10 Celebrity Endorsed Video Games That Should Offend You
5. 50 Cent: Blood On The Sand
We should mention right from the start that 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand is not a particularly bad game. Its not winning any GOTY awards, but there certainly have been worse games. However, it does come with plenty of negatives. For starters, it exemplifies one of the worst things wrong with celebrity-endorsed video games making it all about the celeb. Everything in this game is supposed to remind you how awesome 50 Cent is and how youre supposed to be worshipping him. This doesnt necessarily make a game bad, but it does make it annoying as hell. If you are a 50 Cent fan, this does have a lot to offer. Besides wreaking havoc with Fiddy and his G-Unit cohorts, the game also features over 40 tracks including 18 made exclusively for the game. However, even the most diehard fan will eventually find the violence and swearing too corny. For everyone else, it takes about 2 minutes. It is just so completely over-the-top that something which is supposed to be intimidating and badass just becomes hilarious and, after a while, tedious and embarrassing.
