Summary
Developed by Freestyle Games, B-Boy allows you to battle through real Hip-Hop break-dancing culture, challenging the best B-Boys in the world on some of the greatest B-Boy stages. If you prove yourself and beat the best B-Boys on the planet, you will be presented with an Adidas sponsorship.
B-Boy is the first breakdancing title made available on the PSP. Thanks to the PSP's wireless functionality, gamers will be able to battle whenever and wherever they want - just as B-Boy competitions were intended. In the B-Boy Life mode, gamers must build up a crew and do battle against 40 real -life B-Boy superstars, including Crumbs, Lillou, Kamel, Ivan 'The Urban Action Figure', Hong10, Mouse and Crazy Legs - the original B-Boy, who is also the game MC and end-of-level boss. The game includes 21 authentic world locations, such as Redbull BC One, UK B-Boy Championships, IBE and Freestyle Sessions. To be the best, gamers must learn, develop and master more than 800 motion-captured moves, taken from the real-life professionals. With an advanced control and animation system, B-Boy allows for full control of power moves, flair-driven combos and stylish freezes.
For those of you who want instant action, the Arcade modes feature one-on-one battles against rival dancers or multiplayer face-offs which use the PSP's wireless functionality. B-Boy also lets players create, customise (winning battles allows you to kit out your dancer with the latest Adidas clothing) and upgrade their character. With more than 40 licensed Hip-Hop and classic funk tracks, mixed and scratched by in-game DJs, you would be forgiven in believing that you were actually at a real B-Boy event.
