Sid S imagine if we took all the money put into games like this, or the new Bubsy game, and put it into Barkley 2. God that’s the world I wanna live in.
Barkley 2 got too big for its britches and they ran out of money. I actually prefer a game becoming vaporware over actually being released and being garbage. Lookin' at chu, Bannerlord.
You can see progress is still being made (albeit slowly) on Barkley 2. FrankiePixelShow streams his work on the game on twitch on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Vaporwave is meritorious in its own way, calling to mind the harsh captialistic nature of our society and encapsulating the longing for a simpler time that wasn't much simpler. That said, I need some SU&JG2 in my life. Hi gaaaltn!
Spencer Medford I honestly think this is worse than the first Shaq Fu. All of Shaq's 90s promotional material was bad but you at least got the dumb novelty of watching Shaq fight a mummy or be a genie. Shaq Fu 2 is trying too hard to be self aware and comes off as obnoxious. It's also ugly as shit.
*DISCLAIMER:* This is connected to the Barkley Universe. You need to play this to understand Shaq's side story and how many -Xehanorts- Jordan's there are.
Diego Medina NewspaperRookieSuperCop Cole Phelps only arrested one guilty Latino. Maldonado didn’t count because he didn’t kill Antonia. Neither did the first murder case guy. However, Gabriel Del Gado did run the car dismantling thing. Also, all the Latinos Cole “subdued” in Reefer Madness were not arrested in the traditional method, so the racial ratio for Phelps doesn’t seem as extreme as you make it out to be. ❤️
Bad jokes of them not being creative? Bad jokes as them just being really bad? Bad jokes as them being so bad they're good? Or bad jokes considering the modern sensibilities of today?
Also Guan Yu is a fucking legendary Chinese general of the Romance of Three Kingdoms who was deified as patron of warfare and loyal defender of China. Who made this trash, and how do we make them never make more again?
Woolie plays DMC4. Pat plays Bayonetta 2. Matt plays Shaq-Fu: A Legend Reborn This is the perfect analogy of the Best Friends. Edit: Alternatively, this is just “Matt plays Godhand”
"Anyway, the game does not represent Shaq's views on anything or anyone. He's a nice guy. Leave him alone." I think I busted a gut just reading that screen message.
3:25 "Who bullies someone b/c they're the biggest kid in terms of tall-ness?" *slowly raises hand* I was a big, awkward kid w/ low self-esteem which made me a target for bullies.
OK, despite how bad this game is, I do love that this game's description for the hard difficulty is "May induce labor." Which is probably the only funny thing in this game that's *intentionally* funny. It's pretty damn sad that this game reaches it's highest point before you even leave the main menu.
I appreciate you guys sacrificing, literally murdering, your time to show us hot garbage. May we all learn a little bit from this unfortunate experience.
"Like who bullies someone because they're the biggest kid in terms of tallness?" From like, first to fourth grade, I was bullied incessantly, until one of my classmates tried to fight me and I realized how much bigger I was than everyone else.
This game looks like one of those games you'd buy on a whim on the Xbox Live Arcade back in 2010 because you had like 1200 Microsoft points leftover you had no idea what to do with. You never heard of it on any gaming websites or saw any reviews, but some dudes on a forum said it was reeeaallly fun, and the screenshots and the funny meme-filled description on the store page piqued your interest so you figured why not. You then proceeded to play the game for a total of 4 hours across 2 or 3 days and then never again, as it was poorly made and boring as hell. You quickly went back to Geometry Wars 2 and Marble Blast Ultra. Time goes by and you forgot you had it. It sat there on your HDD collecting digital dust until one day you were scrolling through your installed games looking for things to delete to make space for some cool new game that needed to install data. You then played it one last time for like 20 minutes. You then deleted it.
Great, between the Chris Brown reference and the GoW reference, all I can think of is Kratos pledging himself to the God of Hip-Hop and getting the Chains of Rihanna as his weapon.
