No one remembers SHOGO (1998) 

"And by ancient of course I mean late 90s to early 2000s" Millenials: AHH MY BACK!

I'm glad this appeared in my recommendations! You're doing great

This video was 100% more entertaining than a ton of the larger channels. I hope you blow up dude, you are genuinely funny and insightful lol

I was blessed to play this masterpiece on its release year. We need a remastered version for sure.

One of the first pc games I ever played. It was incredible. I choose not to replay it to keep that memory pristine. The video was a massive nostalgia bomb though.

First decent recommendation that RU-vid has made in a while! Great vid.

i have very fond memories of playing Shogo as a kid. please do more videos, don't dissapear into the vast sea of obscurity, thrive and be weird

Absorbing this video, like I absorb yummy food into my tummy

wow the algo really pulled through with this one. Great video!

Glad this got recommended. Keep it up, man

this video rocks. if you dont have a good hundred thousand subscribers before the end of the year Ill cry

Ah yes, a new arc has began. Please more outdated interesting games! I've been craving animes like Evangelion and classic Gundam, this dropped at an appropriate time. Also: first.

I literally streamed this on Twitch approximately 2yrs ago. And some people questioned if this was an indie project. Nope!

I didn't care for this game at first but my kiddo loved it. I think it is one of the first games I ever saw him really enjoy. You remind me of GrimBeard, another reviewer here in YT.

I had no idea this was a fps, I thought it was a jrpg this whole time

I actually did play this back in the day one a Pentium III (1.1 GZ/128mb ram as I recall) computer. There are actually two endings, with a branching point a few levels from the end. Mecha controls are just fast first person controls, but hey that fits an anime mech more than Battletech movement does. Also the Easter-egg hunt for other anime references can be fun. The odd combat difficulty seems to come down to random critical hits. Shots to the head do extra damage(and occasionally get the enemy to drop med-kits. Unfortunately, this is not a player-only convenience. Given the spread of NPC shots (especially shot guns) and most weapons being bullet-hose full automatic, the chance of getting hit in the head accidentally is quite high. This means the player can die probably quicker than the designers intended.

As a 38 year old that's had McDonald's quite a bit through their life. The regular hamburger hasn't changed that much from the 90's. Still looks sad and pathetic as always. Great review, more people talking about Shogo is always good.

great editing, i am also trying to get better at editing and making videos so its great to see someone else trying too

Oh hi, as some bad news for ya! Being an old man playing this back first came you may wonder if there is a modern version of this game, much like with the WONDERFUL No One Live Forever, if it was Published by Fox Interactive then the game would be in "Rights Hell" which Nightdive cant do a modern port. That said it is funny that much of the anime and the OVA of that Era, SHOGO ended in "right hell" along with them, the exact some why can't get GunsmithCats "legally"....

Shogo is a game I enjoy but definitely flawed. Shogo and Blood 2 basically got screwed by the publisher demanding Blood 2 even though Monolith wanted to make Shogo, so both games were made at the same time and it shows. Shame Shogo 2 never was a thing despite Monolith teasing it several times.

cool pfp

This But an hour long please

I do occasionally, but then I forget about it just as fast. Unfortunately it's not a very competently made game. LithTech until 2.0 was kind of a mess.

i think two things killed this game. the ugly character faces and the critical hit system which is bullshit and just kills you randomly

wrap os is amiga

I'm guessing that you hate anime.
