looks good....but people will hate this game no matter what coz of 50 cent

This game looks fucking intense. That trailer was the mutts nuts. Seriously.

Stop attacking the game just because 50 is tied into it. That's like hating Viva Pinata just because it has pinatas in. Or not playing Half Life 2 because you don't like scientists.

Seems like the devs actually put some work into this game.

seriously WTF

thugs with terrorist, what is gaming nowadays

The day they announce Batman in a Mortal Kombat game, I can finally retire from videogaming.

Wait...they did.

Scientists generally do good. Pinatas (in real life) are inanimate objects. 50 Cent is criminal scum. You see the difference there? Every person who buys this game is helping to fund crime.

Ok you're still not really getting my point.

It's not about who the character is, as the story is already so ridiculous that you know you're not meant to take it seriously.

It just looks like a bit of fun.

Also, I'm not even sure if 50 cent has done any crimes. He seems like the sort of guy to just say he's done lots of stuff and then stroll to the bank as all his followers relentlessly buy trainers with his name.

Your not getting there point, he gets royalties that he does not deserve.

He's been convicted multiple times for drug dealing and possessing weapons. Also when talking about getting shot (9 times, [sarcasm]ooh he's my hero now![/sarcasm]) he said that it happened so fast that he didn't have time to shoot back, which means he was carrying a gun and prepared to use it. (OK, that 1 time would have been justified if he had used it but he shouldn't have been carrying a gun anyway and I don't think it's a stretch to say that it's likely he's shot and possibly even killed people before.) He's scum and shouldn't be receiving a penny (let alone 50 Cent, lol!) from anybody other than the American taxpayer paying for his food and lodgings... because he should still be in jail!

Crime is something people do when they need money (most of the time).

In order to prevent 50 cent from needing money and therefore resorting to crime, I suggest you buy this game.

Argue against that. I dare you. =)

So it's racist to point out a criminal if that criminal is black? I think you're the one who's racist! And he WAS in jail, he was convicted multiple times! I don't call gun wielding drug dealers business men, I call them MURDERING SCUM WHO SHOULD BE WIPED OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH!!! It's a shame he was only shot 9 times, he should have been shot at least once more, right between his eyes.

I'll take that dare. There are plenty of LEGAL ways to make money. Pretty simple, don't you think? If "50 Cent" likes videogames so much then why didn't he apply for a job in the videogames industry instead of becoming a criminal? And why waste what money he did have on drugs and guns? The reason crime rates are so high are because of people like him and people like you idolising them.

There are plenty of unsolved murders in America, just because some murderers aren't caught doesn't mean they're innocent. Plus if he dealt drugs and ANYBODY died as a result of taking a drug that he sold then he's a murderer. In fact I'd say that if anybody was ON drugs that he sold and they killed someone else then he's an accessory to murder as far as I'm concerned. And if someone's a criminal (especially a criminal convicted of serious crimes) then they're always a criminal, completing a prison sentence doesn't make their crimes magically disappear. If "50 Cent" shot and killed the person who meant the most in the world to you, or if he sold them drugs and they died using them whould you just say "Hey, it's OK, it's 50 Cent! So he killed my best friend? Whoopteedo..." then continue buying everything he sells? There could be dead children who were victims of stray bullets from drive-bys he was involved in. All the drug dealing gangsters should be arrested and given LIFE imprisonments or executed in states that allow it. Bruce Willis is probably one of the saner actors around since he said all the cocaine fields in Columbia should be bombed and that would wipe out a large section of the drug trade. The "war on drugs" could be won virtually overnight if anybody in charge of their country actually gave a damn about society. All it would take is random drug testing at workplaces, schools (unfortunately) and public gatherings and anybody found with illegal drugs in their system get a large fine and 10 years probation for their first offence and 10 years in jail for their 2nd if they do it again. (If they're dumb enough to do it a 3rd time then they get another 10 years in jail, in fact hell, make it 20 if they're really that dumb.) Drug dealers like I said should get a life sentence here in the UK and in the USA get the death penalty if they're in a state that has it. If there were laws like that then I doubt there'd be a drug problem for much longer and crime would reduce dramatically. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR TAKING OR DEALING DRUGS, PERIOD! Of course the government and the police won't do that, instead (here in the UK at least) they'll spend all the taxpayer's money on putting CCTVs on up every corner corner claiming that it's to fight crime rather than spy on the population. Put speed cameras every 1/4 mile (while conveniently letting tree branches grow over speed limit signs or put a load of other, often confusing, signs up in the same place to distract motorists) claiming it's for safety reasons rather than for making money (and spying on the population) despite the fact that the number of road accidents and deaths just keep getting higher and higher. As well as arresting, assaulting and even killing completely innocent people and totally getting away with it instead of catching the real criminals. (As the police and government are so corrupt they're either criminals themselves, in the pay of criminals or at least are friends with criminals and help them out, whether that means doing their dirty work for them or at least covering things up for them... which would make them criminals. So basically they're virtually all criminals which is why degenerates like "50 Cent", Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse are so prevalent in the media today and potrayed as some kind of heroes.) I really hope the developers read this and maybe their moral compass might turn a degree or 2 because personally, if I was working for Sierra, I'd refuse to work on this game on moral grounds and if they threatened to fire me I'd just quit!

