It will be soon. Wink [;)]

And yes, the soundtrack is a pretty good one, but remember that you can upload your own songs and fight to them. I think the environment/background will also react to your custom music.

Sounds pretty cool.

Yeah, I hate when I notice very slight mistakes in my FAQs. I kind of feel bad asking a mod to change one or two words. I wish there was a way we could get editing power over our FAQs.

No date on when gamers can now expect the trial version featuring Big Boi and T.I. other than that it would be available "worldwide" sometime "soon."

"Def Jam: Icon has been rated M by the ESRB and 18+ by PEGI and the USK."

Not a big surprise there.
