Holy Crap, 50 Cent Lives in Connecticut!

Regardless of the fact that now every time I visit my parents' house I have to watch my back for 'fitty', MTV.com has an hilarious piece up (by none other than Stephen Totilo of legitimate MTV blog 'Multiplayer', the poor bastard) wherein said interviewer is subjected to pulling literary blood from the stone that is 50 Cent's brain, which is located in fitty's head, in his Farmingdale, Ct. home. As someone from Connecticut and someone who's been to Farmingdale, the enormity of how funny 50 Cent walking around that town is may be lost on some of you. Trust us, it's pretty goddamn funny.

Whether or not you understand that level of comedy is one thing; fitty's new game "50 Cent: Blood on the Sand" (a sequel, mind you, to 2005's Bulletproof -- a million plus seller with lower than a 50% average on metacritic...), however, will assuredly leave you rotflmao all night long. Fitty himself, speaking about his input on the game, had this to say:

"I enjoyed 'Blood Diamond,' and I wanted to take some of that concept and move it into the video game front."

Right! Blood Diamond! Totally! Look, we get it, he's a mogul, right? He's not supposed to be the creative brains behind his very very very silly upcoming videogame, he's just supposed to look pretty and spit hot fire every now and then. Still, even though this game is being developed with Unreal Engine 3, we expect slim to none in terms of actual gameplay. As a person who has seen first hand the urban community's reaction to 50 Cent: Bulletproof (at least in Philadelphia), I can handily say these folks publishing Blood on the Sand should worry about their investment a little more this time -- the public may know better by now.

Oh, and we totally stick by Joystiq with this one (no pun intended) and we're also covering as much news about this mess as it unfolds. To see the original interviews as well as the original article (that may or may not be held together by hope and dreams), follow me there.
