We're not positive (yet), but the more material we see from 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand, the more sure we are that it's going to be the best game ever made. Barring that, it's almost sure to be the best one featuring the theft -- and subsequent retrieval -- of a diamond-encrusted skull by a hardcore rapper (except, of course, for Kid Chameleon).
Things we love: When Fiddy takes a shotgun blast to the chest without flinching; when Fiddy casts his assault rifle aside to kick a guy in the junk and when Fiddy is assaulted by not just a white guy, but (for the benefit of those of you who are not so much with the symbolism) the whitest guy on the face of the Earth. We're betting that guy's name is White E. Theman, but that's just a guess.
Because its so ridiculously over the top and actually well edited that it emits 100% pure awesome in every frame in its attempt to win you over ... or die tryin'.
So how does the media react to this game? Do all the politicans who hate the violent videogames AND rap music have to fight or defend a game where the main character is (apparently) ridding the world of terrorists?
I think its something like: 50 cent goes to the middle east for a benefit tour, but evil terrorists steal his blingin diamond encrusted belt buckle so he kills an entire country.
The plot is that Mr. Cent goes to do a concert for the troops in an unnamed country and when he is done they don't have any money to pay him so instead they give him a diamond encrusted skull. The skull gets stolen and in the game Mr. Cent must go out and kill people to get his skull back.
You know when you put your tongue between your lips and blow (I think it's called a raspberry) and make that noise like a fart? Well, how would you type it?
wait, how do terries get so nice of guns? or did one just carry it around in case fiddy wanted to grab it from him? Also, poor heli guy. he just flew. and now hes dead.
That was nuts! Leaping and prowess of a leopard... a rapping, vengeful leopard with working knowledge of every modern assault weapon, a leopard that GETS SOME ASS and doesn't hesitate to tell you all about it in a hot 16 bars!
Seriously, though, while this game looks ridiculous and the concept is clichéd, this looks like any commercial we saw for Army of Two, so I can't really act like this is some sort of sign of the apocolypse or anything. The difference is, I suppose, that when the 'Ironman' game comes out, the guy is called 'Tony Starks' and not 'Robert Downey Jr.'
...I know I've joked about it before, but is he getting his money back from Damien Hirst at the end? What's with the skull?
