Midway solidifies voice cast, soundtrack for NARC

Midway today announced that it has signed Any Given Sunday actor Bill Bellamy to the cast of voices for its upcoming action game NARC. Bellamy joins Michael Madsen (Kill Bill Vol. 2, Driver 3), Ron Perlman (Hellboy, Blade II), and Michael Wincott (The Crow) in the game's cast. While not officially announced, Bellamy will probably voice DEA agent Marcus Hill, one of the game's playable characters.

Midway also revealed some details on the game's soundtrack, which will follow a hip-hop and R&B theme. Several lesser-known artists from the soundtrack of NBA Ballers will provide original tracks for NARC, including Jelly Joe, Kenny Knox, Point Game, and Bobby Creekwater of Jatis. Following the game's drug-addled theme, the other tracks announced so far are:
