Classic Game Room reviews MDK 2 for Dreamcast
Classic Game Room season 1 – 5/20/2000 MDK2 for the Sega Dreamcast. What does MDK stand for? Well, watch the episode and find out. This first person shooter kind of game for the Dreamcast had a unique comic book style like the Watchmen mixed with anime references and science fiction. It was a lot of fun to play and looking back on it was an awesome game. For whatever reason this has not come out on the PS3, Wii or Xbox 360. Classic Game Room was the 1st Classic Video Game review on the Internet for fans, collectors and game nuts. They reviewed Atari, NES, Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Dreamcast and Playstation… too bad they didn’t get to Xbox 360, PS3, PS2 or Wii.
