The last time PSP Fanboy covered B-Boy, Rafael was a bit cynical about the game, thinking it was driven solely by marketing towards the street crowd. This break dancing battle game has you stringing together combinations of acrobatic moves, and (as a New Yorker) I'm really excited about this game. I don't think I really remember seeing a game ever embrace this culture like this one. SCEE has started up a new website outlining the inspiration for the game and gives you a bit of insight into the culture that the game is trying to represent. You'll get some downloads, listen to some good music, and find game footage. What's not to like? Hopefully, SCEA will pick up this game for release outside of Europe as well.[Via PSPro]

It is something nobody has done before (as far as I know). Hey its a lot better idea then that "Get On Da Mic" game.
I think people are jaded about any game being about "Hip Hop" because they think its all about "GaNGStAz" and "AZZ shakin'", etc. I'm not into "Hip Hop" but at least I do know that there are people who do make the genre respectable.

Nope... acrobatic means: "One who is skilled in feats of balance and agility in gymnastics." From what I see, these guys can keep balance and are quite agile. And, no gymnastics doesn't mean wearing tights and doing ballet. Gymanstics: "Complex intellectual or artistic exercises." Yay for dictionaries!

In my defense: the English language is flawed with its usage of prefixes where they shouldn't be implemented. I apologize for any offense Yoon.
