Barkley 2 - an RPG Sequel to Barkley Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden

Best RPG I've ever played on the PC is getting a sequel. If you haven't played the first one, do yourself a service and play it! It's essentially a sequel to the movie "Space Jam" and begins with Charles Barkley performing a Chaos Dunk that has the destructive power of a nuclear bomb and destroys New York and makes basketball banned. Michael Jordan leads a fascist anti-b-ball militarized police force in the game and the currency is neo-shekels. The mechanics are a cross between Final Fantasy 7 and NBA Jam. Also, the story in the game is canon.

They just did a mac port of the first one too. You don't need to know anything about basketball to play it (I probably learned more about basketball from it than anything.) Best edutainment software I've used.

this looks awesome. I haven't played a proper game in probably about 10 years but I'm tempted.

The fact that this exists tickles me endlessly.

And maybe someday--when I have slightly more free time--I'll devote my life to it.
