New 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand info

Fresh details have cropped up in regards to the forthcoming action sequel, 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand.

Speaking to MTV News, Vivendi Games Producer Aaron Blean implied that the hip-hop star’s latest videogame outing would ultimately prove to be a far more competent affair than its predecessor, 50 Cent: Bulletproof.

"Once we get the game out there... I think people will realise right away where our focus for the sequel is,” said Blean. "We've emphasised the gameplay quality [more] than anything this time around. We can't wait to show the game around."

According to reports, the game will be powered utilizing Epic’s Unreal Engine 3 and will include cooperative-based gameplay. Players will be able to bring along a member of G Unit – human or AI controlled – in an effort to aid 50 Cent as he wages war against legions of International gangsters.

Each character will sport their own unique set of combat abilities, with Tony Yayo, Whoo Kid and Lloyd Banks all confirmed to appear in the sequel.

Blean stated that the game takes much of its influence from the movies Three Kings and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, noting that 50 Cent himself has played a significant role in its creation.

Fans of the hip-hop star can also look forward to the inclusion of exclusive tracks from the man himself, with Blean adding, "50 is going to create exclusive tracks for the game that you can only listen to in the game.”

50 Cent: Blood on the Sand is currently in development for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, with a tentative release date of fall 2008.

    Well, here's ANOTHER shooter. I think that in 2009, I probably will go on strike and I wont buy 1 single shooter because 2008 has been full of shooters and I already plan on buying 3 or 4 shooters (Haze, Resistance 2, Far Cry 2, Killzone 2) just this year. All of these shooters is just getting ridiculous.

     

    I'm sure that people that aren't fans of 50 cent might pick up this game just for the fact that it might be a shooter.

    Think we can all rest assured that this will be utter CR@p. Any game based on a Movie or famous character is going to be pretty lame

    Instead of investing time in creating this piece of s**t game, they should invest that time in creating um..I don't know maybe aaaa GOOD GAME. This only for rap fans, in other words, who the f**k cares!!!!

    Here we go again. I really hate this guy. He'll never, ever get 1 red cent from me. Another B.S. game from the worst rapper on the planet. His latest cd did horribly bad and this game will follow suit. He needs to leave the game while he can still walk out.

    @ Aclay Im with you. Too many shooters sometimes I think the devs are insulting us.Its like, with all the great shooters out there why even bother coming out with crap?If this game comes out in the fall,I would have to get every PS3 exclusive that is coming out then maybe this.Note to devs; fall will not be a good time to push out wakk shooters!Shouldve gave 50 a cameo in GTA4.

    oh yeah, they should give him a cameo in GTA4, more like a mission for the player to kill him. I mean, if we can't do it in real life why not in a game? Just to proof that he's not "bulletproof", he's more like talent-proof since no amont of talent can't get near him no matter what he does.

    Lol, I love these comments.  I'm not sure who would still be interested in this game, but the last one apparently did pretty well.

    Dope Lauryn Hill pic iToke. Yeah, 50 doesn't care about music or anything else. He will pimp himself to anything that gets him paid. Hip-Hop... I used to love H.E.R.

    One thing i always say is a move based on a actor is worste then a crap movie made for kids. Story writer should be making a universe of his own and then place someone who fits for it. I really am anti celeb w/e, everything for crappy trademarks to wannabe movies that are made to sell and sell only. When i know the game will be based on 50 cent and it really is nothing more then gangsters beating up eachother then there is no reason to check it out but i just had to see who was making it :D
