@AtrociousNightmare]

This is INCREDIBLE. My mind is blown by the originality and artistic choices of this title. Absolutely otherworldly and fun as hell. I remember playing this when I was a kid, I didn't get far in the game, but I still remember it very clearly and I enjoyed it so much. I don't remember seeing anything like this ever before. And do we want to talk about that ending?! DO WE?! What an amazing game.

[@bitoku29]

I was thinking exactly the same 😬

[@TheWs235]

When I watch this video, it's 1998, I'm eight years old again, and all is right with the world.

[@Syphonfllter]

Yes.. Amazing feeling.

[@myfirstnamemylastname1395]

Same here brother.

[@guimov1984]

at that time you went to a store to buy the game. no dlc, no XP to get, no trophies and no online. pure game to enjoy

[@Kranon]

guillaume tbk ~19 years have passed since i first played this and still i don't get it

[@ChronicKPOP]

no online? I downloaded the warez version back then.

[@GameplayComCoisas]

No microtransactions...

[@jjrj8568]

late '90s and early '00s: unadultered golden age of gaming I'd also like to add: at that time gameplay was the most important thing for the developers, HD graphics and ultra-realism not that important

[@TiwazGoudsnor]

Ok grandpa

[@lelxrv]

Art direction still blows my mind. Whoever you are, I applaud you, sir.

[@alisek4441]

You can read on wikipedia. Those guys

[@TheRedflash777]

This game was far ahead of its time. I have played it on IBM 486, and it completely had not any slowdowns or else. The graphics, the soundtrack, everything was sooo much ahead of anything else those years. Truly a masterpiece.

[@aaadj2744]

This game is horribly underrated imo. 90s pc game era was the place for digging any hidden gems on PC, specifically DOS game. This is my first TPP shooter game I ever play by the way

[@Giacomo_Leopardi]

Waaay ahead of its time. I m sure youngsters would love it even today. It's timeless, it's just... unique

[@awsghanem9681]

My favorite game ever, miss those nice days ! greetings from Syria

[@maxfps]

One of the best games ever made, still better than a a lot of current games

[@asic_]

Anyone else got goosebumps when the 3DFX logo kicked in?!

[@kv51m7]

ASiC memories instantly hit me, wish I could go back lol

[@Giacomo_Leopardi]

I miss my crappy Voodoo Rush :(

[@FernieCanto]

When I first played this, way back in 98 or so, I declared this was the best game ever. Playing it again now, on Steam, however, I must say... this may *still* be the best game ever. I'm hard pressed to name a game that is as immersive and engaging as MDK, and that feels grandiose and weird at the same time. The level designs are absurd, with some unprecedented visual effects for its day (just look at the reflective surfaces on 26:33 -- that stuff is insane), and the gameplay keeps drawing you in. I agree this game *needs* a sequel or reboot, but that does not sacrifice the flavour and mood of the original just to appease the execs.

[@IgorWelkenbach]

+Fernie Canto Does it run on Win10 or other 64 bit systems?

[@FernieCanto]

The Steam version works fine for me, and it seems the GOG version works too. The only thing I needed to do was download a patch for the Steam version, which fixes the textures and other issues. It can be downloaded from the forum, in the community page.

[@IgorWelkenbach]

+Fernie Canto Seems a lot of Steam users are complaining about incompatibility, glitches and control issues (no free look mouse). I will check out how much its worth in GoG. What about MDK 2 HD, is it good?

[@AsparagusVideo]

This was gaming at its finest. Screw modern day games that aren't even games anymore. This game didn't have to hold your hand and treat you like you were in a tour. This is a video game.

[@Quenlin]

+mark84j You have horrible taste in games if that's what you think.

[@anon-kc1bk]

+Rian Quenlin He is right though.

[@Quenlin]

***** If you consider DMC4, Alien Isolation, Ori, Etrian Odyssey, Smash Bros Melee, and Professor Layton to be horrible taste" I highly recommend you camp on the beach at low tide.

[@AsparagusVideo]

I officially quit commenting on videos.

[@edgepixel8467]

I've played MDK 2 and loved it, but this one looks like crap, really.

[@mrmosty5167]

Man what a great game. It had the perfect combination of dark atmosphere and comedic elements. Plus other things you don’t see like the sniper shells loading into the chamber and bullet-cam. A remaster would be nice.

[@arthuralves7913]

2019, And I can't thank you enough for this gameplay, the best game of my life, and I thank you for remembering me this game.

[@draconusfrigidus]

The surreal nature of this game made me want to replay it over and over again. And now I'm sad I can't play it on any of my current consoles or PC. So many memories.

