User Rating: 7.7 | Spartan X NES
By bretthorror | Review Date:
Kung Fu, the simplest game in history. This is one of the first NES games and is considered to be the first beat 'em up game ever made for a console. Inspired by old martial arts flicks (Game of Death!), this is the type of game you pick up and play over and over for small amounts of time, something perfect for the gamer without time to find every hidden package in Vice City, but still wants to kick the crap out of people. The game isn't good, but it's just so damn bad it's great! The sound effects, of course, are not exactly DTS quality, but the kung fu noises are hilarious and just hearing them alone makes you want to start jumping off chairs and bicycle kick your mama!