"My story is convoluted and full of holes, so pay attention." Not even 5 minutes and I'm more engaged in this than that Tokyo Idol game. Is this set in the same universe as Barkley Shut Up and Jam Gaiden?
Does any one here remember the ps2 classic I-Ninja,i recently played it on a emulator and damn its so good.I dont think there is any other game like this on any platform,the variety of that game from first person mech battles to its platorming and an expanded combat system feels like a healthy mix
I don't understand why your giving this game so much hate guys; games filled with dead memes and outdated jokes are great! Especially when the dead memes are so bad that they're good or when the outdated jokes are so cheesy that they're funny!
I was thinking if I had any programming talent I'd make a Majima game. It'd be a mystery dungeon game though cuz I love those. And I wouldn't beg strangers for $400k to make it or whatever Matt said this game cost.
Erik Williams what's strange about it? All they said was it felt weird to play, which doesn't work for the camera..., and then they just kept saying "just look at this" over and over again as if saying that explained why the game was bad. I'm not saying this game is amazing but I would definitely say that the first hour of God Hand and I Have No Mouth And I Must Speak looked way more janky and convoluted than the first 30 minutes of this game
He was in Movies pat, not just one. Don't You Remember STEEL (1997)? Based off the DC character of the same name who was an ally of superman even though the movie doesn't mention weather or not superman even exists in the universe of this movie aside from a reference
I like how at 10:07 Pat cries out "What the fuck!" at the dudes clipping into each other, and it was just enough of a distraction to miss the dude obviously spawning in on the left
Because there's an infinite amount of money available for projects referencing things that people in their late 20s and early 30s remember from their childhoods, regardless of quality. It's also why Family Guy is still on the air, despite never being funny or insightful or pleasing to look at
Well, this is America. And the northerner and South parts too. And I guess the.. other countries of persons that helped fund this. And....dreams. This was harder to type than I originally thought.
The same reason people were willing to give money to Sony Pictures for The Emoji Movie during it's theater run; GOT TO KNOW. I know that's why I backed it.
_"My story is convoluted and full of holes, so pay attention"_ should be Pat's new motto whenever he activates Crazy Talk.
But then it would be the only thing he ever says. Or he never says it because Crazy Talk is never consciously activated, being an Automatic-Type Stand
Speaking of Crazy Talk 21:35
Crazy Talk is still effective i see.
Good.
Gooood.
Huh, I didn't know David Cage made this game.
Ben Russell
After saying it all of Pat's Dark Souls lore makes sense.
This game looks, feels, and sounds like a direct to xbox arcade game.
And not like one you'd pay for, but like one you got for free with a download code that came from some other Shaq-related product.
From an oddly soggy piece of paper you got out of a used IcyHot container in the alley behind goodwill.
ChivalrousSnake is that a rap lyric?
Dentenshi Reignhart no but it should be. Too bad I'm a terrible lyricist.
It's somewhere between than and an Xbox Indie channel game.
This game got funded and created meanwhile Shut Up and Jam Gaiden 2 is basically vaporware.
Life is eternal suffering.
Shut Up and Jam Gaiden 2 is still being made. Just really slowly since they're doing it for free at this point
Sid S imagine if we took all the money put into games like this, or the new Bubsy game, and put it into Barkley 2.
God that’s the world I wanna live in.
Barkley 2 got too big for its britches and they ran out of money. I actually prefer a game becoming vaporware over actually being released and being garbage. Lookin' at chu, Bannerlord.

Hi gaaaltn!
I'd like to congratulate Shaq on his free throw average no longer being the worst thing he's ever produced.
So... Shaq Fu 1, Shaq Fu 2, FTA?
Shaq Fu 2, FTA, Shaq Fu 1. At least I can have fun playing Shaq Fu 1 and making fun of it with friends.
Spencer Medford I honestly think this is worse than the first Shaq Fu. All of Shaq's 90s promotional material was bad but you at least got the dumb novelty of watching Shaq fight a mummy or be a genie. Shaq Fu 2 is trying too hard to be self aware and comes off as obnoxious. It's also ugly as shit.
