How does it look bad? FN2 for the PS2 had weak people in the background.

The Good: The wrestlers.
The Bad: The crowd. I'm not expecting the same quality as the wrestlers, but putting them that close to the wrestlers is a huge clash of aesthetics.
The Ugly: One on One matches only. WTF?

Yeah your right. The crowd is too close. I think they should have less amount of people in the crowd too.

So let me guess here: this is going to be a near perfect port of Def Jam Fight For NY with visuals that match that of the PS2 and gameplay to boot. However, it would take about 3 minutes to load matches as opposed to 30 seconds and it's going to have awkward contols. Oh, and it's going to cost $49.99 while the PS2 version has already hit greatest hits status and I can pick it up for less than $20...
Seriously, I'm ready for some original games here...take an existing property if you want, I don't care, but at least give us something fresh. Blah.

Jesus christ, there are so many things wrong here my eyes crossed.nicholasbrutal said:
It's a shallow fighter, if you compare it to titles like tekken, soul calibur, street fighter, etc. that's why you get bored after some matches.Fusebox said:karlikk, I've never played it before but I'm not usually attracted to shallow titles like this when I'm at home, I prefer online rpgs and larger scale titles.
But I'm out on the road and feel like a 10 minute bash though I reckon it'll be perfect.
Let's hope it has multiplayer, cuz that's what got the most out of the game [imo].

Playstation PORTable in da mutha fukkin hizousssssse
wow, this was a must buy for me, but perhaps now it isn't since it is limited to 1on1 matches. I already have my smackdown as well...I loved the battle royals of the old def jam game... I think I'll just put the money toward Street Fighter Alpha 3 max, and the new def jam on Xbox 360. Looks like I'll be giving Fight Night on PSP a bigger look as well.

Nemesis was horrible on every system, including consoles. The Def Jam games are atleast good on consoles.
Vice City is one of my favourite games. I love Halo, I enjoy Killzone, I play Counter Strike for hours on end, etc etc etc. Other than that, sure, I'm biased in that I'm more forgiving towards generic Japanese pop culture than I am towards generic Western pop culture. Here's the reason. Asian pop culture is basically harmless. You can say a lot of things about it, but it's not geared towards hurting other people. Big plus in my book. Western pop culture currently has a strong lean towards things that glorify violence and crime, and it's not fantasy crime, it's realistic crime and violence. Something is seriously wrong with going in that direction if you ask me, so I speak up against it.bishoptl said:

I'm no Nintendo fan. Never was, probably never will be. I was basically just commenting on what I consider a very unfortunate trend. See above.

Anyone know if there is a DS ver. of this?
callous said:
So you hate realistic crime and violence, yet have no issue killing, murdering, triggering gang wars, engaging in hit-and-runs, witness intimidation, extortion of businesses and the promotion of pornography in Vice City. Or shooting people online using quasi-realistic weaponry in Counterstrike for hours on end. But throw into the mix hip-hop thugs punching each other in the street, and suddenly the world is going down the shitter?callous said:
Right. You're a hypocrite.
bishoptl said:
I don't hate realistic crime and violence. My problem is with the popularization of street thug culture. A culture where it's cool to be the bad guy. That said, triggering gang wars, intimidating witnesses, extorting businesses and taking on a horde of swat/terrorists isn't something that's really a part of pop culture or something that's attainable by your average Joe. Getting a tribal tattoo and beating someone up after dark is. What's more, it's currently being made to look cool. Being the bad guy is cool. At least in your average, fruitily generic Japanese game, however much violence there might be in it, it's about the good guys winning. Those who fight to stop people who threaten the safety of others.
Anyway, I didn't list those games because I condone what goes on in them, I'd be quite happy to see future sandbox games a la GTA stray from the crime formula, I listed them to let you know that I'm not at all biased in a way that prevents me from enjoying a game with violent, Western content.
Basically, I'd just like to see Western, and particularly American, because it's so influential, culture go back in a direction where being the good guy is cool. I think society needs it.
But hey, if you want to believe I'm just a Japanophilic hypocrite and dissect my words to make it look like that's all there is to it, so be it. I've stated my case. I'll make sure I don't fire off potentially inflammatory one-liners in future Def Jam threads, though.
Oh and also, I really just think this game looks kinda ass
Trust me, you were doing better when I thought you were just a Japanophile. That culture where it's "cool to be the bad guy" is front and center in Vice City, one of your admitted favourite games. I guess that only applies in certain situations and for certain people. My bad.
And obviously you haven't even played the Def Jam Fight For New York game, or you'd realize that the storyline reflects the values you hold oh-so-dear. So not only are you a hypocrite, you haven't done a modicum of research into this thug culture game which is threatening America's youth. Well done.

I can only assume you haven't read or understood my previous post. I clearly say I don't think what goes on in Vice City is positive. That doesn't hinder me from acknowledging that it's brilliant game design.bishoptl said:
You're absolutely right, I haven't. Like hundreds of other gaffers do every day, I commented on a bunch of screenshots. So shoot me (and most of the forum).bishoptl said:
I looked it up, though, and it looks like I was fairly spot on when judging those screenshots.
If you call that the good guys winning or being on the good guys' team, then it's no wonder we're not seeing eye to eye on things.
Anyway, you seem quite set on how you want to percieve me, and I'm fine with that. At least, I can't be bothered to spend more time debating it. Not because I don't think it's interesting, but because I've been as precise as I feel should be necessary for people to understand what I'm talking about and because we're past the point where further input is likely to result in any major output. I can sleep without everyone agreeing
callous said:
And if you actually played the game on the PS2 you'd know there's another level to D-Mob's character(at one point one of his subordinates wants to resort to gun violence to solve their problems), D-Mob absolutely positively refuses and even IMO gets a bit preachy about it.
But you wouldn't know that because you've already made your incorrect judgement call on what this game is about. Which certainly isn't to say this is some holier than thou game.
You should probably leave this thread and just go beat some more hookers with a baseball bat.
IF I'm understanding you correctly:
Street Thug Culture = Bad
Mob Culture = Good
WTF?
