Of the reasons that I am not buying MW2, this stands near the summit.
Why can't he just stick to what he knows?

Did Activision charge him for his voice acting? It wouldn't surprise me. 'Hey, that'll be $2000', says 50 Cent, then Bobby Kotick comes in 'I think you misunderstand, sir, you owe ME $2000!'. 50 Cent, perplexed, says 'Why'. Kotick replies 'I will stop your next album being released under some bogus claim if you don't'.
You know it happened.

Maybe this is why the rrp has gone up. Good to know our money is going to a good cause.  |

It's neither a good thing or a bad thing, it's a whatever thing.
People who get up in arms about it are being overly dramatic IMO. |

Bad thing - that man is a prize berk.
Why spend cash on a tw@ like that when any unknown voice actor could do better for cheaper (and help keep those game prices down Activision!)
There's a reason that I can count on one hand the number of 'A'-list voiceovers in games that were passable, let alone good!

bad thing if he got paid more than a regular voice actor would have.
they are selling out on this one. half the levels have been ripped straight out of famous action hollywood film sets.
he played a decent, unsuspecting role in righteous kill if anyone seen it (al pacino & robert di nero)
but they are just trying to bling this sequel up. this wont reach classic status like the more humble, expertly executed orignal i dont think. snow mobiles and all this... cheap action frills.

This may be one area where Treyarch comes out on top.
Jack Bauer and Commissioner Gordon >>> 50 Cent. |

Cos they can't do that. These types of 'artists' have to do everything cos they're greedy f***ers. I remember when Samuel L Jackson had a beef about it years ago...
As for this game, well enough said |

Of course he did, but they're paying for the publicity rather than 50's questionable talent. We wouldn't be here talking about the game if John Smith from Barnet had done some voice acting!

If it's anything like his 'rapping' (Read mumbling) or his personality, it's a bad thing...Do you know he loves his girl like fat kid loves cake?!! |

That album can't be defined in my opinion. It highlighted the stupidity of our need to label things rather than sitting back and loving them for what they are. Mind-blowing album!  |

lets think about the voice acting for the black sarg in KZ2.........
"f**k this s**t"
"oh, hell no"
other black clich�'s
this probably won't be any worse

Is this part of the new gangsta mode where you have to cap each other for bling and bitches.
I'll never forget when i saw fiddy at reading. We bottled the bastard into oblivion.

Totally off topic but speaking of Reading, apparently Them Crooked Vultures might be appearing there. They're a 'supergroup' consisting of Josh Homme on vocals and guitar, Dave Grohl on drums and John Paul Jones on bass and other thingys. They played their first show last night and this review sounds like they're gonna be pretty good (though what else could you expect?)...

Yeah - but, there's a lot of misinformation forming about them already. It wouldn't be too surprising if they made an appearance - the only gigs supposedly planned so far are rumoured to be in the UK.
