This game was fun. This had great artist's from the rap industry, this game was intense. Great character's like snoopdogg, redman, methodman, lil kim, seanpaul, fatjoe, elephantman, xzibit, busta ryhmes, ice t, stickyfingaz, and more. The move's were hot the enviorment was great, you can trow your oppoinet on a car, you can use weapon's, you can smash your oppoinet against the wall, you can do back flip attack's on the wall. The storymode was great to you can customize your character but the storymode was hard espacially when you face fatjoe he is a cheater in this game but it was a great game. The last part in the storymode when you face snoopdogg was kinda hard to, he back flip's on the wall for advantage to take you out and so you fall out the window but i past that part, i beat the game already. The stage's were great to and the music even though iam not really into rap but it was good.

 My Favorite Fighting Game February 22, 2008
Def Jam Vendetta: Fight For NY may appear to be an easy way for EA Games and Def Jam to make some extra cash by employing hip hop acts to star in this game. However, it is a very intricate, well thought out fighting system that transcends the button smashing of many other games. I don't think of myself as an avid gamer, but I know a great game when I play one.
The gameplay is fantastic with many fighting styles to choose from, various punch, kick and grapple combos and a very impressive create-a-fighter process. The ability to choose between, and combine up to three of five possible fighting styles is perhaps the best part of the game. Each style is unique and each combination of any number of styles results in an unique hybrid style. The graphics too are quite impressive, especially considering it is not a next generation console.
The story mode is long and satisfying, although not very flexible in that you really have no choices in what direction your player chooses, that is, you have to follow a strict story and cannot deviate from it, which detracts from the replay value. Outside of story mode this is a great game to play with friends with options of one-on-one, two-on-two and 3 or 4 player free-for-alls. There are also subway matches, window matches, inferno matches, ring-out matches, and demolition matches, which I won't talk in detail about. While the number of different matches seems impressive, it does feel as if there is so much diversity as it may appear.
I am a fan of hip hop, and although many of the characters in the game aren't very talented artists in real life, it is fun to listen to my Redman, Method Man, Erick Sermon, Ghostface etc. playlists while fighting as the character. Additionally, I enjoy creating other rappers (Gza, Chuck D, Big Daddy Kane) through the create-a-fighter mode in story mode, and although they don't perfectly resemble their real life counter part, the system is detailed enough that similarities are clear. Other than the rigidity of story mode, my only complaints are the inability to have the CPU fight as one of your created fighters and that the game has frozen a few times during story mode or i would get stuck running and not be able to move. Other than that, it is an excellent game that I would recommend to any fan of fighting consoles.

It's nice when a company has faith in it's unique franchises. And with a company as big as E.A., you would have faith too.
I'm talking about Def Jam: Fight for NY. Boasting some of the biggest names in both hip-hop fashion and talent (who lend their voices to the game) really adds to the authenticity of the culture the game portrays.
The fighting engine is easily compared to the classic wrestling titles on the N64. This is a good thing, as some will say these are some of the best games of the genre.
There are 5 fighting styles, which as you progress, allow mixing between them. With unlockable's including wrestlers, venues, and merchandise, there is plenty to keep you playing. Fans of fighters and hip-hop shouldn't miss this one.
