Billed as the first PS2 survival horror title, Extermination is very much a product of the early PS2 era.
Somewhat fitting that Tokuro Fujiwara, director of Sweet Home and a producer of the first Resident Evil, was the executive producer of Extermination. While those were groundbreaking titles, Extermination is pretty ho-hum. Extermination has its moments, but the execution of its mechanics is lacking.

If you're looking for horror titles taking place in Antarctica, The Thing and Code Veronica are far better choices than Extermination. Still, Extermination does serve as a fascinating relic of the early days of the PlayStation 2. That transitional period between the 5th to 6th generation of consoles. When best practices of 3D gaming were still emerging. One that took some time for developers to discover the ins and outs of the Playstation 2.

This is still one of my favorite ps2 games but seeing it critiqued like this from an outside view yeah it's fair to say it had a good amount of problems. The dialogue pacing is a lot more noticeable now that you put it out there like that. I still love the game for what it was. Good review - Thanks for covering it

@FumblsTheSniper 6 месяцев назад

I used to play Obscure 2 and think the characters were cool. It’s almost embarrassing.

@Zelix678 6 месяцев назад

Fun fact; Extermination EU localisation was very different from North America. 1. Dialogue was different. 2. Character design was different. 3. Many voice actors were changed. 4. Subtitles were missing entirely. 5. Difficulty was increased, especially for NG+ And lastly, the ending credits theme was changed and is a lot more fitting. If you search RU-vid for Extermination PAL/EU walk-through or OST, you can listen to the VASTLY superior ending credits theme.

Another thing, at the end of the PS2 version Cindy asks what happened to Sonia. I can't help thinking that it implied an ongoing cycle of guilt and resentment.

What's super funny is that my pediatric dentist used to have an arcade section for children featuring a cabinet with a PS2 in it and some other caveman 2 player side scrolling game. What I remember the most was the PS2 cabinet and the demo it had for this game which was super awesome! Really brought back the nostalgia!

Fun fact: The character on the back of Gary's head can mean "wicked" or "bad omen". I imagine it's the equivalent of getting "badass" tattooed on your bicep.

Gary's head mark 凶, (evil, bad luck) is probably kind of like having a tattoo of the number 13. Him surviving on sheer luck is probably his joke.

@NikoChristianWallenberg Месяц назад

The most interesting thing about that song in the credits - they didn't just hire some random guy from the street to make it - it was actually made by an R&B and funk artist named W. Thad Bourland, who was somewhat well known in the 1970s with his group, "The 9th Creation" (you can find a lot of their songs on RU-vid): I have no idea why the developers contacted this particular artist to record an original song for the game's credits (this is the only game credit W. Thad Bourland has), but there you have it.

@vonVince Месяц назад

The song gradually quiets down and music that's more typical to the game starts playing - I'm guessing that there's a longer version of the song in the game files?

You can make fun of the ending credits song choice but they were ahead of the times. Now it's the chic thing for horror movies to hard cut to an upbeat 50s song when the credits start rolling.

@Poisonjam7 6 месяцев назад

I’m sure someone already posted this, but that “x” on the back of Gary’s head is a kanji character: 凶. It has several meanings, but by itself it can mean either evil or bad luck. However, when used with 器, it can mean lethal weapon, which I think is what Gary was going for. 😆

Why is the aspect ratio, so f*ed up? Normally with old games, the game runs at 4:3, but videos get stretched to 16:9 making everything bloated. Yet here it's the reverse the game seems to run at 16:9, but the video is in 4:3 so everything is squashed.

@greenhowie 7 месяцев назад

There's a weird similar jankiness to early PS2 third person action games. This, Project Eden, The Thing and Run Like Hell all have kind of the same gamefeel with awkward exploration and awkward puzzles interrupted by awkward combat. You can see how the formula became games like Mass Effect but they were clearly still working a lot of stuff out.

@steelbear2063 6 месяцев назад

I'm not sure if this is simply jank or just a product of its time. Even 7th gen games from ongoing series' don't control and behave like their modern counterparts. Of course it's not true for everything, but even the REmake, while also having tank controls and fixed camera, is way more smooth with the movement than the 5th gen RE games. Hell sometimes even games of the same generation and few years apart can have that. I played Dead Space trilogy back to back a while ago and the first game is so sluggish in comparison to 2 and 3, yet I never had any issue with it while playing it in 2008

@retroid9926 7 месяцев назад

Huge bias since I've speedran Extermination but the amount of platforming and movement options you get from a survival horror game this old is great. Too bad all of it is extremely jank.

Has been awhile but i always enjoyed playing this, despite it being abit rough. And the "americanization" of the NA version with making everyone more gruff and rewriting dialogue to sound more blockbuster movie-ish is too funny. I preferred the PAL VA, theyre not as "good" but abit more genuine/natural in a way.

@onceyougozach2607 7 месяцев назад

This game is decent but it has easily the worst final boss of any game I've ever played. Three phases that are all horrible and get progressively worse
