Damn, i forgot it's so soon. Shittiest day of the year for the internet. Tricking morons into thinking they can get free internet out of the crapper is boring and stupid.
There should be some kind of law that only a half a dozen websites should be allowed to pull pranks, and the rest just need to stfu and stick to there normal routine.

If it's a fake (which I'm sure it is), it's a damn good one. Someone took their time on it.

Well I'm not sure about this but it could be a screenshot taken from any recent PC game with a level editor. You could change any character skin and Voalá 50 cent killing terrorists.

Esc, you've never made a character model or designed a level have you? Trust me, it's hard work. Good old Mr Photoshop is more likely.

The reason for it's existence is simple: the original sold over a million copies.
Sad, but true.

Synner's an idiot. Since we're generalizing; based on your avatar I'm going to say that you're a skinny 5' 6" redneck from the hills of Tenn. with a Harley Davidson tattoo on your left shoulder and drives a beat up old Dodge Ram. Oh, don't think I forgot about the Skoal you have in your mouth and you spit into a use Pepsi bottle that you keep in the right hand pocket of your camouflage jacket.
On a serious note, unfortunately this game is for real b/c the first sold 1m copies.

According to the 1UP Yours podcast, it's even better than that.
50 Cent is in the Middle East to do a USO benefit show. After the show, he tries to get paid, but the producers say they don't have the cash. (This immediately establishes the educational benefits of the game. I had no idea that when entertainers went to do USO benefits, that they demanded fees for it)
Any way, the producers offer him the diamond encrusted skull in lieu of cash, and he's cool with that.
Only, some shady Arab is all like, "Yoinks! I'll take that!". And then Fitty is all, "I pity da fool that takes my skull" and starts hunting him all over the desert.
NOW do you think videogames can't be art, Ebert?!?

On behalf of white people everywhere, i would like to apologize for Pauly Shore's somewhat brief Hollywood popularity. While also long over due...having to endure shitty movie after shitty movie was uncalled for, and should be noted that we no way endorse his actions.

I second Chameleons comment and apologize on the behalf of black people not just for 50 Cent existing but starting the trend that all the other rappers will follow now that they figured out they can make a quick buck off of our life style.........Please forgive us guys.

It's true, the majority of people buying this game are mother's buying it for their suburban white 'wigger' sons. I know this from first hand experience (working at GameStop).
Also, ghetto people can't afford PS360's. :P

As GOD I apologize for the whole mess. However the Earth open Beta is nearly concluded and I hope to have everything fixed in time for the release date.
Please note: Characters from the beta cannot be carried over to the retail release.

So...this isn't an early aprils fool day joke? They can't honestly be thinking this was a good idea. It's one of those ideas where it's so awful, it just can't be real.
I have to seriously question anyone that gives the go on this. The first one sucked balls obviously, so how could that warrant a sequel? We should be getting sequels or continuations of Shadow of Colossus or Okami or Dead Rising or something...Not this pile of crap. It's like the sequel to "Two Worlds". Why even try for one when the original was so bad?

As a black man (25 years old), I'm ashamed to have this thug even repersent my ethicity. For a 2nd game to even exist is sad. For this man to even be held up like jesus is even worse.

I wonder what G-Unit's role will be in this "story". Will they provide 50 the epic fist pounds necessary to fight his way out of the Middle East?
