Soulja Boy making his gaming debut on the Xbox 360

In a recent interview with the Complex Blog, Soulja Boy revealed plans to release a video game based on himself. Following his inspiring review of the Xbox Live Arcade title Braid and his challenge to find someone who can beat him at Gears of War, Halo 3 or Call of Duty 4, Soulja Boy reportedly sparked the interest of unnamed gaming companies. Having discussed the proposal with his record label, the plans have apparently been given the green light. The game is slated for a 2009 release.

Soulja Boy, famous for his catchy debut single, claimed to have reacted to the news with the words "Oh snaps!". He lists his favourite games as being Gears of War 2, Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto 4, and Madden.

If these "50 cent" type games keep rolling out with no value and start taking over the N. American gaming industry. I'd might as well not game in the next generation.

I might make an exception for Jay Z though because he demands perfection and intelligence.

Agreed. He frustrates me

Another plus one for me. This game will take such a dive.

You know companies don't have good intentions when they want to keep Soulja Boy famous.

Seriously, this is getting to be too much. How is this idiot even famous? His song is stupid, his dance is whatever, he has no substance, he's proved time and time again he's an idiot. WHY do people keep spending money on this loser. Christ sakes i've had about enough of this guy, simple plan's top spot on my "if i had 24 hours to live, i'd kill these people first" list is being challenged with great conviction.

Sounds like you're describing almost every rap "artist" out there. Kudos.

Wrong. Try putting the word 'commercial' in there and you'd be closer to the truth.

What's the game going to be?

See how many times you can remix one song?
#9 simon360 on 08 Dec 2008 - 22:21
I hope this game is a sattire on his life. He doesn't deserve positive publicity for single handedly destroying the music industry, more than anyone else has.

Sorry, but his music has to be the lowest quality and most tasteless I've ever heard. He's full of himself, and I can't stand people like that.

Soulja Boy should be a porn star instead of an artist.

You can't make a game about porn lol

My girlfriend loved this guy's song when we first started dating. I heard it enough that I think I contemplated killing either him or myself more than a few times.

You're still dating this girl, obviously she has culture issues.

She's also a huge fan of the Beatles. She just liked doing the dance for the damn song.

Please no. His music is bad enough, I don't want to experience his "grant theft auto" life style.

I am only going to consider renting this if Soulja Boy can die in said game.

Apple sucks, Microsoft sucks, Neowin sucks, Linux sucks....See what Im doing? Im flaming. Thought that was illegal here on Neowin.

I don't like this guy nor do I like his music but you shouldnt disrespect him if you don't even know him nor can you mean money as easy as him or be as famous. Besides you are breaking Neowin's rules by flaming.
#21.1 njlouch on 09 Dec 2008 - 11:36
but you shouldnt disrespect him

I do disrespect him - based upon the image he projects by his lyrics. It's a massively mysoginistic song, showing a level of disrespect towards women - performing unwanted sexual acts.

You are not understanding the meaning behind the rules, son!
#21.2 bokajinn on 09 Dec 2008 - 11:37
You aren't supposed to flame other users. Much like you are doing in this post.
#21.3 hotdog963al on 09 Dec 2008 - 13:42
Seems like *someone* doesn't understand what flaming is all about.
#22 darkpuma on 09 Dec 2008 - 11:52
Sounds like everyones already voiced all of my thoughts....
PS for all of you who have heard that song too many times, i highly recommend this video:

Me n my girlfriend laughed ourselves to death the first time we saw that

Where did I flame a user in my post? Please tell me and Ill edit it and remove it.

and only users? So Im gonna go ahead and just make a topic that says "**** apple, microsoft and linux"...

Of course that isnt flaming...

Performing unwanted sexual acts? What the
**** does that mean?

You want disrespect towards women or anything else? Search "Necro".

Rap and Video Games have both sunk to a new low...

Maybe I need to quit my normal job as a student and entrepreneur and start making rap songs... If he can do it anyone can :|
