More Mario, dusty desperados, and the return of Shaq-Fu
With E3 right on the horizon, the tidal wave of major releases we’ve been enduring for what seems like months has finally subsided. With companies focused on their big press events, you’ll finally have some time to sit down with that huge pile of games that’s lurking in your room. At least until the E3 announcements are made, at which point you’ll be grabbing for your credit card to pre-order the next wave of greatness.

It was 1994; the game starved masses clamored for something new, something fresh. “We need a revolution, not just another game!” they shouted. “I see” the EA executive said. “Perhaps this is the revolution you so crave?” he yelled, pulling back an enormous velvet curtain. There it was, glowing in all its majesty, Shaq-Fu.

Hail!
