Def Jam Vendetta
Here is the fact sheet for EA’s, Def Jam Vendetta: -
Unique, original storyline that compliments gameplay action - the plot
thickens through the circuit. -
Over 45 characters, including 12 Def Jam artists: DMX, Ludacris,
Method Man, Redman, NORE, Scarface, Ghostface Killah, Capone, Keith
Murray and WC. Also featuring Christina Milian and Funkmaster Flex. -
More than 10 highly detailed underground worlds, built straight
from the mean streets: places like DMX's Junkyard and Scarface's
Speakeasy. -
Continuous play with over 1,500 unique moves including a variety of
fighting techniques (reverse kicks, punches, martial arts swings, choke
holds, elbow blocks, knee bunts, etc.) and hyper realistic EA SPORTS
BIG-style moves that are dynamic with realistic finesse and style. -
Dozens of signature special moves and player taunts. All moves
referenced directly from each Def Jam artist. -
Unique momentum and health system that will change based on the player
status (i.e. players doing well will "feel" their strength
increase / evolve into a blazin' special move; and players that are
getting beat will see their health impact their moves, eventually
becoming slower and weaker). -
Two original intro/victory sequences per Def Jam artist. -
The hottest beats from the streets: new hit songs from Def Jam Records. -
Three game modes: Battle, Story and Survival. -
Four match types: Single, Tag Team, Free For All and Handicap. -
Sound design by DaneTracks (The Matrix, 8 Mile). EA Big has made a name for itself with the success of franchises such as SSX and NBA Street and has now taken on the job of creating their first fighting game. Def Jam Vendetta may appear to be just another wrestling game, but it's not. The game has everything a fighting and wrestling fan would crave plus more!
