For those watching this in the future, the saints row reboot did so poorly that volition had to shut down
thats honestly a shame. the first saints row was also extremely mid, a saints row 2 2 might have been just as much of an upgrade the original saints row 2 was :(
@@lesbianmorgoth652 saints row 2 was the best and no 3 isnt the best!
Tfw hope somebody buys the IP and just remakes/remasters the first 2, for a reboot.
But there are gonna be more saints row right?
Except that this one goes far deeper than just a reboot that flopped.
I think to this day that MoH 2010 was the most unique military shooter of the 7th gen. The campaign had a generic boots on the ground story, but what really made it stand out is how compelling and immersive the game is. I replay the campaign every now and then because I find the sound effects, ambiance and levels so unique, it's a game where you really feel the levels have a lot of feedback with you, there's a lot of dirt and dust flying everywhere when there are shootouts or when you throw grenades, and I haven't seen something like that in any other shooters to date. You just don't get the same level of grittiness and in-depth look on mountain warfare in any other game. Multiplayer was kind of weird, I won't deny that, but it was an interesting blend of CoD and Battlefield that was pretty unique too for its time. Never got to play Warfighter, but Danger Close definitely had talent and MoH 2010 was way above average.
My favorite story i always heard about Medal of Honor is if anyone higher up at the US military played that game, the army would have bought 2 million copies to put in bases around the world for the amount of Pride it had for the US Military it would generate at the time
@@SplitScreamOFFICIAL Wasn't it banned on US bases because on the MP you played as the Taliban?
Sadly the newest MOH game was a not great vr game
I don’t really remember the campaign but the multiplayer really clicked with me and was a lot of fun.
@@audiomoddingstation Yes, they only ended the ban when they renamed the terrorists to OpFor, a generic name you hear in literally any game with a terrorist team, such as Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare. It's stupidly obvious, and it gets old really quickly, like think of something creative already, come on.
Imagine having such a cool dad that when you play a game in front of him, he decides to make an award-winning game franchise because "hey that's pretty neat"
Imagine not giving a fuck
I believe the Prey reboot had nothing to do with Prey (2006) because Arkane had initially set out to make their own Scifi horror survival game and then Zenimax stepped in in pretty much told them they were making a Prey reboot.
Yeah, that’s literally what happened.
They were also pretty deep in development too, past the MVP
I think it was even called System Shock 3 at some point
Same
I wish people stop acting as this Prey 2006 is a masterpiece or hidden gem thing, most people remember the original thanks to Don't Fear the Reaper intro, portal gimmick, and Native American protagonist.
Other than that it's your generic Doom 3 linear corridor shooter with a portal gimmick, compare that to Prey 2017 which is a complex Immersive Sims yet people shitting on it for being different and "bland" because they only look at things at surface value.
In my opinion the day after thanksgiving is the busiest shopping day of the year.
Saints Row 2022 is the Ghostbusters 2016 of video games.
W
It was so bad it killed its developer, Volition itself.
@@MikoyanGurevichMiG21 demand dat dey release source code of sr 2 publicly, keep on demandin dat, if someone says oh no a remaster! Say no just release source code
I've been playing it on PlayStation Plus, it's not actually as broken as I'd heard.
Granted, I had to play it on mute and skip every cutscene.
@@AliBazzmodding and remaking sr2 would be so fuckin lovely.
3:10 Medal of Honor did have at least 1 game release after Warfighter. In 2020 they released a Medal of Honor branded WWII VR Shooter. Wasn´t very well recieved though and from what I heard it seemed to have some major flaws.
Their first mistake was to make this game vr exclusive.
Vr is something that only a small percentage of gamer actually use and most of them are content creators paid by vr companies to show their products.
I'm sure that the game wouldn't have been such a failure if they actually made a normal version.
I loved what Warfighter tried to do and I really believe if it didn't release broken it could have been a success. They put so much effort in the whole international operators approach and using actual real life experience to design the game. Still feel it did a better job than the new Modern Warfare games.
Loved the campaign
100% agree with you. Multiplayer was way ahead of its time. If EA didn’t try so hard to kill it we would still be getting games today.
Prey 2017 has no connection to 2006 Prey. It was simply named Prey because of a trademark Arkane had on the name itself. Prey 2 had an announcement trailer in 2010 with leaks out about it being about a hitman in space but it was eventually canceled.
It made me happy you gave the old medal of Honor games the respect they deserved I feel like they are often forgotten I really love them
It's generic copy of COD
@@user-ti6ix5tn2o what the medal of Honor came first
Killer might hold the knife, but it will never win against the truth.
