Why is there no vidya parallel to the '70s exploitation era films? Are you telling me no developer has the confidence in their writing to make an over-the-top cop story? That there's no relief their artists can pull off the awful moustaches and shades on the main characters? Don't they think their audio guys can make the cheesy-ass bass guitar-heavy car chase music that sound like a sped-up porno score?
The only games that ever even tried were the Driver series, which is now dead because of publisher fuckery. Won't someone just make a good fucking game out of this shit?
Blake Gray
dwarf fortress has dolomite deposits
that's pretty close right?
Camden Ward
HEY STAMPEDE, HOW ABOUT A POEM?
Brayden Adams
But then Sup Forums would complain about women with afros again
Josiah Clark
NARC I guess?
Levi Wood
>implying it has to be black people

Yes, but there's only ONE black VA in videogames and as good as Phil LaMarr is, he ain't able to voice an entire cast of characters all by himself.

Someone post the Dark Souls lore webm
Asher Bennett
there was a Starsky and Hutch videogame
Brandon Taylor
...
Wyatt Myers
That'd be one-note gimmick shit, the game would have to be good as well or it's just another Matt Hazzard.
Mason Ramirez
Makes me laugh every time. Thank you.
Asher Parker
Don't forget Keith David, senpai.
Isaiah Sanders
This movie is pure gold
Lucas Taylor
The japanese are the only people I trust to make a good blaxpoitation game. Every western dev would be too concerned about political correctness or just plain making sense to do it justice.
Give Suda 51 some coke and a Dolemite boxset and see what he comes up with.
Samuel Jackson
You'd only have to play it up during the cutscenes/dialogue. Supposing the game were open-world, during free-roam you'd just have the soundtrack and the aesthetic, so it wouldn't be overbearing/outstay its welcome. I think pre-GTAV Rockstar could've pulled it off
William Moore
how much would some cocaine and a dolemite box set cost? we should get a kickstarter going
Brody Bailey
>tfw no game set in the 70's where you play as a cop who kills people by day and discos at night
Kayden Bennett
Pam is hot and Coffy is the best blaxploitation movie. fite me
Jacob Stewart
More like 'mexploitation', but I feel the comparison holds up in many aspects.
Juan Rogers
Wasn't that pretty much Wet?
Carson Collins
>we gotta get a kickstarter going to buy some cocaine
Eli Watson
i guess there was this too i thought that was meant to be grindhouse
Nathan Allen
it's okay as long as the cocaine isn't for us
Hunter Miller
Oh yeah, my bad.
Eli Bailey
House of the Dead Overkill
Liam Smith
More grindhouse than blaxploitation, but I supposed it's the closest we're gonna get.
Alexander Nelson
wasn't that grindhouse too? it even has the grain filter, doesn't it? the dialogue certainly matches exploitation stuff though
