Activision, Inc. announced today that Snoop Dogg, the “Dogg Father”
of hip-hop, is an unlockable, playable character in the company’s upcoming
True Crime: Streets of L.A. videogame. When players unlock
his character in “Dogg Patrol” mode they can play as Snoop
and roll through the streets in a custom convertible, complete with hydraulics,
while looking for random crimes to solve and criminals to take down. True Crime:
Streets of L.A will ship to retail outlets on November 4, 2003 and will be available
for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, the Xbox video game system
from Microsoft and Nintendo GameCube. The game has been rated “M”
(“Mature” – Blood and Gore, Mature Sexual Themes, Strong Language

True Crime: Streets of LA delivers the deepest combination of high-speed driving,
martial arts fighting and double-fisted shooting ever burned into one game.
Gamers take on the role of Nick Kang, a bad ass Elite Operations Division operative,
tasked with taking out the merciless Russian and Chinese crime syndicates terrorizing
the City of Angels. Fans race through 240 square miles of L.A. listening to
an epic West Coast Hip Hop soundtrack provided by Vybe Squad Records that includes
50 original songs from heavy weights Snoop Dogg, Westside Connection, Warren
G., Coolio and more. Snoop Dogg Screens below. . .
