MDK 2 gets WiiWare release

BioWare wasn't always famous only for Baldurs Gate or Mass Effect: it had also developed the sequel to one of the greatest third-person shooters in gaming history - MDK.

The sequel will make its appearance on WiiWare today, becoming the first TPS title from the developers to do so.

MDK saw you embark on a mission as Kurt Hectic - janitor of inventor Dr. Fluke Hawkins - to save planet Earth from from an alien invasion.

Bioware made the sequel for publisher Interplay back in 2000. Staying true to the formula, which made the first game a cult classic, they also added playable bits for Dr.Hawkins and his six armed robotic dog, Max.

MDK 2 was released for PC and Dreamcast in 2000, and a port for Playstation 2 was made in 2001.

You can experience it on the Wii  for 1,000 WiiWare points now.