They're lost, but not forgotten
@@user-ti6ix5tn2oSure about that kiddo?
I loved Zombi. Didn't play it on Wii U but on my xbox. It felt pretty creepy, combat felt slow which built up tension, and the location of London was very unique. As an american, I'm sick of zombie games based in America.
I also enjoyed MoH2010. I have some good memories playing the mp with my best friend.
I like Zombi because I think it's one of the most simpler survival horror games, it's hard to try and get into a survival horror game when they get way too complex or way too hard, this one is pretty simple to get into, doesn't feature way too many mechanics and you just have fun surviving.
@@thechugg4372 You worded it perfectly!
There are fans of the Turok franchise that still want to see Turok get another shot of a reboot again. And Nightdive Studio has been doing a tremendous job of keeping Turok alive with the Remasters, with Turok 3 finally getting a Remastered this fall.
So many people think Bethesda would be the perfect choice to Reboot Turok in similar fashion as Doom 2016.
Love to see you expanding your content!
For some reason I remember loving the Turok reboot as a kid. Still makes me sad that games like Turok and Unreal Tournament were left to asphyxiate.
I actually really enjoyed playing Thief… my biggest issues were the story and consequentially, the ending.
Medal of Honor 2010 I actually really liked. The themes and story were pretty good. Even Warfighter was great. I still go back to it every so often.
Sadly the newest MOH game was a not great vr game
They weren't good games. You return to them only out of nostalgia.
@@Brylant1980they were good
Agreed
I got them for a couple bucks at a game store a few years back, I still love playing them both, both underrated games with great missions, one of my favorite missions from warfighter is Old Friends.
2010's Medal of Honour was amazing, it was the sequel which tanked.
Also, MoH: Above and Beyond came out in 2020, it was a VR title.
I also loved the 2008 Turok reboot XD
Most have forgotten about that VR MOH game. It wasn't well received.
Turok 2008 was fun. Bad Turok reboot is that indie game Universal put out based on the original 1950s Turok comics.
It was objectively mid at best when it came out, and being mid in a time where the competition were cod and battlefield in their golden age means = dead franchise
Man cmon Medal of Honor 2010 and moh warfighter was two of my favorite games of the 7th gen consoles
Moh 2010 was a great game, the multiplayer was really fun also
"Where does Saints Row go from here?"
Well, since Earth was destroyed in 4, the 5th entry should've had the Saints conquer a new planet. Imagine that on the PS5/XSX? Sounds awesome to me and a natural progression.
Thing is the reboot is the 6th saints rows games as there was gat out of hell which has a possible ending where you restore the earth iirc
In my opinion ZombiU was great. I don't know how they made it work on Xbox One and PS4 but the idea of using the inventory on the WiiU Pad without having the possibility to pause the game added a lot of tension to the gameplay formula. The slow pace and the setting were also neat, I think that it wasn't a financial success only because it was released on a platform that flopped hard
it works the same way soule games work, it doesnt pause as you are going through your inventory so you have to make sure the room is clear if you need something or sort your inventory so you know where something is imediately if you are in the middle of a fight
MoH2010’s campaign is still one of my all time favorites.
Saints row one hurt me 😭that was my fav game till this bs reboot
The reboot is BS because of “toxically masculine mafias”.
MoH2010 100% lived up to its expectation, it was incredible and unique gaming exprience that was never like call of duty, i can see the BF resemblance since its made my dice tho
2010 medal of honor was a great game especially the multiplayer it was literally just like battlefield
It was like CoD and Battlefield had a baby. Everything good about DICE with smaller set pieces like CoD. I loved it
Nahhh nah medal of honour 2010 was sick for me, i love the multiplayer maps (conquest), the campaign felt realistic. Sniping like 1 mile away where its like a pixel on your screen (or not even visible) and because of the point system if you got a headshot at that super long ranges you’d have a cruise missile in like 2-3 kills where up close with an M4 would be at least 40/50 kills. It was like battlefield rush but with call of duty killstreaks/score streak ( you chose which one you wanted like call in arty or give everyone flank jackets (there were like 8 streaks instead if cods 3 and it was pre set for everyone like cod 4)
For me it was warfighter which was bad and killed the medal of honour series
Hell yeah, sniping on Helmand Valley was the shit.
I love how homefront 2 included a full hd version of timesplitters on it so everyone just bought it just to play timespliters
But that games combat and weapons were good the weapons were fantastic
If there’s anything the Medal of Honor Reboots should be remembered for, it’s the music.
