Okay, let’s be real—Shaq Fu is one of those games you play more for the absurdity than the actual fighting mechanics. You pick up the controller, and suddenly you’re Shaq, throwing punches at random villains in what feels like a fever dream. The animations are stiff, the hit detection is… questionable, and yet, there’s something weirdly charming about watching a 7-foot basketball legend karate chop his way through a dojo.

The first time I played, I couldn’t stop laughing at Shaq’s exaggerated grunts and the bizarre enemies (seriously, who designed that mummy?). It’s not exactly Street Fighter, but if you’re in the mood for something ridiculous with a side of nostalgia, this is it. Just don’t expect a polished experience—half the fun is how janky it all feels.

Grab a friend, mash some buttons, and embrace the chaos. You’ll either love it or wonder what the '90s were thinking.
