Summary
We entered the desert… and somehow had a good time. On this week’s ShameCube, Jared, Ky, and Ben dive into The Scorpion King on the Nintendo GameCube — a game we fully expected to roast, but ended up… kinda enjoying? The boys break down the combat, the goofy charm, and the retro jank that somehow works in the game’s favour. Is it perfect? Absolutely not. Is it way better than it has any right to be? Somehow, yes. Tune in for unexpected fun, retro nostalgia, and the rare ShameCube pick that didn’t completely destroy us.