Heroes Aboard, All Rounds Expended and With Honors can emotionally break you. 😢
I'm pretty sure that a lot of people agree that Medal of Honor 2010 is pretty underrated nowadays. The multiplayer was easily a clone of Call of Duty's, but the campaign was so immersive and fun. Also, the E3 trailer of Medal of Honor 2010 wasn't the only time Medal of Honor had a Linkin Park song involved, there's also the end credits of the game, and the end credits of Warfighter, with each featuring a different song by them. In the E3 trailer they licensed and used New Divide (familiar to those who have seen Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen), in the end credits of MoH 2010 it was The Catalyst, and in Warfighter it was Castle of Glass, all three of which are really good songs. And dude forgets about what many consider to be the worst Medal of Honor game in the franchise, Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond, released 3 years ago.
If only the Devs for Saints Row listened to the fans instead of shitting all over them, they could have made a semi-decent game instead of the straight up trash fire that they crapped out.
The original homefront was really fun, the points system was a great thing for multiplayer as it didn't overly punish less skilled gamers as you could build up points throughout all your lives. The points also meant it would start off very call of duty, with all foot soldiers and as the game progressed tanks would come into play and it spiced up the gameplay alot.
Saints row 1-4 is summed up in my mind as F-you i'll do what i want then fire, explosions, screaming and raining money.
Saints row 2022 is summed up as the "how do you do fellow kids" meme then tacking on "waffle makers are so expensive am I right".
I consider the half reboot/not reboot as a soft reboot since it is continuing the continuity while having a change in the formula in some way.
Great video! Very entertaining keep it up. Music is a little too loud at points tho
I still can't believe people really think prey (2017) is a reboot. It had nothing to do with the original and the name was a mandate by bethesda.
DmC Donte: "Never in a million years"
DMC5 Dante: You sure 'bout that?
Its such a shame volition is going out on such a sour note with the series and how we will remember them
Love it when a Rocket Sloth vids comes up in my feed 💪
2010 MOH is one of my all time favorite shooters so idk wtf this guy talking about. The campaign was great, and the multiplayer was made by DICE when they were actually good. It felt like a fast paced Battlefield game.
I feel like STARFOX should go for budget releases, for the on-rails levels, they could easily be used to bolster Nintendo’s online service via leaderboards and downloadable chucks. Either that, or style it like RATCHET & CLANK. Humor, funny weapons and smooth controls. The elements are all there, it just needs retooling.
Further, I know it sounds ridiculous, but I would love more brand-crossover in Nintendo games. Star Fox racing in an F-Zero game, or Captain Falcon showing up in Metroid. The canon is so loose, it can easily work. Just nice little Easter Eggs.
I personally liked “Thief” it felt like a first person assassin creed game lol used all diff types of arrows to kill people and yeah I had fun.
Tho I bought the game for less than $5 sooooo 🤷♂️
Great video man! What is the music during the Medal of Honor segment?
The custom knife-only lobbies in Turok multiplayer were undefeated. 1v1 knife duals were crazy fun
Wait, wait, hold on, Medal of Honor started with STEVEN SPEILBERG?
1:15 Anyone knows what MOH it is ? Moh with gore looks pretty neat, never saw this gameplay before
Yeah I would definitely call halo infinite a bad reboot. I appreciate the callout at the end there😅
After seeing this I would really like to see reboots that were actually good
Prey, Tomb raider, Wolfenstein, Doom 2016, Metroid prime, hitman world of assassination trilogy, Deus ex human Revolution, ninja gaiden 2004 are a few I can think of.
TUROK has such an interesting setting and setup, it really deserves another chance. There’s so much you could do with it. You could do a shooter, a horror setup, or even a hunting game with dinosaurs.
Games barely launch with local co-op anymore, you have plenty of options for online play. Battletoads being a classic game, it had classic co-op.
Y'know Medal of Honor VR exists, so it isn't entirely dead. Now, Saints Blow on the other the other hand...
I disagree regarding MoH 2010, I really enjoyed the game and thought it was a good game. Poured in a decent amount of hours into it.
MOH 2010 was pretty good in my opinion. Warfighter needed more dev time but I also had fun playing it after patches (for some reason I played the MP of Warfighter quite regularaly. It was actually pretty fun.)
I never played the original Homefront, and just happened to get the "sequel" on a good sale, but it has some features I really enjoyed.
