Def Comedy Jam - All Stars Vol. 3 (DVD)

Advantages: Nothing to complain about
Disadvantages: Could have sqeezed one more show in

...I cannot comment in comparison to the rest of the series, as I have not seen the others, however I found this DVD which is a collection of three episodes of pure black comedy to be one of the best I'd ever seen. Its amazing how all of the acts are still as funny today, despite them all being performed 12 years ago, as I am only 15 it shows how you did not have to be there at the time to get the jokes. The O.J. Simpson trial is one of the main themes here, so it is evident that the process had recently been completed. There are various angles which th comedians go into concerning the matter, all obviously ending hilariously. Something which attracted me to buying this DVD out of the collection was the lin-up of many familiar faces who apparently had began their journey to success from this comedy series. Many of whom now are found... Read review

Advantages: GOOD SOUNDTRACK
Disadvantages: GAMEPLAY; VARIETY OF MOVES;

...Awful Awful Awful!!! Very disappointed with this game!! It only cost me £20 brand new but still felt that I was ripped off! You start off where, as usual you have a choice of characters to choose from, which there is a few who are the stars of the Def Jam Record label then you move on to fight!! Graphics aren't that good but the music is great as it's all pretty new Hip Hop music which appeals to me but then there's the gameplay!! That's when it gets ugly!! There are very few moves to use when you are fighting which is very poor for a fighting game, it's very slow and you don't have a health bar, you have to guess your health by the background colouring which I found very awkward to use. I played this a few times as I thought I was doing something wrong but the same happened every time. Again, very disappointed... Read review

Advantages: Wrestle as well-know rappers
Disadvantages: Nothing to do once complete

...simple for the game, far less complex than WWE SmackDown! games, however, if you are used to wrestling games then you will have only played that sereis and therefore it does take some time to get used to. I felt it took me a while to complete when a first got it. Once I did finish the story mode, I gave it to my sister and she managed to complete it over a weekend. This shows you that it is simple to pick up and play but I don't know how she beat D-Mob because he is like bosses from retro games in that he is stronger, and recovers faster than you or any other fighter. You cannot complain about the roster because eventhough it doesn't compare to the newer games, however now it's not just Def Jam members. Also the people used were the biggest stars of Def Jam in 2003. The fights are all fought within a ring (and outside of it) which is fully... Read review
