Def Jam Series (Video Game) | comment |
Def Jam is a 3D video game series published by EA.The first game, Def Jam Vendetta, was developed by AKI Corporation (now Syn Sophia; known for WWF No Mercy and other wrestling games in Western countries) and EA Canada. Released in 2003 for the Nintendo GameCube and PlayStation 2, the concept for the game is a combination of Professional Wrestling and Hip-Hop culture, featuring several rappers, mostly from Def Jam Recordings, instead of professional wrestlers. In the game, the player has to pick from four different characters to use in the story mode. In the story, the protagonist's injured friend Manny calls them to ask that they take his place in an underground street fight, and to help him pay a debt to the underworld boss D-Mob (Christopher Judge), who happens to be hooked up with the protagonist's old flame. In the end, after they've beaten all of the other fighters, the protagonist faces off against D-Mob himself. Upon defeating him, they leave with their girlfriend and the ending sets up for the sequel.The sequel, Fight for NY, developed by AKI and EA Canada again, picks up immediately after the first game. D-Mob has just been arrested and is being brought in to police custody when the car transporting him gets broadsided by an SUV. The player plays as the SUV's driver, a fighter looking to make it big in the fight circuit, and who plans to use the rescue of D-Mob from police custody as the big break he needs. However, after barely any time as one of D-Mob's fighters, the protagonist finds out that D-Mob's criminal empire and his hold over New York has been weakened, allowing another syndicate led by Crow (Snoop Dogg) to challenge his for control of New York. The outcome of this Mob War is going to rest on the the protagonist's shoulders...Unlike the four pre-set characters in the first game, the player is able to create their own character. The player can also choose between several voice typesnote Except on the GameCube version, where there is only one voice type available due to the lower file space of the console's minidisc format and their own fighting style, which is fairly individual to the characters.note Not only are there the five basic fighting styles of Streetfighter, Kickboxer, Wrestler, Martial Artist, and Submissions, but fighters with the same style often use different moves depending on the size and build they're given when creating them. Furthermore, once you start using more than one style, the exact combination of styles chosen and your character's build will affect the resulting move sets and attacks your character uses. Also, while Vendetta is a wrestling game, Fight for NY gives much more leeway and balance to other fighting styles and techniques, making it a Fighting Game. It is also a lot more brutal. A lot more.Fight for NY eventually got ported to the PSP under the name of Fight for NY: The Takeover, featuring everything from the original game alongside new fighting styles, stages, and characters. The port also has its own story that serves as a Prequel to both Fight for NY and Vendetta.Following that was Def Jam: Icon developed by EA Chicago, who were the creators of an entirely different series: Fight Night. Rather than expanding on the formula from the previous games, they tried to make it more like a boxing game with rappers in it, which resulted in being something different from the rest of the series. While Icon ended up being mediocre at best, when compared to the previous entries in the series, it was a severe drop in quality, and thus sunk EA Chicago completely.Without hold of the license, the future of the Def Jam series as a fighter is questionable at best. Def Jam Rapstar was released on October 5, 2010. Published by Konami, Rapstar is not a fighting game but a karaoke game. And then it caused legal trouble. Lots of it. | |

Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_10b6b5f7 | comment |
Cherry Tapping: Capone's Blazin' Move sees him land a few punches on his opponent, pause, and then tip them over. Notably, cherry tapping doesn't work in the real fights in Fight for NY. The player can knock them down to a sliver of health that way, but they will keep getting up until the player use one of the designated finishers to put them down for good. | |

Heroic Mime: Whomever you play as in story mode in Vendetta. Proof, Spider and Tank have different fighting styles, but regardless of which one you pick the story plays out exactly the same and they never say a word. This is barely subverted with Briggs, who aforementioned only says "Yeah!" or "Woo!" when he performs one of his Blazin' Taunts. This is averted in Fight for NY and Icon, where the player's character has a sizeable speaking role. | |

