Thanks to the success of GTA: San Andreas, gangbanging is THE must-have theme for every other game released this year.

And that includes 25 to Life, Eidos' "urban action third person shooter" that lets you play as either gangster or copper. They've just released a new trailer for the game and you can find it here.

25 to life offers both a single-player mode and online battles for up to 16 players, with a "highly interactive urban environment" that features stuff like car alarms, pedestrians and barking dogs which can give your position away to enemies.

There's a customisable character system so you can deck yourself out in the "latest threads", and a healthy selection of uzis, smoke grenades, tasers and the like.

Plus, of course, the obligatory "cutting edge hip hop soundtrack featuring undeniable rap classics as well as the best of current and breaking artists." Rumours that Blazin' Squad have recorded a cover of NWA's F**k Da Police have yet to be confirmed.
