Realtime polygonal characters contrasted with predrawn backgrounds. Sound familiar? This game does have quite a few similarities to RE1: This was a landmark adventure game with a paranormal horror theme where you could choose one of two characters (Edward Carnby or Emily Hartwood) who attempt to crack the mystery of a mansion filled with zombies, zombie dogs, and other unusual monstrosities. They quickly cut away from the game to flash a title card saying, “ Cinematech Promotes Illiteracy”, set to that “You can count on us” song again.ġ6:44: A montage of clips from the original Alone in the Dark game for the PC. įinally, I did play this game on a demo disc, and yeah, it was pretty forgettable.ġ5:54: Another brief, insane clip featuring a text adventure that I am unable to recognize due to the size of the font and an overall lack of familiarity with the genre. A website later considered the game #11 on its list of the 11 most racist video games. I remember Electronic Gaming Monthly ribbing this game a bit for its stereotypical characters in a sidebar titled, “Leady to Lace?” which was kind of socially conscious of them, at least. This may be a bit of a cheat on the kart racing theme because this game is about flying airplanes instead of driving karts around. He found it quite average, and undeserving of the one out of 10 it got from the Official PlayStation Magazine UK.įinally, Midway's 2003 multiplatform game Freaky Flyers ends this death march. And wouldn't you know it, Caddicarus reviewed it years after its initial release. In Europe however, the game was known as 3, 2, 1, Smurf! and got some horrible ratings. Next up, Smurf Racer! Yes, the exclamation point is a part of the title. In North America, the game was published by Atlus. Unlike the usual Bomberman games, this was not developed by series creator Hudson. In this game, Bombermen race atop of assorted cute animals. It has a very cute anime intro, at least. Next, Bomberman Fantasy Racing (1998), a cutesy PS1 kart racing spinoff of the multiplayer-focused Bomberman series. Next comes Furious Karting (Xbox, 2003), which has teams of kart racers going up against one another. This game apparently has on-foot racing as well as kart racing. This came out years after the Antz movie and had “Extreme” in the title-this game couldn't have repelled gamers more if each copy came with a personalized rant from Jack Thompson. Next up, from the “Why?” category of licensed games, Antz Extreme Racing (2002, PS2/Xbox/PC/Game Boy Advance, Empire). Surprisingly, MDR falls under The Wiki Rule. It just doesn't seem like gamers really like the idea of racing on-foot very much. 
Someone else tried a similar idea with Running Wild on the PS1 a few years before, and MDR similarly sank without a trace. Anyway, the game itself is an on-foot racing game with weird little mascot characters. See what I mean? Either CT intentionally tampered with the cutscene, or the game YouTube Pooped itself.
