One of the best parts of a video game is the ending, but who has the time to go back and play through every game? Let me introduce you to Game Over: The Early Years, the weekly show where we dive into classic games and spoil both their stories and endings. From the biggest hits to obscure classics, we're taking a look at some of the best and most memorable conclusions in video game history.

June is just around the corner, and with it comes the year's most anticipated sequel. No, I'm not talking about that new Jurassic World movie or The Incredibles 2, but rather Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn. To help celebrate the upcoming follow-up, we're going to take a trip back to a time when putting Shaquille O'Neal in a fighting game actually made sense. Turn away now if you don't want to know what happens next, because today I'm spoiling the story and ending of Shaq Fu on the Sega Genesis. This is Game Over: The Early Years.


Still want more endings? Then I recommend you discover 23 Endings: The Early Years, the holiday series that ran during the 2017 holiday season. We cover Ninja Gaiden, Street Fighter II, Super Mario Bros. 2, Ghostbusters, Golden Axe, Metroid, Double Dragon, Flashback, Final Fight and many more!

And while you're just clicking on stuff at random, I suggest you head over to the Defunct Games YouTube page and subscribe to the channel. We're posting new episodes of Game Over: The Early Years every Monday, along with brand new game reviews throughout the week.
