Posted 10 May 2004 at 20:00 by Ashley Jones
Get On Da Mic is Eidos' new hip-hop career simulation game, possibly a first off it's kind.
The title, being developed by A2M and Highway 1 Productions, will allow you to rap your way to stardom, bling-bling and all. Along the way you will face horrible agents, screaming fans and the ever-powerful producers.
"Get On Da Mic immerses players in the alluring world of becoming a hip hop celebrity," said Paul Baldwin, Eidos North America's vice president of marketing. "A2M has secured one of the most robust music soundtracks available in any music game featuring over 40 tracks. The game also boasts a non-confining freestyle mode allowing players to show off their lyrical skills and pave their own paths to fame among their friends."
"We are excited that A2M's remarkable grasp of hip-hop lifestyle and culture has been perfectly matched with Eidos' impressive ability to deliver consumers ground-breaking titles," said Michael Betti, co-founder of Hwy1 Productions.
Eidos are expecting a big success, as they are already planning the sequel Get On Da Floor. Expect more news tomorrow and during the rest of E3.
