Are you a karaoke fan but wish the music selection was a little more hip? Or ever wanted to try karaoke but singing just isn't your forte? Well then the following new game release just might be of interest. Def Jam Interactive is releasing a Hip-Hop karaoke game to add to it's infamous franchise. The game will be titled Def Jam Rapstar.

Eminem Talks DJ Hero

In the Summer time I did a pretty in depth piece about this game and I thought it would be cool to hear Eminem's thoughts on things. Plus, the game hit retailers today and I felt it only right to give it a little promotion. This is the first hip-hop themed game to drop in a minute. But what does Em think? Click play and find out.

I think that the game looks cool. Not my style but I like the way the turntables are designed and what not. Also, I think it's hot that Em plans to use it not just for entertainment purposes but also to step things up as a performer. I'd love to see Em getting busy on the tables at a concert. And it would probably be very interesting to see him do some deejay battles in a couple of years too, lol. If you want to cop the game it's available now at all local game stores. The prices are $119.99 for the normal version and $199.99 for the special edition with the Eminem and Jay Z material. Kind of pricey, might want to wait until some holiday specials come around. -MinM

50 Cent: Blood On The Sand Package

Way back when, I wrote a piece about 50 Cent's new upcoming video game, Blood On The Sand. Well I ran across this on a site and I thought it looked pretty good. Gave me a new respect for the game, kind of makes me want to save up the dough for it, lol. So take a look for yourselves......

Surprisingly, looks hot right? I like the fact that it is not just another typical hood storyline and ish. They actually put in some work to make it different. And you gotta love 50's shameless self promotion with all the new music extras and stuff. He's slick, he knows gamers get caught up in the soundtrack and then want the music. The man can get money if nothing else. The game hits stores February 24th, 2009 for X-box 360 and PS3. -MinM
