  • Summary: (Currently available in the UK/EU only) B-Boy allows you to battle through authentic Hip-Hop break-dancing culture, challenging the world's best B-Boys on the world's greatest B-Boy stages - and hopefully take home an in-game adidas sponsorship along the way. The first and only authentic break-dancing title on PSP stays true to the spirit of B-Boying thanks to the wireless functionality - giving you the freedom to battle on the move – anytime and anywhere – just as B-Boy competitions were meant to be. Featuring real life B-Boy characters, every in-game move is motion-captured from the experts, including moves taken from world famous Redbull athlete, "Crazy Legs", who also acts as game MC and end of level boss. Battling around the world, B-Boy features real locations and events, accompanied by the sound of a licensed Hip-Hop and classic Funk soundtrack with each track being selected by the B-Boys featured in-game. Progress through play by taking on 40 of the world's greatest B-Boy personalities, and pull off unique moves and outrageous combo's to become number one. Key game features include: 40 B-Boy characters to do battle with, including world famous B-Boy, Crazy Legs; 12 fully licensed motion-captured competitive B-Boys from Europe, Asia and North America; 21 authentic world wide locations including Redbull BC One, Freestyle Sessions, UK B-Boy Championships and IBE; 40 licensed Hip Hop and classic Funk tracks; Customise your B-Boy with full character personalisation – winning battles allows you to kit yourself out with the latest adidas clothing.

    An innovative and challenging take on an old formula. [Nov 2006, p.100]

    Despite B-Boy's weaker points, there's nothing here that can take away from the main feature, which is the dancing itself. This has been recreated beautifully.

    Remarkably shallow and underwhelming.
