DefJam: Fight for NY is a one of a kind game, a relic of a style that seems to have very little incarnation nowadays. I deals with celebrity in the very popular hip hop scene, yet the title saw limited recognition. Being a sequel for the DefJam: Vendetta cult fighting game, you can enjoy the same humor and catchy tunes. Method Man, Snoop Dogg, and Busta Rhymes have their own role to play in this, just as the more rugged metal head Henry Rollins, actor Omar Epps or Kimora Lee Simmons. While this alone is about enough to jump right at it and play until the long hours of the night, you might want to take a look at all the unlockables first.
