With the Shrek Xbox game a lot of the characters and enemies were designed by Todd Mcfarlane, the creator of Spawn so it probably explains why everything looks so weird. It also adds to the idea that the game was supposed to be something else before it got turned into Shrek
I know it’s weird to say… but the classic Xbox is probably my favorite console. It had so many unique games that felt home on it. Strangers Wrath, Armed and Dangerous, Fable, Kung Fu Chaos, Brute Force, Voodoo Vince, Jet Set Radio Future, Morrowind, Psychonauts, etc. It had such a unique personality that I personally feel was lost in the 360 and future consoles. Yes, that is 100% the nostalgia talking but it’s totally true to my brain. Edit: if you have PC-VR, you need to play the VRChat JetSetRadio Future world. Same graphics and gameplay… but in VR first person. It easily could be mistaken for an official release. It’s a dream come true.
I never experienced the original Xbox when it was new, but now that I actually know about games like Raze's Hell that were unique to the platform, I genuinely see what you mean by its unique personality; original Xbox exclusives tended to have this surreal edge that's hard to explain.
@@kingzay4957 I did enjoy it, sadly whenever I try to introduce people to it, they just assume it's a smash clone .-. smash didn't invent the brawler but ok

I didn't expect to see you playing with toys and i didn't expect to enjoy that moment as much as i did. Brought me back to when i used to play with toys. One of my favorite videos of you and glad to see you back.
Marc Ecko's Getting Up was developed by The Collective. The combat was so good because they made the Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Indiana Jones & the Emperor's Tomb games. They also did the Star Wars Episode III game.
Seeing your videos with 30k views makes me so happy! I remember when they used to say 500 views. You're the best retro channel on TH-cam and I'm happy it's finally being recognized!
Junko, in the relatively short time I've been subbed to you, I've been incredibly impressed with how quickly your video quality has increased. I wanted to say something to you after seeing these army men segments. Keep it up and the success will keep coming ❤️
My only issue with Jet Set Radio is the game always looked soooooo dark, everything is pretty and colourful but when they finished making it they just put the brightness on lowest 😅🤣
I can always count on Junko to remind me of games I full completed as a kid and then completely forgot about for 16+ years until i watch the videos. Weird feeling, love it keep it up!
The bit with the Army Men was straight out of OG X-Play, which is fitting because I remember that game from their review. That the soldiers sound like Little Nicky helps.
It's telling that a console back then could feature two graffiti-based games at the start and end of its life cycle...and both of them were quality titles. Nowadays most major publishers wouldn't touch such a concept with a ten-foot pole. It's a level of passion and risk-taking that you just don't see anymore in a mainstream gaming scene run by greedy, out of touch businessmen who are only concerned with safe investments, quarterly earnings and nickel-and-diming customers to death.
Two things I remember about Black: the trailer was ridiculously badass, and I don't remember what level it was but I shot a rocket at a refinery-sized gas tank and it blew up. My little kid mind was absolutely blown at that moment.
This is a goated idea for a show easily one of my fave recent creators, unique yet nostalgic work here LOVE U ITCHING THEM WEIRD PARTS OF MY BRAIN JUNKOOO
There are 3 different versions of Humpty Dumpty in the Shrek Universe. 1. Xbox Game version 2. Shrek Superslam version 3. Puss in Boots version Reminds me of how SpongeBob has 2 different versions of King Neptune
Man... I miss being a kid and playing OG xbox live. Crimson skies was my favorite. I remember when I got my Xbox for Christmas. It was the best Christmas ever.
That army men bit was the best god damn acting I've ever witnessed. Distinctions all around soldiers! But seriously your work is phenomenal, only came across your stuff recently and already a huge fan, even got my partner watching your stuff! Just goes to show you dont need a million dollar budget to have bundles of creativity and fun ideas!
11:50 if that doesn't scream early '00's, I don't know what does. People say the '90s and '00s were indistinct, but early '00s for me totally has a vibe to it. '90s, too.
I LOVED Getting Up! Its fascinating how polished and deep the combat system is for a game where it’s not meant to be the focus. Really love the approach to graffiti. Great licensed music and original score from RJD2
Always a blast seeing Junko back with another vid, I’ll always remember playing Tony Hawk’s Underground, Halo and Vice City on the OG Xbox when I was a kid on vacation. It was fun when all the consoles felt unique and different from each other rather than having ports of the same game across each one
thank you for shouting out halo custom edition. I spent years of my life on those servers and no one else i talk to has ever heard of it. I could go on for hours about what my favorite maps were and stories about people in that games community. real ones remember that xfire was the original discord
I did'nt play on the original Xbox (i was a PS2 Gamecube and Arcade guy), but these games really showed how diverse the 6th gen of video gaming used to be. I really enjoyed this video alongside the PSP one, simply amazing :)
@@Spewa-em8cm I was more refering to the 3d games and not the 2/2.5d games, I have seen the new one and looks true to form as the first couple and new n tasty
I remember as a kid the countless hours I put into Halo 1 and 2, Timesplitters 2, Mechassault 1 & 2, Voodoo Vince, Unreal Championship, Metal Arms Glitch in the System, Godzilla Save the Earth, and Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis Sure the PS2 and GameCube had more recognizable titles but the Xbox had some underrated bangers on it. I'd love to play Mechassault multiplayer again
Well apparently ratatouille on Xbox shouldn’t exist. The only reason it didn’t get cancelled was because GameStop/Eb games payed for it to be a store exclusive
I don't think Microsoft has ever been able to replicate the tone and aesthetic of the original Xbox and how it stood out from their company as a whole.
This is gonna be one of those TH-cam channels where people will brag about being here before 50k subs. How Junko doesn't have way mores subs and views is beyond me, hilarious videos with fantastic production quality.
THANK YOU for giving Ratatouille the shoutout it deserves, I don't see anyone talk about that game other than "Did you know this was the last game for the XBOX?". But it's so good, one of my all time favorites. Although I have heard that the PS3/XBOX360 version of the game, which is a completely different game than the Pc/Ps2/Gc/Xbox version, is not that great and might be a big reason why alot of people assume that the other version is bad aswell.
I do not own a PS5 btw, someone just let me use their box lol.
Thank you all for your patience between uploads! Two months was not my intention, I'll be posting an update later today!
PS5 is worth
Glad to see you upload

