ABOUT URBAN!
Urban is based on the streets of the cities that we live in today. This world is filled with Gangstas who see killing as a sport. They cannot tell the difference between right and wrong. They will leave you lying in a pool of your own blood if you make a wrong move. It is your job to take the role of one of these Gangstas and make a difference on the streets.
Urban is a Gangster based realistic RPG that allows you to create a character, name him, and Control his life as a Gangster. Urban has many different aspects to it and allows players to surf the game and customize their very own Gangster.
NOTE: If you join DO NOT FARE EVADE on the subway it's instant 1 day jail sentence.
