What’d you think?: If this game is good for anything, it’s for showing how standards for decency have shifted over time. This game was famously never released after getting an AO rating from the ESRB, for extreme violence and sexually suggestive content. But there’s no sex, just (very) fetishy costumes, and the violence is tame by today’s standards. In 2018, this maybe pulls a T rating. The actual fighting in it is godawful, too. Basically four players are racing each other to Fill Up A Meter (one of the most Video Games of all tasks) and upon doing so they then become invincible, and get to violently kill the next opponent they hit, and the fight starts anew with 3 players. Zzzzz.
