The 31-year-old hip hop star is keen to team up with 'The X Factor' boss Simon Cowell on a rapping-style game similar to the TV talent show.

He said: "It would be good to make a music video game, I have this idea of like rappers on 'The X Factor', auditioning to be the next grime star - like 'Rap Factor'."

Wretch - whose real name is Jermaine Sinclair - is also keen to do the voice over for the title, and admits he's already put some plans in place into getting the game off the ground.

He added to the Daily Star newspaper: "I think it'd be interesting, maybe I could even be the voice over. It would be good to combine the two worlds, it's something I've looked into doing."

Simon is no stranger to the video game market having previously launched Codemasters' 'Pop Idol - The Official Video Game' for the PlayStation 2 way back in November 2003.

The title was based on the talent show of the same name - on which Simon was a judge - and enables players to create a singer and take them through the heats and qualifying rounds of the competition all the way to the final.

However, instead of judging gamers on their singing talents, the title features a rhythm-style game which works by people pressing their control pads at the same time certain symbols appear.

What's more, your singer's clothing, which is chosen before you take to the stage each time, is assessed.
