MDK2
MDK2 overview
Type: Action
ESRB Rating: Teen
Release Date: 05/31/2000
Developer: BioWare
Publisher: Interplay
MDK2 is a sequel to the popular MDK game and, if you were an MDK fan like we were, you are going to love MDK2. At first, Computer Hope was real doubtful of MDK2 being a great game. We could not possibly think of how this game could have been improved. Luckily, Interplay proved us wrong. With outstanding graphics (requiring more intensive hardware, mainly 3D Acceleration), you will be amazed how Kurt looks when battling his enemies.
Like the predecessor, MDK2 brings back the humor and excitement in fighting the aliens and saving the Universe. However, unlike MDK, you will now be fighting with not only Kurt, but also the 6-legged gun-toting robotic dog, Max, and the genius behind MDK, Dr. Hawkins. However, unlike Kurt, each of the two new playable characters possess their own unique style of play. Max has the capability of wielding up to 4 weapons and can use a jet pack to elevate to higher locations. Dr. Hawkins, however, must use his amazing intelligence to develop and create weapons and work through various situations.
While a great game, MDK (the first edition) could be finished in a matter of hours. Thankfully, Computer Hope loves the fact that MDK2 has improved the difficulty rating when compared to MDK. MDK2 is much more difficult in creature skill, stunts, and the level of thinking that must be performed to beat the game, which makes the accomplishment of this game even better.
With the great new graphics, humor, original game play, great music, and increased level of difficulty, we applaud Bioware and Interplay for a great game and give this game a 10 out of 10 rating.

Game hints & tips
- Always move when playing Kurt. Holding still only causes you to be hit by enemy fire.
- When playing Max, we recommend using 2 guns (one hand gun / one Uzi). Using more, unless during times of intense fire, is a fast way to lose ammo.
- Be cautious of enemies with Dr. Hawkins. Think smart and, if at all possible, try to prevent enemy contact.
