B-Boy soundtrack to feature Black Eyed Peas, James Brown, more

The upcoming PS2/PSP breakdancing game, B-Boy will feature a pretty great licensed soundtrack when it comes to America later this summer. Touted as the first-ever competitive breakdancing game, B-Boy promises to offer over 800 motion-captured moves. B-boy legends Crazy Legs and the Rock Steady Crew helped contribute to the production, and 22 venues can be found on the disc, including Red Bull: King of the Ring, Freestyle Sessions, UK B-Boy Championships and IBE.

The soundtrack will feature 35 hip-hop and funk tracks, including The Black Eyed Peas' "Bringing It Back", James Brown's "Get On The Good Foot", Cypress Hill's "The Phuncky Feel One" and Eric B and Rakim's "Don't Sweat The Technique." It certainly looks like they're definitely trying to impress the breakdancing audience with this one -- will they succeed?

This game is a day one purchase for me. I have wanted this game since it came out in Europe, two years ago. We really are getting this game late, I wonder if they changed anything besides the cover art? If you do not like dancing I guess you will not like it but B-boy is my kinda game.

The pandering subject material is equaled only by the absolutely horrible box art. Truly the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on the PSP.

you guys talk shit about it, if you don't even get the concept of the game or bboyin (breakdance)

Its actually worth playing but its hard for everyone to get into. People who actually do the thing would be rewarded with all the fun.

Thats a nice list of songs Rudy, now i feel like giving it a chance. But the Black eyed peas are just annoying, so i hope there's an option to exclude songs...
