Def Jam Vendetta rocks my spandex.
It's basically No mercy with much improved graphics, no gay men in leotards and a lot faster smoother game play.
It's sooooo good. Because Aki haven't had to keep to a WWF license some of the moves are completly over the top and look brilliant. They're all pretty realistic and possible, it's just that if you did some of the special moves on people in real life, there's no doubt that they'd kill them.
For example one of my character's special moves, he snaps their back on his leg, punches them twice in the face then does a massive spinning pile driver so they land on the back of their neck.
Muchos TKO stylee.
The atmosphere in the game is great too. All the fights take place in arenas like strip bars and nightclubs and stuff, Funkmaster Flex is on the decks mixing the 'phat beats' as you fight and also commentating.
Whoever it was that said the control are unresponsiv on the PS2 demo either has a messed up controller or forgot to plug it in. The fights are so smooth and the contorls are great. The reversal system has been brought on a bit from No Mercy as well. At one point I was fighting Scar Face, we managed to get about 8 reversals at once, he revesed me I reversed him etc etc until I eventually flaw the punk. It looks sweet.

Nope, I've just beaten Noreaga and whooped a couple of guys after that.
The girlfriend fights are funny as hell, they got some damn lethal moves.

Do they have any special matches like Ladder?
I've just completed it on easy, got all stages, lost twice to Masa and Ghostface but still need to unlock two guys, don't know how to at the moment though. And how do you get the trophies? I've got all the belts but naff all in trophies.
And no Dringo, there are no WWE style matches apart from tag team and handicap. Should not put you off buying the game though, it's so sweet.

Not sure, I gotta play some more today.
Might have somehting to do with the tag team competition you enter?
Not sure, I'm doing it on medium and there hasn't been a single easy match...except for the 1 on 1 against Pee Wee, he's a girly man.

I'm going to give medium a go soon. The only thing I got in the tag team was 2 characters and the title. I'll have a look on the internet for clues.
Youve made me start playing it more now.
Lovely game.
Lovely game.
Well I know how to unlock the other two characters now, just got to simply complete story mode with all four characters.
Hehe
I bet for one of the secret characters you have to beat a certain ammount of opponents in survival.

Okay, I was wrong then.
Heh. I'm not going through it with Briggs. He has got a ace finisher.