[@TheSeriousStone]

Aint no problems on Win7 for me. I bought it on GoG

[@FeelingShred]

For every game Dosbox isn't able to help, there's DxWnd (wrapper for early directx/directdraw versions in modern machines, suports processor slowdown, scaled window to big screen, framerate limit (three different methods) and many more features. Fully compatible with Linux/Wine too.

[@Tricosis]

Steam

[@youtubing7922]

I talked to chatGPT, oh gpt , tell me what is the name of that masterpiece game. And it found it for me. I finally found it. This game was dark mysterious and stunning in every aspect. The soundtrack , the gameplay , the graphics , all in all. Unforgettable

[@DanielSilva-ei7kd]

They should make a remake of this game. Still in 2016 it looks so awsome. I was a kid when I played this on Windows 98, btw MDK 2 is also good.

[@dobiem1]

The only ways these days is to run old games these days is either an emulator or install this on a virtual machine. Completed MDK and loved it. Never played MDK2. They seem very similar, just with alternative graphics or is that just me?

[@briansmith2739]

@dobiem1 MDK 2 is superior to the original in many ways. You can play as Max and Dr. Hawkins, unlike the first game where you only play as a single character. The graphics was a head of its time when it came out in 2000.

[@SirYodaJedi]

dobiem1 Actually, most releases of MDK run natively on Windows, including the GOG release.

[@THEREALGAMEMASTER-gz5xg]

will you idiots stop spamming such a such game should needs a remake or remastered not every game needs a remake or remastered

[@enzi_official]

There is something about the FoV, speed and art style that makes it exhilerating to watch. Can't believe how good this game still holds up.

[@francescozacca9898]

Another masterpiece Is sacrifice..... From the same developers

[@theashlum]

So many memories! When I was 7-8 years old I'd sit and watch my dad play this. He was really good at this game!

[@lunarsix1981]

If you’ve ever played this game you’re my best friend.

[@BigBangBlitz]

This game still looks stunning.. A real testament to the genius designs Shiny was capable of. I wonder if Playmates ever truly understood what a good deal they had.

[@kv51m7]

This was the hardest ps1 game I’ve ever played and would love to experience this game again, when I heard the soundtracks of the gameplay, it literally felt like I was back in my childhood but then realised I’m in 2018 ffs, miss this soo much please reboot this

[@chrishauser1188]

Anyone else thinks the sound when you collect the apple is so satisfying?

[@rahbeat9785]

33:45 is where shift got serious .... this game was so hard . scary ! fun ! amazing ! one of the best games ever made . childhood tears to my eyes

[@jorgemirandahidalgo3191]

MDK atmosphere turned me crazy. My favourite game ever...

[@JoeyCalisthenics]

have u ever play mdk 2

[@gyromurphy]

This game had the coolest institution manual

[@tommyjones1978]

Nice game!!!! When i played this for the first time i was amazed by the graphics!!! Thanks for posting!

[@Cnsedy]

This game... Man... So good memories... So good times...

[@perico2355]

This game came with a manual, and thas why I could turn over this marvelous game in that time. My father helped with the manual's interpretation.

[@1StIwY1]

This game was stunning, i had the demo. Ambientations, musics, and was one of the first total 3D game.

[@cchen8658]

thank you , one of the best memory in my life

[@Zoza15]

This game was my all favourite classics when i was a kid :)

[@hkoizumi3134]

I remember playing this on the PC back in 97... Also along with Jedi Knight multiplayer and the original TFC online. Those were the hay day of Multiplayer games!

[@MKhrome]

That section at 25:25 is exactly why MDK is so brilliant. I keep replaying the entire game just for that.

[@Highretrogamelord]

I love the game, especially the sometimes abstract level design. The snowboard level is the one I remember the most. I like MDK more than MDK 2. I wonder, am I the only one? :D

[@waffledude111111]

also, at the first level, i broke the game a bit. It's possible to go through the hallway of robots without the alert bot, by sniping them all at the door and a lot of sidestepping. I was able to come out of it without using the world's most interesting bomb and sniping them all, a bug happened there where the door will not open for you to leave. I kind of broke the game there lol

[@NickdeVera]

I remember getting to that ending with cheatcodes. Good times. The World's Most Interesting Bomb is still amazingly unique and funny.

[@nicholasdiaz9424]

World's smallest nuclear explosion! 😆

[@Dragon_W0LF]

MDK 21 years later & still better gameplay & graphics than COD WWII

[@RaymondKarlVeasey75]

Great Game, Great Soundtrack, & The Ribbon Parachute Is Awesome!

