Hey every one! Thanks for hanging out with me over on twitch. I'm going to be streaming Future Perfect up next so if you want to see that then give a follow! www.twitch.tv/jarek4gamingdragon
*God I'd love a TimeSplitters Remastered for all systems with updated controls and graphics* I played these games for years and years and I miss them so much.
the control are actually still great on the OG xbox, especially if you can find one of those old gamestop controllers with the black and white bumpers. I also have something called an Mcable, its an HDMI cable with a chip in it that adds anti-aliasing without any input lag. Helps smooth out all those jaggies.
Multiplayer and map creation was awesome. The playable characters were awesome. When we were kids we used to build unfair forts and mow down the CPUs 😂
I'm 20 but i was lucky that in early 2000's i was able to get my hands on the game and yeah the aiming was horrible but the game was great. I had it on my ps2.
@@LeFaucheur that happened to me the first time I got that far... I was like... Wtf... What do I do now? Did I miss something? There are no prompts!!! *Cries*
@@rei_cirith I think it's when there is an enemy left and the scientist is scared, but the 10s you have left and the panic ensuing doesn't really help in figuring out what is happening.
That's as far as my run through hard difficulty went :( If anything, Jarek understated how hard this game was, even though he mentioned it a million times. Even on normal difficulty Robot Factory took me days to complete. I never managed to unlock the last 2 characters out of the 126 in the game. Maybe I should have played less 4 player Anaconda haha.
It’s mad how when I was a kid I used to play the hell out of this, and was pretty good when I was literally only 6/7 years old.. I tried to go back to it, and struggled soo much with the aiming. Never remembered it being hard as a kid.
That's cause back then we only had that type of controls to master, so we adjusted to it and learned how to use it fluidly. Now we have updated and smoother controls for games so going back to it is jarring cause we have adjusted to the new controls of newer games. This is true for almost every generation of console controls.
Felt the same way last night after playing it for the first time since I was like 5 or 6. It was a hard transition most definitely, and then playing future perfect they made the large change to what controls we use today
Our pea sized 7 year old brains were just more resilient to stress, we probably put in 60 hours into a 7 hour campaign but it felt smooth because we were having fun and knew no better. Now we know it takes 7 hours and we have to judge ourselves on how pathetic our skills have become 😂😅
My friends mother bought him timsplitters 1 when it came out, we both tought it would be dumb............ 1000s upon 1000s of hours playing each game in the franchise and that stroke of good luck that his mother who knew nothing about games happened to pick up that game of all games, I'm glad we were wrong
Also born in '91. I discovered the Timesplitters series through playing Timesplitters 2 at a friend's house across the street. We played it fanatically. Co-oping, making maps and playing many custom multiplayer games. What a gem of a series. I'll always cherish it and the memories I have of playing it back then in the early to mid 2000s
Man, same! Born in 1990 and when this came out all 5 of my friends and I who lived in the same neighborhood would go our friends how’s a do Multiplayer on that Chinese Map Virus mode and we’d all play as monkeys and I miss the gingerbread man. Hilarious multiplayer times
It's no exaggeration that this game is backed to the absolute brim with amazing content. I too put an unhealthy amount of time into the multi-player mode and Virus and Flame tag were some of my favorite game modes. Ah, the time I spent playing with friends is a memory I will always treasure. And those moments and memories are already enough to be super thankful for and I remembered the incredible map maker that even let you make story missions with custom events and enemy behaviors!? All of this and I bought the game in sale back then for $20 It's no joke, the game was worth 5x that to me. Ah, this game will forever live in my heart. ❤️
Ayyo 2 years old and couldn't stand more true . I may be young compared to most growing up with these games but I was poor and all these games turok etc made my child good and who I am as a gamer hands down my favorite game of all time bloodrayne2 nier and miniority report were also up there 😎
Xbox now has backwards compatibility for Timesplitters 2 and Timesplitters: Future Perfect for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. Each game can even be bought digitally for $9.99 in the marketplace. They're back.
