PaRappa's Courtroom Fracas
Poor PaRappa. The 90's were soooo long ago. What's he been up to since? Bad stuff, it looks like, as he's forced to call upon an old friend to help him through some legal troubles. -

Mega64 Takes Parappa To The Streets
A person who goes into public dressed like a cartoon rapping puppy to serenade random passersby with his funky fresh beats has balls far beyond mere mortal men. If anyone is missing a pair, odds are this guy picked them up and ran off with them. One of these days one of the Mega64 boys is going to get killed, and that would be terribly sad. After all, "It's a nice day to not be in a hearse. " Tru' dat. More » -

PaRappa Creators Re-Team For Wii Exclusive
PaRappa fans rejoice! The award-winning team of artist Rodney Alan Greenblat and legendary musician and game designer Masaya Matsuura is back, this time bringing together their awesome talents for an exclusive music-based game for the Nintendo Wii, coming in late 2008 from Majesco Entertainment. While details on the project are basically non-existent, just the fact that these two are working together on a new game is enough to get me all tingly. Majesco CEO Jesse Sutton has high hopes for the title. "We are incredibly excited to be working with talent of this caliber and believe our game shares the same broad mass market appeal as successful music-based products like Activision's Guitar Hero and MTV's Rock Band."
Okay really high hopes, but that's understandable. Being a huge fan of the PaRappa series (Jet Baby is my personal hero), I've got high hopes too. More » -

PaRappa, the T-Shirt
I just landed a copy of PaRappa, the Rapper for the PSP. I've only had a few minutes to mess around with it, but so far it's everything I had hoped it would be. The game also came with this very cool PaRappa, the Rapper T-shirt co-designed by Paul Frank. I actually have a Paul Frank pirate belt buckle, which I believe officially makes me an 8-year-old. -

PaRappa Music Designer on Game Music
Is there something in the water, or have all the game developers unanimously agreed to let their egos inflate to crazy new heights? PaRappa the Rapper designer Masaya Matsuura says that (according to Next Gen), "games and music have failed to conjoin in imaginative ways in the years since his seminal hit." This after Shane Kim from Microsoft Game Studios' was duly unconvinced by PS3's Home 3D environment. More » -

Getcher Parappa, Um Jammer Lammy Guitars Here!
I'll admit that I never made it through Um Jammer Lammy, despite the game's critical success. I've played Parappa the Rapper the death. Hell, I even suffered through a good hour of the sub-par PlayStation 2 sequel, but Lammy? I just didn't "get it". More » -
