I don't know why but I just can't get into SR2, I've had it for a few years now and I played it maybe a day. My utter contempt for that kind of rap culture stuff in the game just won't let me play and like it. I dunno, but I'm not excited for 3, I'm sure it's just going to be another gangsta style game.
This I never understood. Sometimes a game is just good regardless of the theme.
I normally don?t like the whole post apocalyptic thing. In fact the only post apocalyptic movie I ever really liked was Delicatessen. And yet Fallout 3 is my favorite game of this gen.
I never really got into ?rap culture stuff? either and yet San Andreas is one of my favorite games of all time. It just had a ton of really fun gameplay content.
To tell you the truth, (it?s been a while since I played it but) I don?t really remember much/any ?rap culture stuff? in SR2. Sure you lead a gang but they didn?t seem all that ?gangsta.? Maybe it?s because I re-created Dr Girlfriend or maybe it?s because I don?t associate mass carnage, fecal flinging, car surfing, and bouncing as particularly ?gangsta.? SR3 seems even more absurd: like the 3 stooges started a gang or something.