Stage Fatality: Fight for NY has a few: A subway is one of the playable stages. Play your cards right, and you can end a fight by throwing your opponent in front of a moving train. The player can commit Destination Defenestration by virtue of the windows in Crow's Office. Red Hook Tire Co. takes place in a Ring of Fire. The player can end a match by throwing their opponent into the fire... followed by a wooden beam falling on them. | |

The player character will be this in Fight for NY, as he find himself Trapped in Villainy/Forced into Evil once Crow kidnaps his girlfriend. The player character, normally a smart mouthed, boastful, and crude hooligan will suddenly turn into The Quiet One and fight without saying a word, with his body language making it clear that he hates what he's being forced to do. | |

So of course, Crow decides to use her as leverage against the player before trying to kill them both. | |

Cock Fight: The first dates of the player character in Fight for NY and his selected girlfriend are essentially this in a nutshell. When the player character first meets the girl, he ends up having to fight someone who claims dibs on her. There later comes a genderbent version, where two girls will fight over the player character as well in pretty much the same situation. | |

Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_295087bf | comment |
Non-Indicative Name: Yes, even for a series that's largely In Name Only. Some of the emcees that were in the Def Jam games either spent time under the label before making a switch prior to an installment's development (Flava Flav of Public Enemy, Warren G), while many others were never with Def Jam in the first place (Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, E-40, T.I., Paul Wall, etc). The rappers that actually were with the label or any of its divisions up to the release of an installment are few and far between (Redman, Method Man, Young Jeezy). This is because many of the artists were pulled from the greater Universal Music Group label. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
While D-Mob is a criminal mastermind, his talk of honor and respect in Fight for NY is a complete 180 from his antics in Vendetta, where he blackmails Manny into betraying the protagonist and tries to shoot them in front of a crowd full of witnesses and spectators. This is lampshaded in the beginning of Fight for NY, when one of the first things Blaze does when D-Mob returns is to call him out on it, pointing out that, because he tried (and basically failed) to rule with respect, his antics in Vendetta caused a lot of trouble, allowing Crow to try to muscle in on his territory and setting the whole plot of the game in motion. | |

Rubber-Band A.I.: Vendetta and Fight for NY are notorious for this - expectedly so, since WWF No Mercy and its predecessors were notorious for it and they're all built on the same engine. If you get a character the computer controls in a corner without finishing it off for long enough, the difficulty will spike and characters the computer controls will suddenly become nearly flawless, especially when it comes to countering and blocking your attacks. | |

Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_36249acd | comment |
Lethal Joke Character: For all intents and purposes, in Fight for NY, Suspect is this. His appearance is an untextured model of Joe Budden, with the only noticeable difference, aside from the obvious, being the orientation of his ballcap, and his only purpose in the story is to act as a placeholder for the protagonist, since the player hasn't customized their character yet. Suspect also has maxed-out stats and uses the Streetfighting style, which has the simplest finisher: a haymaker. | |

Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: The Street Fighting style in Fight For NY consists of a mix of simple punches and kicks, and no more than four grapple moves. What it lacks in the grappling department and overall complexitynote Hell, the style's description even notes that its practitioners tend to be undisciplined fighters, it makes up for with offensive strength and the simplest style KO: a haymaker. | |

Character Development: At the start of Fight for NY, the player character is a seemingly down on his luck thug who saves D-Mob so he can join the latter's crew apparently for his own ambitions. Once the player character becomes a member, he gradually learns the meaning of loyalty and respect from D-Mob as well as a sense of comradely and friendship from the crew. | |

Took a Level in Kindness: D-Mob in Fight for NY is far more affable and honorable then he was in Vendetta. This can be linked to Character Development, as his defeat at the end of that game greatly humbled him. | |

Characterization Marches On | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_479f9ad0 | comment |
Characterization Marches On: D-Mob's personality in Fight for NY is completely different compared to Vendetta. Part of this is Character Development, but for the most part it's because we're seeing an entirely different side of him: in Vendetta, he's the antagonist, who the player character hates because he stole the PC's girlfriend, and D-Mob doesn't respect the PC's ability until it's too late and he's gotten his ass kicked. In Fight for NY, D-Mob is the mentor, doing his best to show what it means to be part of a crew, and teaching that loyalty and respect have to be earned. | |

