50 Cent: Blood on the Sand

50 Cent: Blood on the Sand

The game revolves around the rapper 50 Cent. The player's character can be one of the three other members of the G-Unit crew: Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks or DJ Whoo Kid, who each specialize in different fighting techniques. The other player is controlled either through the game or through online cooperation. The game is set in an urban war zone in an unspecified country in the Middle East, where 50 Cent and G-Unit have been hired for a rap concert. After the concert, the organizer Anwar is unable to pay them the promised 10 million US dollars in cash, but relents after being threatened. Instead of the promised money, however, he gives them a human skull encrusted with diamonds and pearls (which bears a striking resemblance to a diamond-encrusted skull cast in platinum by the artist Damien Hirst) as collateral. This is promptly stolen by a paramilitary group led by the terrorist Kamal. 50 Cent (with the help of selected G-Unit partners) decides to get it back at all costs, and they soon find out that there is a much bigger enemy than Kamal. In the video game, he kills Kamal, Anwar, his enemies and gets his skull back.
