Naturally -- between a Halo project involving Steven Spielberg, a documentary on the terrible E.T. video game for Atari 2600 and a series on street soccer -- the next project from Xbox Entertainment Studios is a show based on hip-hop artist Nas' youth. Deadline reports that "a half-hour series project loosely based on his life as a hip-hop artist in the 1990s" is on the way, titled "Street Dreams." Presumably it heavily features him having dreams of being a gangster, drinking Moet and holding Tecs, making sure the cash came correct? Kind of! It's said to dig into his past growing up in the Queensbridge Projects, and Nas himself is signed on to handle music and assist with writing (the formal writing and directing duty is handled by fellow New Yorker Jonathan Levine).

It's unclear when this project is planned for, nor do we have much insight into the grander plans of Nancy Tellem and co. at Xbox Entertainment Studios. The ol' cable box plugged into the Xbox One will have to suffice for now.

Ummm...Ok...

Um Who?  I can honestly say I don't think I've ever heard of him. 



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

One of the Forefathers of Hip-Hop.

I feel like that show will bomb personally.

Hmmm pretty sure a shit load of G dogs are gamers too... A Nas show could push the xb1 in the hip hop community like the Hennessy of gaming... Ensuing a shit load of exposure in music videos pushing more products toward the audience....

Yeah, it seems like something that would do far batter on something like MTV or VH1. Honestly Microsoft's tv programming seems to be all over the place based on what they've talked about so far, I feel like they'd be better off specializing instead of taking this jack of all trades approach. Many gamers are nerds, so stick to sci-fi and fantasy shows mostly, with a few mainstream shows for the casual gamers. Hopefully they've got some amazing programming that they're keeping secret and stuff like this is just fluff.


Not true. Many gamers are dudebros.