Mechanically Unusual Fighter | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_5fc1c4b5 | comment |
Submission fighters are the Mechanically Unusual Fighter of the group; while most other fighting styles aim for knocking an opponent out, a submissionist picks a target on an opponent's body and keeps working it over until the opponent is forced to give up. On the plus side this means a submissions fighter can instantly make up for even a severe difference in health if they can just do enough damage to the target limb to make their opponent give up, handing them a victory even if their opponent had otherwise dominated the match. On the downside, continually using the same holds on the same limb will not endear them to the crowd, making a blazing move harder to build up to, and while the submission style can do a little bit of everything, it can't compete with the other styles in their specialized areas. | |

The player character will be this in Fight for NY, as he find himself Trapped in Villainy/Forced into Evil once Crow kidnaps his girlfriend. The player character, normally a smart mouthed, boastful, and crude hooligan will suddenly turn into The Quiet One and fight without saying a word, with his body language making it clear that he hates what he's being forced to do. | |

Left Hanging: Because Fight for NY birthed an entirely different sequel and Icon never birthed any sequels at all, their final cutscenes have raised a couple of unanswered questions: In Fight for NY, did the girlfriend actually die or just pass out from smoke inhalation? Did the player character escape the police, or did he get arrested? Were the bonus fights canonical? In Icon, was that the President of the United States, a record company president, or someone else entirely? Why does he want to keep tabs on your character? Who is the mole he's referring to? | |

Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_84e189a8 | comment |
Life Meter: Subverted. It's actually more of an endurance meter. Depleting it does not defeat the opponent, it just makes them weaker. Once they're at the danger zone, the player needs to do a finishing move, a powerful attack, a weapon strike, or something else unorthodox in order to KO them. | |

You and What Army? | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_85d27cfe | comment |
You and What Army?: Crow invokes this when the player character shows up to challenge him. When a wounded Blaze shows up, Crow is not impressed. When all of the player character's allies show up as well, Crow is visibly stunned. This is further exemplified when Crack and WC leaves Crow's crew to help the player character. | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: The player character's girlfriend in Fight for NY. Near the end of the game the player has to run inside a burning building to save her. When he finds her she's unresponsive from smoke inhalation - it isn't clear if she's unconscious or dead. The last she's seen is the player putting her on the ground outside the building before running off to fight Crow. She doesn't appear and isn't mentioned in the ending. | |

Character Customization | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_8aaa6f4f | comment |
Character Customization: Fight For NY had a surprisingly advanced character customization system for its time. Besides the face and skin color of the Player Character, they can change their clothing, which can also be changed to have certain parts rolled up or worn a certain way, jewelry, tattoos and their hair's cut and color. Though there are some restrictions like not being able to put a hoodie's hood up if the player has long hair. This is without bringing up their fighting style, which can be a mix between a few styles and the player being able to use just about every Blazin' move in the game, whether they be from an existing character or one that is unique to the player. | |

There Is No Kill Like Overkill: In Fight for NY, the player has to use stronger attacks to actually KO their opponent, which can range from weapons, to Blazin' Moves, to style-specific power moves. For example, wrestlers need to perform heavy grapples, while martial artists have to perform an attack off a wall. | |

While fighting games have never been known for gentle taps and hugs, half of the environmental attacks and Blazin' Moves would kill (or at least severely maim) people in real life. In-game, characters can soak up to ten or more in a row. Furthermore, by the time the player character faces Crow, he'll fight his way through the entire roster, save Blaze, who ends up having his own problems. The entirety of both crews shows up for one last rumble right before the final battle, however, despite the fact that none of them should even be in any realistic condition to fight. | |

