@@g.o.g4336 yeah, this game was remastered and re-released as a bonus with Assault on Dark Athena. I just bought it on PC so I could replay BB and AoDA again because they're amazing. I love the whole Riddick universe and lore
This game aged so well!!! My stepfather bought this game as a way of making peace with me. I miss him dearly. Thank you for this opportunity and this upload. 💔He passed away December 21st 2007. 💔
Holy crap this game came out the same year as GTA san andreas. The graphics are astounding. Can't believe it took me this long to find out about its existence. I've been a fan of Riddick since watching pitch black when I was 10.
Whether remastered or not. These are the perks with graphics you get in games with close quarters. Metro is another example of a game that aged extremely well. And it's cause the competition usually had to render whole worlds. I'm not downplaying them. It just happens that sometimes the story itself in its setting benefits the game developers to go ahead of their time in what they can do
Along with the general quality of gameplay; your camera work is just fantastic! Panning and movement is so smooth. The way you focus on details like the wall directions (51:05) to keep the viewer aware of the current objective is just genius. Honestly such great work dude!!
@dream Hey! don’t know if you found a copy yet but I just beat it today and I ordered mine on Amazon. Since it’s such an old game it is extremely unlikely you can find it in store
The new games are trash. That's why I'm always playing old games. People think it's weird. But the new shit just doesn't interest me at all. Games like timeshift, condemned criminal origins, and chronicles of Riddick just hit different and I bet they're more games like that, that I have not discovered yet.
Very well played. The whole thing is like a Riddick movie, seamless transitions and considerate pacing. I'd love to see you play Assault on dark Athena. I've tried to watch others play it but they tend to back peddle or get lost all the time and it breaks the immersion.
I would love to see a Riddick movie almost entirely focused on him in a max security prison and escaping from it. I mean, he was in a prison and escaped from it in Chronicles, but I think a movie similar to the Butcher Bay game storyline would be epic

For the longest time, I really thought Riddick got surgery on his eyes even after I played this game back in the day. I thought Pope Joe did the surgery but nope. It was in him all along. Funny how I misremembered it the same way Riddick did
This brings back so many memories from all those years ago. I remember being absolutely amazed by this game when I first played it, the graphics and the game mechanics were top notch for it's time. I played both this and the Dark Athena but Escape from butcher bay is my favourite. It would be great if they can come up with a new Riddick game.
Ive replayed this one countless times through the years and its awesome every time. The gameplay and story are awesome. From escaping the crazy prisons to prison yard brawls and mechs, alot of variety.
This is a game I always come back to because honestly it aged really well after all these years. I picked up my copy of Dark Athena in 2011 after discovering Butcher Bay playthroughs on youtube. Both Butcher Bay and Dark Athena are classic games.
One of my favorite single player games of all time. Never quite played another game that matched its atmosphere and pace. The original Xbox was a powerhouse!
Major nostalgia, I remember spending hours on this on original xbox and the remaster on 360. This was the definition of pinical gaming and you actually bought a full game aswel no drip feeding like all these big company's do now.
An underrated game at the time, but one that I have done several times. The sound environment and the gaphisms were (and still are) bluffing for a 2004 game.
If you are going for the smoke packs using this guides time stamps don't forget to talk to Shabby BEFORE entering the Infirmary, because he gives you the code. And if you enter the infirmary before talking to Shabby, you can't backtrack out of the infirmary
Is one of my favorite games ever on the OG Xbox and the remastered version on 360. I have a real longing to play this game again but sadly I no longer have my original or 360 Xbox consoles and the game is not backwards compatible on next-gen consoles so all I can do is relive it vicariously through you. I just started your play through so I'm sure I'm in for good ol time thank you man.
wow, the graphics aged like fine wine, especially the textures and animations look still super neat! man i loved this game so much back in 2004, the og xbox time was a good time🥹❤️
Been looking for a gameplay of this for a while and I've finally found it kudos to you man for making this fantastic game and you earned yourself a new subscriber 👍🏼
Damn bro you killed this It was like watching a movie iv played this game so many times as a kid and there was stuff I never even thought of doing your gameplay was fucking fantastic
Holy shit amazing gameplay! Either this is a tas or you're actually Riddick. This game still looks incredible. IMO the best looking game ever seen til Crysis came out and set a new bar. Hope to see Dark Athena :)
Halo series, midtown madness, breakdown, This game. Freaking bombs. Look at these graphics. Mechanisms and sound design is so freaking pure. This was released on the original Xbox perhaps before the 360 was even in the planning phase..
Excellent gameplay. Barely took any damage anywhere (if any lol) Love these kinds of playthroughs where the player knows what they're doing and complete
During the heavyguard sequence I was grinning from ear to ear. After all that Riddick had to put up with, it was so satisfying to completely obliterate the place and its inhabitants with that killer mech.
It was 2004 !!! - Truly awesome game. Even now it looks great - not only graphics but gameplay. I remember back then in 2004 how it totally unexpectedly literally destroyed all other FPS in that time. Even so glorified HL2 didnt stay a chence in my opinion to this game.
I think we need a riddick EFBB movie cuz one of the big things in riddick lore is his ability to escape from anything and anyone but his prison escape is only a short part of the 2nd movie

