Overview:
This has to be one of the best games I have ever played on the actual Genesis. I was so glad to join up with the GOTW staff because I wanted to review this game since the first day I played it. It's just pure GOLD.

Oh, wait. I thought we were talking about Mortal Kombat.

Shaq Fu, also known as Shat Fu, is possibly the worst fighter ever made. I would have gouged my eyes out sooner if I knew I was going to end up playing this game. I made the mistake of playing Shaq Fu just one time and I will regret that for the rest of my life. If you have the regret for actually paying for this piece of crap all those years ago, I feel sorry for you.

Gameplay: 2/10
It's extremely hard to hit the opponent because you have to hit the center of them. There's no way to get that damned close before you get hit. Although it isn't as difficult or frustrating as BattleToads.

Storyline: 1/10
Shaq was on his way to a charity b-ball game in Japan when he walks into a kung-fu dojo and stumbles into another dimension. Hooray, for painfully generic games!

Graphics: 4/10
Nothing special. The Genesis version looks like the Gameboy version.

Sound: 1/10
Terrible. My ears are bleeding just thinking about it.

Difficulty: 2/10
Beating this game requires luck. It's annoying as hell with the physics and the controls combined into one giant piece of crap. This is how not to make a fighting game.

The (horrible) End
