"A reason to get an Xbox"

A game being released later this year called

"Bad Mutha Truckers"

You are a truck driver racing through Southern America.
With Rednecks, corrupt Sheriffs and other assorted Hillbilly folk vying to stop your racing exploits in a big 18-wheeler truck.

"Big Mutha puts you behind the wheel of a big rig, where you battle other unpleasant truckers for road supremacy. As if taking it to another 18-wheeler weren't enough to get your adrenaline pumping, Big Mutha features a plethora of potential casualties. Rednecks, biker gangs, corrupt sheriffs, and cyborgs all challenge your mastery of the stick shift. Okay, maybe not cyborgs, but you never know about some of those craftier rednecks.

Empire Interactive will publish the title this winter in Europe, with an American release to follow shortly after. CEO of Empire Interactive, Ian Higgins said, "Big Mutha Truckers... perfectly compliments our current line up." It should be noted that none of Empire's other releases include big trucks or rednecks."

There are piccies of this game on www.gamesradar.com somewhere amongst the news.

Here are the reasons as to why I hope to get an X-box in the future:

-Massive Hard Drive, so there's no need to spend extra on Memory Cards!
-Games like Halo and Buffy can't be found on any other console!
-It's another alternative system for GTA 3 - and it should have even better graphics!
-And there will also be many other top titles coming out in the future - including The Matrix!

I'm not really interested in it's power and specs that much, but you have to admit they're impressive.
I'm not getting them now because the GameCube is first on my list, and i'm also confident that a price-drop will come.

1 out of 1 reason to get an X-box.
WOW!

I'd buy it just for that title. :D

Not by me.
In one of my many underated posts called "Gaming for Rednecks, Courtesy of Hillbilly Interactive" in FOG Prime, i did:

"HILLBILLY JOE: LONG DISTANCE TRUCKER: Join Hillbilly Joe as he races through the barren landscapes of the American redneck districts. Choose to drive in convey with other rednecks (over the internet or LAN if you have access—but you rednecks probably haven’t) and communicate over CB radio, or race rival hick truckers, aiming to deliver your cargo quicker.
Cargos include kegs of moonshine, crocodile skins and many more hillbilly items.
You can even choose the design of Joe’s check-shirt."


If you like rednecks you should check out the post, i thought it was funny but it had a lousy response :(

Yup.
Rednecks and trucks is a genre long ignored.
No more.

It should be more like Smokey and the Bandit. If the main character has a Burt Renolds tache or a big dog then it should be ok. Just racing about could be quite boring after a while, just hope it has all the extras to make it last. I don't have an xbox though, maybe it will get ported to other consoles??

They should make a game of Smokey and the Bandit where you could drive the truck and the Trans Am, now that would be good. :-)

Are you normally pleased this easily?
