Title: True Crime: Streets of L.A. (Video Game)
Post by: 40oz GRApHire on May 26, 2003, 09:48:08 AM

To capture the urban vibe of Los Angeles for its upcoming True Crime: Streets of L.A. video game, Activision, Inc., has partnered with L.A.-based Vybe Squad, LLC to produce a groundbreaking soundtrack that features more original songs from the biggest names in West Coast hip-hop than any game soundtrack ever released. Tha Eastsidaz, Suga Free, Westside Connection, E-40, Eazy-E Jr., Coolio, KAM, Bug Hutch (ATL) are among the many artists currently set to submit tracks for the True Crime: Streets of L.A. album, with other headlining talent to be announced.

In addition, the soundtrack will feature licensed tracks, including select classics. The tracks will provide the backdrop to action-packed car chases, shootouts, on-foot pursuits and hand-to-hand combat featured in the highly anticipated mission-based driving and action video game.

Bigg Swoop, President and CEO of Vybe Squad Records added, "This video game has all the action of a hardcore action film, Ain't nothing soft about it and Ain't nothing soft about the soundtrack."

In True Crime: Streets of L.A., players assume the role of rogue Elite Operations Division (E.O.D.) operative Nick Kang, a no-holds-barred badass, whose brutal reputation and lethal skills have landed him the nasty task of taking down the Chinese Triad and Russian Mafia cartel that has turned the City of Angels into a war zone. Take part in explosive gun battles with double fisted firepower, devastating martial arts brawls, and high-speed shootouts across 250 square miles of accurately recreated L.A. In car or on-foot, the unique branching missions include locating hostile witnesses, searching for case-cracking clues, taking out evasive informants and busting the heavily armed and deadly bad guys. True Crime: Streets of L.A. will be available this fall for the PlayStation2 computer entertainment system, the Xbox video game system from Microsoft and the Nintendo Game Cube and has not yet been rated by the ESRB.
