Product ReviewsDef Jam: Fight for NY (Microsoft Xbox, 2004)

Addictive gameplay, a blast of fun, but game occasionally freezes, can’t play the story mode.

Game freezes occasionally, especially on story mode. I stopped trying it, the battle mode works and it still has the addictive gameplay and immerse value. Shame, I can’t play the story to unlock everything quicker. I am grinding for every character and venue. Read full review...

Rap, Hip-Hop and Wrestling!!!

Reviewed for Big Boss Games by: P.K. The Green

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: 8.5/10Read full review...

Street Fight!!!

Pros
+ Not just another wrestling game.
+ More immersive than the first.
+ Tons of recognizable celebrities you can either choose to be or beat down.

Cons
- It's all about the rappers but at least it's not about rapping.
- Lots of button-mashing.
- No online play.

Comments
Fight for NY continues the Def Jam series & gives your standard wrestling games a run for their money with it's trademark street style fighting mixed with wrestling. And you don't have to see grown men wearing spandex. Def Jam is also much faster paced than any other wrestling game out there & the finishing moves are amazing.

Verdict
Must play for any wrestling fan. Must have for any fan of fighting games.Read full review...

Underrated Classic

Underrated Classic, not an easy fighting system to master, which makes you want to keep playing. Brutal action, lots of unlockables, and customization for your character. It's also fun to see all the different hip hop artists that were willing to participate and make the game possible.Read full review...

Got the game today, tested it, doesn’t work. It’s a great game. One of our favorites. It’s a shame that I have to get my money back for it since it doesn’t work.

Underrated Fighting/Wrestling Game

This was developed by the same team that made the N64 WCW and WWF wrestling games. They put a more arcade touch on their engine and the action is very fast. But don't let the speed fool you; this is s seriously in-depth fighting game.

Hard to play at first but easy to master once you've gotten it.Read full review...
