A site has been put together that shows you how to make various artists not included in Def Jam Icon.
This site was made for all you people who had some hopes that a rapper would be in the game, but he was not. So far there are rappers like: 2Pac, 50 Cent, A.I., Andre 3000, Chamillionaire, DJ Clue, Eminem, Joe Budden, Memphis Bleek, Snoop Dogg, U God, Young Dro, and a few more.
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?
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.
Do you remember the Def Jam-licensed hip hop video game franchise released by EA Games? Def Jam Vendetta? Def Jam: Fight for NY? Def Jam: Icon? Well, the studio seems to be teasing the fourth entry by tweeting that a "special announcement" will be coming soon.
It won’t be the same, these rappers nowadays are corny as f$&k and they won’t hold the same weight as the rappers in the first two games.....Icon was trash.
This seems like nothing but talk. I don't even think EA has the rights to make Def Jam games anymore. The last Def Jam Game was a sing a long game by Konami.
Def Jam: Fight for NY was badass. Played the shit out of that one. Icon was trash.
Just do a full remake of F4NY
The first two games were good. Since they were developed by AKI Corp.
The third game was made by EA Chicago, who made such a bad fighting game that EA abandoned their studio. Activision then bought the studio and they were renamed to Robomodo. They then proceeded to make 4 garbage Tony Hawk games in a row, and then shut down.
If there's another game, and its not made by AKI Corp., then move on.
With the pretty much same rester with some new rappers like j.cole and kendrick.. and 69 just so I can beat his ass couple of times. Up to date graphics or the style of ICON and gameplay of fight for NY and we have a winner. But none of that will happen..
The record label appears to be stoking fan excitement over a new game in a few not so subtle tweets.
As long as it's more like Fight for NY and less like Icon. Hopefully they bring back AKI Corporation to develop it
It all comes down to developer, and while EA Toronto did a great job with FFNY, I'm pretty sure they don't want anything more to do with the Def Jam series. Which is why we got Def Jam Icon from EA Chicago, and the guy behind the Xbox Kinect.
Fight for NY was an awesome game!! Even for a fighting game it had great replay ability. Sunk some serious hours into that game.
Because these games are $h1te.
Who the hell cares about dumba$$ rappers beating themselves up...
yea that's fun...
Downloaded the demo of this game and couldn't believe that it actually is fun.
I'm not sure how many hardcore gamers (folks on this site) actually are hip hop heads. Many kids are though and the rap culture plays into a game like this. Is this AAA or a classic? No, but it is actually pretty fun. I'm not sure, but that is the point of games.
This game has widely recognizable characters outside the gaming world that people can use to fight with. it's no Streetfighter Turbo but it is fun. In my opinion.
Its a pretty good game,could be better.
