After completely failing with 50 Cent: Bulletproof, 50 decided to come out with another game. Oh god....
Anyway, I was in Gamestop and I had 30 bucks. I saw 50 Cent BoTS (Blood on the Sand) and I purchased it since nothing cool was out. I took the game home and started to play.
First off, the story is simple. 50 performed a concert in the Middle East and he got paid with a diamond incrusted skull. Then he got ambushed and it got stolen by this girl. 50 proceeds to pursue the skull cause he wants his pay, and no one takes his pay.
Okay so I thought the plot was funny but too simple. Anyway this is what I have to say about the game:
Pros:
-The counter kills are badass. I love quicktime events and killing any enemy with them is sweet.
-I like how you can play as G Unit.
-The game has enough weapons to keep you shooting
-I love how the game is full of 50 Cent music
-The coop works very nicely
-The cutscenes are good enough to get by
-Good Gears of War type cover system
-They have things to look for like targets and posters, motivating you to replay levels
Cons:
-The facial animations suck. When 50 talks his mouth doesn't even move. He just has a constant o_o face. Stupid.
-Why is there no local coop? Only xbox live/psn coop is available which really annoys me.
-The graphics could have been better, especially on 50 himself. He looks great in cutscenes but horrible in gameplay.
-The environments and objectives can get repetitive. There is no strategy, just kill everyone.
-There are a few boss fights......they are all helicopters. Lame.
-No competitive multiplayer. I expected some since it has the Gears-like cover system.
So in all I give it a 8/10 because the shooting, cover system, and music make up for the cons. The counter kills and gunfights will take your mind off the repetitive gameplay on the first playthrough but you will probably only want to play the game with a friend. I recommend the game for some laughs and fun gameplay, not for the more serious gamers.
Now go unleash your inner gangsta
