I got this game for the Genesis with the bonus cd like 16 years ago. Wonder if I hadn't burnt it using the flamable lubrication of my early childhood dreams and unabashful tears...Would it be worth something?
I agree that this game does indeed suck, HOWEVER, for some god unknown reason, me and my pal played the ever living shit outta this game when we were little and got incredibly good at it. It's less bad when u know how to play it.
i played this once with my friend who has a buttload of old school games. that is the first time i have ever seen HIM rage quit a game lol. usually i'm the one throwing the controller after a shitty game of cruisin' usa.
@eldtagg Well, I didn't, as well as my buddies, as well as many who left the comments even right here. Not everyone.
"Everyone'"s main beef with it seems are "bad controls" when they are actually just unique, unlike any other fighting game, as well as combat mechanics and physics. Once you get used to it (which shouldn't take too long unless you're slow) the gameplay becomes exciting.
Graphics are nice, music - poorly arranged, still good, cheesy story? 99% of 90's games had cheesy stories.

Shaq Fu (Sega Game Gear) Graphics: 8/10 Sound: 6/10 Game play: 6/10 Fun Factor: 7/10 Overall: 27/40 (6.75/10)
I only can imagine that back in the 90s, Shaq was only thinking "how can I make more money? A GAME, yes... how can I name it?.... hmm It must have my name so it gonna be Shaq... but Shaq what? i'm gonna fuck everyone with this... OH I KNOW!!!!!! SHAQ FUCK YOU ---- Shaq F.U. ---- SHAQ FU!!!!!" XD
Damn straight Shaq Fu sucks it is by far the worst video game ever created. Just ask Game Stop. I would rather watch a double feature of Kazaam and Steel then play Shaq Fu. And just for the record, Kazaam sucked, but Steel was way worst and yet Shaq Fu sucks so much that it makes the movie Steel look like a melting pot.
I actually don't think this is as bad as most of the internet says it is. I just played it a few minutes ago and I actually found it fun. Nevertheless the games is crap so maybe it's just the novelty of it being Shaq. I actually enjoyed it more than Mortal Kombat 3... No Joke.
when i was young i gave my mom money i made from mowing lawns all over town and asked if she could get me a super nintendo game this is what she came back with the next day i returned it and got mega man x the best decision i ever made
This game cheats you so DAMN bad, it pissed me off and I actually broke the game because I kept losing! Basically because the CPU had strong special attacks and moves that the player couldn't use! And you could barely move around! The best way to have beaten the CPU is if you kept hitting them with a movinng-dropkick, which most of the time it wouldn't work out because they would always block! It will take a prayer and fast fingers to actually beat this game! REAL TALK! It sucks!
OMG. I just typed that in on Wikipedia and there's a club of ppl who all want to destroy each copy of this.... Like.... When I was around 4 I thought this game was the shit but now it is just shit.
Dude, I don't even think developers made it to beta when they released that game! They were still in Alpha stage and probably just said "Fuck it! Looks like a game to me! Can you say millions sold people!?" Yeah right. I will always hate that game. Superman 64 makes Shaq Fu look like Next Gen.
THANK YOU, thought I was the only one who thought this game had potential. What's so bad about this game!? I mean other than the shitty storyline and shaq (ok thats alot I'll admit) the gameplay was not that bad! Its probably easy to hate because shaq has failed at everything (rap, acting) not basketball though he's failing at that too now.
This game w/ a better story line and no shaq would have been a classic. I love the other characters.
i dont know about other versions, but on mega drive or sega genesis or whatever i remenber playing with other caracters(maibe on diferent mod, dont rly remenber)and even though it wasnt that easy it wasnt nearly as hard as he says and it was a good game too.
I HATE THIS GAME! It's on my list of one of the worst games of all time. Hell, even Shaq could rap better than this piece of crap!Even in 1994, when I saw the commercial for it, I could tell it was bad. just how bad is it? ar least the Genesis version had V.S. mode(that's not saying much), but the SNES didn't!
this was the first 16 bit game i ever actualy got to play. I grew up on it, anyone that says it sucks doesn't know what the hell they are talking about.
Belive it or not, it was declared the 4th worst game of all time in Gametrailers top 10 best and worst video games of all time. And the people voted for it!
no offence butt this game is easy, the reviewer just needs to put a bit more effort into this, ive completed it. AND u can play as the others just only in duel
yea, this game sucked when i got it. you play as some basketball player that fights people and that's it. IT SUX ASS, and the map thing, it sux. I spent 3 years trying to beat the game and i never beaten it.
at the time this was actaully a pretty decent fighting game i mean of course now it sucks ass but it was 1 of the best fighting games i played at that time...the snes version suck'd ass tho
