Overview

First-person shooter set in a burned-out, urban-decay city, where you recruit a gang, fight rival gangs, and seek revenge on the Kingpin.

About the game

As a thug beaten to the brink of death, you begin a mission of revenge. To do that, you must start your own gang and recruit from the streets. If a new gang member turns out to be a punk, you can blast him and make room for new ones.

The world is filled with burned-out buildings and urban decay, while local gangs roam the streets protecting their turf and looking for opportunities. You move up in the world, but eventually you have to take on the Kingpin.

Recruit a gang of thugs and rule the streets. The combat is bloody, brutal, and swearing-heavy, with head-shots, bleeding, and fire used against rivals. The source also notes impressive graphics and AI for its time, plus an original soundtrack by Cypress Hill.
