Words cannot describe how badly I want to make fun of this game. It's the ultimate in posturing badassery, placing you in the role of rapper 50 Cent as he goes to the Middle East to perform and gets paid not with the almighty dollar, but a skull encrusted in diamonds. No, I'm not joking. It doesn't get much pimper than that, ladies and gents.
But hold your jokes, just for a second, and watch the video. As our own Nick Chester
has commented, the first game wasn't half bad, and despite the thick-as-molasses attitude, this one looks pretty passable too. Add in the fact that you can pop a cap in people as a matter of course, and you might want to put down your pride and give it a spin. Maybe.

Looks pretty fun to me...
That's all I can say. I'm sure it will be passable at best.
Every time I see this game, I just feel sad since it just reminds me that the game they were developing with that engine is gone, because marketing motherfuckers came in and said "Stupid people bought 50 Cent game, we'll use this to push a sequel, because that's what sells, and fuck serious game development, money rules, cancel your plans and fork over the engine and assets".
it would be funny if you died in 10 shots!
...because [/i]everybody[/i]has been anxiously awaiting 50 cent's new single.
I guess the game itself looks ok. The character animations look pretty awkward though.
News to me.
Fiddy single-handedly fighting the war on terror? Sounds ridiculous enough to be awesome to me
"How you like me now?"
Less and less every day, Fiddy Cent. Especially with the damn over-dramatic narration to that video. It's a game about punching, shooting, and blowing up people, not a review of the tormented soul of a down-on-his luck gangster from the streets who has to find the courage and the way to take on the world.
"This summer... 50 Cent is... *pump pump, pump pump* GET DOWN! *explosions* ...the Little Tortilla Boy!
"Gears of Wanksta"
Hahaha! Perfect.
Not just a lil, not just alot... but
EVERYTHING.IS.ON.THE.LINE
Oh snap.
