50 Cent Blood on the Sand is a Must Buy!Feb 27, 2009
By etoybizcom I bought 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand the day it was released. And I must say that it was a solid purchase.
From the moment I opened the package and slipped the disc into my Xbox 360, I was drawn into the action. Simply put, I just could not stop playing, not even for dinner.
The game does have a built in map, via an on screen pointer system that is very efficient and trustworthy. In other words, I found it very hard to get lost in this game.
The only thing I did not like about this game is the almost excessive use of language. I would have preferred if THQ had included a feature where I could censor the langauage, but since this was not an option, I was forced to play the game with my head phones on whenever my 7-year old was around.
But with great graphics, sound effects, and new hard hitting tracks from 50 Cent and his G Unit, as well as straight on solid controls, this game has been much improved over it's "Bulletproof" predecessor.
All-in-all, this game was a MUST buy, and a solid addition to my Xbox 360 collection.

The Club presents:The Adventures of 50 CentMar 16, 2009

If you've played the Club before then you will see the similarity in this game. It's like the Club with a sequel featuring 50 Cent in an actual adventure/story mode. The gameplay and some of the task/missions are just like the Club. From similar killing combos to finding the hidden bullseye targets during the levels. The Graphics are actually pretty sweet if you play it in HD. There's tons of cussing during gameplay and during cinemas. Wouldn't be 50 if it wasn't. Not a serious storyline but a decent one if it were a low budget "B" movie. I don't know if 50 had any part to do with the story or not, but if he did it seems like to me maybe he picked up some of the idea from the movie Home of The Brave that he starred in. But anyway the controls are pretty good. You may notice a few Gears of War moves used in the game (recovering your partner, vehicle stage) Army of Two weapon upgrade. (What, No pimped out weapons?) and a few up close battles from the bourne conspiracy game. The up close fights were not as advanced as the bourne conspiracy but similar. Overall it's a good action game to pick up for anyone who has mastered Gears of War or The Club and has a itchy finger to pull a trigger. This would be the game to play until a better 3rd person shooter comes out. Even better if you can find it on sale cheaper than $50. A good 3rd person action shooter worth looking into.

Good Game...Jun 06, 2009

i Liked Bulletproof for xbox...this game is kind of Exactly the same. the shooting is Arcade (think The Club/Gears of War) but its just FUN to shoot through the levels with a partner Online in CO-OP mode...which does add to the games Replay and Overall Value. the music fits the action perfectly. if your a Fan of 50 cents music, youll love it. i think the MUSIC tied into the experience of the game is what makes it slightly better than Some arcade shooting games out there. one thing i DIDNT like about the game is the hand to hand fighting sequences...which are Very Slow...this is VERY noticeable when playing CO-OP and watching your partner engage in the Slowest fist fight youv ever seen take place in your life. but like i said, thats the Only issue i found with it. overall, this is a Fun, Casual shooting game you can just pick up and play. if your into Rap Music and Arcade Shooting Games, you should definitely Try this game out. IMO, its up there with Gears of War, Call Of Duty and the like...and slightly more Fun than those titles as well.

Gears of War / Army of Two StyleOct 21, 2010
By Langor

I bought this game because I was deployed and needed something new and the selection was slim. I found it for $9.97 American. Which is not bad. I bought this thinking it was not going to be that great. But I was wrong. It is definetly fun.
If you like the following two factors you will like this game.
1.)If you liked Gears of War and or Army of two you will like the gameplay.
2.)If you like 50 cent music or the hip-hop scene you will enjoy the storyline.
Its a game definetly worth finishing. I am not sure on the re-play value though.

Great gameAug 15, 2010
By Michael Long

This game is a lot of fun. It's senseless in the most part, but that's part of its fun and charm. I'm not even a huge 50 Cent fan, but even so, the soundtrack for the game is great. The inclusion of a taunt button was just fantastic and helps make the game even better. Playing online with friends so far has been a great time. Possibly the only complaint is that the game can be pretty short, especially when playing with a friend. I haven't tried out hard-mode, yet, but I'm hoping that it can add some more time to the game while playing online.
The price should have dropped enough to be within anyone's price range, and the game is just a bunch of fun. Well worth the price now.
