Someone find this man his goddamn skull.
"yo 50 jump over that big ass ramp" is the most influential line in gaming history
Tony Yayo has the dopest voice too!
Next to Lego Yoda’s “pain noise”
That's that "anything's possible" line 😂
Yo 50 I told you to get the on the god damn ramp. Big smoke!
FOLLOW THE DAMN TRAIN 50!!!
"A ludicrous third person shooter..."
I think you mean 50 cent third person shooter silly.
Underrated comment

Hahaha I thought the exact same thing.
I see what he did there!
@Dave Lister *Hip Hop head :DD
In “Scarface: The World Is Yours” you gain “Balls” for taunting enemies.
now that game is amazing!
Better game also.
He should review that next
Better than increasing your "Rep" to get more "Bank". The more Heat from the cops equals more Rep which equals more Bank.
then you can trigger rage mode and DESTROY EVERYTHING in your way
More games should be about you getting back your skull.
Shadows of the Damned, your main partner is a floating horny skull that turns into a Big Boner
technically Fallout new vegas is a game about getting revenge for your skull up until halfway
so... where is my skull?

There should’ve been a Candy Shop level
there WAS a candy shop in the game tho!
The man turned to his kid for advice on his game when developing it. I always thought that was so wholesome.
Now he bully’s his own kid and is a shitty father
@@ottomanwarrior9630 well the kid hates him, blame the mother for turning hom against his son
@@musicismysaviour22yearsago fax bro, it’s sad really

Lol I can see it now! Hey kids do you like when his head explodes with blood spray or spritz
To be fair if I saw a game with "where's my skull bitch?" in the title I would buy it immediately.

One of my best friends in high school loved 50 cent like it was all he listened to which annoyed me at the time because I was a die hard metal head. I remember getting this game for him for his birthday and we stayed up all night at his house drinking Dew and playing through it and 50 didn't annoy me so bad after. Good memories.
Daily reminder that games made in the early 2000's are very close to being considered retro-gaming.
fuck you lol
Sad but true :(
But this was late 2000s, not early
@@MARCOPETER82 early 2000s (2000-2004) was pretty similar to the mid-late 90s (95 to 99) so I kinda expected it
Shut up, stop it
This game was dope! Fun fact: Helicopters were only added to the game because 50 cent's 7 year old son liked helicopters and asked for them when he was playing a pre-release version of the game, so the developers had to shove them in somewhere or risk the ire of 50
Why would you let your 7 year old son play a game like this?
@@alastor8091 My dad made me watch some tarantino movies when I was 7. Some parents are pretty crazy lol
@@alastor8091 i played gta when i was 4
Alastor hey I played this game when I was 6
Helicopters are cool though.
Fun fact 50 Cent is actually a fan of Saints Row and wanted to make a movie based on the first two games.
Considering the first 2 games were based on gang war, hood and all that, I'm not surprised. I doubt 50 likes the new ones tho. Saints row 2 was one of my favourite games to play back in the day.
@@BlackLotusVisualArchive I had a total blast playing 3. I loved the drastically improved driving and physics and just really enjoyed every minute of it. But I also loved Dead Rising 3, so..
Watch POWER
Sanit row 3 was fun but it started getting dumb then 4 was horrible.
That's interesting because Saints Row 2 had some elements from "50 Cent: Bulletproof" included in the game.
"Salt and Vinegar master race"
how can one man be so based
By consuming salt and pissing vinegar.
@@HeyItsJonny vinegar is stored in the balls
@@doctordarkness100 Grass is made of grass
@@HeyItsJonny water is wet air
@@doctordarkness100 Salt is made of league players
This game is like a satire movie that people would be occasionally watching in a satire movie.
50 Cent shrugging off all the damage taken makes sense considering his In Da Club music video
It would be nice if more of 2000's underrated shooter (fps,tps) games getting a chance to be available on steam. like Scarface The World Is Yours, Stranglehold, Timesplitters, Black, The Suffering, Soldier Of Fortune, etc.
Stranglehold is available right now on GOG
@@BVGdragon1025 yeah I know, but It would be nice to have it on steam (in my opinion)
Timesplitters and black were never available for pc
@@pomfric yeah, It kinda sad that console game like these wasn't on pc. It would be fun to blast the shit out with mouse & keyborad though :)
@Shaman Xeed not sure how I feel about this one...gog's main draw for me was their stance on not having DRM in games. Steam is just a DRM machine of an application...