You know there is a remaster for this game that's basically an easter egg in HOME FRONT : REVOLUTION the one thing i have to say about it is the irony that an all time classic is remastered inside of a horrible game WOW
"Men in Grey" was this for me. I don't know if "rage quitting" was a term back in 2002 but I was certainly doing that. Took me well over 50 attempts to beat it.
Welp, I feel old as shit watching this, thought you were older. And reading the comments and realizing I'm 15+ years older than your base makes it even worse 😅
walk it off. happens all the time. no big deal. I constantly see people who were born after I got out of high school be like "for my 18th birthday I watched that really old movie transformers. anyone remember that?" haha, just walk it off. gonna keep happening, no big.
@@westingtyler1 nah I get it. It's just weird realizing that I'm starting to get to that age where I'm the old guy in our subculture. I grew up with Atari and NES / Sega and SNES, but everyone my age grew up with them, so it's just jarring to see the majority of comments referencing growing up with PS2, Xbox, and GC. It's that weird generational feeling we all go through. I'll rub some dirt on it and try to get through it 😆
@@bigred22685 i feel the same way, and im turning 28 next month. Its crazy when i hear folks say they grew up with the ps2. Hell. I hear some folks saying they grew up playing the xbox 360 when it came out in 2005. Now let that sink in....
Who would have thought that 2019 would look less like NeoTokyo and more like the break-all-the-glass-in-Notre-Dame challenge? (Never got past Planet X on Hard: later found a strategy guide in, of all places, UK women's magazine "Bella", which literally stopped at the same point in Planet X I reached)
strategy for planet X is pretty much finding good camping spots and letting them come. I think it was one of the easiest levels, especially after the mephistopheles battle where you get slaughtered by undead priests.
I’ve played games in the 80’s, 90’s, early 2000’s up to today and yes the early 2000’s stand out as the best in my opinion. The Dreamcast, GameCube, Xbox and PS2 error was the best in gaming history, the originality and all the new IPs in this error stands above all. The GameCube and Dreamcast were the last two true gaming machines ever made. Timespliiter 2 was awesome, I remember the game I got it on the GameCube. Best memory was the cathedral when you walked up that long stair case and saw the stained glass windows, amazing memory and awesome camera work.
For me it was the N64 PlayStation 1 mixed with the PS2 game cube in Xbox Dreamcast era the reason why I include in 64 and Playstation One is because of a lot of the platforming games were some of the most memorable childhood memories but the N64 was on memory and what the game could hold so experiencing the GameCube was a nice boost and a good transition from platforming and simple FPS games 2 an upgrade like the GameCube
Great review. I absolutely loved this game as a kid, played it forever on my cube. The difficulty was absolutely brutal, maddeningly so. I cannot remember how long it took me to beat the campaign. The challenges were such fun (but that fight against the handy people can rot in hell) - and that virus mode, bloody hell. Me and my friends had such fun playing that mode. It was absolutely awesome. Definitely one of the games that shaped my young life.
I loved this game. But man I could never beat the Neo-Tokyo level. Always kept getting spotted. Loved the multiplayer as well. Lost many hours playing that I always think of games like Timesplitters and Resident Evil 4 and how if they came out now the majority of the content would be dlc and it makes me sad Can't wait to hear your views on Future Perfect
What I appreciated about this game so much was that you could play multiplayer by yourself. Bros were getting older and had better stuff to do like go clubbing or banging chicks than to hang out with their younger bro so being able to play multiplayer alone was dope.
This was one of the first shooters I ever played. My parents were strict about which games I could play, so I'll never forget sneaking to my friends house and playing Timesplitters 😁
Man when you showed that aiming improvement in the beginning with the sniper I did a double take. I was like "crosshairs in the center of the screen?!" 😲
this game was so fantastic I still talk about it now to the younger guys that have no idea what they missed, re-bought a PS2 and the game just to play it again!
I always liked the feeling of "wtf do I do" feeling games from this era had. Then once you've beaten it on easy you can't imagine it any harder, but it is. Then your throwing a ps2 controller as it rips out of the console and whips you in the shin, furthering the frustration. That's how games should be.
