It's hard out there for a pimp!

Really haven't heard much about the launch titles for the Ouya. But this one sounds sort of interesting and unique. A cross with Norse mythology and 70's funk? And it's a rythym based game? You have my attention. Don't know much about it yet,but the artwork made me think...

He's a player! Who else would have shag carpet and fuzzy dice in their dungeon? But the main giveaway was the car. Now that's a pimp car right there. Guess I shouldn't talk. I once drove a Lincoln Continental Town Coupe. It was green and plush inside. Nearly 20 feet long! Drove like a dream,yet handled like a naval vessel on wheels. Huge gas guzzling beast but very comfy.

This was the first thing that came to mind. Wish they had made a game about him.

Shaft would have been a good one for a game. He was one bad mutha. But on the other side of the law from Super Fly. The music from the two films is great. Hope they use stuff like that in Soul Fjord.

See what I mean? You can't touch it for gaudy luxury. It's a chrome covered monster!

"Shit,playa...you ain't got nothing on my car! To hell with chrome....that's gold plated you seeing there. The interior is done in real zebra hide. Know how hard that is to find?"

Hank is not impressed by it. Take your hos and your ugly car back to the OKC,Alabaster!

Cleveland could show them how it's done.....don't hate the playa,hate the game!

What I'm listening to today.........

that game does look amazing. I guess I need an Ouya!

For 100 bucks I know I'll take a chance on it. Gotta be something worthwhile to play on it. If it takes off it could be something developers will flock to.

I'm looking forward to the Ouya. A rythym game with funk music sounds awesome! Why hasn't that been done before anyway?

05/03/2013 at 04:46 PM

Funky times ahead! I know,you'd think someone would have come up with it before.

Man, the golden age of Blaxpoitation

They don't make em' like that anymore. Except for Black Dynamite,of course. I remember Blacula and the sequel Scream,Blacula,Scream. And Foxy Brown! Pam Grier is hot.

Pam seriously is.

Anyway I like the I'm gonna get you sucka is a great spoof of that era, and i'll watch anything with Hugie Bear. Though that era is suspect to say the least but we can look back at it, it had it's benefits.

My favorite part of I'm Gonna Git You Sucka was the part with the pimp,played by Antonio Vargas[aka Huggy Bear]. When he won the "Pimp Of The Year" award. And when he got out of jail,too. Came strutting outta there wearing these shoes that were like tiny aquariums,they had fish in them!

Kinda surprised I'm the first one to post this. I know it's not funk/70s, but it IS exactly your blog title. lol

And Three Six Mafia would never be heard from again ... (I don't think that's true, but I certainly have not heard their name in a while). lol

That's exactly where I got that from! I liked that movie,and that song title got stuck in my head from seeing it.
