(TMZ) The Game got right up in the face of the man who claims the rap superstar hit him outside a Hollywood nightclub and there is new, up-close footage of the incident.

Breyon Williams says he was trying to shoot video of R&B singer Mario outside Colony early Tuesday morning, when Game approached them. In the video … you can see and hear that Game and his posse want the camera turned on him.

Williams tries to explain he will interview Game right after Mario … but Game gets pissed, when Williams says, “He [Mario] don’t want to help you.” Game spins right into the camera lens and yells, “Nigga, help me?” Then someone hits Williams and/or his camera — and the camera cuts off.

We’re told The Game denies hitting anyone, but the video makes it clear someone made physical contact with Williams.

Williams filed a police report and says he suffered facial swelling and headaches. He says he’s planning on filing a lawsuit. The fight is under investigation … so far no arrests have been made.