Not a joke I expected in this places, but I love it nevertheless
There was his rap career

The Barkley Cinematic Universe coninues to grow
And people talk about how in depth the Marvel cinematic universe is...
God that E3 trailer this year that revealed that BARKLEY GOT NORTED! BARKLEY GOT NORTED! FOR FUCKS SAKE BARKLEY GOT NORTED!
Rohan Kishibe and 『Heaven's Door』 The Barkley Verse gets more confusing by the week.
Man now I wanna watch Charles Barkley Gaiden that Pat and Liam played years back.
disappointed it doesn't say part 1
I'm more disappointed that it said 'Two Best Friends Play Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn'
Shaq Fu 1 (2018)
Don’t worry, it’s gonna be a weird naming convention for this.
Next is gonna be Shaq Fu: Phantom Blood
Shaq fu, part 1/1
I wish
"My story is convoluted and full of holes" Is an amazing opening line.
Glad pat the blackest member of the zaibatsu is here
Devon Palmer, Well he had to fill in for Liam.
Wrong. Matt is clearly blacker.
Timefliesbye who do you think inspired those drawings. Patrick the black ginger
Devon Palmer Hmm..trying to think of a Black Clover joke. But I don't watch trash.
deslacooda WHY NOT?? AAAHH
Great to see they finally play Woolies game.
It's a shame Woolie couldn't be here to experience it with them.
Go back to arresting Latinos you nerd.
Diego Medina NewspaperRookieSuperCop Cole Phelps only arrested one guilty Latino. Maldonado didn’t count because he didn’t kill Antonia. Neither did the first murder case guy. However, Gabriel Del Gado did run the car dismantling thing. Also, all the Latinos Cole “subdued” in Reefer Madness were not arrested in the traditional method, so the racial ratio for Phelps doesn’t seem as extreme as you make it out to be. ❤️
FatPanda54 it’s a joke Jesus Christ lol
Ken Dynamek the response was too
400,000 Kickstarter bucks
5 bad jokes before the 5 minute mark.
Worth every penny.
Bad jokes of them not being creative?
Bad jokes as them just being really bad?
Bad jokes as them being so bad they're good?
Or bad jokes considering the modern sensibilities of today?
Between this and the new Bubsy, I think there's more than enough proof that you can't revitalize brands out of irony.
It also proves that people are going to keep trying regardless. It's not like those two games' source material was strong to begin with.
This game would be worth it if it WAS trash. But it's so painfully average and mediocre that it leaves no taste in my mouth.
*memes.
Meme are indeed powerfulk influencers to the point of funding 2 games that are considered jokes.
"I will give this game 1 Credit: It came out." Wow, Pat. High praise for this!
Also Guan Yu is a fucking legendary Chinese general of the Romance of Three Kingdoms who was deified as patron of warfare and loyal defender of China. Who made this trash, and how do we make them never make more again?
So the first boss is a mutant Chris Brown Monstar that makes jokes about beating women. Didn't expect that
Dylan Farris they should of stayed for the second boss which is just Donald trump as a robot
*SHAQ ATTACK IS BACK*
*_LETS GREEN EGG AND HAM IT_*
I was waiting for someone to say it. I knew someone would. You, sir/madam, did not disappoint.
That's hip-hop.
Shaq: 'I got bullied for being tall!' *insults the Boss for being fat*
This game got a lot of kickstarter backers to fill in voices. So that might explain why Shaq is the best voice actor in this.
spoiler : this isnt him being a voice actor, they just had him tell the backstory to one of his D&D characters of which they recorded.
President of Whiteistan That, and they outright ripped audio from professionally produced commercials Shaq was in and used it in-game.
CronoDyne that doesnt sound legal
Shaq is actually very charismatic, he’s a goof ball with a lot of personality
Tony Goode This video is the result of 3 canadians playing as a man they know nothing about who played a sport they know nothing about.
