Since the release of Def Jam Icon there has been no news on the series. Many want a new entry in the series and this is what should be added if it returned.
These days, it might be a little too easy to take for granted how accessible multiplayer gaming has become.
SSX TRICKY is one of my favorite multi-player video games of all time . Maybe because i used to spin on my back and head in the early 80s when I was in high school.
Def Jam: Fight for New York is a revered PlayStation 2 title among Hip-hop and fighting game fans alike. Create your own street tough fighter and hit the fight clubs of New York to take on iconic music artists for control of the city.
The amount of content this game has is crazy. No DLC or micro transactions. Deep fighting mechanics and people are still hosting tournaments on YouTube. Top 5 fighting games of all time.
I'd love to see it get a quality follow-up or at least a re-release though the licensing of the music and the rappers themselves is no doubt a nightmare now.
The Def Jam game series has been laying dormant for over a decade at this point, but could we ever see a revival of some kind?
Whut
Fight for New York was awesome.
Icon was pretty bad, but I'll give them some benefit because they tried to do something new. A direct sequel to FFNY would be grand, though in the era of microtransactions and EA being who they are now, one should tread carefully about that fantasy.
I hear you, but the rappers nowadays are completely lame and corny when compared to the rappers from FFNY.
I rather take a remake from the game than a sequel.
You'll get no disagreement from me there.
For some reason, I hadn't considered that there would be modern rappers. Christ.
On the other hand, I wouldn't be mad if they added more Wutang members so I can "torture" Tekashi69. :D
we definitely need it to return, but nothing like Icon since that was trash. The mechanics of Def Jam fight for NY and Vendetta was still great til this day.
I hope so. Just go back to the Fight for New York style, and forget Icon ever happened.
Man I used to really love DJ Fight for NY and DJ Icon back in the day. I hope someone (not EA) can revive this franchise.
Icon sucks, I admit. But I used to love the DJ games so much that I was willing to accept any game thrown in my way.
Would love for it to come back.If not a new entry i would take the PS2 remaster version with trophies and online play
Icon was fucking garbage. The PS2 games were so much better it's insane.
Mann, if they remastered this or even better, made a sequel that followed this gameplay style i'd cry tears of joy. Icon was terrible