Stuff looks similiar to tge early shrek test footage too which give a weird interesting look
The game was also made by the studio that would become EA DICE.
That is insanely awesome lmao
Fun fact: Shrekbox was the first commercially released game with deferred shading. This goofy Barely-even-Shrek game actually is a technical milestone
That's funny because 2 years later, Todd Mcfarland was associated with Xbox again thanks to Spawn being an Xbox Exclusive character in Soul Calibur 2
the UI of the OG Xbox was futuristic as hell... still feels like it was made in 2091 than 2001
That's a good point I haven't thought about before. I love the sleek and easy to navigate UI of my PS4 but Original Xbox still looks more futuristic.
The alien chatter in the background is a nice touch too.
@@oddjob914 and that alien ass sound effect when you scroll through your saved memory for games and stuff
God i love retro-futurism, y2k in particular is such a peak aesthetic
While the series consoles are just backgrounds with box symbols. How imaginative...
Ratatouille getting an og xbox port is... wild
I never owned an XBOX but my cousin did. I thank him greatly for letting me play the demo for Jet Set Radio Future over and over again.
This channel is a hidden gem! All of your skits are really funny and I can tell that you had fun making them.
I swear, the editing and animations are so hilarious. Keep it up!
This editing was top notch 😂 I enjoyed that army men & old Mac Donald segment way more than you intended 😂😂 great job
Blinx at the end 😂
I loved Richard Nixon as the leader lol

No mentioning of Xbox is complete without Halo.
I'd add Halo, Halo 2, Mace Griffin's Bounty Hunter, Max Payne and Red Faction 2.
JSRF is fantastic. boggles me it never got ported unlike its predecessor
Kung Fu chaos was so good
@@kingzay4957 I did enjoy it, sadly whenever I try to introduce people to it, they just assume it's a smash clone .-. smash didn't invent the brawler but ok

Where has this channel been all my life? I get some real classic Xplay vibes from this video. Keep up the great work
Xplay before AND after the original presentation and presenter change
This channel is great for sure. Sincerely entertaining presentation.
That army man skit was pure gold!

the army men scene lmao
appreciate the content dude

These Launch vs Last videos are hands down my favorite on your channel.
My wife walked in the room when you were doing the army men bit....she thinks I'm crazy lol
Ok the Richard Nixon voice on the green army General got me.
Keep up the great work Junko, everytime I shoot a trash can in a video game I think of you
That army men sequence was hilarious. You always produce amazing heartfelt content.
The ratatoullie game is one of my favorite licensed games from that era, i grew up with it on PS2 though

The army men sketch in the middle of the video was peak entertainment.

I remember when I got my Xbox for Christmas. It was the best Christmas ever.
Man. You’ve just sent me down memory lane. I remember owning this exact set of green and beige military guys. Time flies…
That balling animation when you were fighting that dude was so smooth for no reason
I was having a bad day, then I got a notification from TH-cam that Junko posted. Now it's a good day. Thank you Junko.

i never knew i could watch this exactly on its 1 year anniversary

People say the '90s and '00s were indistinct, but early '00s for me totally has a vibe to it. '90s, too.
yes I still have an original xbox
& original xbox was released shortly after "attacks of september 11"
I LOVED Getting Up! Its fascinating how polished and deep the combat system is for a game where it’s not meant to be the focus. Really love the approach to graffiti. Great licensed music and original score from RJD2
I’m glad you decided to continue this
I'm pretty sure Ratatouille's Xbox port was actually cancelled right before release but GameStop/EB Games took it as an exclusive

