The aptly titled Taboo is a tarot card simulator, carelessly employing the forbidden arts of divination and possibly necromancy in order to answer those burning mysteries of the universe like “Will Jack Thompson ever get laid?” or “When will Duke Nukem Forever be finished?” (The answer to both of these questions, at least according to my male roommate Natas, is an emphatic “never.”) Dare to play it even once and you’ll quickly realize that this so-called “game,” despite bearing Nintendo’s protective Seal of Quality, was obviously hewn from naught but the crimson hand of Satan himself – and believe me, I know a thing or two about Satan.

In a nutshell, the premise of Rare's Taboo - The Sixth Sense: type in a well thought-out and insightful question and get mindless gibberish back. Taboo claims to be able to see your future via tarot card fortune telling. How drawing upon a machine with the processing capabilities of a peanut accomplishes this is beyond me.
