Def Jam: Fight For NY Goes Gold
Electronic Arts announced today that Def Jam: Fight for NY, the sequel to last years Def Jam Vendetta, has gone gold. When it ships on September 20, the fighting game will be available for the Xbox, GameCube, and PlayStation 2 for $49.99. It will also join a very select group--games from EA that are rated "M" for mature. Developed by EA Canada, Def Jam: Fight for NY expands on Vendetta. Instead of a mere wrestling game with rappers, the title is a story-driven brawler which incorporates five different fighting styles--kickboxing, street fighting, martial arts, submissions, and wrestling. Players create an all-original character with customizable appearance and voice. As the game progresses, players can further trick out their characters with designer clothes, tattoos, and various forms of bling. Of course, to earn the money for such items, they will have to duke it out with Def Jam artists like Busta Rhymes and Ludacris as well as other celebrities like Carmen Electra and Henry Rolllins.Source: http://www.gamespot.com
