The Boondocks: PLAYSTATION 3 Bound?

Before I get started on this article, I was not tipped by a an unnamed source on an upcoming Boondocks game, this is just an opinion article.

First off, Sony owns the rights to The Boondocks series, so securing it as an exclusive title would not be hard for them at all. Second off, around January last year (2006), Aaron McGruder, creator of The Boondocks comic strip was looking to turn the series into video game properties.

So, we already know a video game is coming, but we have no information on it whatsoever. Now, the thing to think about is, when the game is released, what type of gameplay will it incorporate?

First, let's back up a bit on the story of The Boondocks series. This is not your typical cartoon adult swimmer. This cartoon features excessive use of the N' word, little kids who know Judo, one crazy ass granddad, and an old black man who thinks he is white.

The one known as Grandad is Robert Freeman, legal guardian of his grandkids Huey (10) and Riley (8) Freeman. He moves them from the south side of Chicago to the quiet and safety of the suburbs for a better life.

Other characters in the show include Tom, Sarah, and Jasmine Doubis, friends of the Freemans. Another character is Ruckus, the old black man who hates black people, and loves white people (kind of odd).

As the title is in development (the video game) most likely, you'd think what kind of style they would be choosing. Will it be open world in a Grand Theft Auto type style? Or level by level in a Mario type style? Or even the cartoonish humor in a Simpsons Game like style.

A combat system? Huey knows Judo (chop chop chop), Riley is a gangster, Robert Freeman has his ways, and even Ruckus mastered the nunchaku.

We can only wait to learn more of the title. But knowing Sony, if this title is in development for Next-Gen consoles, it is most likely PLAYSTATION 3 exclusive.
