Def Jam: Fight for NY

D-Mob is arrested by NYPD cops Starks and Jervis and placed in the back of their cop car when an SUV hits it, causing it to flip over on its back. D-Mob crawls out of the wreckage and boards the SUV as Starks catches a glimpse of the suspect before passing out. The Hero and D-Mob are greeted by Crow, and his henchmen: Magic, Crack, and Trejo. Warning D-Mob that Club 357 will be under his control, Crow announces he's accepting fighters in return for more cash. The announcement causes D-Mob to lose some of his clubs and several of his fighters siding with Crow, like WC. The hero defeats several of Crow's crew before his girlfriend is kidnapped and he is forced to switch sides. Eventually, he frees his girl and takes out Crow.
