COMMENTS
Aki know how to make wrestling games. Def Jam Vendetta features the best gameplay since WWF No Mercy on the N64. The story mode is interesting and fun. It is kinda short but it would have been any longer it would've been too repetitive. There are tons of characters but considering its a Def Jam game there aren't many Def Jam artists. There is also a lack of match types. There aren't any special matches such as TLC or cage. If you are a hip-hop fan you will love the music. Overall its an excellent wrestling game but the low number of match types and Def Jam artists brings it down a couple notches.
