Def Jam: Icon Music To Affect Game Play
Electronic Arts recently announced that the 29-song tracklist for their upcoming brawler Def Jam: Icon for the PS3 and Xbox 360.
While the song list will be of interest to some, I found it more interesting that EA is saying that "music affects how players fight in each environment and avoiding hazards become a key strategy to staying alive."
"The Def Jam Interactive/EA partnership continues to be one centered around innovation. For the first time in any video game, the music is completely interactive. DEF JAM: ICON allows players to use these songs, as opposed to playing them in the background. And not only is there an incomparable soundtrack of today and tomorrow's hottest music, but now we guarantee the player with an authentic hip-hop lifestyle experience", said Lauren Wirtzer, Vice President of Marketing, Def Jam Enterprises.
The game will also allow you to import your own music into the game, which should, according to EA, also drive the environment and gamplay. Cool concept, but I'm really going to have to see it in action to decide how much it really changes gameplay.
Hit the jump for the full list of song that come with the game.
