Is 50 Cent 2 going to be worth 2 cents?
Category: Industry, Posted: 03/24/2008 at 07:21PM CDT by Frank Ling, Senior Editor
When the game 50 Cent: Bulletproof was released several years ago, the game received a universal "yawn" from gaming sites and reader reviews.
The best that could be said about the scores was that the game reached the level of the rapper's namesake and scored an un-impressive score of 50 out of 100. But apparently the game scored enough sales to merit a sequel--50 Cent 2.
The news was spilled from the latest upcoming issue of EGM magazine, which shows the second installment of the game on the front cover.
At the time of the original release of 50 Cent: Bulletproof, the rapper, aka Curtis Jackson, decided to do some promotion of his own by advising parents to let their children play the ultraviolet game in order to understand what the real world was about.
Whether this tactic helped to improve game sales is not known but you can be certain that 50 Cent will be saying some more outrageous things when his sequel comes out.

Hasn't he been shot yet? -_-
Yes, nine times apparantly, although he doesn't like to mention it.
No.
I'd probably pay 2 cents for a Frisbee.
How much would you pay me for my 2 cents?
$19.95
(Offer void in the United States. Subject to 2 year contract consisting of extraction of soul and 5 hour a day perpetual playtime of Midway's hour of victory. Buyer reserves the right of use of "pimp hand" at any and all times during said contract. Send your 2 cents in a self addressed envelope with $19.93 shipping and handling.)
Yes. The real world is in fact, a GTA ripoff.
50 Cent is a corporate whore. Simple as that.
RAP = retards attempting poetry
He's a shithouse. Proper hope he dies. It'd be awesome!
Here, I'll pitch your horrible game for you, fifty cent.
When you are done playing this horrible excuse for entertainment, you can wear it around your neck. It is shiny, so you can consider yourself "all iced out." Yeah, it is not real jewelry, but it is no more fake than the people who listen to that god awful noise and consider themselves gangster. After talking all that trash on the street, throwing your gang signs, ext., you may run into someone on the street (an ex military man comes to mind) who has had just about enough of your empty threats. You may then use the shiny side of the disk to direct sun in the eyes of the pissed off soldier as you run for your life. Caution. Not only does putting 22 or 24 inch rims on a vehicle not designed for them decrease performance, increase fuel consumption, limit turn radius, and reduce the chance of the vehicle staying on the road, but the trained soldier will most likely recognize this and use it to his advantage.
no offense ninja, but those jokes are old.
I agree with p-thunder though, he's a shithouse.
