Anyone else into this game?
I wasn't too big of a fan of the original Def Jam: Vendetta, but honestly this game kicks, the create a fighter option is really well done, and the storyline is pretty cool considering it's a game based around a rap label. Surprisingly, none of the rappers appear as the rappers, just fighters, which makes it cool.
The soundtrack is rap (Naturally), but it fits pretty well for what it is, and it does get you pumped, I would have dug some more dance based tracks and things, but soundtracks arn't all that make a game, what sells this sucker, is the gameplayer.
The game is published through EA, but happens to be made by AKI, which for those of you who don't know, are some badass motha fackos at making fighting games.
The physics are well done, the fighting styles and special attacks are brutal, and furthermore the interactivity of the game impressed me right off. Crowd interactions and things are a big plus and really help turn the tide of fights sometimes.
Anyone play this gem? It's only 20 bucks on Greatest Hits now. And I think it's well worth it.