@@zen3817 legit
Lassi Kinnunen it is but oh my fucking god is this game fun!
This game was surprisingly decent and wayy better than Bulletproof. I was a huge G Unit fan back in the day, brings back so many memories.
bulletproof is a guilty pleasure for me. but blood in the sand is the tits.
I was sad that you couldnt carry around a dumpster for a shield like bulletproof though.
@Bro Vado G'd Up was/is my favorite track off that album.
The only thing Bulletproof did better than BoTS was story and Eminem cameos. BoTS is better in every other aspect
God Hand 3/10 IGN, never forget.
Play things you like instead of basing your judgment on what others find of a game. You'll find your personal hidden gems.
God hand is in my personal top 25 games. If I read the reviews I never even would have played it.
Absolutely. Clive Barker's Jericho, BulletWitch, and Tenchu Z are three games from the 360/ps3 era that were critically ravaged that I adore.
@@kaijucapuchin734 Don't know about the other 2, but Jericho really sucks. The story and the atmosphere are interesting, but the gameplay drags everything down, it's just boring.
Anyone that takes IGN seriously is a fool
@@kaijucapuchin734 I have Jericho on disc but I never got around to playing it.

Viva la revolucion!
Last time I was this early 50 Cent had a number one hit.
Boy. Damn.
I mean, he did have one very recently with pop smoke though.
Last time I was this early you could find him in the club!
I miss him
@@TylerSane5 with a bottle full of bub?
Power is a #1 hit 😉
The Cole Train's origin story.
“THE COLE TRAIN RUNS ON WHOLE GRAIN, BABY! WOOAAAHH!”
50 cent WISHES he's as cool as Cole Train WOO WOO!
review bulletproof as well i loved both of these games growing up and remember my mom making me throw out all my g-unit stuff when she found the games and realized it was the same guy as the cd's she made me throw out years earlier xD
So we're playing as an extremely rich man, who wears two hats for some reason, destabilizes developing countries to steal all their riches for himself, to maybe buy a fur coat emblazoned with diamonds so he can wear it on stage and sing about how great he is.
Also I love how 50 Cent acts towards, and treats his allies like shit and then later be surprised that they betray him. And whenever you corner a villain they somehow run off and get into an offscreen attack chopper.
as american as you can get
@@SpecShadow You read my mind. American capitalism at work.
ZP quoter spotted
Yeah, kind of an asshole.
So you watch Yahtzee, that's cool
I always thought "50 Cent" was just how much they thought the game was worth...
It looks exactly like the game you'll see a mid-level criminal pretending to play for three seconds in a bad hood film... before someone makes the mistake of telling him the "deal went bad"
7:19 Actually, you can earn extra pointa by trash talking your enemies in the Scarface game.
It fills your "Balls Meter" I think it was called and you can use it to activate invincibility.
Great game tho, you should try it, recently got a patch for the PC version.
Bulletproof will always be one of my favorite ps2 games. The soundtrack, the executions, Eminem being a crooked detective and Dr Dre an arms dealer, the setting and the comically absurd plot was great. Just wish the controls were a bit smoother. They need to remaster it!
This was during the time video games knew exactly what it wanted to be without trying to out do itself
"It's kinda like trying to kill someone by farting on them"-I'm pretty sure I could make that work.
I don't want to be near you
Oddworld kind of did something like that.
Well there was this one dude who accidentally killed his wife with a ditch oven
To be fair, most gamers could kill with only their body odour from sweating and masturbating to hentai for months without a shower.
Shart waterboarding
The whole concept of this game used to seem so bizarre to me back in the day, that I thought it was one of those fake games they used to put into movies in the early 2000's. 2009 was wild.
Fact: Cliff Bleszinski was so impressed by blood on the sand that he never could make a good game again.
It was actually was pretty fun. It came in 2009? Jesus H time is moving too fast.
2009? I thought it came out in like 2006 or something.
@@ptrcrispy Same lol.
Feels like it wasn't to long ago when people where hyped for Borderlands, or when everyone did talk about Cod MW2.
@@zebare726 Dude I remember like it was yesterday I had a countdown timer on my phone to GTA V lol. I vividly remember looking at and seeing 244 days, 3 hours, 8 minutes left and thinking "FUCK that's going take forever!" Lol. Next month GTA V will be out for seven years. Its mindfucking.
I swear it came out in 2008 lmao
You did this whole f****** video for that "G-Man lives-unit" joke
G-Man exposed
They should remaster both and charge 25 cents for each one.
perfect
7:17 You can raise your style meter in Devil May Cry by taunting your enemy.
DISMAL
I miss this era of gaming. So much random stuff that would get released with a decent publisher backing. I would be more than open to ridiculous stuff like this lol

