10 Celebrity Endorsed Video Games That Should Offend You
8. Marky Mark And The Funky Bunch: Make My Video
For those of you too young to remember, before Mark Wahlberg, the actor, there was Marky Mark, the rapper. He and his group, The Funky Bunch, had a few minor hits in the early 90s so it is only normal that they deserved a video game, too. Might as well milk the cow dry before it decides to get into acting. The result was Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch: Make My Video. Actually, this was the third in the Make My Video franchise, following other musical luminaries such as INXS and Kris Kross. The gameplay (if we can call it that) was the same for all three games. You have access to three songs from each artist and you have to make new videos for them using stock footage, pre-edited videos and special effects. All the while you get to hear the same song over and over again. Not surprisingly, all three games were disasters. Not just critically, but financially, which makes us wonder how they made it to three games in the first place. And actually it was four games as developer Digital Pictures also made Power Factory featuring C+C Music Factory beforehand.
