Fans of fighting games and Snoop Dogg (also known as Snoop Lion) are finally going to get a game with both of their loves rolled up into one! 505 Games and Echo Peak, a new developer based out of the UK, are collaborating on Way of the Dogg, a rhythm-based fighting game. According to the official website, Way of the Dogg stars a character named America Jones (AJ), who is a fighter faced with many personal challenges. Snoop leads the way and helps train AJ to ”find the beat that drives the fight” and learn the “Way of the Dogg.” Gameplay will consist of players matching the beats of popular Snoop Dogg hits to combat their opponents. It is unclear if the gameplay will feature a joint multiplayer mode (OK, that one was a reach.) More info at link...

Bolded would be preferable. Underlined reminds me of Def Jam: Icon, which was awful

 

[ramoisdead]

I wonder if it'll be like that Snoop Dogg (refuse to say "Lion") gif where you press a button once he completes a clockwise motion and then back.

 

[Frankenstrat]

Damn, forgot about that. Was it really that bad?

 

[bishoptl]

Damn, forgot about that. Was it really that bad?

Yes. Yes, it truly was. Especially when compared to the godlike titles before it, Vendetta and FFNY.

 

[Slayven]

Yes. Yes, it truly was. Especially when compared to the godlike titles before it, Vendetta and FFNY.

I know you would work on some DLC to rep your boy Drake

It is the same game. Coming to PSN too.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Yes.

 

[Spinluck]

The guy holding the cigarette is clearly doing an Illuminati hand sign.

Game should sell millions now.

 

[JCreasy]

I wonder if Snoop is somewhere high right now . . . any chance of that you think?

 

[Frankenstrat]

I wonder if Snoop is somewhere high right now . . . any chance of that you think?

If he's not with his kids or coaching his football teams, then probably.

 

[SousedLouse]

Rhythm-based fighting game
"blaxploitation inspired narrative of conspiracy and betrayal"
smartphone-compatible
"revenge Sierra" (which is pretty damn close to revengeance)
What I assume is netplay
AMERICA JONES

Fighting Game of the Year, I can feel it in my bones.

 

[Meccanical]

The most important thing in this thread is that I just learned that Snoop changed from a Dogg to a Lion?

Wat.
