- What would you say if I told you that you didn't know the full story of Daryl Dixon? This is the Daryl Dixon backstory that you never knew. In this one video I break down and explain the COMPLETE ENTIRE STORY of The Walking Dead Survival Instinct. I played it so that you didn't have to. When Survival Instinct came out back in 2013 it didn't get the best reviews and got an overall bad score. Over the years the game has fallen completely under the radar and so so many are missing out on such an important story that is vital to Daryl. This is the story of what happened to Daryl before he met the group in Atlanta, before he met Rick Grimes. I was shocked by what I found in this game.
What do you think of this story? What do you think of this type of video? What other games do you want to see me play? Let me know what you think down below. Thanks for watching. I'll see you soon.

I did not know about this daryl back story
U know i have to watch it all
I think Negan because if you watched Ali-A video today what are the checklist says a baseball bat you know what that means negan's going to come out I'm so excited
I think princess was apart of the hospital group that took Beth in season 5 because she called the walkers ‘rotters’ just like the
people in season 5
Hey Thanks! I enjoyed this alot 👍
I loved this game when I was young. I beat it about 4 times. My godmother bought it for me because she knew I loved the walking dead so for my birthday she got me this game and I’ll never forget that. Unfortunately she passed away about 3 years ago so this game definitely holds a special place in my heart.
Youe grandmother really loved you bro! May she rest in peace
Dang that's awesome memory that's what life's about and this game is bad ass take care bro god told me to tell you everything is gonna be ok just keep believing in yourself
My grandma took me to family video and rent it for me for bout a week I didn't get to beat it but last year I played it and beat it this game is def slept on
may she rest in peace❤️
I miss my granny too so much. Shout out to all the awesome grandmas out there. Rip to yours and my grandma
I'm surprised you didn't catch the name drop on the walkie during the hospital and stadium missions.... The soldiers mention a "Dr. Candace Jenner" - that's Edwin Jenner's wife, AKA "TS-19" from the episode of the same name in season 1!
I caught that, too.
Candace Jenner fit on that mouth?
Which means that the choppers were going to the CDC center or near there in Atlanta
yeah idk how he missed that but still got it in the video
Abused children who are severely physically or sexually abused almost always display symptoms of escapism. Where they create fantasy dialogue or worlds in their head, or imaginary friends that distract them during and after or even before the abuse occurs. With Daryl I believe he’s experiencing escapism, and creating dialogues with Merle in his head to get him through rough situations.
Also, both times he imagined seeing Merle he'd just taken a blow to the head, which can cause hallucinations.
I'll l
Damn Man U made me realize that as a child I did resort to escapism a lot. I would play by myself in a fantasy world even as I grew into a young teen I still played outside by myself
@@yungcris5211 I had a whole ass world in my head, with years long storylines. It was pretty intense. But it was shocking to realize how common it is. I thought I was the only one.
@@brie3679 your comment just made me also realize this of my childhood. Insightful
Exactly! Daryl has hallucinations when he goes through stressful situations. It’s his body’s way of dealing with stress. A defense mechanism, like ptsd. Ty for proving that.
Most TWD characters seem to do this at some point or another
What time has he hallucinated other than hiting his head when he fell and was and almost dying and taking an arrow to the side after his horse saw a snake
@@smwlil6ix333 chupacabra, he also hallucinate seeing his brother several times when he is really beat up or possibly looking at death. This is the way his brain gets his body up and moving.
I found it kinda strange that Merle was sad about his dad dying when he said he would've killed him if he hadn't left as a teen. It's kinda sad they were never closer to their uncle, he didn't seem to bad
Yeah uncle Jesse was WAY more likable, and this game should’ve been a bigger project if nothing else.
It’s actually realistic. Abusive relationships are like that. One moment you want to leave or kill the abuser, the next moment you will do anything for them. It’s why so many people are trapped in abusive relationships, they are under a delusion.
Maybe the dad wasn't always bad. He had his good moments. So Merle and Daryl kept those moments safe. He was their dad after all, even if he wasn't a good one
I remember merles death being spoiled on like the thursday, Survival instinct coming out on the Friday and Merles death episode on the Sunday, was a big week for the Dixon bois.
@@MarvelousPhilly oh shit yeah you may be right, I remember TWD used to air on a Friday in the U.K. didn’t it? Like 6 days after America
@@MarvelousPhilly last of us 2 came out on a Friday
Daryl had his own game and NO ONE TOLD ME
I thought this was well known or I'd have been yelling at everyone about it 😭 I loved this game idk why people hated it
it kind of sucked though loll. it was short asf & not really character developing. nun that we already knew, i do wish more was considered & put into it ahah. plus my arrows always flung out of the map lmfaooo.
