Which system do you have it for? I don't get very much noticable frame rate issues on the GC.

I think the loading times are really gay. The game is fun all in all though, has anyone actually got to play 4 player with it? I cant seem to get my multi tap to work.

I took it back earlier (after finishing the main part of the story mode).

I did enjoy the story, and the ending was kinda cool, but as a fighting game it's not that good.

The UK version of it does, apparently.

Either way, I bought it today based on all the praise for it in here, if I hate it, you all die.

Yeah I've noticed when there's 4 players on screen on the PS2 version it can slow down a bit at times but it's nothing horrible.

I finished story mode, which was awesome, although I rented the game Saturday and just finished it today (Tuesday), so it was either a) real short or b) real addictive.

Sean Paul and Elephant Man were pretty hard as well.

I kicked Flava Flav (Foofi)'s ass in like 45 seconds though

Dude. Remember that Funky Fly was singing the praises of CUSTOM FUCKING ROBO.

Anyway, FFNY has a lot of qualities I'd like to see in a fighting/wrestling game. Solid options, a lot of shit to "earn," Many many bad guys to beat up, a lot of levels with some cool interaction...

...But really, the fighting engine's shit. While not quite a button masher, the strategy involved is lackluster and unimpressive, except within certain gimmick fights in the story mode and such. Hit detection sucks, and the AI leads me to believe they were too busy rimming the Def Jam rappers to actually pay attention to what they were doing. I applaud AKI for trying something new, but this crap is something I'd expect from Smackdown. Hey! We added an in depth CAW so you won't notice the glaring flaws in our game engine!

Custom Robo's actual gameplay is fun for a couple of days. I have no idea what they were trying to do with the "RPG" thing though.

And I love fight for New York. If you don't like it, I can see why, but that doesn't mean I have to hate it too. We probably like very different kinds of games.

Which merited your usual worthless "hotttttt" rating.

It's less about hating the games you like and more about pointing out how impotent most of the feedback one gets on this site is.

I understand I'm more picky, and that multiplayer seems to make you cum your panties no matter how bad the game is, but it's not really about that.

This game was hot. I rented it and played it all the way through the first few days it was out. I tried every combination of fighter i could. Submission fighter is hard as hell to start with. Fat Joe pisses me off just doing the Pedigree over and over. But it was very addicting. I wish you could unlock some of the suits that D Mob wears.