One-Man Army | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_9e943076 | comment |
One-Man Army: Played with in FFNY. Your character can and will win dozens of one-on-one and likely two-on-two matches over the course of story mode, while displaying superhuman strength and toughness, but he is still just one man and not really capable of taking on multiple opponents at once. If you ever are in a two-on-two fight and your partner gets eliminated, or being ganged up on during one of the 4 man free-for-all matches, you are in serious trouble, as mounting a comeback when facing multiple opponents is a very difficult, even nigh-impossible feat. note This is what makes the fight between your player character and Blaze versus Magic and Crack That One Level for many players; Blaze starts the fight with his health reduced as a result of a beating taken in a cutscene before the fight begins. If you can't finish off one opponent before he is taken out (and if Blaze winds up trying to fight Crack, he can get taken out very quickly), you're all but certain to lose the fight. | |

Competitive Balance | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_9f4a47f2 | comment |
Competitive Balance: The different fighting styles from Fight For NY all have their different strengths and weaknesses to foster a rough balance. At least until you start using multiple fighting styles and trying to balance the weaknesses of one style with the strengths of another. Martial Artists are the Fragile Speedster class, easily the fastest style with the flashiest moves and generally being the best at defense, especially when it comes to countering blows. The down side for this class is their low damage output and the fact that their finishing move (bouncing off a wall and landing a jump kick) requires very precise timing to pull off and isn't available on all stages. Kickboxers are a Jack of All Stats who excel at using kicking attacks to keep opponents at long range and unable to reach them. Up close they rely on their clinch to grab ahold of opponents and then land several quick blows to gradually wear them down. Their weaknesses are that they're often at a disadvantage during close range fighting, and that their tactics often make them repetitive, which can lose them points with the crowd and make it more difficult to build momentum to a Blazing Move. Their class specific KO method is getting an opponent in a strong clinch while the opponent's health is low; they can land up to 7 blows this way, and when the opponent is dangerously low on health the last blow will turn into a finisher. Street Fighters are brawlers who specialize in fisticuffs, and their knockout punch the haymaker is one of the most powerful attacks in the game, capable of taking off a chunk of an opponent's life bar with a single hit, and capable of doing fight changing damage if several are landed close together. Their weaknesses are their overspecialization (a street fighter's punches are lethal, but their kicks and grappling abilities are mediocre, but relying purely on punches will make a street fighter predictable), and that their most powerful attacks (particularly the haymaker), often have a big windup that allows an opponent to see them coming. Furthermore their strongest attacks also have a long recovery period that will leave the street fighter open to a counterattack if those attacks miss. Wrestlers are the Mighty Glacier: immensely strong and with many powerful, high impact throws and slams, (and they possess some truly devastating moves that can be used in conjunction with either the crowd or a partner in a team match) but slow, not great at defense, and having noticeably poorer striking abilities than the classes listed above. Wrestlers knock out opponents by getting them in a strong grapple, and if opponents are in the danger zone, any move out of a strong grapple will finish them off. Submission fighters are the Mechanically Unusual Fighter of the group; while most other fighting styles aim for knocking an opponent out, a submissionist picks a target on an opponent's body and keeps working it over until the opponent is forced to give up. On the plus side this means a submissions fighter can instantly make up for even a severe difference in health if they can just do enough damage to the target limb to make their opponent give up, handing them a victory even if their opponent had otherwise dominated the match. On the downside, continually using the same holds on the same limb will not endear them to the crowd, making a blazing move harder to build up to, and while the submission style can do a little bit of everything, it can't compete with the other styles in their specialized areas. | |

Ass Kicks You: Certain Blazin' Moves involve landing butt-first into the enemy's spine.note Lumbar for most, cervical for Lauren. In all cases, the cracking of bones only makes it more painful. | |

One Stat to Rule Them All | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_b798d379 | comment |
One Stat to Rule Them All: In the story mode of Fight for NY, many of the AI controlled opponents are built around power. Increase your speed every chance you get and you can run rings around them, easily counter their moves, and hit them before they have a chance to react. Similarly, in player vs player matches, speed is seen as absolutely essential in order to be competitive. | |

True Companions: In Fight for NY, the player character clearly values the loyalty of his friends and is reluctant in betraying them, despite effectively having their friendships and reputation tarnished after being blackmailed by Crow. This comes to a head when the player character helps save his last friend Blaze after being ordered to kill him. Afterwards, all of the player character's old friends and allies turn up to help fight Crow's crew, assuring him that they have his back. | |

