Guest Nevermortal Report post Posted August 11, 2002 As reported earlier, EA is working on a new title under their BIG label, based on DefJam rappers. The game, currently titled DefJam Wrestling, will feature the following rappers: -Method Man -Ludacris -Redman -Capone -Scarface -WC -N.O.R.E. It is likely that more characters will also be available. Just who in the blue mother fuck would buy this? Did they not learn anything from that horrible Wu Tang Clan game on Playstation. What person can honestly say "I'd really like to wrestle as Method Man and fighting Ludacris."? If you can honestly say that, I'd like to smack you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest KingOfOldSchool Report post Posted August 11, 2002 lol. But I can honestly say that I would rent this for a weekend, just to beat the hell out of rappers I hate with Meth and Redman. But I would never waste the going price for a game on what's due to be an ill-fated and stupid idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Nevermortal Report post Posted August 11, 2002 Maybe they'll have a create a wrestler/superstar so people can make Zakk Wylde & Kerry King to kill all the rappers with Piledrivers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest KingOfOldSchool Report post Posted August 11, 2002 One would hope. But if there is a CAW, it'll probably only have basic body parts to create other rappers or something like that. But I'm not sure how the BIG games work, since I'm still stuck with an n64. I don't even know if they have "Creation" features at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Karnage Report post Posted August 11, 2002 It's an EA wrestling game which means a Backstage Assault/Mayhem gaming engine if they didn't bother making a new one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cynicalprofit Report post Posted August 11, 2002 If I can CAW in the game, its gonna be fun as hell to be a white boy beating the unholy crap outta rich rappers who talk about how good they gotta it from the surburan kids money. Ill wait till it comes out before i say it truly sucks...but im not giving it much hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest AndrewTS Report post Posted August 12, 2002 Ahhhhh..I guess the HUGE success of Rap Jam Volume 1 spawned this idea. I really hate rap, and I think a majority of wrestling fans due too. So likely the only ones to buy this will be the minority of wrestling fans who listen to rap, and rap fans who were never into wrestling/wrestling games before. Since it's Def Jam, I guess we STILL don't get the privilege of killing Puff Daddy, eh? Damnit. There better be plenty of blood, and if it plays like Backstage Assault, it's screwed. Of course, people will buy it anyway. Wrestling + music (especially rap) = wrestlecrap Wrestling + non-wrestling license = crap (Simpsons Wrestling, anyone?) Anyone remember the No Limit Soldiers invading WCW? WCW? Anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Sandman9000 Report post Posted August 14, 2002 Well, I did a control scheme for Backyard Wrestling, might as well do a control scheme for this one. A Button: Wussy punch (Especially if you play as Vanilla Ice) B Button: Do drugs X Button: Drink from 40 Y Button: Slap ho L Button: Sample R Button: Draw gun, then deny you ever had one. Yeah, this game is gonna suck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Sandman9000 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Your right, your right. Double tap the R button to run from the cops, since, well, after you have pulled out a gun... Also, L button now has the give cliched interview, instead of sample. So the controls look like this: A: Throw wussy punch B: Do drugs X: Drink from 40 Y: Slap ho L: Give cliched interview R: Draw gun, then deny you have a gun Double tap R to run from the cops.
