Why is it so difficult for us to get another game like this? It doesn't even have to be Def Jam. It's always the awesome games that never get remade. And when they do it's gonna be half assed.
There's so much licensing and copyright crap these days. One company will own everything. There used to be NFL Blitz, QB Club, Madden, NFL Fever, NFL 2K, etc. Now, Madden owns the rights. It's the same with basketball and stuff. Nickelodeon, Sony, Microsoft and Disney won't allow others to make stuff. So we can't get other studios to produce games. It sucks sometimes.
Need me a wrestling game like that, none of that WWE 2K crap, I’m talking a nice mostly realistic game with nice sound design on the punches but some goofy stuff here and there
The best blazin move for each fighting style (for me) Kb - Game Over - Lil' Flip Sf - Pushover - Capone Ma - Rocksteady - Crazy Legs Wr - Flatline - Cruz Sm - Call the Ambulance - Magic
It's never gonna get remastered To be able to afford most licenses for the Music and Rappera would cost a lot more nowdays then it did in 2004. It wouldnt be impossible but if you've been keeping up with NFS, Madden or Fifa then you'd know EA has gotten a lot greedily in these past 20 Years. No way they spending that kinda Money
@@BLACKSTA361Hell, EA barely wanted to pay the artists their worth back in 04. The artist and celebrities was getting paid pennies literally for their likeness in the game by EA. According to DMX they was getting paid 50 cent for every copy sold of a 50-60 dollar game ,that’s why he wasn’t in Fight for New York because they wasn’t getting paid shit. A lot of the artist did it because they seen it as good publicity to appear in a popular video game and plus some of them was gamers themselves so it was dream opportunity for them. But you’re absolutely right, remastered version or a sequel will never work in 2024. This game was a product of its time that can’t be replicated or remastered.
Not only that, I would also like to see prequels that are an improvement away from Def Jam: ICON. One called called Def Jam: Old Skool (1980s) and Def Jam: Fight For LA (1990s). Where we play as characters in teams (like in The King of Fighters) of legendary rapper such as N.W.A., Public Enemy, KRS ONE, Run D.M.C., Beastie Boys, Geto Boys, Salt-N-Pepa, 2 Live Crew, Digital Underground, Naughty by Nature, X-Clan, EPMD, etc.
Fun fact. D-mob is played by Christopher judge. Who also voices Kratos.
His first voice acting role as well
Nice haha
1:12
Yes Douglas Christopher Judge is the voice of D-Mob
Boy
In all my damn years I didn't realize sean Paul did a backflip into a superman punch....that's some cold shit
Super cold when you use it in the game
i stay beating up Nore because he be hating on Tupac
To be that’s the best blazin in the fame

17:31 house payback
But then getting punching bag again💀
Lol
I mean him and pockets had it coming 😂🤣
Lol
I really wish EA would remake this game for new gen consoles!!!
For this class of game released in 2004, the graphics were very good for their time
I mean, the game was made by EA, they meant REAL quality back then.
R.I.P. Chris Lighty aka "Baby Chris" and Prodigy.
?
@@Blackdragon21 Two of the fighters in the game. They've passed away.
Nobody cares about those meth heads
Prodigy from mobb deep rest in peace cousin
4:22 "Say something now, come on say something now!"
Can we all agree that Manny is THE OG?
Yess!!
Flava Flav’a battle cry has got to be the best part about this 😂
Probably the only reason he was in this game🤣🤣
Yeah Boy!!!!
The thing I’ll always remember him by is getting kicked in the face on The Eric Andre Show by Hannibal Buress.
5:12 OMG!!! I remember doing this shit with my brother 🤣🤣🤣
same, good times.
Ever since a 8 year old kid, I'll always remember Banner reminding me how to spell *M I S S I S S I P P I*
1:15 has me dying 💀💀💀. This guy out here singing opera😂

Crip walked 💀

Fighting games are kind of a dying breed as of now but yeah, a game like Def Jam would go hars today
@@crack4184you kind of wrong, but not totally. fighting games are in a renaissance 2024 is loaded with releases