Why isn't this part 1?!
Hey it’s the Devil May Cry meets street fighter inspired by dark souls classic
Shaq-fu is the Dark Souls of 90's basketball star beat-em-ups.
I heard Devil May Cry was actually inspired by the Original Shaq Fu.
AnimeChibiGuy “Bayonetta was originally gonna be Shaq Fu 2.”
AnimeChibiGuy at the end of the trailer to this game, kobe's driving towards the camera on a motorcycle.
It's interesting, DMC 1 was actually an attempt to make there own version of Shaq Fu in the Resident Evil engine.
AnimeChibiGuy
Inspired? More like shameless asset flip.
3:43 Seems like the village elder got a little *cocky* with Shaq's training.
brainflash1 the game itself is doing more than enough of this. Your services are not needed.
He sure was getting *a-head* of himself!
Time to get that delicious Shaq Meat
Is Woolie absent in this video cause Shaq is technically Bi-racial in this game?
kaizerdeath12 if anything that would make him want to play
Half man, half whatever whale that was that dropped him off.
Huh you ever notice you never see Shaq and Woolie at the same place and time? weird.
I mean, black man from china with a big body? Seems like Woolie has some past trauma.
Woolie is too white for this game.
Woolie is technically in this video too. He's just asleep on the couch.
I can already tell this is gonna be a great video from the Green Greens intro.
GOD HAS COME TO REAP THE SINNERS
Woolie plays DMC4.
Pat plays Bayonetta 2.
Matt plays Shaq-Fu: A Legend Reborn
This is the perfect analogy of the Best Friends.
Edit:
Alternatively, this is just “Matt plays Godhand”
"Anyway, the game does not represent Shaq's views on anything or anyone. He's a nice guy. Leave him alone."
I think I busted a gut just reading that screen message.
Just play Devil May Cry already, you cowards!
Gotta wait till BANG BANG BANG
They just broke the Devil Hand glass, and now you want them to shatter the Devil May Cry china as well? You ask for too much.
Masterxl MVs I don't care! I demand more entertainment!
DMC 3 or 1?
Akira No Legs Fudo 3 babyyyyyyy
3:25
"Who bullies someone b/c they're the biggest kid in terms of tall-ness?"
*slowly raises hand*
I was a big, awkward kid w/ low self-esteem which made me a target for bullies.
"My story is convoluted full of holes so pay attention"
I thought we were done with David Cage games for a while?
There is a Barack Obama DLC for this game called Barack Fu: The Adventures of Dirty Barry.
Any and all criticisms for this game are therefore invalid.
This is the Let's Play we deserve.
13:05 Shaq is literally the most charismatic individual in basketball
OK, despite how bad this game is, I do love that this game's description for the hard difficulty is "May induce labor." Which is probably the only funny thing in this game that's *intentionally* funny. It's pretty damn sad that this game reaches it's highest point before you even leave the main menu.
One of two things, and both are delivered within seconds of each other. (Convoluted and full of holes joke.)
I had more than a few good laughes from it personally.
G O L D. B O N D
I appreciate you guys sacrificing, literally murdering, your time to show us hot garbage. May we all learn a little bit from this unfortunate experience.
Well, on the bright side, it doesn't look like the worst beat em up ever made. So, that's a plus.
Dark Mountain Productions well yeah, the first Shaq Fu exists
I was thinking more along the lines of, it looks better than TMNT Turtles in Time Reshelled and Double Dragon 2 Wander of the Dragons.
I think its worse the fact that its so mediocre
Dark Mountain Productions, I'll still play those over this.
It always amazes me when Shaq does these obviously terrible marketing moves, like doing a voiceover for this is akin to marketing suicide.
4:06
When are we getting a Shaq-Fu skin for Doomfist?
The LP we neither wanted nor deserved.
Congratulations Super Best Friends! You just saved this game and The upcoming sequel. Hope ya feel proud!
