Def Jam Vendetta Cheats For GameCube

  1. Girlfriend Gallery

    During the girl vs girl matches, you have the option of choosing either girl. Below is written like the following:

    If you pick the new girl and win, then you'll get the new girl and unlock 25% of her pictures.

    If you pick the new girl and lose, then you'll stick with your old girl and get no pictures of either girl.

    If you pick the current girlfriend and win, you'll unlock 75% of her gallery.

    If you pick the current girlfriend and lose, then you'll unlock no new pictures.

    The last line of pictures in all the girl's galleries can only be unlocked by going through story mode with that girl as your girlfriend (for the majority of the story mode).