While not the best game, I have more than gotten my monies worth. Yes, it suffers from the go here shoot that monotony, but the open world and being able to do things when you want helped to mitigate that. Also, being able to adapt guns on the fly seemed to be a unique and cool game feature that I haven't really experienced in gaming before or since, at least as fully fleshed out in a single player game. Furthermore, I kinda digged the story, it got me to think about it outside of playing the game, and compare it to life, and the state of the world.
I played both quite a bit and I would say both are perfectly fine games, I wouldn't call the sequel a good sequel tho, Fine game but not really a sequel. The on the fly weapon modification was introduced in Crysis btw, But not many games have used that system since I wish more would
I was enjoying Homefront Revolution but got a bug that stops the story in its tracks. I cannot continue no matter what. I don't enjoy the game enough to completely restart lol
There was one more installment to the MOH series and it was medal of honor above and beyond which was a vr title but I’ve got no clue if its part of the series or not.
I actually like Zombi…it’s probably the scariest zombie game. Had no idea it was reboot tho.
Medal of Honor 2010 was the worst MP shooter I've ever played. Laggy, jank movement, horrible maps/spawns, and a cruise missile killstreak loop that guaranteed your team would not only lose, but die many times over to a giant AoE.
Medal of Honor should've gone back to WW2 or even WW1 after the reboot. But they went all in with Warfighter and....well....where's the series now. Granted, I hear EA thought the WW1 idea was dumb but DICE went ahead with it anyway and Battlefield 1 was one of the most successful Battlefield games. So : P on EA.
Sr tops the list imo. That was the worst game I'd ever seen besides Agents of Mayhem
why music so loudddddddd on this one
Woah woah woah, I did NOT just see thief in the thumbnail
Forrel Theif was great
I know you can't do Halo forever but there's a lot of new content to MCC apparently that comes from old betas and stuff. Would love to see you cover it.
The zombie dying sound effect was spot on 🤣🤣
Background song in medal of honour?
It sounds like a remix of Blue Monday by New Order
i'm still pissed about Crackdown 3
I really like Medal of Honor 2010. It definitely felt unnecessary in a pile of modern shooters at the time, but it did feel like it wanted to be a relatively honest take on the Afghanistan conflict. I feel its status as one of the worst reboots ever comes from its follow up Warfighter, which is beyond painful in its linearity.
MoH Warfighter was not my first fps but is probably my favourite fps ever. I remember playing a multiplayer game and being in a lobby with multiple people way higher levels than me and somehow getting on an 11 killstreak to get the chopper gunner and going to town. Was more refreshing than most of the other fps games ive played. Story was decent but the aesthetic was second to none with its minimal ui which games have a fear of these days
I love this channel so much tbh, so underrated
Why is the background music so loud
Man music is too Loud!!!
Medal of Honor (2010) killed my interest in the Medal of Honor Franchise. I never played Warfighter though did hear it was better
It really wasn't. If anything, it played and felt worse; no wonder it killed the franchise.
SR4 wasnt the last from the official series it was gat out of hell and guess where the setting was
Moh 2010 is a great game.
I love ww2 og moh as well and I'm disappointed that ea didn't released another moh game since except for above and beyond but that's exclusive to vr.
Really good video, you should lower the music in the back, sometimes it's hard to understand, after Volition closing don't think we are going to see any saints row anytime soon
I never played the first homefront however I did pick up the second one when it was on sale for like five bucks when I realized that the on the fly weapon conversion/customization mechanic from that game is actually the reason metro exodus had it as that’s where they took the mechanic from.
I think it’s a decent bargain bin open world shooter but it’s not anything special. I wouldn’t pay over 10 bucks for it but I think it’s decent fun if you just want to turn your brain off and play what’s basically urban far cry for a few hours. The guns are pretty cool imo tho.
SR4: *DESTROYS THE EARTH*
SR2020: “oh yeah, when we blew up the earth…..oh wait, we blew up the earth?….how are we alive then?”
They rewinded time I guess?
I loved medal of honor 2010
Me too
I'm genuinely shocked that, not even briefly, did you mention Sonic '06.
I played MOH 2010 before i played any battlefield game and i really enjoyed it, got really into the multiplayer but Warfighter just didn't play very well i thought. I finished it but didn't have the same replay value that first game did for me.
I played the Zombi PS4 port and i actually thought it was alright for a short zombie survival game that was a bit different. Managed to finish the game with the perma death setting now one of my rarest platinums
I can almost hear blue monday playing in the background...
There was a medal of honor VR game that released not long ago, right?
