I had the supreme honor of voicing Shang Tsung in this game ("At last! To be myself again!") as well as in MK: Deception, where I also voiced Shujinko and Onaga! I agree whole-heartedly that this game needs a remaster, immediately! It's so nice to see these decades old games still getting some love! This was a great video and I'm now a subscriber! Cheers!
This is my first time seeing a video from this channel and I have ALWAYS said the best couch co-op games were shaolin monks and the warriors. And this dude managed to talk about both in one video. So glad someone else shares my love for these hidden gems
I just realized something. Ed boon not only could remake shaolin monks, but he could turn it into an entire series that ends in Armageddon, thus turning mortal kombat from the original timeline into an action adventure game series. That would be insanely awesome, and completely possible with current gen consoles.
It would be amazing if they re did a deception type konquest mixed with a SM type fighting along with all the new gaming tech they could add Soo much more like swimming, more detailed environments long with more to do in missions/side missions. Just a lot more they could add.
This game is fun whether you play it single or co-op. I got this back in 2005 when it came out and this was one of my favorite games of that year. Being 17 at the time me and my friends would couch co-op a lot, discovering secrets all over the place. This game is just top notch for the time. Its charm still holds up today. I love MK.
Literally only discovered shaolin monks about a month or so ago, until then I only saw the intro video and heard its name. It's now my favorite piece of MK media out there.
@@IVSAKENSOUL It's a complete different direction from the (IMO) clunky and dated gameplay of their fighting games. It both is a fun beat'em up, and a great alternative way to see the MK world in better detail. I love that it's set in the MK1 and MK2 areas.
YESSS!!!!! Shaolin Monks was actually my introduction to Mortal Kombat. It’s the undisputed GOAT. If we did get a remake or remaster…. I disagree with the God of War style. I think they’d need to take a Ultimate Alliance style and honestly have a 4 player bonus mode. This game is flawless!!!! My roommate literally bought a PS2 and old tv just so we can play it. This video is everything man, great job!!!! If I were in charge of this remake, I’d add a Special Forces (Jax/Sonya), Rivals (Sub-Zero/Scorpion), and Assassins (Kitana/Jade) DLC. And have a 4 player bonus mode
Shaolin Monks really does feel like one of the best MK games. Me and my cousin used to play the hell out of the demo, and rent it from Blockbuster or Hollywood Video (whichever one was around). 4 player mode would be insane tho. That gives me ideas for a MK Smash bros spin off 🤔. Thanks for watching tho.
Great vid man. Just bought it to add to my Ps2 nostalgia collection. So glad it’s still at a reasonable price. I truly think it’s the greatest MK game ever. I will admit I’m biased because the normal 1v1 fighting genre doesn’t resonate as much as it did when I was a kid but even back then I thought Shaolin Monks was an incredible and under the radar achievement. Holds up so well and runs so smooth.
Thanks! Yeah, Shaolin Monks is an amazing game through and through. It's one of the most unique MK games, and one of the best examples of translating a games mechanics into the 3d space
Honestly, most of the games that came out during this era were soooo ahead of their time. Imagine a time where all these games, with the graphics that we have today, JUST dropped. Man, all these games were just so far ahead of their time with the ideas they had for these games. Todays gaming industry is a joke compared to how it was back then
Man, I will never ever forget the countless great times I had with my neighbour who was my best friend man we'd co op this shit all night literally unlocked everything all the characters this game was amazing I fuckin loved it
Me and my little brother played so many couch co-op games on the ps2, but this game was someting special. When we would wake up, we would run our fingers under hot water just to be ale to press the buttons quick enough lol😂
This was my favorite third party game. I had it on the OG Xbox. The game was really fun to just go through random levels. We need another game just like this.
Thank you for this video Mortal Kombat Shaolin monks for me is the best game that ever been made(not just video games) it's so perfect in every way. and I'm sad to say that seeing how WB and NRS behaving i can't see a sequel or remaster happening unless they milk it with all the micro transactions BS. i know it's a long shot and sound pessimistic but unless Medway comes back i can't see another masterpiece like Shaolin monks happening.
I wish they could've made a sequel of MK3 and MK4 story line using this mechnic, this was one of my favorite games. MK II is my favorite and I loved how this followed the story of II, voice acting wasn't all too great but the gameplay, the story, the enemies, secrets and challenges made this game one of my favorites on my shelf.
@@IVSAKENSOUL I just don’t see the game selling hardly at all if they don’t bring it to new hardware completely instead of just glossing it over with new paint. The SpongeBob Rehydrated game was awesome!
@hampdog5716 maybe they have something in the works. Ed Boon has expressed his desire to see a remaster of Shaolin Monks before. They had an agreement to remaster MK1, but changed directions for some reason.
