The unlikely combination of Def Jam recording artists and underground wrestling is the subject of this Electronic Arts release, which features the 3D likenesses of such musicians as Ludacris, Redman, DMX, Scarface, Ghostface Killa, Method Man, and more as playable characters.

Developed by AKI Corporation, whose previous experience in the genre includes WWF No Mercy and WCW/NWO Revenge, Def Jam Vendetta offers an estimated 1,500 animations for each of the 45 included characters. A total of ten different venues are available, and one of the featured modes offers a storyline complete with soap opera-style drama to go along with the suplexes and body slams. Up to four players can compete in Single, Tag-Team, Handicap, or Battle Royale matches.

Features:
Take to the streets with one of 40 different fighters including Ludacris, Redman, DMX, and Method Man
Pound your opponent with special moves and combos
Brawl alone or challenge friends to such modes of play as Single, Tag-Team, Handicap, or Battle Royale
