      30, if you are combining 3 styles, and 20, if you're combining 2 styles.

    The great thing about the Blazin moves is that the rappers gave their input on what the moves should look like which is awesome because it definitely shows off their personalities and stage personas.

    • @shawnfields2369
      @shawnfields2369 Před 2 lety +21

      I agree; it's very awesome, and I think out of all the ones I saw my personal favorites were(in no particular order): Doc(you know , the dude with the best intro who clearly may or may not be Redman from the Wu-Tang Clan, but I can't be too sure on that), Ludacris, Prodigy, Sean Paul, David Banner, Ghostface Killah, Crazy Legs, Slick Rick, Ice-T, Lil' Flip, Lil' Kim, Dan G(the dude with the spin kick he uses on that guy House), and while I don't know every single rapper in the game, mostly everyone here had an amazing Blazin Move, straight out of a wrestling game, or even a Street Fighter game. Even some of the more whack looking Blazin Moves didn't feel or look awful, and I felt the impacts were really on point. Damn, I wish I'd gotten to play this game back in the day, because I was a fan of some of these rappers in the game, and still am, but I would've loved to play as some of these guys and beat the absolute crap out them especially with Ghostface Killah's Blazin Move. Too bad these moves don't have individual names, because I'd love to hear and see what the names would be. But that's legitimately great that literally each rapper in game had gave their input on what the moves should look like; even if some of them were whack, like House's, which is the whackest Blazin Move ever. His is just a submission choke. I know he's a big dude, but still, that was whack, and it looked weak. Glad to know that Ghostface wanted his Blazin to be him spinning someone around, breaking them over his back, and then, suplexing them back down. That was just awesome. And it's also awesome, how Sean Paul wanted to kick someone several times in the air, spin around, and then end it with a leg drop on their gut, because I liked it a lot. And I don't even like Sean Paul, honestly. But even if I don't like or even know who most of these rappers are, it's nice to see that a lot of them have sick finishers, with amazing impacts. I really wish I could've played this game when it came out, it still looks GREAT; for a GCN/PS2/Xbox era game, I mean that in a good way, no sarcasm here. I just wish I didn't start playing this series with Icon, the one game in this series that we don't talk about here because it was so bad, it killed the Def Jam games. Which is a shame; these Blazin Moves were awesome and I'd have loved to been able to play a 4th game on the Switch somehow. Or even if they were somehow able to port Def Jam: Fight For NY to the Switch, or it's sequel, Vendetta, which people really hated for some reason. Either way, the Blazin Moves were some of the sickest moves I've ever seen in any fighting game; and knowing that rappers like Ludacris wanted his Blazin Move to be him springboarding off you, and then, while still in the air, elbow dropping you, right in the face, that's awesome, and also, it's insane, but in all the right ways. But if I had to rank my own personal Top 12 Blazin Moves in the game, I'd definitely go with:
      1st: Ghostface Killah
      2nd: Doc
      3rd: Ludacris
      4th: Lil' Flip
      5th: Ice-T
      6th: Sean Paul
      7th: Prodigy
      8th: Dan G
      9th: Crazy Legs
      10th: Lil' Kim
      11th: Slick Rick
      12th: David Banner. But those are just my own opinions on which Blazin Moves I thought looked the best. Honorable Mentions to: Scarface(the dude who's Blazin went before Sean Paul's), Xzibit, Bonecrusher, W.C., Magic, Crow(Snoop Dogg), and to Warren G; for having some cool Blazin Moves as well. Sorry if this seemed like it went on forever. But I just really love this game, and rap as a genre. You just rarely, if ever; get to see an amazing game like this come along. It's special to be able to have had a game like this come along, and either hear about it, or play it and see how awesome it is for yourself. And this game, "Def Jam: Fight For NY" was definitely one of them.

    The comp special is a mandible claw basically. Comp is from Baltimore and he was born with 2 fingers on one of his hands resembling a claw. He used to be called the baltimore claw..

    Legendary game. Funny that franchise was once made for WWE but they didnt reach a deal. So they went with Rappers.
    EDIT: Also Max, Matt McMuscles and Bless are great friends....

    FFNY is my favorite game of all time honestly. The atmosphere, the presentation, the gameplay, the music, all of it was so, SO perfect.

    Used to play the shit out of this game on my cousin ps2 and later on emulators.
    I always build my CAC with these 4 which are my favourites:
    14:00
    17:08
    35:19
    36:28 - Street Respect is my favourite blazin' in this game despite being the most basic. i love this so much that i trained it a lot when a kid to reproduce it in somebody in an eventual fight, LOL

    Definitely one of the best games from the PS2 era. These new Pussifed developers could never create greatness like this game ever again.

      They can’t because it’s more about licensing and actually paying the celbrities