Man, this is some SERIOUSLY good presentation for a 16-year-old game. The graphics and audio are absolutely timeless...
Same here, I thought there was no way that this was released in 2004. It looks like Ghostrunner almost.
Dude it's remake of 2009, cuz this version comes along with assault on dark athena. Check out for real release of 2004. However that was cool tho.
@@g.o.g4336 yeah, this game was remastered and re-released as a bonus with Assault on Dark Athena. I just bought it on PC so I could replay BB and AoDA again because they're amazing. I love the whole Riddick universe and lore
they are mindblowing if you compare this to some 2021 games
OG Xbox was a fucking BEAST of a console for 2001
This game aged so well!!! My stepfather bought this game as a way of making peace with me. I miss him dearly. Thank you for this opportunity and this upload. 💔He passed away December 21st 2007. 💔
One of the best games ever made. Never will forget playing it even 17+ years later
Holy crap this game came out the same year as GTA san andreas. The graphics are astounding. Can't believe it took me this long to find out about its existence. I've been a fan of Riddick since watching pitch black when I was 10.
This is the remastered version
There's another one too. It's called assault on dark athena
@@psychosysqo Athena is an expansion and it's part of the game you're seeing here.

@@raresmacovei8382 Assault on Dark Athena is a sequel to this game. This game was a bonus remake included in the sequel's disc.
This is the BEST walkthrough for Riddick on the web , great job sir
I think this game is as close to perfection as it gets. Graphics, atmosphere, story, pace, voice acting, gameplay. It's an amazing achievement.
"So, whaddaya say? How about some smokes?"
"Gimme the smokes!"

Absolute crime that this isn't available anywhere these days.
I have my original copy from 2004 (6th or 7th grade for me lol). It's 5 CDs lmfaooooo
I just bought Assault on Dark Athena for the 360.
Right, I wish I had this game, having an original working copy is like owning a great old painting bc this game is a work of art

Playing Starfield reminded me of this interaction.
This is how every NPC, Receptionist, store clerk and their grandma greets you in Starfield.
What a game. They just don’t make them like this anymore.
Now they just like mocking and disrespecting their customers with low quality games most of the time.
@@kendallchristoun unfinished on release and then they make you pay for that content they could’ve included in the game
@@jimbeam2299 Right they make you pay via DLC.

I can't believe this game is 19 years old and the graphics hold up with games that came out over a decade later.

