Touting itself as "too gangster for the Garden" (in the words of
its kingpin D-Mob), Def Jam Vendetta takes you on a
head-slamming, gut-busting tour of the underground hip-hop
fightclub circuit. No blow is too low in this testosterone-spiked
world featuring the music and likenesses of Def Jam artists such
as Ghostface Killah, Redman and Ludacris--not to mention a whole
host of the nastiest, most lowdown fictional thugs you'd imagine
the hardcore rap world has to offer. Everyone's lying in wait to
see if you're for real or just another wannabe player.
Def Jam Vendetta offers three game modes: Battle, where it's just
you against up to three takers, Survival, in which you fight all
comers until you lose and--where the real meat of the game takes
place--Story, in which you fight as one of four brawlers. The
journey begins at the Face Club where you step in for your
injured pal Manny. From there you move on to other venues such as
DMX's Junkyard and Ludacris's Club Luda and climb the ranks to
the ultimate showdown with D-Mob. The route there isn't a
cakewalk, but the more battles you win, the more money you make
to upgrade your fighting attributes. Victories also bring the
ladies calling. They literally fight for your attention--win a
fight by playing as the newest girl to approach you and you'll
unlock pictures of her in your photo gallery.
Action inside the ring is gritty and furious as you can lay down
a multitude of moves and combinations with names like Hurtin'
Unit, Spittin' Teef, Ghetto Thuggin', and Death Row Delivery, to
name just a few. Momentum is key in building toward Blazin' Mode,
in which you can utilise your signature move for the sure KO. In
the meantime, though, there's still plenty of fun to be had in
decking your nents and watching them moan and writhe about in
pain. --Larry White
