Hustle Kings: A really perdy Pool game for PSN

by Xav de Matos { Jun 25th 2009 at 7:00PM }

Rack 'em up ladies and gents because Hustle Kings is heading to a PS3 near you. First showcased at E3 2009, the upcoming pool title is planned to hit the PlayStation Network exclusively this winter. Hustle Kings sports "photo-realistic" graphics, up-to 256 online-player game lobbies, YouTube uploading, Trophies and in-game video chat. Virtual pool sharks will be happy to hear the final product will launch with a plethora of game modes, including 8-Ball, Black-Ball (UK 8-Ball), 9-Ball, Trick-Shots and more. Hustle Kings will also support custom music from the XMB, but we're pretty sure you'll only be able to listen to Rick Ross while you play the game. Selecting any other tracks will cause your PS3 to explode ... probably.

Cause rick ross is boss.

Out of all the rappers to choose about hustling you pick Officer Ricky. Why Joystiq?
(let the down voting begin)

What the hell is wrong with Ross?

You must be from the northern states.

I'm from the south and down here we don't listen to cops acting as rappers. Trick Daddy is the boss in Miami not Ross.

Game looks great, I can't wait to see more.

I'm a fan of any game with "photo-realistic" graphics.

This game looks good but I just hope nobody dismisses this game because of the bad rap joke this author made. When some people hear rap and a game mixed together they begin to dislike it for their own reasons. I'm not trying to start a debate or anything but it's the reason why Brutal Legend will get more acceptance by some gamers than a 50 cent game could ever get. Hustle Kings is just a name so let's play games for what they really are, regardless less of what music we personally like or dislike.

PS3Homie @ Jun 26th 2009 4:46AM

^^^ someone wants attention

*sorry I have a life and I don't have time to entertain you, flame war canceled

DonaldTrump @ Jun 27th 2009 1:54AM

just shut up already.

SonyHomie (PSN: superballa123) @ Jun 27th 2009 2:33AM

^^^ You're the one's who's talking BS. You tried to instigate a flame war and nothing happened so plz STFU.

DonaldTrump @ Jun 27th 2009 4:51AM

And who the fuk called you ? All I said was that I can play with Metal not that POS of Hip or rap , ok? It wasn't meant for you or anyone else but to the one who commented You nosy POS, so go shoo! and the flame on was for the few people that still like Rock. Go listen to your soldja boy or w/e and let the grown ups do the typin'

SonyHomie (PSN: superballa123) @ Jun 27th 2009 6:21AM

^^^ It's me you idiot I changed my name, lol. You can listen to anyone you want to, but don't ever think the only rap I have to listen to is solider boy. I only listen to real rappers like 2pac, B.I.G., Nas, Eminem and many others. I listen to some rock and heavy metal like aresomith, metallica , and linking park. It's sad that I have respect enough for your genre to at least give it an honest listen why you turn the channel or turn on the radio and say oh this is what they must be listening to solider boy. Mentioning his name tells me you don't know $hit about the music I listen to. If you noticed soldier boy only sold one mil on his first album and then struggled to make 100,000 copies on his second album. The dude wasn't hot then and he really isn't hot now so why can't you let him go. It's like the last 10 years you guys didn't really have any real bad rappers to talk about but now that you've found one you can't forget him. I'm not saying rap is perfect because there is good and bad in every genre, even yours. If you only listen to rock, cool rock on but I will still listen to rap and nothing is going to change that.

I was just making a reference to a song by Rick Ross called Everyday I'm Hustlin' -- because the game is called Hustle Kings. Pool is a game where many players get hustled. It's a play on words... I said the game looks good in the post but listen to whatever music you want.

So much drama!

@ Xav de Matos

I'm not mad at you or anything it's just that out of all the positive rap references you could of used why use him. A lot of your readers don't know what rap is about and they wouldn't take the time out to go see what it really is. Reading a post like this might be the only time they read about rap and what do they see when they click the link: women, fast cars, and drug dealers. I play pool I know about hustling but some people don't have the slightest clue on what your talking about and may take it in a negative way. I'm glad you took the time out to reply to me, it shows you have actual concern for readers and isn't doing this for the paycheck.