He has another one called death stranding
its a poop game, daryl deserved better than this
@@ashleysludwig5564 just because Norman is in death stranding doesn’t mean his character is Daryl
I don't know why everyone hated this game. I loved it, the graphics could've been better but come on, it was 2013.
I like this game for the story, but you know.. is not as smooth as cod black ops 2 from 2012
They should Remaster it on the New PS5
The Last of Us was released in 2013.
I loved this game as a kid to
@@TheFriendlyFascist Yeah but they were made by a triple A studio, Survival instinct wasn't.
I still find it hard to believe that if Daryl by himself is able to do that much that the military fell so quick
I think it’s mainly because of lack of knowledge about the virus. It’s a lot harder to manage a bunch of people in the military than it is to manage yourself and maybe a few friends. Like say for example a member of the military gets bit by a walker, and not knowing that the bite would cause them to turn, they go to sleep in the barracks next to a bunch of other soldiers, then die in the middle of the night and bite a bunch of other people. Then people go into a state of panic either shooting non infected people or not shooting infected people because they aren’t really sure of the difference. Obviously if a horde of walkers started walking towards a military base they’ll just get mowed down or blown up, but if the virus spread to the soldiers themselves, it’s a whole different story. The virus basically divides and conquers. On the other hand if you’re in a remote area with only 2 other people, it’s a lot easier to manage.
WHEEEE I am Chikipichi the American and I cry because my countries soldiers fell to movie zombies WHEEEE God bless America
@@mycklaflonscamping1398 any army should've not fallen to this but the US especially having so much machinery
@@taxevader7777 I absolutely agree with u that is what I always thought was so scary about the virus that it was the confusion and panic that doomed the military and city's
In the real world it would have ended like Shaun of the Dead. Military raps it up in a day or 2
You missed something that red rag she gave Daryl he had that in the show in his back pocket in like season 2 or 3
Wasn't that the durag he got off Tdog after seeing merle cut his hand off?
@@gigglesmcgee2052 no the durag was white and blue, he did have the red rag for a few seasons in his back pocket
@@conorgrace98 oh true! Wouldve put money on it being red.
I think he has it when him and Rick meet jesus for the first time too. You see it when he steals the food truck.
it’s also probably incredibly easy to find more, as it’s just a regular mechanics rag. i just bought a pack of 100 for work recently
being a guy who can build bikes and then alexandrias garage he used to build his season 5(i think) bike, he probably got a lot more than just his original one
Didn't Lydia in s10 ask Daryl if he would be able to kill his own father when she was unable to kill her own? Dang this game really is his origin story.
Insane how much they loved their dad. It’s crazy how abused children can still love those parents at a core.
Who else has been patiently waiting for a solid TWD game for years ????? Like why hasn’t anybody done that yet??
Well there the telltale ones and there saith and sinners walking dead VR game so not years just 2 to 3 years.
@@jackmarshall3255 he means one based on the show
@@justinmark8653 oh yeah saint and sinner is cannon to walking dead tv show and telltale is cannon to the comics and they have that other walking dead VR game too that is cannon with rick and Daryl.
@@jackmarshall3255 wait the telltales walking dead is cannon to the show?
@@zom3433 no it cannon to the comic universe but saint and sinner is cannon I think to the show.
If he meets Anna in the show that would be everything
You know the red rag darly has in the show is that Anna's rag.
@@jackmarshall3255 yupp
@@BackffBtch that what I thought beacues he alway had a red rag with him in his pocket sometimes he has different rags in his pocket but he still has it in the show.
Bikers got rags hangin out their back pocket from workin on bikes all the time, ain’t a far stretch to say that the same rag tho I’m wit it
@@BackffBtch yeah the rag was the same color beacues he had different ones but every so often you can see a red one so I think that Ann's something to remember her by.
I actually really enjoyed this game, and the parallel of Daryl not being able to put down his father, and Rick not being able to put down Dale hits real hard
I Played this on ps3 a long time ago and up until now had no idea that’s it Canon to the TV show. But this video was very interesting with things like maybe the start of the CRM becoming the CRM. Great video
I was jst thinking tht good comment
@NEGAN I’m negan
Saint and sinner VR walking dead game is cannon to.
@@jackmarshall3255 nah thats in the comics universe
@@topsdaily_productions yeah I think your right I think it’s part of that universe but still fun game.
This reminds me of the The walking dead telltale games
The Telltale Games?
