Shaq-Fu

Meme status aside, this really shouldn't be in the contenders for worst games of all time. It's not good, but I can name a lot of way worse games off the top of my head before even getting to this one.

The Room was well made in the sense that it had competent camera work, editing and lighting. In fact that is what makes the bizarre incompetency of a lot of the rest of the movie seem so jarring. Things can be well made crap.

I think a fighting game that does "ok" in every other regard but fails to be a fighting game is still pretty bad. I can name worse games in general but I can't think of many fighting games that failed as utterly as this one did. The fact that the only ones I can think of are porn parodies of Street Fighter from that era in Japan that put far less effort into the gameplay than this tried to, probably doesn't speak well for the game. I mean in the Genesis version of the game the characters don't even fill the screen as much as they should and their limbs come apart at the seams.. I would say it's in the same tier of incompetence for fighting games, that Cheetah Men is for platformers. They both did some things right, but they both did some things horribly, horribly wrong.
Coupled with it being about Shaq and him fighting things too campy and cliche for an MK game and I can see why this reached meme status bad.
