50 Cent Game Still Bustin' Caps

50 Cent Game Still Bustin' Caps

Buck up, Fiddy fans: It looks like 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand [http://www.50bloodonthesand.com/us/] may see the light of day after all.

A new database entry at the Australian Activision Blizzard [http://www.classification.gov.au/special.html?n=46&p=156&sMediaGames=1&sDateFromM=1&sDateFromY=1970&sDateToM=3&sDateToY=2010&record=230434] would not comment on the ultimate fate of Blood on the Sand beyond saying, "The company is reviewing its options regarding titles that it will not be publishing."

The follow-up to story-focused [http://50centbulletproof.com/] than Bulletproof, and that Fiddy himself is "heavily involved" in the game's design.

The Australian classification board awarded the game an MA15+ rating, the highest available in the country, for "strong violence and coarse language, sexual and drug references," while the game has not yet been rated by the Xbox 360 [http://www.esrb.org].

Can someone tell me why this game is being released?

Can someone tell me why this game is being released?

Especially since Brutal Legend is still in limbo...

 

[SenseOfTumour]

Because there's a chemical that leaks out of baseball caps that makes people think it will be a good game, that everyone on the bus wants to hear their range of ringtones, and *stops* before this becomes a full on rant.

I'd like to know also, this sounds like it's made from fail, for fail.

It was meant to be a rhetorical question.

YAYYYY! FIDDY! HUR HUR HUR!

Oh dear lord, the first of these games was horrible, and this is just stupid. It's not even like the premise has any sort of sense. It sounds like a bad Scooby-Doo movie. The fact that Fifty Cent is involved heavily in the story writing is probably worse for it than otherwise.

 

[AceDiamond]

I fully intend to mock this game heartlessly and perhaps demand my rental money back, that should make for some chuckles.

He is? No wonder the story is so terrible.

When will people start to realize that, just because they have an idea for a story, that doesn't mean that they are a writer with any sort of talent? Same goes for the people who think that, just because they want to act, that doesn't mean they are good at it. And while we are at it, just because people think they can sing, that doesn't mean they can.

Wow...Half-a-Dollar is all three of those.

We've been talking about this game for a few days in Gaming Discussion. Apparently, 50 puts on a blockbuster concert in a fictional middleastern country, but the organizer doesn't have his money.... So he pays him in a giant diamond crusted skull instead (yes).

Apparently certain individuals want this skull very bad, and they steal it from him.

So basically, the game is about 50 Cent stealing a nations antiquities and...fighting trained soldiers. Or something.

*hurl*

This sounds like the biggest vanity project since Bono helped Africa to sell U2 cds.

I know, ain't it great? The average Sci-Fi Channel original movie has a more complex and interesting plot.

You obviously never watched Basilisk: The Serpent King

How much is THQ expecting us to pay for a fifty cent game?

 

[Jobz]

I think we should boycott this game. Seriously, picket signs and the like. Stand outside video game stores on release day and kick the shit out of anyone who attempts to pay money for it.

Or ignoring it... which is actually a lot easier. I mean, picketing and the like would result in advertising, while ignoring the game would mean it just goes away.

YEah, I get it was a rhetorical question, but hey, its a forum, I'm still going to reply, or its a dead thread

As for baseball caps, I think it's different in the USA, but in the UK...

Baseball caps are like pubic hair, you can remove it, but there's a still a **** underneath.

EDIT: Damn, man, Australia REALLY hates gamers, they've banned Fallout 3, but this gets thru? Thanks, oh illustrious leaders!
