"Who is Blood on the Sand for? It's not enough to be a fan of shooters, much less a fan of 50 Cent. It's not even enough to be a fan of shooters and 50 Cent. Instead, you have to be a fan of shooters, 50 Cent, games that aren't very good, and games that only marginally have anything whatsoever to with 50 Cent beyond spending a lot of time staring at the back of his head and occasionally listening to his voice. If that describes you, Blood in the Sand is your kind of game. However, while I played through this pap and let my mind wander, wondering how much longer it was going to go on, I couldn't help but think that even you deserve better."

Thankfully, not many things happened in terms of big games. So we got to delve into the games we missed due to the unexpected leave of absence. Keep in mind, we recorded the day before ODST. So there is no Halo talk. Come back next week for an ODST special.
This week we discuss:
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Guitar Hero 5
50 Cent: Blood in the Sand (and how awesome it actually is)
Left 4 Dead 2 banned in Australia
Street Fighter 4 sequel?
Shadow Complex cheaters getting pwned by Microsoft
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 special edition 250GB Xbox 360 console
We should be back to our regularly scheduled programming now. We (Spiiike and Dogeyed) apologise for the lack of content. Tune in next week however for a chance to win...well something Halo related."
Wait till this gets put on sale, which it will in a few weeks time, to buy, or rent for a weekend jaunt into. If you do the latter, try and find two copies and play with a friend, it'll be exponentially more entertaining.
Lens of Truth writes, "For our latest Lens of Truth LIVE! we had a chance to sit down and compare 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. We had a lot of fun playing this one but there were a few major differences. You have to ask yourself a tough question. What means more to you? Looks or performance?"
Yeah, you know something is wrong when you screen tear on firing a pistol. All I have to say is, "The b!tch took my skull!" I still can't believe that 50 Cent said that...wait...actually I can. Classic.
I don't know Rudesole. I think you got your Sony glasses on. This one looks like it should have gone to the 360 4 sure. Much clearer on the 360.
You can't stop the train baby!
Whats even weirder is that a 50 cent game was consider fun to play. Gears of War controls scheme is a good thing.
When the screen tearing is that absolutely horrendous by firing a single shot you know the game's got problems.
Capcom contained it on RE5 for the 360, THQ could not.
Whats the matter your Xbox is no longer the platform that runs the Unreal engine the best anymore. See what happens now that PS3 potential is final being harnessed the Xbox can't hold its head above water much longer. Gears of War 3 will be on the PS3 next because the Xbox has reached it's limit with the first Gears of War.
Take me to the candy shop and then lick my lolly-pop Rudesole!
"Lens of Truth" gave to only other Unreal engine head two head win to the 360 Bioshock. So what, one CRAPPY game by one CRAPPY game company may be better on your little DVD player. Good for you!
Can you play Gear of War? Didn't think so
Shogun Master says: Wow, someone only owns one system and his name says it all.
I happen to love Lens of Truth because they are just honest guys (like Shogun Master) who love games and aren't influenced by anyone.
And this site your on right now boy is the biggest culprit for the "division of gamers". Wake up!!!
Sainara!
What's the matter? Did someone take your Red stapler? Get a clue and get back to the basement.
You said
"Xbox 360 version had the worst screen tearing ever. PS3 wow all the way."
What about Golden Axe! lol!
360 has a significant graphical edge. Has more detail e.t.c. However the screen tearing clearly suggest that they are maxing out the 360 capabilities
PS3 being more powerful than 360 doesn't have any problem with this. I just wished they would have spent more time to polish up the PS3 version
really the screen tearing is so bad I can't believe it was a tie. PS3 won this h2h easy. So the Unreal 3 engine runs superior on the PS3. Looks like the Xbox is no longer the Unreal system after all.
well it was a forced tie really. The 360 has the better graphics but loses in the performance department. Were as the PS3 was a little leaner on the visuals but excelled in performance. Pretty fair if you ask me.
Yes the tie is fair. Leave it up to the player to decide. IMO screen tearing like that is just to much for me to handle.
I think its about time you trade in your Xbox. If it can't run the Unreal engine anymore what will they do. This is a good indication that Bioshock 2 will run better on the PS3. Look even the excerpt image has an image of the RROD. LOL
Shogun Master says: Xbox girl should change her name, she is a cheating wench!
Oh, and 50 cents game sould cost exactly that! lol!
This comparison was awesome. Although LoT went with a tie, I think I'd get the 360 version (if I was getting this). The 360 screen tearing looks 100% annoying.
Annoying is right. I cannot stand bad production values. I wonder if an install would change the screen tearing? I don't think so but does anyone know about for sure?