[@joekinney5375]

omg i miss this game so much!!! it was my favorite

[@DJMelStyle]

Joe Kinney now for free on gog.com

[@TMFlesh]

I'd forgotten about this game, so long ago, so many memories.

[@Zoza15]

Indeed, i almost shed a tear tho :P

[@Firecrow86]

+TMFlesh How could you forget about this game?!?!?!

[@Kevin-vp9pp]

I still have my original game, and I played it all the way up to win xp 64. I should dig it up and see if it still works

[@Anrica73]

I used to love this game. What a great walk down memory lane.

[@josesalgado5288]

Awesome game played this game back in 2000

[@Fuzzba11]

Love this game! Fav parts: world's most interesting bomb, that parachute, 6 legged pilot dog, skydiving from orbit onto city-sized tanks...great memories!

[@nickd6295]

I loved this game. I want to play it again.

[@shan_doo3214]

Forgot how epic the music is.

[@pho3nixinflight]

We used to play this before before first period when I was in 6th grade back in 97’.

[@DyslexicGamer]

I remember this game I played it years ago back in the late 90s. I never got that far, I got to the part on the second level with the pendulum thing. But I still remember the first level fondly I think I'm going to Wikipedia this game now. But as I watched the whole thing I realize it's not that great but what do you expect it's an old game. And that ending with the crazy music video I thought it was in German that first but I think it's in French. Man games were way more laid back back then. You've got to miss the old days when things weren't so serious and more about being fun.

[@Firecrow86]

+DyslexicGamer You're right! Games nowadays are all about getting trophies and achievements. Take GTA for example. Man, it feels like a full time job! Instead of charging us for purchasing the game, Rockstar should send us a f***ing paycheck!

[@FeelingShred]

You gotta play the levels to "feel" them. Watching it's just not the same.

[@markbrko]

This was my second game on PlayStation after Crash Bandicoot. I remember always playing this when I was so young and having no idea what I was doing haha

[@NejiOO]

Watching this just reminded me of the good times in elementary school when the computer teacher would let us have free time a bit after school , and a place to go to in the summer . Thanks teach 💜

[@Redonick]

This great game brings back some memories.

[@baboom007]

Epic game. The music, the gameplay, the atmosphere. Fuck the games today

[@johnarmstrong3782]

fantastic. thanks for uploading. remember it so well

[@FilipeDias1504]

Back in 1999, here in Brazil I was 11yo and didn't have the money to buy this game, so I played the demo version over and over and over... Good old times

[@Cold0rder]

old = gold nothing like old games especially the #MDK

[@JohnWayne99999a]

Perhaps not many know this, but at 11:10 you could have taken out that white thing by hitting it with a single shot while in "sniper mode" :) Great video btw, I remember playing this when I was a child and it's still my most favorite videogame ever..sweet memories

[@JohnWayne99999a]

oh and if you jump to the other side of the cliff at 12:50 (it takes some practice but it's not too hard) you can find one of those power-ups that restore your health to 150%.

[@O.M-]

Gion Uein nice :)

[@DP-hy4vh]

I got this game when I bought my first iMac. Still have the CD it came on.

[@enzolanz84]

thank u!! I loved this game

[@defiraphi]

One of my Top 10 favourite games of all times . The game and story is really interesting , the characters are funny as hell . The graphics ahead of it's time . The 100% pure gameplay . Many hours, weeks, months of fun ( something i can't find anymore in these last 15 years in the video games world ) . It's an instant classic and the 3DFX logo woooow!! such great memories . I still have the original game in a big box with the CD-Rom and a booklet from the devs . It was a limited version . MDK2 was shit they have lost the real fun and cartoonish idea from the first one . ( Same happened with another game Shadowman the first one was excellent and the second one was completely a failure ) .

[@carlh429]

Loved this game

[@ProDigit80]

Pentium 133Mhz with MMX gave 100% on the internal benchmark. I remember playing it on my 486 DX4 100Mhz, and P3 90Mhz! Anything beyond a P4 gave max benchmark results for windows.

[@pierredouglas434]

Quando foi lançado, esse jogo tinha efeitos incríveis... quando joguei a primeira vez, a impressão que eu tive é que o seu criador tinha embarcado em uma viagem espacial, foi para outros planetas e quando voltou à Terra criou o jogo... Melhor jogo da minha vida... ETERNAMENTE MDK 1..

