Over at MTV’s Multiplayer blog, a top 10 list of hip-hop video games was posted today. No surprise that my fellow Staten Island homeboys, The Wu-Tang Clan, topped the list with their Shaolin Style video game.
Top 10:
1. Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style (PS1)
2. Def Jam (series spanning PS2, PS3, Gamecube, Xbox, Xbox 360, PSP)
3. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PS2, Xbox, PC)
4. Marc Ecko’s Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure (PS2, Xbox, PC)
5. 50 Cent: Bulletproof (PS2, Xbox, PSP)
6. PaRappa the Rapper (PS1, PSP)
7. NBA Ballers (PS2, Xbox, Gamecube)
8. Get On Da Mic (PS2)
9. MTV Music Generator (series spanning PS1, PS2, Xbox, PC)
10. Fear and Respect (Canceled)
If this game had been released, Snoop Dogg would have voiced the lead character, and it would have been written and directed by John Singleton (Boyz N the Hood, Poetic Justice, 2 Fast 2 Furious). The story centered on being a gangster in South Central L.A., trying to gain the respect of other gangs. That sounds like the M.O. of half the hip-hop industry circa 1998. So what if it never came out… it’s still better than “Shaq Fu.”
