Description
As a thug beaten to the brink of death you have started your mission of revenge. You want to bury those bastards six feet under for what they have done to you, but to do so you need to start your own gang and recruit right from the streets. If a new gang member turns out to be a punk, blast him, and make room for new ones. Move up in the world, but watch out for the Kingpin, eventually you're going to have to take him on.

Somewhere in the past that never crossed paths with the future lies the world of the Kingpin. Burned out buildings and urban decay are the landscape. Local gangs roam the streets, protecting their turf and scooping out opportunities.

Recruit a gang of thugs and rule the streets, snuff out rivals with a single head-shot and watch them bleed to death. Or put them on fire and watch them suffer. You will deliver an extremely brutal and violent death to those who messed you up. Kill everyone who stands in your way and become new Kingpin - crime lord of every thief, murderer and dirty thug in the city.
  • Bloody, brutal, swearing-heavy combat - one of the first truly adult-oriented games
  • Impressive graphics and AI for its time
  • An Original Soundtrack by Cypress Hill

REVIEW, hidden gem for the action only

I say hidden gem for action only as everything else is terrible, push through all the roughness especially the swearing which I don't mind but geesh when every second word is MFkr LOL gets tiredsome real quick, graphics is and always was outdated and story line is there but well you know the 90's gaming didn't make too much sense just do forget story so to say was mentallity back then. WITH SAYING THAT, the action as in the shooting action WAS EPIC FUN and is defiantly worth pushing through the rest of the pain of a poorly executed game but that gun fighting was for me SURPRISING and I am glad I pushed on past the pain to get to the jelly goodness of toasting all those Gangsta's hehehehe and I was suprisingly satisified with this and the ending too.
