Def Jam Icon for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

They have changed everything in this game from what was really good to what is now really bad. Where do I begin, the line up of characters is no where near what it was in the previous games. The fight system is not like any of the other games and is slow and non-fun. All they talked about in the trailers was how they wanted to produce a game that was blended with real hip-hop and all they did was put all the music, and artist that are not REAL hip hop. Where is Crazy Legs, LL, Nas, Emenim, Jay Z, Missy! There is no character to this game at all, the old Def Jams had character and life to it. This game is like one of today's rap videos, but in slow mo! They got so lazy with the fight engine in this one and do not even get me started on the names for the combat styles! This is ridiculous, the unnecessary filters on the screen were annoying and how do you make it possible for XBOX 360 to have custom soundtracks and not the PS3 version!!!!! What was good about this game, the graphics look awesome and the producer aspect is very cool. The create a character option is one of the best thus far I really made the character look like myself. In conclusion I dislike it when a game series comes so far and then drops the ball. In essence getting rid of all the things that made it cool to begin with.

I started the game by making a white guy. Let me tell u the optoins for making a white character are very slim. We like hip hop too ya know. The story was soo much fun. I was into the whole producing selling record getting artist thing. Then about after an hour my guys stoped amking music and i never got to do this option again. Then another hour into it the game is over. It doesnt let u keep putting out ure artists music. It makes u start over with teh same story. I was soo mad. I was loving this genious producing thing. It just ended wouldnt let me do anything. Then it said i can store my character well whoopty doo. I like how it ended but i thought it was goin to keep goin but it just stopped and the credits rolled. Great game for 2 hours but after that there is literaly NOTHING to do but do the whole story over again. A great rental other then that dont BUY!!!!