@@blakedevitt6948 yes I forgot
@@MarvelousPhilly His original comment didn't day Telltale Games. Said something else, like "Story Games," or something like that.
I love lee that game is fun or saint and sinner VR walking dead game.
@@jackmarshall3255 Same maaan
I perrsonally enjoyed the game, just thought it could of been a bit more open world style
RDR2 the walking dead style, luckily I’m working on a video based on just that
@@bmarshy is the video done or are you still working on it?
@@TheRedditMaestro I’m still working on it for now, I will add the link to this thread when I’m finished
It was made in 2013 tho
@@oscartolano6003 So was Grand Theft Auto 5. That's open world
The only thing merle cared about was his chair lol. " MY CHAIR!" Only time will tell if that chair is still there.
There are numerous ties between the game and the show. Examples of course include the two daughters, Amy and Andrea, Daryl meets later, and the vest he wears, but also... The red rag that the girl, Scout, throws to Daryl is the one that hangs out of his right back pocket. The stash that Merle went to get at Jake's is the SAME one Daryl pulls out of the motorcycle saddlebag in the show. That stash ALSO contains a bag of Blue Sky Meth, which is of course the drugs made in Breaking Bad. The mention of Candace Jenner PROVES that the helicopter MADE IT OUT... because of course she was at the CDC and died there (in the show) Supposedly (although I cannot find confirmation, other than the statements of others) the military vehicle Merle shows up in, at the game's end is the same one they had in the show. Also, supposedly, Jess Collins, at the start of the game, is Will Dixon's half brother, making him Daryl and Merle's half-uncle. I hadn't even THOUGHT about the idea of Daryl escaping in the helicopter to something like CRM or the Commonwealth! OH MAN!!
This video is WONDERFUL and shows some fantastic game tie-ins with the show itself. THANK YOU!!!!!
CRM and Commonwealth didnt existed in that time
you should've made the video. you pointed out way more of what i was expecting to hear and got right to the point
I think this could have been added to the Tales of the Walking Dead if they didn’t make this game. Maybe they could still do a mini series. I just want to see this in live action, honestly. This game seems like a cut set of flashback sequences for Daryl.
Daryl is getting his own future show not prequel tho
I always thought Officer Blake was some relation to The Governor, aka Phillip Blake. He talks about some family in his novel but I can't remember all their names. Also love how Daryl in this still the same Daryl in Seasons 1-3 of the show, before he started opening up to people & realized he has a family again after Merle died
Wasn’t the cop walker that Rick shot through the fence called jimmy? Might not have been him but eh
Considering what the military did to the civilian populace consistently and inconsistently throughout TWD universe, his brother probably did save him. Especially under the new context the game shows during the hospital.
wow , I've always really wondered what Daryl did before meeting the group , had no idea this existed. my mind is blown , I cant believe this . I was half way asleep when this video started playing , and I deliberately woke up just to watch this ,
Oh wow almost 1 hour....this is serious. :o
you know in the end why didn't merle pull those other people off that helicopter if the pilot was actually infected or bitten? he could have saved their lives and took them with them and had a little change to their story
@@dallasmay4031 because its merle 😂
Yeah but the sad part is that Merle nor Daryl said anything to Andrea in the show that they got her Father killed in the heli
Bc the part where you see the old man sitting down on the bed when his wife was layin down in the bed about to turn and he was telling Daryl how he looking for Andrea and Amy
I honestly loved this game, tho I’ve always been more about the lore than actual gameplay. Even then I found it awesome that you could only kill the zombies with headshots, something most other zombie games don’t do
Rip Merle’s chair 2010-2010 he never got back to it
"The game needs to give us a break...." hilarious 😂 I love this video.
something i didn't notice you comment on was when the helicopter leaves as Daryl is getting close at the stadium you can here the pilot say "Doctor Caitlyn Jenner is aboard, we are confirmed to leave" possibly referring to TS-19, or Dr. Jenner's wife from the CDC in season 1
Pls play more games your commentery is pure Gold
Yea
Thnx for the heart
The first helicopter that flew off at the Ending had Dr. Candace jenner (who's Dr. Edwin Jenner's wife) in it.
Edwin Jenner is the CDC Doctor from season 1 finale
Thought that was a really cool thing that's easy to miss
Edwin Jenner *
@@dylanbarroga25 I meant to say his wife was in the helicopter. You can hear it on the radio when the first helicopter lifts off. (Her names Candace)
Wow. I didn't catch that at the end of the game. Nice.
Didn't she die tho? I thought the doctor at the c.d.c shows a video of her brain synapses as she turns...
@@jesusgonzalez2591 she died a little later on, this game takes place before the show. As this game start at the very beginning
Its crazy to think daryl went from this to being Judith's father figure.
Played this as a teen- I still remember the hordes I took down as each one would wait patiently for the one already attacking me to get killed- and as soon as that happened the cycle restarted
I loved this game man, I unlocked all of the cheats, played through the entire game 7 times. it was amazing at the time and will always be a favorite.
You get used to trying to be stealthy, and the infinite spawns made the infinite ammo borderline useless, unless you use the crossbow, and or it’s the final level
I could just never get into the game when it came out cus of the crappy graphics & gameplay, but WOW, the story to this game is actually pretty great, and the narration just made it that much better 👌🏻 love all the Easter eggs towards seasons 1-3 of the show, such as andrea’s parents.
Would be cool to see you do videos on telltale’s the walking dead! (Although telltale twd games are in the comic universe, not the tv show universe, I love the connections there too!)
actually Telatale is maybe in the same universe because in the first season when Glenn leaves the group Lee gives him walkie talkie and thanks to that walkie talkie he was able to save Rick when he was stuck in the tank that was in Atlanta
Thank you so much for uploading this. I am too afraid to play games like this but I am grateful that you shared this, so we could see the background of Merle and Daryl
Yooo I loved that intro! I’m happy to see so many others appreciated this game as much as I did. Whatever people may think, it’ll never ruin the good memories I had playing through this way back when. 😂
So cool! It was like watching an episode..of.... "Dixon's Saga" ...thanks man..excellent job 😊
just picked this one up at my local pawnshop after all these years, I had it but I never played It because I hated losing, Im getting my old ps3 out of storage. Gonna be a fun one.
I used to replay this game every week for years. It still holds up, I recently replayed this game and am so glad it's getting recognition it deserves!
Still have the preorder zombie ear keychain on my keys
Hey George thanks for doing this . It brought back a lot of memories . I can't believe how long ago this game came out. I remember playing the shit out of it. And I also remember there was a lot of parts of the game that needed working on. But it definitely had a lot of potential
Been waiting all day for this!! 👀
Got my popcorn ready and now time for 50 minutes of George Drake 😌
I knew this game was Daryl’s backstory before he met the group we see in season 1 and I enjoyed the game I would replay it over and over again on my Xbox 360 back in the day man those were good times
Man i've been thinking about this since the game came up, it has the back story that no one knows. It is also important to know that Daryl got throught hell to be with his brother and that's the reason he gets so mad when he loses him again. Thanks for this video!!
Jeez this whole video was amazing i cant lie. I wish i got that game for my PS3 at the time. Well-made video dude, honestly a masterpiece.
I bet you've played the Last of Us so how about you play it on the highest difficulty..
I had a great time with it. It was fun going back through with your previous inventory and seeing how far you could get and how easier it would be.
Wow. Actually enjoyed the video. It was like watching a lost episode of the walking dead. Nice job!
I’m so glad you showed this, I had forgotten all about it. Very cool. Thanks.
Finally! Someone makes a video about this forgotten game.
a whole hr video? YES PLZ. Grabbing some chipotle while watching. Love this.
Coming back to rewatch this masterpiece of a video
Holy shit man......this whole video you made was amazing. I've been watching since you've been doing the walking dead. This just shows me and hopefully yourself what you are capable of. Great job man
I was waiting for this video 🔥🔥
Your best episode yet!!!
24:18 made me laugh and I'm not even sure why. You're reaction to Daryl cursing made me smile.
Well put together!!! I had no idea about his actual backstory? Loved the video!!
I have this game for PlayStation 3..tried playing it several times and it's very difficult to play, but after watching you play this im going to try playing it again!! Good shit bro!!
This video was a lot of work. Thank you!
thank you for this. very well done
Daryl Dixon was a legendary character in 2013 just 3 seasons into the show and his character deserved a great game that reveals his backstory. They rushed this game so they could release it before the start of season 3 but it shouldn't have been rushed...this game wasn't what the fans deserve but it's too late this game is canon and they will never do a remake of this game...TWD saints and sinners and future games is the future now.
Great Vid bro! As always🤟🏻
Great video! Thank you.
Thanks for the upload i wasn't aware it existed.👍
Thank you for this video. Made me really appreciate Dixon character even more.
Thank you for the informative video
That ‘sorry brother’ Edit at the beginning was exactly what I needed to see. Subbed.
ok but this game is actually really well made for its time & limitations. the animations are really smooth, the gameplay seems really fun actually & the voiceover is very well executed. kudos.