13:55 Actually, Robot Factory is the ONLY level in the entire game that has a health pick up, but it's like almost nothing. It's on the back of the little floor robot That'in the hallway with the rail robots and where you get the Electrotool, but the health can only be picked up if you sneak behind it while avoiding detection. There was another level that can let you recover health, but it was triggered by an NPC, and not a health pack, and it was from the Neotokyo level.
@@eminemfan50098 Thats some shit logic right there. The other guy is obviously stating that its a console exclusive and it shouldn't be, not that it should be PC exclusive.
This was my favorite game when I was younger, had such amazing times with it, it's a really good shooter, that doesn't take itself seriously and makes good use of that. Graphic style is superb, still looks really good now.
Xbox now has backwards compatibility for Timesplitters 2 and Timesplitters: Future Perfect for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. Each game can even be bought digitally for $9.99 in the marketplace. They're back.
now imagine being ten and somehow cheesing robot factory and beating the game on hard difficulty and unlocking that last stage site that we never ever got to play growing up
Love this game so much! I was born in 2002 but as a kid I begged for a gamecube and got to play this game and simpsons hit and run on it, seeing all these levels is such a nice trip down memory lane. It's really nice to see you go through the details of the game, thanks for making this video!
Memories of playing this with my two best friends from next door, split screen multiplayer everyday for a long time. I never knew this was from the team who made goldeneye, which probably explains why I loved it so much (also obviously played that game a lot too). Watching this video made me realize how ahead of its time this game was. It still looks great. Man, got all nostalgic. Going to text my friends and ask them if they remember playing this.
It's so funny how much patience we had when we were younger. I dont blame you for using save states for those levels. But it's almost a kick in the dick that you know you've beaten it legitimately before
Born in 92. I have a ton of memories playing this game and the original with friends and family. The PS2 era was a special time. So many experimental games and hidden gems that wouldn’t even see the light of day in this current era.
Goddamn I loved playing as the monkey lol They gave him a RoboCop skin in Future Perfect and a banana would come out of his leg like Robos gun would 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dude I feel you. I was born in 1991 and still considered myself young until I started hanging out with my two 15 year old brother in laws. I've been showing them old games and shows I used to play and watch growing up and they've never heard of them. It's nuts to think about how the experiances we had has kids just don't translate for the newer generations.
Great video, the Timesplitters series is probably my favourite in game history. I can remember my very first time ever playing Timesplitters 2 at a friend's house. Didn't realise the same people made goldeneye and another favourite of mine perfect dark.
I recently tried playing this with controller and HATED the aiming. Learning about the mouse injector is life changing, I actually appreciate you so much for showing that.
Me and my buddy used to have sleep overs where we’d stay up all night eating pizza, drinking coke, talking about girls we had no chance with, and playing THE SHIT out of timesplitters 2 and future perfect. The good old days, before adulthood.
I'm 31. This game was a masterpiece. Clear Goldeneye influence to both the single and multiplayer (shared employees with Rare). I was very young yet still managed to get all the achievements/medals. I'm all for a high skill ceiling.
timesplitters 2/dynasty warriors 4/DBZ budakai tenkaichi 3 were the games that me and my brother's played on our ps2 at the time, I'm actually going to get a ps2 to play the original games just because old games (in my opinion) are better than new games coming out
The final level of behad the undead gave me nightmares as a kid. The red flashing rooms, zombies. Yeah. Good times. Also, the "But Where does the battery go?" Fucked me up so bad! Still, love TimeSplitters 2, the first and third as well. One of my favourite franchises of all time.
