Sega Tells Microsoft 'Funk You'

Unfortunately I never had a chance to play the first two ToeJam and Earl games. I'm not sure why I never tried the games out, but I think it had something to do with fact that every time I went to rent a game, it was always available. A sure sign to my young, inexperienced mind that it probably wasn't a good game.

I was wrong. After only a few minutes with the game at E3, I was hooked!

The game follows the exploits of ToeJam, Earl, and Latisha as they set out to recover the 12 sacred Albums of Funk from the dys-funk-tional inhabitants of the planet Earth. Their only weapon will be to master the ways of Funk-Fu. Over the course of the game's expansive environments, players will also collect presents to help them funkify Earth. The game even offers a fun rhythm mini-game.

Funk up your Xbox this fall.

"...know, I really don't. I have no idea how they got there in the first place. The thing is, they weren't right. -They just weren't 'right', you know - l#ke from ##i# pla##t or su#pin'... They was way too quick and they looked like they were out of one a those 'Terminator' movies or sumpin' only with cameras and sh*t insteada guns... They moved real silent and then 'zshwishzz' - they was gone. Just like that..."