Your voice over scenes are great! thumbs up video! its really entertaining!
I would love to hear someone talk more about army men. Army men sarge's heroes is such a underrated gem.
Shrek's lighting looks fucking amazing for 2001.
I was about to sleep but this is wayyy better, thanks for your continued efforts great job
I love your delivery and editing. Subbed.
I loved the Army Men segments! Now we just need to see you do the rest of the games like Sarge's War, and Green Rogue.
There's like a couple dozen of them lol
That shrek game scared the crap outta me as a kid, took some real courage to start playing it 😂😂
thank you for shouting out halo custom edition. I spent years of my life on those servers and no one else i talk to has ever heard of it.
I could go on for hours about what my favorite maps were and stories about people in that games community. real ones remember that xfire was the original discord
Love the army men bit lol
Can't wait for the PS2 Launch and Last video.
Fun Fact about the Shrek game: The characters were designed by The creator of Spawn and Venom,
Todd McFarlane
Appreciate the Toledo OH representation in this video 😎
I did'nt play on the original Xbox (i was a PS2 Gamecube and Arcade guy), but these games really showed how diverse the 6th gen of video gaming used to be.
I really enjoyed this video alongside the PSP one, simply amazing :)
I genuinely enjoyed this way more than I expected
Yes! Been waiting for an upload. Seriously one of my favorite channels I discovered this year. Keep it up!
Your army men segment was the best part of this video for me lol good work
I remember playing munches oddesy and stranger wrath as a kid, wish there was more games but that studio is long gone
They aren't gone actually, they just released a new game last year.
@@Spewa-em8cm I was more refering to the 3d games and not the 2/2.5d games, I have seen the new one and looks true to form as the first couple and new n tasty
"Silent Swamp-Ass Strangler" is a selection of words I never expected to hear, but boy am I sure glad I did. 🤣
Just before army men, that soundtrack is from the outfit. That game is my childhood what a absolute amazing game.
You forgot the fact Shrek was made by Battlefield creator, DICE, before they were bought out by EA
I remember as a kid the countless hours I put into Halo 1 and 2, Timesplitters 2, Mechassault 1 & 2, Voodoo Vince, Unreal Championship, Metal Arms Glitch in the System, Godzilla Save the Earth, and Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis
Sure the PS2 and GameCube had more recognizable titles but the Xbox had some underrated bangers on it. I'd love to play Mechassault multiplayer again
Well apparently ratatouille on Xbox shouldn’t exist. The only reason it didn’t get cancelled was because GameStop/Eb games payed for it to be a store exclusive
Great console to cover for this. Looking forward to it.
you never fail to impress me with your creativity. great video!
14 minutes in and I subscribed. Great video so far. The OG Xbox was the first console I bought myself so I have a soft spot for it
idk how you dont have millions of subs
I have a soft spot for Shrekbox too, though I’ve only ever played its GameCube port Shrek: Extra Large.
Awesome editing, production, and polish. I'm thankful the youtube overlords recommended this.
"This is the part where I run away" - Best Shrek impression of all time.
The army men scene was a work of art
you legit are my favorite youtuber, I legit get so pleasantly surprised with every new upload! Good work man
Never a miss with you Junko. Awesome video
What an era i miss it
I don't think Microsoft has ever been able to replicate the tone and aesthetic of the original Xbox and how it stood out from their company as a whole.
6th generation platformers seemed to always be creepy. Actually, a lot of games of its time have a weird feeling to them.
Already rewatching this banger. Amazing work.
You deserve to be so much bigger junko
This is gonna be one of those TH-cam channels where people will brag about being here before 50k subs.
How Junko doesn't have way mores subs and views is beyond me, hilarious videos with fantastic production quality.
Yeah
I freaking love you Mr. Junko ❤
Thanks a lot for this video. Really helpful for those who didn't know about those games.
Ratatouille was not at all on my radar, but that's definitely going on the ol' xbox now. Great video, real entertaining, easy sub. Keep'em coming!
THANK YOU for giving Ratatouille the shoutout it deserves, I don't see anyone talk about that game other than "Did you know this was the last game for the XBOX?".

My girlfriend let me hold the iPad to watch the new Junko video
Another absolute BANGER of a video! This channel is beautiful 🥲
No, not the blue waffle... I just got that picture out of my head in the last few years. Damn you Junko...
Well you can’t just bring up blinx and not give us a review or retrospective. I need this!
Yoooooo! It's Weird Yung Junkovich, with a feature length vid! Need to grab some snacks for this one!
Your best video yet. Can tell you put a lot of hard work into it! Hope you get even more views and subs soon!
the amount of effort you put into every video is insane man
I very much enjoyed listening to this while playing my Xbox!
The Original XBOX is my favorite Xbox console of all time.
Unironically loved the army men skit 😭so creative and the voices on point lmao so awesome
The headset army men bit had me in stitches
