That looks terrible. What is it a beat em up?

I see nothing terrible on this at all.

Just the fact that it never takes itself seriously is already a good sign.

The only reason this game got such bad reputation is because of that hater site who would buy cartridges of the game to "liberate" (read: destroy) them.

Shaq Fu was an terrible game. The animations are very fluid, but they had spent so much time doing the animations that they forgot to care about the game per se.

Shaq Fu was an average game (there's nothing particularly good about it, but I've definitely seen worse), the kind of which came at dozens at that time and would be pretty much forgotten, were not for the fact it has a celebrity on it. The premise alone was stupid to begin with, so it was fated to failure even it ended being a good game.

rofl that's awesome! In a funny way. Did those ninja's have midriff?!

If you go to the URL at the end of the video, this is actually something they are developing, but it's like a kickstarter project. So, this may never get made if they don't achieve their goal.

I'm not going to play this, but I love that this is happening. I think it's funny and outrageous.

Do not fool yourself. Shaq himself will pay the difference.

Well, they claim that "There are two, and only two, similarities between our Shaq Fu, and the abomination that was born in the nineties: The name, and the starring character" so it can be a good game...
Though looking on screenshots I can say only this - after victory over Ryu in SF4 something ticked in Sagat's head and he started punching match spectators just for the fun of it. Well, it looks just like that to me.

I agree. In a more positive approach it is really nice to see Shaq so heavily involved in this.This actually has the opposite effect of the original Shaq Fu. This time we see a big celebrity in a game and we get all excited. Looking at the trailer if that is any way a representation of the gameplay I am not sure it is something that I personally would play. Or most people. The animations and models are not really all that appealing. It brings nothing new to the table so far. I think the focus is way more on Shaq and less on the actually game. I hope this does get funded. I usually participate on crowd funding mostly on Kickstarter so I see a lot of potential here. I understand that they want to take this wacky approach which is cool, but I think they need to give the models another go. The more they get funded the better the models should look is how I see it. No doubt this gets funded though.

The crowdfunding goal has been achieved!

well it already reach the goal (with alil money from shaq) so this game will be on every game systems(wii-u,xboxone,ps4,ps3,xbox360,possibly the pc and the handheld systems).

plus they are doing contest,parties and a shaq fu gaming tournament and yes cash prizes are included

so we might seen development of this game maybe at E3 later this year.