Nice job. Getting all those cigarette collectibles was cool too. That part at around 56:07 was funny by the way as well.
Probably should have said this back when I commented two years ago, but the way you played this and Dark Athena is almost like it's Riddick himself.
Perfect. Game is stunning. Did justice to character.
This game was/is a masterpiece, just like Chronicles of Riddick. Watching the game here now is almost like watching a movie.
Man this game had some tech that is almost a decade ahead of its time
Props to the developers (Starbreeze and Tigon Studios), for making this game.
I played Dark Athena a decade ago and loved it.
The Riddick franchise is fascinating.
58:17 Wow I struggled so hard to kill this enemy back in the day and you managed to kill it so smartly, congrats!!
For the longest time, I really thought Riddick got surgery on his eyes even after I played this game back in the day. I thought Pope Joe did the surgery but nope. It was in him all along. Funny how I misremembered it the same way Riddick did
Lol
Well, he did say he traded his eyes for a pack of smokes
We really need a remaster of this masterpiece.
this game was definitely ahead of its time in its day, aug 2004 hell it pre-dates doom 3
Technology definetely exploded in 2004-2005
Half-Life 2
Splinter Call Chaos Theory
Doom 3
Quake 4
Riddick
FEAR
Condemned
Far Cry
Unreal Tournament 2004
Thief Deadly Shadows
Deus Ex: Invisible War (stencil shadows in 2003)
Prey (eh, 2006)

Same I completely forgot about this awesome game until I came across this video. The nostalgia is real lol
@@jaymac7203 one of the most immersive games of its time. I'll never forgot how dark the world felt at Butcher Bay. This and The Darkness
Ive replayed this one countless times through the years and its awesome every time. The gameplay and story are awesome. From escaping the crazy prisons to prison yard brawls and mechs, alot of variety.
After 13 years I went back to the 360 and finally got the full 100% Thanks again for these guides!
Fantastic gameplay, incredible walk through. Smooth as hell, you turned my childhood favourite into a movie. Thanks man
Great to hear man, thanks for the kind words :)
When I first played this game I was blown away, it was so far ahead of its time.
This is a game I always come back to because honestly it aged really well after all these years. I picked up my copy of Dark Athena in 2011 after discovering Butcher Bay playthroughs on youtube. Both Butcher Bay and Dark Athena are classic games.
Yeah, certainly worth playing even today. Shame there is not a third game.

The cast is amazing
Always good to see someone good at a video game especially if it’s something I love
Jesus man I'm 3 hours in and I haven't seen you been hit once. You have definitely mastered this game
Ah yes this game! I remember we were all waiting for Doom 3 and Half-life 2. And then this game came from noware and was a blast.
Yeah, 2004 was a great year for gaming :)
Incredible game, thanks a lot for posting this! Brings back good memories
This is one one the best games ever made i still hope for more riddick games with this quality.
1:30:18 LOL *nervous whistling*