You can thank 50 Cent's seven year old son for the shitty helicopter fights. When he played a pre-release version of the game, he enjoyed it but complained that there weren't any helicopters. The devs tried explaining that it wouldn't work in a third person shooter, but the kid demanded helicopters, so 50 made them put helicopters in the game.
...Brilliant
Blood on the Sand drunken co-op on the 360(ran great) was legit the most fun I had last gen. Content like this is why I subscribed homie. Keep it up Gman!
Yeah, but it's no Revolution X starring Aerosmith.
Remember- music, is the weapon.

Spec ops the line review. This is a must.
Hope, you can review Saints Row series soon in the future.
Hope he review the yakuza series too
I hope he reviews Mercenaries or Mercenaries 2
@CHRISTIAN LEWIS
And also the Dilogy of True Crime: Street in LA and New York City. Same goes with Godfather I and II.
SR3 is my sh*t.
He gotta wait for the Saints Row 2 PC version to be updated so it can actually be playable.
Terrorists: "You won't get your skull, 50 cent. You will only. DIE. TRYING!"
50 cent: "But I will get my skull.. Or I'm a... Ima.... Die... Tryin'..."
I've always had a soft spot for this game. I miss the simple action titles of the mid-to-late 2000's, where things are over-the-top and crazy, while crossing the line between silly and edgy.
It's neat how the rockets have a large smoke trail and are just slow enough to be dodged at the last second.
Is Cold Winter on the table? That was also developed by Swordfish Studios.
That game is so underrated. And gory as hell to boot.
Cold Winter was awesome
Oddly enough I played this on the 360 earlier this year while I was clearing out my backlog. I can confirm that some of the performance and graphic problems persist but never had it crash my system and the G-unit AI never had them standing around while I yelled at them to open a door with me. I think they were also more active in combat especially on the driving sections.
I was laughing through the entire video. Where's my skull
I was JUST listening to Guns For Sale by 50 Cent.
Highly underrated banger, along with U not like me
This was unexpected, but i like that he made a video on this game.
The fact that this game was published by THQ leaves some hope it may one day see a remaster, but the fact it uses a bunch of licensed music makes that hope feel like a bit of a stretch...
yo these graphics are actually pretty sick for 2009 lmao
Not really
The fact 50 cent casually having grenades attached to his body Armor while performing is something else🤣🔥
Dude, where's my skull?
U should review Dead To Rights: Retribtion. It's so awesome! I think you'd dig it
I heard that game was made from remains of "Escape from New York" game, there is even gameplay footage
/o-vp_8s7--Q
You guys are devils for saying this!
Devils for saying something this true! Best game ever. I loved the extensive bike customisation in that game. I sunk literal weeks into that bad boy.
That user interface tho...all those icons and numbers take up 70% of the screen lol.
I did not know that I was waiting for you to drop this. Thanks.
*Cover "50 Cent: Bulletproof" next. Nostalgia!*
Knowing next to nothing about this game and hearing the GOTY talk, I thought this was an out of season April fools joke at first.
They say don't judge a book by its cover.
Haha i used to love this game. Always wished they would have made another 50 cent game. It was really fun
Man you are really pumping out these reviews lately. No complaints, it's much appreciated to have consistency in these inconsistent times.
This needs a remaster
This is really one of the better review channels. There's actual critique, not just giving a play-by-play of what happens in the game. Good stuff
I remember watching Zero Punctuation's review around the time it came out. Obviously he spent the whole review complaining about the game (including oddly about the morality of it, something like "why are we celebrating people who abuse women" and whatnot iirc), but it's still a fun review.
Zero punctuation is a little baby
@@aceofhearts573 welcome to "missing the point" with ace of hearts!
I loved this game back in the day. I still remember the Jeff Gerstmann review for Giantbomb, that was one of their best video reviews.
