6. Michael Jackson In Ready to Rumble Round 2
Being a cultural icon, it's understandable that the King of Pop has found his way into a number of video games over the years. In the case of Space Channel 5, it made perfect sense, considering that one of the primary things that Michael Jackson was known for was dancing. We all know the other one, but I'm not here to make the obvious jokes about Michael Jackson's basket weaving hobby. It's been done to death. I don't, however, recall a lot of reports on his jabbing ability. Were the developers making the implication that we would want to live vicariously through Mr. Jackson's gloved fists? Or was their intention to make him the opponent, so we could pummel him about the head and neck with Afro Thunder? Seems unfair considering the sanctions that would have to be broken just to make such a fight possible. After all, Mike only weighs 125 pounds and has a major reach disadvantage. In fact, they would almost have to put in Hilary Clinton just so there would be another celebrity in his weight division. You may think this is just a call back to the last entry, but no, thats actually what they did. Yeah, Bills in there too.