Your counter-attacks are incredible
the graphics sure looks groundbreaking for 2004
This is actually the 2009 remaster but still in 2004 the graphics were no joke for the XBOX.
Bravo! Great gameplay. This is my 2nd fav game of all time. Amazing game!
What a flawless LP...and really fun to watch! Thank you! 8D
Great run man. Those parts where you keep ringing the door bells, in guards quarters area, cracks me up 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Been looking for a gameplay of this for a while and I've finally found it kudos to you man for making this fantastic game and you earned yourself a new subscriber 👍🏼
Welcome to the channel :) I plan to play the Dark Athena soon as well :)
Excellent vid. I dipped in a few times to get through the game. As has been said, excellent game, even today.
Awesome to be able to relive this game from my childhood as an adult! Thank you bro I'm subbing !
"Ah, I dunno, I've seen this game many times-"
(it's patalogTV)
"DROP. EVERYTHING."
Omg I completely forgot about this awesome game? The nostalgia is real lol great quality video!
How are you pulling off such slick headshots? There isn't even a crosshair! Madness...
What a playthrough. Very Riddick.
Most gamimg monitors can put a crosshair on the screen for u. Its not gonna be seen on a recording
This brings me back to my childhood 😂 thank you for sharing this amazing run with us! ❤
Glad you enjoyed it :D
so, whaddaya say? How about some smokes?
Gimme the smokes.
God I used to love this game back in the day! 🙌 Remember playing it with a friend trying to figure it all out lol
@56:05 "TIME TO DI-" FOLDED!!!😂😂
That yeti thing got fucking embarrassed lmaooo
Damn bro you killed this It was like watching a movie iv played this game so many times as a kid and there was stuff I never even thought of doing your gameplay was fucking fantastic
Thanks! :D
4:20:18 hilarious Stormtrooper moment
Thanks!
Thanks for the support! :)
Holy shit amazing gameplay! Either this is a tas or you're actually Riddick. This game still looks incredible. IMO the best looking game ever seen til Crysis came out and set a new bar. Hope to see Dark Athena :)
One of the best walkthroughs I have ever seen
This masterpiece needs a remake
No, what it needs is a Steam release if Universal ever decides to let it happen.
This and Dark Athena.
😂😂😂
I remember playing this game and struggling, you play it like a natural on hard! Great job!
It's crazy that they had bump mapping and real time shadows in games 20 years ago.
*_Very Good. Like Man, 100% Game Completed_*
This is a brilliant playthrough, very professional, thank you!
When Riddick just teed off on Molina had me in stitches 😆34:13
Halo series, midtown madness, breakdown, This game. Freaking bombs. Look at these graphics. Mechanisms and sound design is so freaking pure. This was released on the original Xbox perhaps before the 360 was even in the planning phase..
Such an amazing game. It's one I could start fresh on and finish in the same day.
One of my favorite games ever. I wish this game and Deus Ex Invisible War were backwards compatible. Excellent walkthrough.
I'm 33 and played this game when it came out before watching the movie I love it. Great game. Exciting intense game
This game was so immersive and really quite unique, not many games go as hard as this one
Insane work dude! Big respect~!
Very good walkthrough, damn. Must have taken you a few runs to get all that stuff right xD
I remember having so much fun with this game. This game is by all means not bad (I read a lot of people complaining about it)
Star Marshal format? After finished episodes you create a longplay? Great idea mate!
Cheers
Yep :)
Anyone else love the shotgun in this game? The magazine being ejected when reloading is so satisfying!!
Well, I think the shotgun is a bit weak, due to wide pellet spread, but I do like the reloading animaton :)
@@patologTV yes all about that reload🙏🙏🙏
This game will eternally be a proof that great design (audio and video) just doesn't age,
I loved this game! Played it relentlessly when it first came out. It felt like I discovered fire when playing as it was not a mainstream game.
Oh my god. Am I the only one who peeped Marcus Fenix voicing Conroy. Hilarious.
2:59:24 “ Run little piggie! Oìììì! oììììì! Hahaha! “ I found you 🤪👍
Watching this high or drunk it a classic 😂
Thank you a lot for this! Hoping that one day you will complete also the "Assault On Dark Athena" game ! Awesome work !
Excellent gameplay. Barely took any damage anywhere (if any lol) Love these kinds of playthroughs where the player knows what they're doing and complete
Feels almost like a tech demo with how you played it too with the slow panning movement
Always love watching and playing this jewel or a game.
Great Gameplay 👍, this was one of my top favorite games as a 10 year old.
During the heavyguard sequence I was grinning from ear to ear. After all that Riddick had to put up with, it was so satisfying to completely obliterate the place and its inhabitants with that killer mech.

-time to die
*dies*
Best part of the LP, throwing dead bodies around like a gorilla would throw a sack of groceries XD
It was 2004 !!! - Truly awesome game. Even now it looks great - not only graphics but gameplay. I remember back then in 2004 how it totally unexpectedly literally destroyed all other FPS in that time. Even so glorified HL2 didnt stay a chence in my opinion to this game.
Nice gameplay! Liked...
Just beat the game today and still holds up well for its age.
It takes 15 hits to kill rust.
I think we need a riddick EFBB movie cuz one of the big things in riddick lore is his ability to escape from anything and anyone but his prison escape is only a short part of the 2nd movie
great run, also helped me a lot with the missable trophies, thanks!
Glad I could help :)