ALL ILLEGAL DRUG USERS ARE CRIMINALS!!! WHY CAN'T YOU GET THAT THROUGH YOU THICK SKULL??? Are "recreational" serial killers OK by you too? "50 Cent" should have never left jail so don't give me any of that "he did his time" crap. He kept re-offending and getting sent back to jail so he obviously wasn't rehabilitated and the most likely reason he isn't in jail right now is because he's become famous. (Although it wouldn't surprise me if he gets arrested again any day, although even if he does they'll go easy on him because not only is he a celebrity but I'm sure he's got plenty of people to pay off police, prosecutors and judges or threaten them and their families depending on whether they're corrupt or not.) Not only should scum like him not be walking the streets but they sure as hell shouldn't be millionaires and preaching their filth all over TV and radio, let alone videogames! If he's given his freedom then every single penny he earns, minus just enough for food and rent, should go towards the victims of crime. Oh, and by the way, the victims of drugs aren't the users like all the politically correct retards want everybody to believe, they're the rest of society who DON'T sell or use drugs. And who cares if the prisons are overcrowded? That just proves my point that there are too many criminals around and not enough is being done to prevent crime altogether. (Like ridding the world of drugs and not letting people like "50 Cent" corrupt society by promoting them and their crimes in the media.) As for the Jack Thompson crap, since when did I say that videogames were bad?? I said making a videogame about a criminal where he's the hero and that criminal getting paid for it is bad. How would you feel if there was a game where your character was Hitler and neo Nazi's got royalties from the game? Or how about Super Bin Laden Brothers or Suicide Bomberman with all profits going to Al Qaeda? If you don't agree with that happening then you're a hypocrite but if you do agree with that then you're total scum. So what are you, hypocrite or scum? (Or, more likely, both?)

Cool, I win! :D But I'll still point out a few things (and I'll use paragrphs this time just for you, I'll admit I'm never got the hang of paragraphs at school but these should be easy):

1. Just because someone completes their parole doesn't mean they suddenly become a good person or, like I said before, their crime(s) and consequences of their crime(s) are erased.

2. Criminals serve however long the prison sentence is they are given (or in too many cases, no time at all) by the judge (or in the occasional case the government, no I'm not talking about just terrorists I'm referring to cases like the Jamie Bulger case here in the UK you may or may not of heard about and I'm on the fence about governments being involved in sentencing although I agreed with Jamie Bulger's killers getting their sentences extended) and they, the defence and the prosecution use the law to come up with the final sentence. However law and justice are not the same thing and quite often justice is not done, whether it's a guilty person geting off scott free (or only getting a fraction of the punishment they deserve) or an innocent person being punished.

3. If I was in charge I doubt half the world would be in prison or dead. For a start I wouldn't be in charge of the world as I've never in my life said that 1 person should be in charge of the whole world, let alone in my posts. If I pretend you said country instead of world for a second then I still doubt that half of the country would be in prison or dead. For a start I wouldn't re-introduce the death penalty unless the rest of the public wanted it. (I'd probably give the country a referendum.) There would probably be more people in jail to begin with (although there would most likely be some people set free too) but once my policies really kicked in their would be less crime so therefore less people in jail.

