Another mid-2000s urban gangster shooter that despite it's obvious flaws is a fascinating game of it's time. Games like this will never be made again, so it's always fun looking back on them. Not the greatest game, but I do enjoy it for what it is...and it's definitely a throwback! The dialogue is "so bad it's good" and I did chuckle at some of the one-liners the NPCs say. There's also bonus objectives which give some replay value to unlock multiplayer items and whatnot. The game caused major controversy and nearly got banned due to being able to gun down cops and glorifying gang violence...then again which crime game doesn't do that? A bizarre title indeed.

Haha, I remember working on this game. I was the user-interface programmer. The publisher had a deal with an energy drink company that literally sent us case loads of Crunk every week. By the way, this is the same development studio (Avalanche) that recently brought us Hogwarts Legacy. Many of the same people are still there and involved in both titles. Dig it!

i honestly didnt see this as a "bad" game. The company that developed this title did pretty well with the resources they had available. The story was below mid and the gameplay could've definitely used some polishing but it's overall a decent shooter. My friends and I have always looked back on this game with good gesture and it was PS2 classic in most of their opinions.

I recently played this game, its pretty decent the combat was enjoyable,only real problem I had was the story felt rushed near the end,could have had more missions.

Yea, I remember beating this game and thinking “that was it?”.

That ending deserves a sequel with Darnell grown up and in the streets with his pops either calling shots in the back or just fully retired on the low offering Darnell any advice on escaping law and the ops. Mendoza will be the main villain

This game was so awesome the company should do a remastered version of this and I bet this would be awesome to play on the newest consoles these Days

It's definitely a lower budget than some of there other games, unless it all went on the music lol. The game's actually a solid 3-4 hour experience (without editing) as you'll die a few times, especially on harder difficulties, and take a while to discover some of the bonus objectives. :)

Yo bruh seeing this damn cover on the thumbnail had me in like 100 different emotions all in one. Instantly remembered playing this hella long ago but I was also thinkin is this an updated version? They made a new one or something? Either way it led to the discovery of ya channel and I definitely digg the content bruh keep it up I love thes throwbacks. They need to bring back these kinda games and make em even better and add to em. This would be a dope remastered and updated game. I wish they did that wit The Warriors too . Idk these people in charge of entertainment these days ain't really got no vision. It's always sequels now wit barley any changes for the most part. This instanty reminded me of hella old classics . Streets of NY, Streets of LA, Def Jam NY , Def Jam Vendetta, Street Hoops, Bulletproof, Jet Li Rise To Honor, Bully , The Warriors, Nba Streets 2, Street Hops V3, all that heat bruh haha

I had heard about it before (mainly for being terrible), but I never expected to hear anyone mention this game in general, let alone in real life. He described it as "Max Payne but without bullet time", and weirdly enough I kinda see where that's coming from. The gameplay looks like an infinitely more janky Max Payne 2.