I love how the white castle is in perfect condition at 19:36
I cracked up once he brought up Bomberman cuz I knew exactly where it was going cuz we actually had that game and even as a kid I was like "wtf is this"
Oh god i forgot about theif
"It released on the Commodore 64"
mf that's an Amiga
In regard to the Saints Row reboot, technically everyone saw it coming when God reset the universe at the end of Saints Row: Gat Outta Hell, which in turn brought back Earth.
I'm a DMC appolagist, it was so much fun. An awesome bombastic hack and slash. I admittedly didnt play thr OG 4 games till much later but genuinely they all have a ton of merit
There was a Medal of Honor vr game that came out in 2020
I for some reason remember enjoying the thief reboot, tho I was young and hadn't played the originals. But idk maybe I'll try it out again.
I liked Turok 2008, it was a fun mash up of military FPS with dinosaurs in it. It actually sold enough to green light a sequel that was cancelled thanks to a Tron tie in game flopping. I'd say Turok Evolution was a bad reboot and it caused both its devs and publisher to shut down.
MOH 2010 was a success too. Warfighter killed the franchise unfortunately. But that might be a good thing given how "WW2" games like BFV and CoD Vanguard turned out.
Saints Row Reboot and DMC deserve to be on here, as does 343I Halo games and The Coalition's Gears sequels.
Those last two aren't reboots.
Moh 2010 multiplayer was the best. If you were any good and ever dropped a cruise missile you'd understand.
Absolutely.
Dropping a cruise missile is still the most satisfying kill streak in a video game imo.
Going off the comments I’m shocked that people actualyl like MOH 2010 now. It was mocked to hell and back when it initially released
MOH reboot is 10x better than MW reboot (exept MW19)
The original homefront was pretty cool I played it when I was 12 on my 360
MoH 2010 was a good game, for me anyway. Grew up on MoH since the very first game back on PS1. I quite liked the campaign and the multiplayer (yes it had a playerbase for a good 2-3 years till servers started to be very difficult to find), used to grind the multiplayer as I wasn’t a fan of MW2, still don’t understand why that game still gets hype. Had some really fun times and the game modes was a blast to play. It’s just a shame on how MoH ended from there last game and now it’s like it never existed but 2010 is still a great title to the series.
I recently found a discord that runs MoH 2010 multiplayer, but from what I can tell, it doesn't seem to be super active, which means playing against the same lot of people most of the time. I've been craving the MoH gunplay, but for now it seems its stuck in our memories.
@@CoreyC225 sorry being late, I never noticed this.
That’s amazing tho and exactly why I love players as no matter how old the game is theirs still people willing to stick around no matter the years! Discord amazing for this! I would love to jump back on but I’m a console player, but the game isn’t backwards compatible and have no way of playing it unless I buy a 360.
Funny enough tho only 3 months ago I got to revisit far cry 2 multiplayer as I haven’t played that since 2011 and I was playing it since day release. So happy I found an active discord that had about 40 - 50 players a week, I found myself feeling like a teenager again. Even if I was playing with the same guys and they was across the world (oh the connection) they was very chill people with big laughters, even if it was only for a few hours a day!
Discord is amazing to easily bring players back to old games, it’s one of my favourite things to do! Even Brink (one of the worst multiplayers ever) has a discord but it like 5 people!
Overwatch 2 should be here as well.
It’s not really a reboot it’s just a sequel barley different to the original but still
hey the music in the background is too loud
I grew up playing all the Simcity games and Simcity 4 had the potential to be a much better game than it was but I still played it hard core when it came out, They had an idea where you built each setion of the city instead of one large open map to build your city in, Citizens would travel from one city map to another so you could have people living in one map working in another map and shopping in another map, generate your power on another map, produce food yet on another map and I get that bow you understand why it failed, people where used to building everything in one large map and they made it to confusing to new and old players just to learn how it was ment to be played, I also didnt like how you only had the one district entrance and one main highway you couldnt change didnt help also, There is some enjoyment in Simcity 4 if you disign each area for a specific function, oh, and pollution didnt travel to nabouring districts so feel free to use the smallest district to produce your power and sell it to the nabouring district will save you tons of money
3:15 That is actually wrong. There *was* a new Medal of Honor game released back in 2020. Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond, a VR game, and it was horrible.
DMC 2013 was the perfect example of “We tried to fix what wasn’t broken, and we made it worse.”
I absolutely loved the Metal of Honor reboot, Warfighter however was absolutely horrible. I honestly wish I could go back and play the multiplayer.
3:00 There was a VR title, and it actually went back to WW2.
Really digging the megaranger theme in the beginning of the video🔥🔥
THIEF WAS A REBOOT?!?! I played it back in my Xbox 360 and loved it-