So when is Barack Fu?
Sanodi21 in development
Obunga-Fu
not worth it
he cant beat the final boss
When you play Barack, paper, scissors, you always lose....
Sanodi21 That’s gonna be dlc.
12:10 "Ghostbuster" is the obscure horror prequel to "Ghostbusters" where it's just Rick Moranis chasing Sigourney Weaver through vents
So when's the Kickstarter for the crossover between Jackie Chan Adventures and Shaq-Fu?
AGrayPhantom With American Dragon and Juniper Lee DLC.
Anything to avoid playing Drake of the 99 Dragons.
Once that playthrough comes through, the satiated planet will simply wither and rot away.
They played that on one of their mystery boxes a year or two ago
that's actually one of the only games i know of that got rated worse than godhand on ign
MattManDX1 Was it a *full playthrough?*
no just a one off
I wonder Big Green, I wonder.
I really want a full LP, cause it's obvious work went into the cutscenes, but I don't want to play the bad game
First cutscene: Huh, it actually looks quite good.
Gameplay starts: Ohhhhhhh no.....
This isnt Marlow Birggs and the Mask of Death Full LP Part 1
WHEN'S MAHLOWE? I still hold a tiny flame of hope in my heart that, one day, they will do a full playthrough of the best action game ever created.
I want a full LP of that Ghost Rider GoW clone, too.
"Like who bullies someone because they're the biggest kid in terms of tallness?"
From like, first to fourth grade, I was bullied incessantly, until one of my classmates tried to fight me and I realized how much bigger I was than everyone else.
*MMM THE GOOD SHIT*
Fun fact: Shaq is the only one mixed properly because the enemies are voiced by Kickstarter backers
Space jam 2: Shaqs revenge
This game looks like one of those games you'd buy on a whim on the Xbox Live Arcade back in 2010 because you had like 1200 Microsoft points leftover you had no idea what to do with.

"Well that's Shaq-fu"SHAQ-FU!
He said Ghostbuster and Avenger, both as singular as opposed to the real titles which are plural. You guys missed the "joke"
that giant sneaker coming out is some bayonetta shit
Pat you forget that Shaquille O’Neal was John Henry, also know as The superhero Steel in 1997 Steel Movie. Shaq was in a lot movies.
"My story is convoluted and full of holes, so pay attention."
Not even 5 minutes and I'm more engaged in this than that Tokyo Idol game. Is this set in the same universe as Barkley Shut Up and Jam Gaiden?
Jordan is just Vergil
Is Kobe Nero?
Who is Lady?
Trish?
-Lucia?-
Oh shit a TMS crack how original and not at all tired and annoying to see, especially in non TMS videos. You're so funny...
Let me get my popcorn before the Weeb Brigade arrives
Edit: One already made it in :^)
I can't wait for this to completely dwarf TMS in views
Adam It already has. 4 hours and 3x the views of the other videos that have been out for days. Wow.
I bought it, I have no regrets.
Does any one here remember the ps2 classic I-Ninja,i recently played it on a emulator and damn its so good.I dont think there is any other game like this on any platform,the variety of that game from first person mech battles to its platorming and an expanded combat system feels like a healthy mix
I don't understand why your giving this game so much hate guys; games filled with dead memes and outdated jokes are great! Especially when the dead memes are so bad that they're good or when the outdated jokes are so cheesy that they're funny!
First five minutes...can Matt not tell the difference between a 2.5D beat em up and a 3D arena fighter...?
A new Shaq Fu game being covered... does this mark the return of the Scrublords?!?
HighwaterTrousers, The Scrublords never left.
Waiting on the next brawl
Toss it back in the ocean!
The animation studio they hired for this game is undoubtedly god-tier.
I feel like if you donated money to a Shaq Fu sequel you deserve whatever you got.
GundiMike, like it's hard to offend people these days. An US citizen got offended because I called him an US Citizen.
I mean you're not wrong.
Woolie go down!