Idk if you've ever heard of "The Saboteur" but it was a pretty cool game back in the day and it would be bad ass if you reviewed it
I was such a big fan of 50 when I was younger, I bought this and even 1000 achievement scored this on 360
Y’all remember seeing 50 cent gameplay in a yt video named GTA5 gameplay in like 2011-12
😂😂😂
This game was such an unexpected surprise back in 2009. Swordfish Studios previous game Cold Winter was pretty good as well.
I mean they they weren’t wrong time wise a lot of the marines were listening to 50 while rolling the down the road riddled with ieds in 105 degrees
50 cent is playing on radios in mw2
I might be shrooming rn, but this is one the best vids you've done mate. You're a legend.
I never thought I’d actually want this game but here we are
No related to this video, but i gotta say your "after the dust settles" approach to recent AAA releases, is pretty cool man. Nice to have the delay while the fanbase and hype settles down, and its nice to know you take the time to actually play the games, it shows with your fleshed out reviews. Keep up the good work. Stick to the games, none of the BS.
This game was actually really solid and fun for what it is.
I own this game and love it. Had a great time playing it. Btw Gmanlives is a fantastic reviewer. Never had I had this much respect for a reviewer. Great content as always mate.
The whole beauty of this game is that it can actually be picked up for 50 cents
Not anymore, copies of this game sell on ebay for $70 to $100
@@JBird401 Guess that's a pal region thing then. The game is not at all expensive here.
Thing is, I wouldn't be that sure that 50 Cent wasn't 100% serious during this game. I do imagine him playing the game thinking how badass and amazing he is for shooting down terrorists and Russians while his best hits are playing in the background.
Who wouldn’t
Can't wait for 50 to be revealed as the new smash character! Also I've been wanting to play this game for a while it's just never been at the top of my list so I hadn't bothered to get it
What would his Smash intro Tagline be?
@@magicjohnson3121 "ITS 50" followed by that laugh he does
Today is my bday... and this is the best gift I could have gotten
I remember playing the ps2 50 cent game and loving the dumpster mechanics to the point that i would play the entire level carryng the thing if i could.
This has to be one of my favorite video game reviews of all time!
Bruh this gives me 25 to life vibes,I need to get this.
This game is a cure for Me & the xbox360 after getting depressed playing GTA IV & Gears 2 storyline back in the days 😅...
He really could have used that money, heard he's down to his last cent.
Yea you heard wrong, he just signed a $150 million dollar deal with Starz last year.
@@jasonwright9076 It was a joke, I hope he's doing well.
I don't know what made you review this, but I'm glad you did
Devil May Cry and Bayonetta both give points for trash talking your enemies.
50 cent is a real life video game character, got shot 9 times and lived
It’s like grand theft auto but not grand theft auto
Exactly.
I don’t play this game per se when it came out, since most people in my country don’t even have constant access to PC or consoles really at the time. I do however remember the review of it from our local game magazine. They gave it a 6/10, citing repetitiveness in gameplay and barebone story but praised the graphics and music.
This shit was actually good, bulletproof too for the og xbox
When you talked about the way the taunts work it really made me think of the way that you can increase or keep your rank up with taunts in Devil May Cry, great review as always man! 👌🏽
Next review Wheelman with Vin Diesel
Needs to either remastered for the new gen or playable at least for PS4/5 and Xbox one/series X IMO
I thought you said "Ludacris" :(
I knew I was subscribed to you for a reason
2009? wasnt he already irrelevant in like 2005 or so?
Lol you may want to send the man some burn cream with that comment
Not really.
Yes.
The Massacre dropped in 2005, so he definitely was NOT irrelevant.
No he still had singles on the radio in 2009 his big run was 2002 to 2009
