Def Jam Vendetta (2003 Video Game)
9/10
A Hip Hop Game Where It All Started
9 November 2022
After completing Def Jam Fight For NY I might as try to play the first previous Def Jam video game title called Def Jam Vendetta. Unlike the second game, which has no character creation for the story mode I get to choose 4 protagonists in the story mode which are Briggs, Proof, Spider, and Tank. Each has its own look, fighting style, and backstory. But somehow despite having to pick any of the four characters. Their own story just completely remains the same. Meaning that it only shows nothing but copy-paste cut scenes instead of showing the proper perspective of any of the protagonist's side of the story.

As for the gameplay, it is very difficult to control because it does not have the same controls as Def Jam Fight For NY. But thankfully there is a tutorial option in the monument I can understand the controls.

When playing the game with multiple fights I have been I was unsure if its either the controls of the game or just only me. Because the more I proceed with the story the harder the fights that I have been. Turns out that I have only normal difficulty this whole time. So technically it's just me. Because my hands were very painful fighting every opponent I defeated which looks more like a workout.

Either way, this is another one of those great Def Jam Games that I would recommend. It's best to play the first game before playing the second.