Kirby theme go up
HMW is supposed to be BMW, the car manufacturer.
There goes mat getting offended at everything
The final boss is a free throw.
I'll give them a +1 for the roundhouse kick that launches people into the screen with the big shoe. I like that animation.
Actually surprised they didn't get woolie for this
I think he needed to recover from David Cage's Android Civil Rights Movement.
Woolie knew he’d never recover from the damage
We need a playthrough of this.
God has abandoned us
indeed
A'HM COMIN BACK
god was never here
*God hand
Nah, he's still here. He was in a Matt's Hot Import Nights earlier today.
Pat's confusion paired with Matt's sarcasm is a gift.
Frizzle looks like a Fortnite save the world enemy
The best thing about this game from what I have seen so far is the destruction animations from breaking shit.
I donated $150 to this project. They sent me a t-shirt. I am not disappointed.
This is your fault.
“The world wasn’t ready for Shaq Fu at that time.”
We still aren’t ready.
Yeah, that face on the thumbnail seems appropriate.
"My story is convoluted and full of holes" Holy shit, that sentence is the best birthday gift anyone has ever given me.
Too bad it wasn't MAD DOG OF SHIMANO that produced this. Would've been an actual game
AfroMetalMizu Who expected this game to be good? The base is made of trash.
Majima wants nothing to do with this.
KIRYU-CHAN !!!!!!!!
I was thinking if I had any programming talent I'd make a Majima game. It'd be a mystery dungeon game though cuz I love those. And I wouldn't beg strangers for $400k to make it or whatever Matt said this game cost.
Ghost5410 I downloaded those nuzlocke eps so fast, boi
When the thumbnail alone brings a smile to your face...
Am I the only one strangely entertained by this game?!
Erik Williams what's strange about it? All they said was it felt weird to play, which doesn't work for the camera..., and then they just kept saying "just look at this" over and over again as if saying that explained why the game was bad.
I'm not saying this game is amazing but I would definitely say that the first hour of God Hand and I Have No Mouth And I Must Speak looked way more janky and convoluted than the first 30 minutes of this game
That intro song is so satisfying.
Oh thank God, finally something that isn't Tokyo Mirage Sessions.
He was in Movies pat, not just one. Don't You Remember STEEL (1997)? Based off the DC character of the same name who was an ally of superman even though the movie doesn't mention weather or not superman even exists in the universe of this movie aside from a reference
I know this dumb joke gets thrown out alot. But I'm actually dead serious. I really want to see a full LP of this.
I enjoyed this game. These nitpicks are a tad extreme. I understand it isn't the best but complaining a beat em up plays like a beat em up.
SHAQ HAND is looking good
Can't wait for the full LP!
Marcus didnt sacrifice himself for the black race to do this, HE HAD A DREAM DAMMIT
I like how at 10:07 Pat cries out "What the fuck!" at the dudes clipping into each other, and it was just enough of a distraction to miss the dude obviously spawning in on the left
"Wait I can't hear you over you beating up those rice farmers"
No boss fights against Chuck, Kenny and Vlade Divac. I've never been so disappointed.
did the Best Friends want that Juicy Shaq Meat?
"ShaqFu... Yup" has to be one of the best, most uninterested intros I've heard in a while.
Why was this game funded in the first place.
Because there's an infinite amount of money available for projects referencing things that people in their late 20s and early 30s remember from their childhoods, regardless of quality. It's also why Family Guy is still on the air, despite never being funny or insightful or pleasing to look at
Because.
Because I like Shaq, and I could tell it was gonna be an enjoyable bad from the get-go.
I wasn't let down.
Well, this is America. And the northerner and South parts too. And I guess the.. other countries of persons that helped fund this. And....dreams. This was harder to type than I originally thought.
The same reason people were willing to give money to Sony Pictures for The Emoji Movie during it's theater run; GOT TO KNOW. I know that's why I backed it.
The amount of pain that they had playing this game makes me want a full LP lol