the entire game is now available on homefront 2 through an unlock code www.polygon.com/22375774/timesplitters-2-homefront-the-revolution-easter-egg-cheat-code-unlock-how-to
I still think about the mutant cow carcass or whatever it was. That scared me so much the first time as a kid. I really loved these games so much and put so much time into them
If I remember correctly, this game is so old that when I first played it, I was still using the "Legacy" control scheme grandfathered in from Goldeneye and Perfect Dark on the N64. Left stick was move forward/back and turn left/right. Right stick was strafe left/right and look up/down. I used that for a VERY long time, until I started playing FPS games on PC as well, then I got used to the current standard of Left Stick = Move/Strafe, Right Stick = Look. All the music from TS 2 and Future Perfect is great and I found the composer, Graeme Norgate, on Bandcamp selling the OSTs for the games. link - graemenorgate.bandcamp.com/album/timesplitters-2-ost I'm also surprised you didn't mention the level editor. This was the first game I played that had a level editor. It's not as good as the one in Future Perfect, but I remember making some interesting death arenas and filling my memory card up to the absolute limit with crappy attempts at stages.
Just picked this up at the retro game store, I was so stoked on it I bought it game only no case, (Its Time Splitters 2!) came to this video to get hyped. Honestly, games like this are the reason I play almost exclusively older games. They literally just don't make em like they used to. Great upload brother!
THQ Nordic bought the rights to Timesplitters back in 2018 and hired Steve Ellis, one of the original creators of Timesplitters. Fingers crossed something comes of it.
I love Timesplitters! Still got a Factory Sealed Future Perfect in my shelf :D I dont know how often i completed this games. But it was veeeery veeery often :D
Timesplitters 2 is one of my favourite games of all time. Capture the bag at the Ice-Station level (my favourite level) with the EPIC music score, the P90, dual-wielding was SO MUCH FUN! The characters of the Elvis impersonator, GingerBread man, the Duck, Chinese Chef etc - was so much fun. I spent HOURS doing that level.
Not sure if it was this one, or the original that i was really wishing for Multiplayer... but yeah, this was a great IP! I was crazy for online PS2 gaming back then. Socom US Navy Seals, EverQuest Online Adventures, Resident Evil Outbreak, and the early CoD games up to 3, 3 being the best imo. So yeah i wanted this to go online BAD.
I was born in 1989 I'm 30 years old right now and I never knew about time splinters the popular game of the early 2000s for me and many of my friends in the cul-de-sac was oo7 NightFire did had one player classic oo7 story mode and had a solid multiplayer with 4 players with up to 16 Botts I believe. Looking back and judging the two games time splinters had the better package as it had something that very rare games at the time had level creation on the console. I think if time splinters had a bit better following at the time kind of like 007 James Bond which is funny because the people who made time splinters made the original GoldenEye
FUCK ATOM SMASHER! Was playing this game with my sister on Dolphin to relive our youth and FUCK that level is hard! I don't know how I beat that as a child playing by myself.
Oh man, that music from Siberia :'-) takes me back Also my brother and I got used to the aiming system. We were eventually able to use it fluidly while moving.
So apparently the mouse injector tutorial video is completely wrong. The current version of the mouse injector isn't at all compatible with that tutorial video and there are no instructions on how to properly install it. There are no instructions within the mouse injector files themselves, and there are no other videos that run through how to install it. So can anyone tell me how to get the mouse injector working? I can't get it to work with dolphin.
I'm younger than you but.. oh man! The hours I put into this game, my brother and I working through every level, every challenge, playing split screen multiplayer with bots for hours on end... The nostalgia couldn't be stronger.
Back in the day I got really good at the aiming in this game. Do anything enough and you'd be surprised at how good you can get. I don't recommend someone invest the amount of time it takes though, this mechanism is abandoned so learning it won't transfer to anything else.
I LOVED this game when I was younger and still do today. I'd play this with my friends all the time and it was always a welcome fun shift whenever we'd go on a Halo binge (TS2 multiplayer is VERY fast paced lol). I'm very glad you're bringing this to a new audience, because this game with its deep level of detail deserves to be in the great FPS of the past conversation. I will say that it IS very hard (challenge modes especially) and I've never missed being able to ADS so much in my life. It's hard going back. Lol. Quick aside though the Neo Tokyo 2019 part is a DIRECT reference to the move Bladerunner hints the date. Lol. Thanks again for posting. Keep up the great work.
