I remember Moonwalker being a pretty fun game…although i was 8 when it came out, so that might not say much.

Another BAD celebrity video game, in the lines of Shaq Fu, was Wu Tang: Shaolin Style for the Playstation. basically the whole game sucked…the controls were bad, the gameplay was bad, the storyline was stupid. It was basically just a way for the Wu to cash in on something new.

You guys are missing one of the greatest, most bizarre games of all time, unofficially produced, of course. I am speaking of the legendary Charles Barkley’s Shut Up And Jam Gaiden. From the website:

“The Great B-Ball Purge of 2041, a day so painful to some that it is referred to only as the “B-Ballnacht”. Thousands upon thousands of the world’s greatest ballers were massacred in a swath of violence and sports bigotry as the game was outlawed worldwide. The reason: the Chaos Dunk, a jam so powerful its mere existence threatens the balance of chaos and order. Among the few ballers and fans that survived the basketball genocide was Charles Barkley, the man capable of performing the “Verboten Jam”…

Flash forward 12 years to the post-cyberpocalyptic ruins of Neo New York, 2053. A Chaos Dunk rocks the island of Manhattan, killing 15 million. When the finger is put on the aging Charles Barkley, he must evade the capture of the B-Ball Removal Department, led by former friend and baller Michael Jordan, and disappear into the dangerous underground of the post-cyberpocalypse to clear his name and find out the mysterious truth behind the Chaos Dunk. Joined by allies along the way, including his son Hoopz, Barkley must face the dangers of a life he thought he gave up a long time ago and discover the secrets behind the terrorist organization B.L.O.O.D.M.O.S.E.S.”

I’m really sad the Custer’s Revenge link is down. I could really use some “very poorly animated nudity.” Haha…

I remember playing ET as a kid. I don’t remember it being that bad, at least to a kid!

Haha, I saw my friend playing Moonwalker last week! It’s hilarious. The best part is when he does a special move and all the bad guys danced with him.

“an opportunity for youth to get involved in the gang lifestyle without actually joining a gang” what?? there has got to be a better way to explain that… perhaps “a way to teach children about the dangers of street gangs”. or how about not making a video game about gangs in the first place? why put the idea in a kids head at all?
