The worst game intro ever: ACCLAIM Juiced.

No Alchy I was not wanred of anything and what I say is true. Who do you think is going to buy that game. Redneck Avenger or Black Bolt ? We all see that it's obviously aimed for "kids of this age" especially in the US and is failing.

That pretty much sum of the idea of the entire state of European gaming. Cough hackSudeki hackkough :-( and a way to go to kill what could have been the new Secret Of Mana.

 

"I couldn't really give a shit cause if you don't like my shit kiss my grits how about this."

Kiss my grits!?!? Man thats fresh. I don't think i've heard that phrase since 1983.

 

what he said

:banghead::shrug:

 

Look for yourself. Half way down the thread you start talking about a "jew part of town" and assembler gives you a slap on the wrist.

It seems redundant to me, but since you appear to be disagreeing: white suburban kids do buy chavy street racer games too. I'd be surprised if they didn't account for the majority of sales, they almost certainly would in the UK. These games hardly sum up European gaming, either - where did Need for Speed Underground come from? For that matter the whole rap/hip-hop thing?

And how could Juiced possibly have anything to do with a new Secret of Mana - a series of RPG games made in Japan? You do realise that there was a new Secret of Mana game released for DS about a month ago?

 

You beat me I stoped at 1:58. That's got to be the most... I don't know, it was so bad. That's bad meaning bad, not bad meaning good.

 

Oh that is classic!

I would have loved to have been in the room when that video was pitched to the Acclaim team.

Anyway thanks for the vid ASSEMbler.

 

what the... people got paid real money to do this? by whom?

 

UK folk need to leave rap alone.....

 

ahahahahahahahahahahhahahahaha!!!

If it weren't for the inclusion of the semi-modern cars, I'd have sworn that this video was something out of the mid-1980's! Lol, absolutely horrible!

 

Alchy I gues your right after witnessing that wanna be Street Gang Football game with the stereotyping music and the various games.Still in America no reall race fan would buy this game and go home happy unless they are planing to extract the contents and add the racers to another game. By that a recent movie depicted Japan in the second Movie about Two fast too furious and is basically the same thing with this game.

Sudeki was to be the new Secret Of Mana and I just wanted to bring this up since they screwed over the voices and various contents which lead to the games unpopularity.

Also I would respond but that was not a warning just a responce towards what I said.

 

"Yo, I'm from the East Coast..."

She must mean Dover or Ipswitch, then.

 

I believe I have found my theme song.

 

Off with their heads!!!

That's the Assembler that we all know and love, it's good to have you back.

 

Apparently some people are so hard up for cash that they are willing to whore themselves out in the most demeaning ways possible.

Soooo, I paused it at 2 minutes and I am about to go watch the rest, but I have a question.. What made them think that this 'rapper' was qualified to play this role in the intro? I mean, she has absolutely no skill what so ever and her accent really shows through far to much for anyone in the US to take this even semi seriously.

I guess I'm leaning toward racial stereotyping. It seems that just because she is black, they thought that it would be well received by the modern day rap/hip hop community.

*Edit again: Sorry for the double post. watching the video kind of distracted me a bit.

 

Not that I'd want to defend the lass (or the terrible music), but why do you assume she'd try and fake an American accent? Brits make rap music too you know...

 

I didn't mean that she should fake an american accent. I meant that almost zero american people are going to accept that as rap.

For the record, I don't know what you consider The Streets, but I like them quite a bit.

 

I think the absolutely dreadful CG is colouring peoples views a bit much here.

Shystee is a well respected emcee. And grime isn't meant to be like American rap. Grime and its instrumental cousin Dubstep are an evolution of Drum & Base, the first original genre of music to originate in the UK.

Dizzee Rascal has sold a fair few records in the US. They're definately interested. Dubstep is starting to garner a fairly healthy international scene as well. Frankly, proper independant music is a nice change from all that gangster bullshit that dominates the US charts. All their better artists like MF Doom never sell more than 100k.

 

Molloy has already written everything the uninitiated need to know about the UK rap scene, which has many unique sub-genres (such as grime) that aim for the same market Acclaim was clearly targetting. Of course, the "chav" phenomenon and Britain's growing knife/terrorism culture echoes the darker side of what has already been experienced in the US, but despite not being a huge fan I have no reason to knock what Juiced tried to represent - even though it's unlikely such styles will be placed next to other more successful and well known fashions in retrospect over the next few generations!
