Well from my point of view I thank god they did. I would hate to have to play this game for as long as I have/did and will and have to listen to some wack rock band or torturous country music.

I LOVE 2K's choices on artists that they use. Because the sports division isn't mainstream I love how they don't use as many, if any, mainstream artists. Guys like Dan the Automator, PB Wolf & Z-Trip really give the games their own "personalities".

Dead Prez and Rakim FTW.

Yea, I think the meaning behind the rappers was they were all old school rappers, and All Pro featured all "old school" players.

It was a good idea, but they didnt flesh it out enough. Or advertise it enough.

I put in ESPN 2K5 the other day, and I was like WOW, this game has GREAT music. Then I realized it was all of my own music. I ripped a TON of songs for the game and had it totally tricked out with beats like 'you can't bring me down' and 'come on feel the noize'. What a difference the music makes when playing a game.

that one of the best features ever in a sports video game

I think blanket statementing that rappers were used to sell this game is not a wise move considering that Rush's Tom Sawyer is the main song used.

all the commercials/promotions used rappers (noobs see link). did they reach their target audience (gamers)? i think not. how many rap music lovers do you know that bought this game?

Most videogames use rap. I don't see the big deal or the point of complaining about it, really.

Thanks too for pointing out links to newbs like me. :thumbsup:

You must be the cool message board tough guy? You guys are always so cool and superior. :cool:
