Wu-Tang: Taste the Pain

Action Game from Activision, Inc., by Paradox Development

3D fighting game featuring hip-hop band, the Wu-Tang Clan. It was released in the US with the title 'Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style'.

You choose from nine characters, each with their own fighting style, selection of moves and weaponry. Weapons include swords and chains. The game includes a significant amount of gore.

The game offers a selection of options. For the single player there is a training option, as well as a good Story Mode (involving the progression through 36 chambers, or skill levels), or you can opt for single matches against the computer. Alternatively, two people can fight it out on the same console, or up to four via multi-tap.

The game's control system is effective and there are numerous combos to master. The graphics are generally good. As might be expected, numerous musical samples from the Wu-Tang Clan are incorporated.
