Def Jam Vendetta 2 announced (Update 4/7 - screens now included!)

[Jeremy]

Yes, although that one is coming to the PS2, not to the GC, like the first UM game.

Gamespot says....

Actually, the press release "said"...

Slick Rick!? I don't keep up on the Rap scene, but is this the same Slick Rick from the early 90's with the Eye patch, that sang that song "I shouldn't have done it"? I have that on tape

yeah he came back a little in the late 90s with a new record after he got out of jail (not sure if hes made any records since that one though). and i think he wears a diamond studded eye patch now.
if only they could get chinaman in there. then you could have the ultimate tag team of eye patch and gimp arm.

Slick Rick also had a song on WWE vol.5 with The Rock called "Pie".

I got some screens of the game to post. Updating in a sec.

Edit: Resized for your happy monitors!

Thank you, those are much better. I'm really loving the character models - I hope they aren't doctored...

[Jeremy]

Those look WAY too perfect, and there almost looks to be some wrestling in there, maybe.

[Korly]

That shit looks hot.

Get me a video, I need to see some wrestling.

[bahn]

Worthplaying.com had a trailer, but I think they ended up taking them down for bandwidth reasons.

The main feature I want from this game is create a fighter. Without that are at least some individual storylines, this will likely be nothing more than a rental for me.
