Don't know how trustworthy or up to date this is but here goes:

Top 10 Games - All Formats Genre Format

1 50 Cent Bulletproof Action PS2

2 V8 Supercars 3 Racing PS2

3 Ice Age 2 The Meltdown Adventure PS2

4 Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion RPG Xbox 360

5 The Sims 2: Open For Business Simulation PC/Mac

6 50 Cent Bulletproof Action Xbox

7 Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion RPG PC/Mac

8 Driver Parallel Lines SE Action PS2

9 Call of Duty 2 Action Xbox 360

So 50cent and Driver are in the top 10 [?] that seems pretty bad to me [:p]

If everyone here could imagine their own top ten list, how many of those games appear in this top selling games list (apart from Oblivian [;)]?

Have any of you PLAYED the 50 cent game yet? Huh?

Give it a chance! ................ (and no, I have no interest to play it myself)

It was banned in Australia wasn't it? I'm sure it was. Did they release a cut down version or something?

It was refused classification in November last year. They have made some moderations and it has now been allowed.

Apparently they just removed the "arcade mode" and altered a few "over-the-top" cutscenes.

Haven?t played the game....don't really want to.

Shizzle!

Is it just me but is everyone starting to get tired of the GTA formula? It was great when GTA3 came out, but it seems to be really done to death now. When I had a go of San Andreas, I got bored after only a few missions. I can probably guess that 50 Cent Bulletproof will consist of the same missions where you:

1. assassinate people/blow up certain targets
2. follow/ram a vehicle
3. race/get chased while transporting someone, with some time limit

Souri, I completely understand. For me it was like, I realised that San Andreas was a great game, I knew it was impressive, etc etc ... but I just wasn't interested in it either.

I feel the same way about Oblivion [:o)]

It's interesting to see the success of different platforms - i.e. the top three games are all PS2, and the Xbox360 version of Oblivion is trouncing PC sales etc.

GTA is good, all three of them are good and I would say I enjoyed San Andreas even more not because it was any different but because they included little details that ultimately make a great game. I mean it has James Woods playing as a corrupted FBI agent, it doesn't get better than that!

I'm surprised that after so many GTA clones none of them is even close to the scale and/or quality of the GTA's. True Crime, Driver3, Getaway, 50cent, and a host of others no one remembers have all pretty much failed. But they sell well so why not make them? [;)]