Capone's Blazin' move is downright hilarious 😂
Banner has got to have one of the best celebration and all of gaming
Please bring this game back for the Ps5 better graphics more combos would be crazy 🔥🙏🏾 + seeing freeway & prodigy was dope best dress in game
16:09 Bo got the cleanest blazin move in the game 🤦♂️🔥 sheesh lookin like a Mighty Mouse Demetrious Johnson finish
That's shining gangsta
The best blazin move for each fighting style
(for me)
Kb - Game Over - Lil' Flip
Sf - Pushover - Capone
Ma - Rocksteady - Crazy Legs
Wr - Flatline - Cruz
Sm - Call the Ambulance - Magic
Another one
Kb - 2.13.61 - Henry Rollins
Sf - Front 2 Back - Xzibit
Ma - 187 - Crow
Wr - Repeat Offender - D-Mob
Sm - House Call - House

When you can finally play the game when your uncle is not around
What do you mean?
😂😂😂😂
@@RevaliHeeHo uncle was whooping ass lol
Or big cousins lmaooo.
12:22 Scarface had a killer one
Fun fact: the rhythm to his move (specifically when he punches him on his knee) is a reference to the "shave and a haircut" cartoon bit.
if it wasn't for this game i wouldn't have known who Scarface was i always thought Mack 10 was Ice Cube as a kid
19:28 aieeeeeiyaa!!
Pockets the best!!!!
7:44 is my favorite...there's just something about it...i have it as the up finisher on ever character i make.
WC had the funniest blazing move in the whole game 😂
@1:37 perfection
😂😂😂
Bruh, forgot how big the roster was in this! A remake would make bank
A remake would cost hundreds of MILLIONS and then you'd have to get rights from every single artist
Or imagine a new game to this with the current artists, plus the OG characters from Def Jam 1 as unlockables or DLC
Lol Bubba's special, the Southern Hang. A euphemism for lynching. Gawd damn, this game is unhinged and I love it!
8:58 YEAH BOIIIII!!!
The first YEAH BOOOIIII before the meme😂😂

Tf is taking so long to remaster this game, some of us are trying so hard to keep this game alive
It's never gonna get remastered
To be able to afford most licenses for the Music and Rappera would cost a lot more nowdays then it did in 2004.
It wouldnt be impossible but if you've been keeping up with NFS, Madden or Fifa then you'd know EA has gotten a lot greedily in these past 20 Years. No way they spending that kinda Money

2:16
my ultimate roast catchphrase is literally this one
House got such a demotion from def jam one to two. He was hard to beat in one but a pushover in two
17:44 that's straight up murder
17:40 "That was for Joe!" - Slim Charles
Redman was definitely talking big crazy 😂
I use to love this game so much.
Kazuma Kiryu should be a dlc character when Def Jam Fight For NY gets remastered
Even the jewelry vendor kicked house's ass 😅
My favorite character is banner
Brooooooooo I just realized oe was Omar Epps as kids I bet none of us knew this !!!
The laugh of Bonecrusher 😂😂😂😂
NORE & Ghostface were always my favorite characters to use .. gotta get this game again so I can use Prodigy & others I didn’t know at the time
6:30 was always my favorite
Best finishers I seen is
Lil flip
Scarface
Mack 10
Comp
WC
DAVID BANNER
Who else thinks that game deserves a remake?
Bone crusher has the best call out..attention!!!!

Crow: yeah homie. don't worry, y'all get life insurance.
Sean Paul said RASSSCLATTT 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If they remade def jam that would be awesome
Plus u can make a character
I would want to make a petition for EA to remake this game but i know getting the rights and artists back on here would be a problem
Not only that, I would also like to see prequels that are an improvement away from Def Jam: ICON.
One called called Def Jam: Old Skool (1980s) and Def Jam: Fight For LA (1990s).
Where we play as characters in teams (like in The King of Fighters) of legendary rapper such as N.W.A., Public Enemy, KRS ONE, Run D.M.C., Beastie Boys, Geto Boys, Salt-N-Pepa, 2 Live Crew, Digital Underground, Naughty by Nature, X-Clan, EPMD, etc.
Havoc and ghost face finisher was slept on
What does Flava Flav’s intro make me laugh every time??
Snoman did that Brock Lesnar suplex city for his finisher
