Subculture dominates the gang-populated streets of London. Basically, you have to take a really neat inspection at each gang to find out how they play, what their skills are, and what weapons they tote. The entire story changes depending on the gang you choose to play. For example, Jamaicans, Russians, Chinese, British, and Pakistanis have both the hand-to-hand and vehicle skills. Some gangs have good power and stamina, while others can drive with excellent speed and direction. In this Gangs of London update, we give you a bit of info about the Zakharov Organization and the EC2 Crew.

Headed by Vladislav Zakharov, the Zakharov Organization poses as a Russian shipping company. In truth, it has been a major player doing racket business in Westminster and Lambeth for years. Zakharov, who was an ex-Russian Mafia gangster, has then invited other Russians to come to London and build up a network of criminals.

The EC2 Crew, headed by Mason Grant, is one of the deadliest gangs at large in London. The gang is known for its violent retaliation against its enemies. Most of the members are Jamaican and have learned their mobster skills on the streets of Kingston. Initially, the gang's turf is quite small but its territory is expanding past the EC2 postcode area.

Gangs of London will be released on October 3 in the U.S.

As a gift from a far away friend. I've been able to play this game (UMD) for about two weeks. I have to say that I'm rather unimpressed with the overall gameplay. While the graphics and storyline may be great, it's the gameplay and how the game "feels" to you that's important. It's Lacking.
In My Opinion.
Buy it, ONLY, if you really, really want it..........

yep, steer clear of this one. controls/camera very ordinary. gameplay abysmal. the pub (mini games) is the best thing here. the pool and darts games are actually fun however not a reason to purchase. save your money.