3. It isn't the gameplay I object to in this game it's 50 Cent's involvement. I have no problem with "violence" in videogames because all it is at the end of the day is a game game of skill were you try to get your pixels to beat opposing pixels. Of course people like Jack Thompson will say that it's glorifying real life violence as the graphics in certain games clearly display guns and punching and kicking etc however I'd disagree with that as long as the hero character isn't really doing anything wrong and is just defending themselves or in the case of something like Halo or Call Of Duty is part of a group who have to defeat the bad guys. However, if there are games where your character is supposed to do bad things like say kill innocent people or perform other illegal acts that aren't being done for a good reason (like maybe a game that includes breaking into somewhere to collect evidence againt the bad guys) then I'd be against those games. So, yes, I an against the Grand Theft Auto games and think it's a shame that such groundbreaking technology and gameplay is first being used in such a game. In fact the technological and gameplay experience sounds so good that I would like to try it from that perspective so will probably play it when my brother can get it (it's completely sold out everywhere, at least on the Xbox360, if you haven't noticed, lol!) even if I don't buy it myself. The difference between the Grand Theft Auto games and 50 Cent 2 is that it's not promoting a real life criminal and hopefully crime isn't funded by it. (I don't know if any of the developer's employees have a criminal record, let alone have committed crimes as bad as 50 Cent, but even if any do I'm sure nobody buying the game knows about them so at least they're not knowingly giving money to criminals or funding crime.) By the way, 1 exception to what I said about doing good or bad things in the game is games that gives you the choice between good and evil, then it's it's purely the player who decides the morality of the game. In fact I was actually torn over The Force Unleashed as I love Star Wars but don't want to have to play the bad guy. However Lucasarts have hinted at a few things that have made me feel a bit better about the game. (I won't say what I think they were hinting at but it's pretty obvious if you've heard/read what they've said, lol!)

4. I'm glad you're not planning on buying this game, but it's unfortunate your choice is based on the wrong reasons. In fact why aren't you planning on buying the game? Apart from 50 Cent's involvement the game looks pretty good from the videos I've seen and I don't think games should be judged (ethical reasons aside) until either you can play them or at least until they're almost finished unless they look so awful when first shown that you don't think they could possibly be salvaged. Then again maybe I shouldn't have said that on this game's comments as it might encourage more people to buy it, DOH!

Haha. Oh deary dear.

Look out everyone, only one opinion is allowed on this website!

Seriously though, your final point is practically what I've been trying to say this whole time. Only you've been too busy picturing me as a 50 Cent-loving (and therefore crime-committing) member of society. I've got some bad news for you, I'm not actually a fan of 50 cent. I'm a fan of video games.

This video game looks pretty good. Case closed.

Take your wholly unsupported claims elsewhere, along with your warped sense of justice. Let's talk about games.

My final point was about gameplay however I don't think this game should have ever been made and everybody who buys a copy is funding crime. I understand that you can't judge a game's gameplay by character in it even if you don't like them however this goes way beyond just not liking someone as the guy is a convicted criminal who should still be locked up! And they're not wildly unsupported claims, they're (well known) facts!:

The guy is scum and anybody who defends him is scum, period. By the way, people who support 50 Cent and his videogames are just giving ammunition to people like Jack Thompson because he can say "Oh look at these awful videogames, not only do they have ficticious criminal main characters in games like Grand Theft Auto but now they have real-life criminal main characters like 50 Cent and they fund crime!" And maybe he'll manage to get more restrictions placed on perfectly innocent videogames because of it. Do you want that??? Despite what you might think I don't want lots of censorship in games, I just don't want blatent evil, immorality and criminality condoned or promoted in games or funded by them. You can have a villain and enemies who are the most evil and sadistic characters ever created and there can be the most violent and gruesome scenes ever seen in a videogame or even movie, just so long as you play the good guy who gets to blow the scum away or beat the crap out of them! And I don't see how wanting to get rid of crime and having the guilty punished and the innocent left alone is a warped sense of justice, what on earth is your idea of justice? Letting all criminals roam the streets doing whatever they want to whoever they want without any fear of punishment and silencing all innocent people who are opposed to it??? I'm so sorry that I have morals and stick to them no matter what but you'll just have to deal with it as I'm not going to change.