Agreed! Melee based game with 3rd person over the shoulder camera just doesn't fit at all, the camera style belongs to a horror game. Controlling the camera while doing combos is pretty annoying
I got this game a days early funny enough for the original xbox's thank you either eb games or gamestop back when they care and still own the game till this date
love this game. But if this got a reboot it should stick to its DMC style. GOWR just aint it for action games, MK:SM is an action beat em up, not a walking simulator. A new Shaolin Monks would be great rn. wish they bring something like it back
Shaolin Monks and The Warriors were the best Coop games my sister and I've played together. Okay, she did screwed me a lot in MK but in The Warriors there was time when I had to retreat to heal and my little sister were just piling bodies, beating the crap out of hords and destroying boss (except those who had some kind of super armor and she was having her ass beated while I had to use my brain or just throw shit at them.
Love this video but I have to disagree heavy on the remake adopting god of war ragnorok s gameplay, GOWs gameplay while similar on the surface is constrained by how the camera is oriented.GOW s camera is ALWAYS facing (zoomed in) where kratos is looking in combat and when trying to attack in any direction the camera will get wonky. This would not fit shaolin monks multi directional kombat that requires full awareness of the player’s surroundings to be aware of enemies. If anything if they do remake it take notes from either DMC5 and Sifu cuz those games have probably the most refined combat I’ve played in a game
I spent 70 buck ls for this game because its one game from 6th generation ive been fiending to play. I love that generation and bought moded systems with 98% from that generation but mk shaloin monks didnt work, but 70$ disc did and its a blast. Dont know if it was worth the 70 bucks but its awesome for every mk fan.
nah, i have my gripes with GoW 2018 and Ragnarok's combat features. (Rpg shenanigans, camera, lack of a jump button etc) I'd rather they stick to an updated version of the OG Shaolin Monks with elements from SIFU, OG GOW and throw in motor kombat.
still dont understand in the trailer goro had it under control then why shang decided to run away since his minions could have killed the earth realm heroes when goro knocked them down with no problem
I honestly feel like the new ers really needs to Reboot all of the mini games and side games and give the main sotry a break, I would love to see a side story of Kitana and Mileena on Endinia, a Special Forces Game with Jax and Sonya. Reptile home, so many stories we could get a full game out of
redoing Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks in the style of the new God of War games is honestly a terrible idea. I would legit be angry with that. I think its an inferior gameplay style and I would vastly prefer for Shaolin Monks to remain the way it is.
In hindsight, you're right. GOW 3 would've been a better pick. But with the new Invasion mode, it looks like they are trying to blend their mobile game style with their console version. Hopefully, we get a remake or a port at the least.
Dude you talking about games that came out in 2005 but not mentioning KOTOR 2 which granted came out December 4th 2004 but come on it was hot off the press
Nah the angel of god of war doesn’t fit. You’re not thinking of a co op experience. My brother and I lived on shaolin monks growing up. And it has to be a little zoomed out.
Before I even dive in this video lemme just say: I bought this game again 2 years ago and couldn’t even finish it because it’s lowkey so repetitive. You just keep walking forward and getting stoppped to fight. The story is good tho. (I’m saying the game is the furthest thing from flawless)
People might be getting ps5 consoles or waiting for a new console release, I’m getting my self a ps2. More games and better gameplay. Fun is better then looks.
100 percent. I have my ps2 that I had as a kid and I’ve been wanting to go back and play all of these games again. My parents never really cared to get us consoles so my twin and I got a ps2 and then we had that up until the ps4 came out. Making that switch was a massive culture shock. But I decided to go back and buy a ps3 and a bunch of games from that era bc I’m older and have my own money now. And it was so worthwhile. You can get the games dirt cheap and there’s so many games out there. It was awesome to experience all of the games that I never got to play or hear of. It would definitely be worthwhile to get a ps2 and take a trip back to that era of gaming.
good review but hate the remake remaster idea tbh. don’t want the new GoW combat would sooo much rather the old style still like what’s on MK:SM currently. not a big fan of the new GoW combat idk why but it just doesn’t feel quite the same to me.
I'm glad everyone has been vocal about the remaster idea. I'm definitely gonna incorporate that concept into future vids as a section. I think I'd prefer GOW 3 style over gow 2018 tho
It gets a B for me. Needs a better lock on system and move input system. Soumd have copied Ninja Gaiden and Devil May Cry in these areas. The throw system could also be better.

It gets a B for me. Needs a better lock on system and move input system. Soumd have copied Ninja Gaiden and Devil May Cry in these areas. The throw system could also be better.
