Following the release of several new screenshots, publisher Sierra Entertainment has released a spectacularly violent new 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand trailer, showcasing ol' Fitty's antics in the Middle East.

When asked why 50 Cent would be fighting other thugs in the Middle East, Shacknews staffer Maarten Goldstein replied, "Why not?"

I can only imagine what the pitch meetings for this game must have been like. What's worse? That 50 Cent probably walked into some office and said "yo, I want my own game where I go kick ass in the middle east and shit" or that some publisher decided to spend millions making it happen?

If this was anyone but 50 Cent, e.g. Chuck Norris, would the game then be more appealing?

Is it just coincidence that the "evil villain" in this game is the whitest dude you've ever seen before, wearing a huge white robe and glowing like some sort of ghost? Maybe the original title of this game was "50 Cent: Killin' Whitey and Sticking it to the Man"........

Yeah this trailer is definitely going to be better than the game itself, and what is with the graphics? Every single -even 50's muscles - is so God damn SHINY, and it all looks so cartoony.

Whatever, this game looks like it would be fun ONLY if it was this over the top and crazy.

A prime example of how one man's off the charts ego and checkbook has proven that today's game publishers have absolutely no limits to the kind of crap they are willing to shovel on us.

And, when will the development community stop sucking on the tit of big business and hollywood and start telling these people what they need to hear?
