There was never a volume 2. It's always a bad idea
to label your game the first of a series, especially
when you have no experience in making or
marketing video games. Motown Records is a
historic record label that helped change the face of
music forever. Motown Games was nothing more
than some cheap was to milk gamers from their
hard-earned money. They only ever released two
games (the other could have made this list if we
didn't leave out the movie rule) and both are
considered some of the worst the Super Nintendo
ever got.
RapJam: Volume One is quite the mystery. Not
because there is an interesting story to dig
through, (there isn't) but because the game makes
no sense whatsoever. On paper the game should
have been an easy win. Clone the gameplay of NBA
Jam in a street-ball setting and insert a bunch of
rappers that were pretty big at the time. It really
does seem like a slam dunk of a video game, but
the company simply had no idea how to create a
video game.
The biggest offender in RapJam: Volume One is that
the game has no music while you play. It's almost
painful to think that a famed record company,
using world-famous rappers forgot to incorporate
music into their video game. It's amazing that the
only sounds in the game are the bouncing of the
ball and the occasional clapping of the crowd. If
you can't sleep playing a game of RapJam: Volume
One is better than any sleeping medicine. The
game was also developed by Mandingo
Entertainment, so there's that.