[@thiagofarias6231]

Realmente meu amigo. Quando joguei pela primeira vez no win 95, MDK era um jogo que a gente dizia "uau!!" de tão bonito, perfeito e envolvente que era. Os belos gráficos que combinavam ambientes escuros com ambientes alegres e descontraídos, davam um charme e combinavam de forma perfeita ao game. Sem falar a trilha sonora das fases que era simplesmente fantástica. MDK é eterno!!

[@CYON4D]

That 3dfx logo alone makes this video worthwhile.

[@elmirmerouane629]

So much nostalgie ...me and my brother in the summer vacation get up early to play the game ..i remember we didn't know how to save our progress eveey day we restart from the beginning 😅....when getting to stage two it feelt like a great achievement....definitely the best game ever

[@waffledude111111]

i loved the OH NO's at the robot submarine tossing out the grenades

[@GozieZilla]

MDK FOR THE PC! I HAD THIS GAME ON WINDOWS 98 OLD MEMORIES THANK YOU MAN!

[@IvanLeTerribleGames]

This game looks awesome!

[@gonzalomarsilli5741]

will never forget when I saw this in a game convention along with Pandemonium. that day I knew PC gaming was going to be the best

[@nicklangmusic]

Still one of my favorite games ever.

[@handsomebrick]

Something weird happened to me with that boss who releases dogs at you, the one you're supposed to beat by sniping those four lights on his window. I panicked the last time I fought him and threw a bunch of grenades at his window, and he died. The explosion must have hit all the lights at once, killing him instantly.

[@lukevankleef4245]

''Dummy Decoy'' you know, as opposed to a real decoy.

[@Harfista]

I had 11 years old while playing demo of this game on PC... I remebered it as hard... Good Old days :))

[@anissmail1137]

I have tear in my eye when I ses this...I want to cry...MDK is my first 3D game on PC...I played it 100% in 1998😢😢😢 what game...still one of my best game ever with Indiana jones the fate of atlantis...❤❤❤

[@AJ-77]

The MDK runs amazing without a graphic acelerator card. Was a masterpiece of the optimization

[@Flip111000]

one of the best game ever, really epic

[@TrevorStyles-z3h]

I can't believe how well this holds up.

[@SupraRy]

Whoaaaa Nostalgia overload with this game... I Remember playing this on my neighbors Original IMac... hahaha crazy shit.

[@boilerhousegarage]

The first level boss "driver" of the Minecrawler is in some big tower so he can drive the huge vehicle across the Earth's terrain. That makes sense. All the other drivers are in small rooms, not actually driving the Minecrawlers.

[@TomHinkley]

Those enemies that charge at you in a trail of fire, screaming, used to give me sooooo much anxiety as a kid haha.

[@RainScythe]

i love this game so much!!!

[@Zontar82]

what a great game,it rocked anything that was out on that period

[@MajinSR]

Played this on PSX as a kid, reminds me so much of Earthworm Jim!

[@ZeroboroS]

Nostalgic as hell, I played this with my friend when we were 12

[@omnirhythm]

Textbook example of "ahead of it's time". Just imagine if they had today's graphics chops to fully show us their vision. Actually, it's pretty hard to imagine because no one even imagined smth like this and they did.

[@XtaticVideo]

good game with great gameplay

[@fergoka]

This game was waay ahead of it's time...

[@RagemanRM]

i never see so talanted maded level design! //bravo//

[@alanfarhadi3190]

Strange feeling, I played this game before 20 years but I feel I played it yesterday.

[@eduardosena8755]

Que saudade de MDK...

[@rungrankibagami9510]

É 2.... Pena que pararam no 2

[@bluefiresharp-gamedevelope588]

Ei! um brasileiro que gosta de mdk :D estou fazendo uma continuação dele. dá uma olhada no meu canal (y)

[@jayive34]

I used to watch my dad play this game. He sucked hard.

[@guimov1984]

fred perry is a genius

[@dezm101]

an awesome overlooked gem

[@broadbandtogod]

WOW I have waited for this one, thx!!!!!!

[@FutureAbe]

This is one of the most fucking soul crushing and terrifying games in history..

[@densegames7185]

This was the first game where I remember seeing the possibility to cause visible bullet holes or other wounds on a 3D character (the last boss). What's surprising is how rare that's been still up to this date. For example the Doom from this year (2019) has that as one of the new features, whereas it predecessor, the Doom from 2016 didn't have that! :D

[@SelbenCoirlo]

MDK actually stands for Max, Doctor, and Kurt, the 3 main characters

[@dukkemonterier3429]

Never had an actual, official definition actually.

[@osfloca3]

[@Fabio-21-21]

Nossa, meu jogo de infância! Nostalgia pura!

[@picklerick5475]

MDK Netflix, make it happen. Or not!
