this game sounds sooooo cool!!
its out in england in a couple of days so i am  gonna look into getting it.
i think its gonna play a bit like the warriors, in the way of fighting.
heres what gameplay say about it:


In a world where graffiti has been banned and freedom of expression has been suppressed by a tyrannical city government, an unlikely hero rises to win back his neighbourhood and become an urban legend of the city of New Radius. Play as Trane, a "toy" (beginner) graffiti artist with the street-smarts, athletic prowess and vision necessary to become an "All City King," the most reputable of all graffiti artists. The sport of graffiti flows through his veins as he risks his life navigating vertical landscapes while battling rival crews, a corrupt Mayor and the city's Civil Conduct Keepers (CCK) all in an effort to reach the sweet spots of New Radius where a well-placed tag brings respect and reputation.

In your quest to become a legendary graffiti artist, you realise that an oppressive Mayor has a stranglehold on the city of New Radius, and you must use all of your high-wire graffiti talents to expose him and set the city free.

The story's "Get In, Get Up and Get Out" gameplay mechanic offers gamers an arsenal of swift sneak and street fighting abilities to GET IN restricted areas of New Radius and battle through the city's rough streets; the dexterity and agility needed to scale any object, GET UP and place graffiti tags, spreading the message of rebellion; and the ingenuity to evade, escape and GET OUT.

sounds cool if you like that kind of stuff!!!

I heard about that game and it is nice to me. I wouldn't say its realted to the warriros. Also it kinda fits into the rap games coming out with makes it a little bit boring to me.

I read in Hyper (game magazine) they had to put in the expossing of the mayor as a fraud or whatever so it wasn't just illegal tagging all over the place. But it seems like a really good game, it's meant to have a good soundtrack to fit in with the game. So I will get it as soon as it's available here in Australia Feb 17th (tomorrow)  :o I just realised that  :oops:
The full title of the game is "Mark Ecko's Getting Up: contents under pressure" just about as long as "Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game Of The Movie".  :lol:
