Shaq Fu is one of those classic, misunderstood games that will never get the sequel it so badly deserves.

User Rating: 8.5 | Shaq-Fu SNES
By Steyrvolt | Review Date:
This game stands tall as one of the most memorable games in history. Here's a short pro/con list for the uninitiated.

Pros:

- Shaq
- Fu
- Mummy Dude
- Fire Guy
- Voodoo People
- Epic Storyline
- One of the only games on the SNES to suffer from severe slowdown.
- Button combinations are occasionally hard to enter correctly. This adds difficulty.
- Fitting music and sound effects.

Cons:

- Easily misunderstood, so it won't get a sequel.
- Clearly an advertisement for the advancement of kung fu artists in America.
- Shaq moves a little too slowly to be realistic to himself in real life.

It is probably the best game that will ever be made. You have to experience this before you die.

8.5/10

(Warning: Actual score should be a 4/10 for hilarity. I just felt this game needed a bump up. We've gotta see a sequel some day right?)

    Shaq Fu, this game has the most ADDish storyline as you can get, while still having a storyline. Also, the hit detection stinks. You could hit an opponent seven times, it doesn't count it. Also, they had set the oppon... Read Full Review
