Def Jam Icon lets you pick your playlist

The iPod isn’t the only “place” where you can express your musical tendencies by downloading your favorite tracks and storing them for infinite play. You can also express that freedom with your PSP, Xbox 360 or PS3. The only catch to playing music on the consoles though, is that we only get to play a limited set of music titles that are included in the game. If we don’t like them, we would turn the volume down.

If you’re going to playElectronic Arts‘ Def Jam Icon, though, that era of limited music choice is over. This game does sound like a next-gen operetta, but in reality it’s a game that’ll eat, live, breathe, and kick hip hop ass. It’s going to be a melange of photorealistic rappers that’ll play their own roles in the game. And it’s going to be a game where you can create your own soundtrack and not have to be forced to play whatever title that you don’t like on the music playlist.

The XBLM and the PlayStation Network will make all the Def Jam Icon track downloads available by the time the title hits shelves on March 2007.