Why Don't Ya Just Shoot Him?: In Fight for NY, D-Mob provides a justification for not shooting Crow when Sticky suggests this. Namely, it would bring the cops down on their heads to get guns involved. He should know because this is what he did in Vendetta. Crow tells Magic to do this when he hesitates to shoot the player character. This leads to Magic having his Heel–Face Turn. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Most of the stages that have Ring Outs as a way of winning the fight involve breaking through a barrier of some kind to make the Ring Out possible. Many a player has set up such a ring out for their opponent, only to suffer a sudden reversal and see a couple of quick hits send them flying through the very hole in the ring that they created. | |

Updated Re-release: Fight for NY was re-released on the PlayStation Portable as Def Jam: Fight for NY: The Takeover, which includes a new storyline, four new stages (one of them in a ship) and updated fighting mechanics — most notably, random pre-fight actions, a mount position, more chances to KO your opponent, extra moves / counters such as dirt throwing, and the option to repeat fighting styles for the created character. However, some things were removed, such as cutscenes, tag fights, the Inferno Match and smaller Demolition Matches. | |

Blaze is badly injured and the player gets shoved onto the ground before their tag fight with Crack and Magic. Blaze starts out with less health and the player is already on the floor when the match starts. Likewise, the player is on the floor and injured when the fight with Crow begins since the latter Back Stabbed the former with a Sword Cane just a moment prior. Crow is also holding a weapon when the fight begins. | |

Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_f163b235 | comment |
Rival Turned Evil: Sticky in Fight for NY. He starts the game as an established lieutenant of D-Mob, and is always the most likely to dismiss or denigrate your character. As you gain favor with D-Mob and become part of the inner circle, Sticky seems to be losing favor with the boss due to things like showing up late for important meetings. As this happens, his jealousy of and competition with the player character only seem to increase. When Crow suggests a one-on-one fight between members of the gangs to settle the feud, Sticky urges D-Mob to agree, obviously expecting to be chosen as D-Mob's champion fighter. When D-Mob chooses you instead, Sticky angrily storms away. After this he joins Crow's crew, participating in activities like the attempted hit on D-Mob, attacking the player character and informing him that his girlfriend has been kidnapped (and likely was part of the kidnapping as well), and is the one Crow assigns to murder the player character's girlfriend at the end of the game. | |

Undying Loyalty: The player character in Fight for NY is this to D-Mob, his crew and his girlfriend. This gets tested when Crow abducts said girlfriend and blackmails him with her life and forcing him to fight against D-Mob's crew. Even then the player character is reluctant in doing so and only doing so to save his girlfriend's life, ultimately refusing when the time comes to execute one of his friends. This in turn gets him to rally D-Mob's crew against Crow's once the latter's actions are revealed. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: Most of the special match variants in Fight for NY count, where you can throw people into their own cars, a ring of fire, and out of windows. | |

Have a Gay Old Time | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_fa6bfde9 | comment |
Have a Gay Old Time: A surprisingly modern example. Busta Rhymes' "I'm built to smash you, pot'nuh!" intro line hits a bit differently these days. | |

The Dog Bites Back | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_fb3576b2 | comment |
The Dog Bites Back: Discussed. D-Mob explains that it's better to run ones gang through respect rather than fear as Crow does, even using the analogy of a beaten dog turning against its abusive owner. Sure enough, many of Crow's surviving crew, like Crack, WC and Magic, abandon him. | |

Skyward Scream: Many fighters do this during their Blazin' Taunt in Fight For NY. | |

Gondor Calls for Aid | |
Def Jam Series (Video Game) / int_fe5e40e2 | comment |
Gondor Calls for Aid: D-Mob's in prison. The player character went rogue and beat the ever living shit out of every one of D-Mob's soldiers. Blaze, who has been shot and crippled, makes one last-ditch, desperate response. "We went outside the family, called in a heavy hitter from Baltimore." It almost works. | |
