Def Jam Icon for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

Def Jam Icon is a real change in the line-up of def jam games,but for the worse.

PROS:
Unique storyline
Good selection of people

CONS:
Whole game as been changed
no specials
Nothing new

Def Jam Icon took the core of FFNY and threw it away and started fresh,bad idea! with no fighting cuztimization and no specials, your character really isn't any different then any other fighter in this game. Instead of the hundreds of unique and amazing specials from the previous game,you have this silly Dj scratching nonscence thats only fun to use for like 10 times,after that your pretty much seeing the same thing over and over again in a different venue. As storyline goes, it really is different. Making you into a fighter and a producer, which is fine if i was playing the sims or some other simulator but thats not the case here. to be frank, this game is perfect if you want to play a boring fighting game that killed a once unique and fun franchise

Now i have played the old ones like fight for new york city, Vanda and this was a huge disappointment since when i heard they made a new def jam game i was going crazy i thought it was going to be amazing but when i played it the fighting style was with the music and you couldn't free room as much as you could in new york and the response for the punches and kicks where really slow and hard to play since you couldn't really do much but OK for a sequel for a game back from 03 or really far back like that
