GoGamingGiant's Matt Joseph reviews the latest 50 Cent title, Blood on the Sand.
Excerpt: "50 Cent: Blood on the Sand is a fast paced shooter that offers a quick fix for those who are looking for a shooter that does things a little different. It's not Gears, it's not Halo and it's not Call of Duty. It's something different, I can't quite put my finger on it, but for what it's worth, I really enjoyed playing it. I am a 50 Cent fan in general but even if this game did not feature 50 Cent I really enjoyed other elements in it like the scoring system and the co-op. The replay value is low so I'm going to recommend it as a rental. Maybe if they had online, or the harder difficulties weren't such a joke I would give it a "buy" but there is just not enough content to make it anything more than a rental. So give it a chance, pick it up one weekend, it's a fun little game and I hope they make more games with the 50 Cent brand."
Most licensed games tend to be below average, but every now and then, developers produce a game based on an existing license that is actually good.
EA back in the early PS2/Xbox/GC-era actually put out some pretty good licensed games, notably 007 Nightfire , 007 Everything or Nothing and some of their Lord of The Rings games.
I enjoyed "The Great Escape" game on the PS2. Also "The Thing" on PS2 wasnt to bad. Unfortunately it was to hard at the time when I was younger.
6th gen in general was a really good gen for licensed games, so many surprising gems from that time
Peter Jackson's King Kong.
Avatar: The game
X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
And love it or hate it, Enter The Matrix really scratched the itch for Matrix games as well.
COGconnected: Some sequels come as a result of the artists behind it truly believing an IP deserves a second chance, could be improved with just a few small tweaks, or is indeed good enough to warrant a sequel. These ones do not.
Loads of people asked for a sequel to Knack, including myself.
The first game was good fun, clearly rushed for launch, but a good launch title for PS4.
The great dunk spoke, and knack 2 was goty before it even dropped. Spaghetti. Meatballs. Puerto Rico.
Knack 2 and Kane and Lynch 2 were so good
Cool article though aha mostly all true.
Still waiting for Kanye and Lynch 3 to solve that insane cliffhanger ending
I will always want more Naughty Bear. Those games are like bad SyFy movies, just so awful but so fun.
Knack 1-2 was Fantastic...,.... hope Knack 3 being developed.
Can't wait for Ratchet and clank 2
Ps4
Here are the seven Xbox 360 games that still need to be backwards compatible with the Xbox One, including one last Call of Duty title and a hip hop artist that needs to find his skull.
GRAW2 and Ninja Gaiden 2 and I’ll be set. I’m a little bitter though you can’t buy Splinter Cell Blacklist digitally, I certainly would have bought a new copy to play, I don’t have my disc anymore and I’ll never own another game on disc. Same thing happened with Red River, not sure why it happens but it is disappointing.
Would love Dishonored 1 and the Batman Arkham games on BC, the remastered versions of those games is hot garbage.
Do people actually play 360 games on the xb1 or do they kinda toy around for a while to check out the improvements? Im curious because i cant stand last gen games
I bought the Xbox one X because of the backwards compatibility. Last gen games look amazing, Gears, Red dead look incredible in 4K. Still some of the best games were on last gen.
Infinite Undiscovery is the only one I'm waiting on, I replayed Blue Dragon when it hit BC.
And Why Kidz Hates 50 ?? i dont get it nigga
