Def Jam: Fight for NY (Xbox, 2004)

My uncle owns the game. When I went to go visit him he let me play it. I liked it and wanted to get my own. It is a great game with a lot of famous people in it. They got rappers and a few actors and actresses. I like the fact that you can customize what he wears and what his over all body type looks like. You can also choose from five different fighting styles. You can improve certain aspects of his fighting style and even chose his finishing moves. Over all it has a good story and isn't totally irrelevant like some other games. Its addicting and a bit frustrating sometimes but that's probably only me. There are some challenges in the game but thats what makes it fun. It would suck if you win all the time.

It is an awsome fighting game. Your fighters training is done with Henry Rollins. You must create your fighter and rise him up in the ranks to take back the fight clubs. Along the way, your gonna fight with ICE-T and Flava Flav and a host of others. I don't want to tell to much about the game, but this is a "MUST HAVE" fighting game for the older X-BOX system. It is also a game that I would not recommend to either the faint of heart that doesn't like blood or bones being snapped or to the youngsters that absorb what they see and hear. The graphics rock, plenty of fighting action - (Beer Bottles, sticks, pipes, chain link fences, DJ amps and jukeboxes) to throw your opponent into. This game is what the UFC Fights would be like in a club or on the streets not in a ring. In my opinion, This has to be one of the "BEST" fighting games for the X-BOX. This is also why it's hard to find and maybe somewhat expensive depending on where you look. If you get your hands on it, you will not be disappointed.

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.

Score: 8.5/10

This game is a ton of fun! There are lots of moves you can do and most of them aren't available on other fighting games. In all game modes the fighting is fun and the best part are the weapons! The weapons are fun and comical; good stuff. The soundtrack is top notch but that goes without saying. When you create your own fighter you have a lot more options and leeway than you do in other games.

Very, very fun game.

Awesome game!!!! You get a chance to be the biggest,baddest fighter around!! Build you own fighter then let the fun begin!!!
