but in all seriousness that one animation that actually looked like it was in-game was very clunky.

Just thought about this, this game could be good if they go like the ninja gaiden kind of open world type game,
which from the trailer they are going that way.
Still buying it

EDIT: found an in-game screenshot that makes it seem like there going that way.

I also meant that the lighting looks like that of Street Fighter IV.

funding met, its happening
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014- ... nding-goal
Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn has managed to beat its crowd-funding goal on the campaign's final day and secure a release for PC, PlayStation 3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and Wii U.

1
Basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal and developer Big Deez Productions asked for $450,000 (£260k) in donations to help develop the bizarre beat-'em-up sequel.

The game's Indiegogo campaign hit its target last night with just hours to spare, and after a couple of last-minute perks were added (someone donated $4000 to have lunch and a game of basketball at Shaq's house).

Six people paid $250 to receive a personalised voicemail from Shaq, while another person paid $20,000 to eat a meal with Shaq at a local restaurant (he'll even pick up the tab).

Think that's expensive? Someone paid $35,000 for Shaq to travel to their party and play a DJ set (plus get a copy of the game, t-shirt and poster).



Now go fund Amplitude HD or :banned:

I'm surprised to see that there's so much interest in reviving a title that gamers once pledged to destroy every last copy of. I expect I'll give it a miss, but for those who are keen on it...good stuff and good luck with it, I guess.

They were destroying it not because it was terrible but because it was too beautiful. Too beautiful that a physical representation of it degrades the nature of its beautiful existence.
