From THQ’s description of 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand.
After performing for a sold-out crowd in a fictional war torn middle-eastern country, 50 Cent discovers that his payment has been stolen by the local crime baron – a former CIA operative and death-dealing organ harvester.
So he’s a crime baron, a former spook and an organ thief. But 50 Cent gets involved only when his fee is stolen. Do rappers regularly perform to sold out crowds in war torn countries? Is gang themed rap popular in the Middle East?
If this game is only half as ridiculous as the premise, it could be 2009’s guilty pleasure.

I think this game would be great as a turn-based isometric Fallout clone.

You obviously haven’t played the original fiddy cent game. Ugh.

From people who’ve played it, I’m hearing agreeable Guilty Pleasure noises actually. The premise is totally mental.
