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?

dwarf fortress has dolomite deposits

that's pretty close right?

HEY STAMPEDE, HOW ABOUT A POEM?

But then Sup Forums would complain about women with afros again

NARC I guess?

>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

there was a Starsky and Hutch videogame

...

That'd be one-note gimmick shit, the game would have to be good as well or it's just another Matt Hazzard.

Makes me laugh every time. Thank you.

Don't forget Keith David, senpai.

This movie is pure gold

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.

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

how much would some cocaine and a dolemite box set cost? we should get a kickstarter going

>tfw no game set in the 70's where you play as a cop who kills people by day and discos at night

Pam is hot and Coffy is the best blaxploitation movie. fite me

More like 'mexploitation', but I feel the comparison holds up in many aspects.

Wasn't that pretty much Wet?

>we gotta get a kickstarter going to buy some cocaine

i guess there was this too
i thought that was meant to be grindhouse

it's okay as long as the cocaine isn't for us

Oh yeah, my bad.

House of the Dead Overkill

More grindhouse than blaxploitation, but I supposed it's the closest we're gonna get.

wasn't that grindhouse too? it even has the grain filter, doesn't it? the dialogue certainly matches exploitation stuff though
