Context Trivia / MDK

Go To

1* ExecutiveMeddling: Not with the game itself, but the toy company that was going to make toys didn't want the full acronym (''Murder Death Kill'') plastered on potential ''MDK'' toys, even though the game was marketed towards an older demographic (the game was T-rated).
2* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: ''Mission: Laguna Beach'' was only a short promo disc for the game and is not on any of the re-releases, so good luck finding it.
3* KillerApp: The game came pre-loaded on many early bondi blue [=iMacs=] to showcase the company's increased entry into the PC gaming market.
4* RealSongThemeTune: ''Non Non Rien N'a Changé'' actually appeared on ''Billy Ze Kick's'' album ''Paniac'' that was released one whole year before ''MDK'' was released.
5* WhatCouldHaveBeen: According to [[http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/10/10/more-damn-kharacters-overhaul-games-trent-oster-on-putting-the-hd-into-mdk2-hd/ this]], Overhaul Games, the guys behind ''VideoGame/{{MDK2}} [[UpdatedRerelease HD]]'', actually considered giving this game the same HD treatment as its sequel, but the source code could not be found, making it impossible without recoding the game from scratch, which would most likely take up too much time for the development team.
6** As mentioned above, there were going to be ''MDK'' toys, but plans never really came to fruition.
7** A computer animated series by [[WesternAnimation/{{Reboot}} Mainframe Entertainment]] was slated, but never made.
8** The ''Gainax Ending'' music video [[https://youtu.be/ISFXmukrQO4 was filmed in color]]. But for whatever reason, the final version released with the game was converted to black and white. It was aired in color on French music video channels tho.
