B-Grade Bonanza: Mediocre/Crap PS3 Games That For Some Reason I Really Want To Play, Installment No. 1

One of the things I miss the most about the PS1 and PS2 generations (aside from the scads of adventure and RPG games that seem to be in short supply these days) is the fact that I could purchase B and C grade games on a whim,because they were so cheap. You know the ones I'm talking about - broken, simplistic fighting games like Evil Zone, horrifying FMV titles like Combat Queen, bad anime adaptations like School Rumble, Osama bin Laden-hunting games like... uh, Fugitive Hunter... the list goes on and on. Now, obviously, I can't go doing the same thing nowadays, as most crap games are
still going to run me over 2 kyaw (I was laughing my ass off at Datablitz the other day - they were selling Rogue Warrior for Php 2,950.00!!! WTF, good luck with that, pals.) So my only choice is to track down the games that I'm morbidly curious about second hand, so I can have the pleasure (?) of playing them all.

Or borrowing them from beloved friends. Where art thou, my wealthy, like-minded, generous benefactors?

One game I really wish those benefactors would lend me is 50 Cent: Blood On The Sand.

"You filthy gentleman of Arab descent! Wheh Mah Skull????"

Now, I'm well aware that this isn't a "bad" game by any means - simplistic, arcadey and low-IQ, yes, but not bad. But I really want to play Blood On The Sand for the "story". Ever since the "Wheh Mah Skull?" meme made the rounds of gaming blogs and message boards everywhere, my secret, forbidden desire to play this game has grown ever larger.

Just think about it, people - this is the plot, in a nutshell:

1) Mr. Cent, for some inexplicable reason, decides to do a show in the Middle East.

2) The concert promoters pay him in kind, in the form of a crystal skull.

3) Dirty terroristic middle-eastern types steal his skull.

4) Mr. Cent says "Wheh Mah Skull?!?!", gets royally pissed off, and kills a whole bunch of unfortunate Arab dudes with his, um, G-Unit.

THAT'S THE BEST FUCKING STORY I'VE EVER HEARD! I need this.
