Activision brings out the hollywood big guns to voice upcoming hard-boiled crime game
Christopher Walken, Gary Oldman and Michael Madsen lead an all-star voice cast of top Hollywood talent in Activision, Inc.'s upcoming crime game True Crime: Streets of L.A. The actors were specially selected to add their distinctive voices and talents to True Crime: Streets of L.A.'s, vast line-up of gangsters, street hustlers, social deviants and reluctant heroes. True Crime: Streets of L.A., which will be available this fall for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, the Xbox video game system from Microsoft and the Nintendo GameCube, has not yet been rated by the ESRB.

A more comprehensive list of cast members follows: Christopher Walken, Gary Oldman, Michael Madsen, Russell Wong, Michelle Rodriguez, Ron Perlman, CCH Pounder, James Hong, Mako, Keone Young

Inspired by Hong Kong action flicks and American crime dramas, True Crime: Streets of L.A. puts the player in the shoes of Nick Kang, a rogue ex-cop whose personal vendetta with the L.A. underground nets him as many enemies with the "Force" as with the syndicates he's sworn to destroy. Developed by Luxoflux, the creators of the successful Vigilante 8 series, the game blends multiple genres into a single cinematic game. Action in True Crime: Streets of L.A. blends seamlessly between car chases, shootouts, foot pursuits and hand-to-hand combat as players try to take down the mob. Additionally, the game allows players to explore a living, breathing re-creation of the City of Angels, complete with hundreds of miles of authentic streets and popular L.A. landmarks.
