@silan: Here's what I've got. Italicized portions are unclear. Transcriber notes are either wiki links when straightforward, or square-bracketed when more complex. Please feel free to comment on possible fixes.
Just Blaze is a hip hop record producer who worked on the soundtrack for NBA Ballers: Chosen One; apparently he allowed JV/DLeazy to use one of the beats from that for this.
Big ups to @fram and @alraiis for their assistance.
DLeazy and JV ain't playin' around
They some quadruple triple quintuple threats!
Gamin', drinkin', actin', gamin', wrestlin', rappin'
All that on lock, kid, on lock, kid, you know that
(you know that x4)
Just Blaze
Welcome to the return of the Super Smash Brothers
DLeazy and JVeezy introducing none other
Rap-up of the year for what? Giant Bomb
With a Just Blaze beat
Oh shit son, it's on
Mean muggin' like my name was Luigi
Girls always askin' me
You OK, JVeezy?
Yes I'm fine, OlliOlli olly oxen free
With my Vita in first class is where you can find me [OlliOlli is available on Vita.]
Shovelin' knights
And then we startin' fights
JV and DLeazy
Drink all the wine on this flight
Nidhogg's finally dropped - and not a moment too soon
Start crushing you at dawn
We go all afternoon
I'm stabbin' push screen
Yeah, and then I kill you like a germ
Throw this foil in your face
And get eaten by the worm [These last 7 lines are about Nidhogg's gameplay.]
We start with MPs like BJ Blazkowicz [possibly referencing MP40 gun from Wolfenstein?]
With wits throwin' fists and never do we miss
Killin' from the forties still two decades later [Wolfenstein: The New Order’s plot starts in 1946 and jumps to 1960.]
Say peace to Jimi Hendrix, say good, see you later [There’s a character in Wolfenstein who's basically Jimi Hendrix.]
Octodad's the only turn sim of the year
My whole screen's filled with limbs, JV pass the beer
I got this whole family fooled, so yo, don't snitch, [Octodad is about moving your limbs around and fooling your family into thinking you're a human.]
It's really kinda cool, but yo this lady's rich [Not sure of the reference here.]
You can pay people?
I'm sayin' rich!
Just, like, cut 'em up one time.
Bring it. [I don't know what these last four lines are about.]
Two sixes to twelve, two twelves to twenty-four
Like 2048? Yo' ass got the door [2048 is a free Threes! clone.]
Threes! got what you need to scratch that puzzlin' itch
Jam clone stoppin' Greg from gettin' old money, rich ["Jam clone" may refer to the fact that 2048 looks like a game-jam game - hastily produced. 2048, being a free clone, presumably prevented Greg Wohlwend, one of the developers of Threes!, from getting as rich as he could have.]
Like a referee, what?
Shit, we too official
When will Final Fantasy 7 be reissued?
Me and JV, droppin' verses without purpose
Bringin' Childs of Light and rhymes you can't purchase
Blast it up on the wall like Reggie's Splatoon
Can't rhyme about games that aren't out yet, dude!
Banner Saga brings the drama, like blunt head force trauma
Like dissin' Lady Gaga or my baby's mama
They say I'm not their image but I say I'm God-given,
Mr. Hard Livin' with Cristal sippin'
And with decadent definition?
Jin crossed with Ryu [with the Cristal reference above, "Jin" could be a pun on "gin"]
Uppercuttin' chickens with what? what? what? Shoryuken!
Advanced Warfighter, laser scope precision
Sneakin' market share from Bobby like my name was Snake Plissken [presumably talking about Advanced Warfighter competing with CoD. Also, Snake Plissken is from a movie, but the name is also associated with Solid Snake from the Metal Gear series, who is known to sneak.]
See my times on Trials, JV?
That's confusion
My replays don't make sense?
Must be illusion [not sure about this - maybe Trials Fusion had buggy replays or something.]
Beatin' my Ghost Rider is the same as beatin' me
Contusions for collusions, as soon you'll see
We never been fated, only settled for the best
Like Rayman without a net, we passin' every single test [no idea what this means.]
Clear a hole, make room, the champs is comin' through
Dr. Game about Games, Just Blaze brings the boom! [very unclear. Dr. Game & Watch, maybe? ...]
Stacked chips like a Pentium, Definitive Edition [presumably a pun on stacks of poker chips vs. computer chips. Also Definitive Edition referring to Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition.]
Raidin' tombs like Lara we're front-flippin' competition
Me and JV are down more than PSN! [PSN was down a lot, I guess.]
Or Xbox Live?
Tell it, yell it, spell it, best friend
Like a kid, we about to crush this beat like candy
I'm droppin' gold keys on Twitter like my name was Randy [Gearbox gave out codes for gold keys in Borderlands 2 on Twitter.]
We like them buddy cops, always gettin' into trouble
The track needs them green-lit on the double
How about Kane & Lynch part 3? [I guess JV and DLeazy, describing themselves as "buddy cops", are proposing that they star in a third Kane & Lynch game.]
Really, JV? Heheh
Can we get Jeff to maybe play the role of Joe Pesci?
Hand crampin' up like I was playin' that Atari
Oh shit, son, I'm sorry, this shit causes harm, B
It's just this blaze beat, this shit is so tawdry
DLeazy actin' naughty on this beat safari
You might think this rhyme is a tad bit garish
Or that me and JV should probably be embarrassed
Or Shepard will be counter-sniping from his boy Garrus
We Sunset Overdrived but we could never perish
And to end this quick, yup, you might question
Is this a song about ethics in journalism? [a reference to GamerGate.]
Nope, it's celebratin' the thing we all love
Giant Bomb 2014 rap-up, whaaaaat
