Overview
Def Jam Rapstar is a music video game based on rapping, developed by 4mm Games and Terminal Reality. It was released on October 5, 2010 in North America and on November 26, 2010 in Europe.
Def Jam Rapstar is a rap-themed karaoke game. There are two modes, Career and Party modes. The Career mode is in five stages. Each stage has eight tracks for the player to master, including a New Song Challenge which is unlocked as the player progresses through the stage. The Party mode allows players to simply pick an individual song and perform it.
In using censored radio versions of every song in its setlist, Rapstar becomes the first Def Jam game to be rated Teen by the ESRB since Def Jam Vendetta. Players are also not obligated to sing profanities, and missing any does not affect their score.
The PlayStation 3 version received "generally favorable reviews", while the Xbox 360 and Wii versions received "mixed or average reviews" as reported by video game review aggregator Metacritic.
