[quote name='Roufuss']Amazing how many people just give this game an automatic pass simply because it's 50 Cent.
In the rare event that the gameplay mechanics are solid, the graphics awesome, and the online is good, you people will still pass on it just because you don't like the lead character?
Hey, I know another game that had a shit story and forgettable characters, but everyone seemed to have loved Gears of War for the gameplay (and before anyone says anything, I loved GoW).
Look, I'm not a 50 Cent fanboy or anything, but I'm just willing to give Swordfish Studios a chance with this game, which is more than most people seem willing to do. Hell, if you take out 50 Cent and replace it with a generic black guy, I'm sure people would be anticipating this game. Yea, the first 50 Cent game was horrible, but this is a brand new developer and a proven engine, so we might as well see what they can do.
I'm just surprised so many gamers are closed minded... if this game comes through in the gameplay dept, I'll definitely pick it up.[/quote]
This is exactly what I am thinking. I'm guessing some are anti-50 Cent, and others are just anti-rap in general. But if a game is fun, then a game is fun regardless of who is portrayed as the protagonist of the game.