If Daryl got on that helicopter and went somewhere like the CRM or Commonwealth, I don’t believe he could’ve lived like that… well live like that the rest of his life… he’s a free spirit… he is always needing to take a breather from everyone… what transpired on TWD is more of who Daryl is than who he was at the Commonwealth.
CRM and Commonwealth didnt exist at that time
Great video!
I really enjoyed this video thx for making my day better :)
That edit at the end with Rick and Daryl was so badass
I still have this game somewhere in a box and I just forgot about it, but now I might go play it again
I played this game when it first came out and loved it! It’s the only Walking Dead game that has to do with the tv show and not the comics. I played it through about 5 times, I loved using the crossbow and after a learning curve I got pretty good with it, plus it’s silent and after finishing the game you unlock different rewards such as unlimited ammo for different guns. Now after watching your video I feel like playing that game again. 🙂
This was great! Thank you for this. Actually seemed like a decent game. Moar VR please!
This was one of my favorite games when I was growing up, I hope they remaster it in one way or another.
Excellent Video
For 2013, game don't look to bad. Enjoyed the vid 👌 thanks for leaving all the cut scenes in also
Oh wow! 1:47 that’s a cool detail they added, that Daryl couldn’t put someone down before but was able to help Dale cross the rainbow bridge, I actually love that, retroactively adds more depth to Dales death (which severely needed it, seeing as the only reason the actor left was because AMC screwed over Darabont)
thank you george this video was very interesting
I was still terrified of this game even after getting unlimited ammo lol
Bro same. I just always had a weird vibe when playing it at night. Made my skin crawl
I'm gonna sub lmao I love how he's so calm at the worst scenarios in this game
Awesome video George
I played it and it was a great game. Also your voice is killing me so ☮️
Awesome thank you so much for this
If they were to remaster this game and update the graphics I’d be glad to play it again
This game was a cash in...they rushed it so they could get alot of money from releasing during season 3...they have should developed this for a few years and it would have possibly been the Daryl backstory that fans deserve...it didn't look much better than a original xbox game and the pit stop levels were the same maps over and over...the travel choices were also fixed if dialogue started you just wasted gas. This game was bad but it has a very interesting story at times that fans of the show will enjoy and the game was fun but this was a disappointment and the company that made this were selfish and sacrificed creating a great experience bc they wanted to cash in...
This game should retconned and they should remake this story for PS5 , pc and the Xbox Series X...im sure Norman Reedus would it again and Michael Rooker could be persuaded to do one last twd appearance...maybe Hideo Kojima would be interested if twd approach him.
@@LightninLewis I’d like to see it be remade but Hideo wouldn’t come near it XD
@@Gibbypastrami Its not canon anymore it can't be, Merle feels sad when Daryl tells him that their father is dead and Daryl adores him in the game. In the show they both hated him and got beat up by him, no flashbacks, Merle is barely present and the game was trash all around.
@@Gibbypastrami The reason I thought that Hideo may be interested is BC it would be Norman Reedus who is involved in that project and the opportunity to create a game that could be considered as the best zombie game ever if he gets it right could be hard to turn down but maybe he wouldn't be interested...
Rooker is never coming back as Merle he said that and Norman is too old so its not going to be in tales of the walking dead, Norman should be in a prequel game that shows backstory of Daryl.
Great video
I absolutely loved this game, can't believe I forgot about it until this video. I'm even more surprised that it apparently wasn't so well received.
George's little giggle when daryl swore😂
I really enjoyed this actually! I'd honestly like to see you play games that you'll nerd out and get excited over. For instance I love dragons so when I play skyrim I'm pretty excited about everything that happens.
Great gameplay 👍🏽
I always loved this game and never understood the hate . This was an awesome and informative video , it was nice to see this game finally get a fair retrospective.
Omg this video brings back so many memories of playing this game
When I first played this game way back on Xbox 360 I loved it😂 I guess I don’t understand why people hated this game, so good
Agreed, I still play it and the horde dlc.
Never understood what people was going to expect.
I really enjoyed this one George, thanks. 😉
43:44
Thats Dr. Edwin Jenners wife!
The woman who lost it was Jenner’s wife at the CDC?
I loved this game growing up so much. Especially being a huge Norman reedus fan in my childhood
Yooooo you should make some gameplay and show ppl I appreciate u makin this video I agree with you 100 percent
Imagine if this game got a upgrade. Better graphics better animation. I would 100% buy it again and bigger open world maps.
