Sierra Spring Break 08: 50 Cent team took out "n-word," although it may still be added

PS3 News from N4G | 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand

PS3 - 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand - Sierra Spring Break 08: 50 Cent team took out

Julian Widdows, game director of 50 Cent: Blood in the Sand, has told videogaming247 that developer Swordfish Studios removed the "n-word" from the final script, but that it may make an appearance in the final game.

"In the original scripts we actually took it out," he said, speaking at the Sierra Spring Break 08 in Mallorca.

"We'll see how the finished game works out. In the first game it was included as it was all part of the street environment so it was deemed acceptable, but watch this space on that."

We interviewed Widdows later that day and brought up the subject again.

VG247: Is that a decision you guys have to make, or is that upstairs?

Julian Widdows: That's upstairs. However, we obviously have our own thoughts and feelings on that and they're shared with [Vivendi Games].

Mark Rein "blown away" by 50 Cent

PS3 News from N4G | 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand

PS3 - 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand - Mark Rein

CVG writes: "We all wondered what the "fantastic" UE3 game was all about at Swordfish Studios, when Epic VP Mark Rein said he was "blown away" by an early preview last year. It turned out to be 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand, and as it happens, game director Julian Widdows was well chuffed by the comments.

"When we heard he was coming we were like 'oh no, we're gonna get killed!' But he was over the moon, we're chuffed about it," Widdows told CVG in an interview.

'We're obviously an Unreal Engine 3 licensee and he just came in for a visit and said 'oh my god, I can't believe you're working on this, it looks phenomenal'. That was it; it wasn't anything particularly formal, he came in to say hello to his licensees and was blown away by it. That was great for us.'"

MTV also says it's inspired by Epic's Gears of War (isn't everything these days?).There's drop-in, drop-out co-op with all of ...

Surfer Girl: Admits she's wrong, new Ubisoft game, new Simpsons game and more

PS3 News from N4G | 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand

PS3 - 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand - Surfer Girl: Admits she's wrong, new Ubisoft game, new Simpsons game and more

Surfer girl writes: "I learned a few days ago it was a sequel, not spiritual successor (yes, that information was wrong), coming to PS360, official announcement later this year, release next year. I chose to believe this and not believe the new Swordfish-developed UE3-powered 50 Cent game is set in the Middle East featuring gameplay similar to Gears of War. At least I did not believe this report as being fact. Finally, Ubisoft has a fashion design casual title and a team at EA RS is currently working away at a new Simpsons title"

PS3 News from N4G | 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand

PS3 - 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand - 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand Details, First Images Revealed

Three years ago, 50 Cent was "Bulletproof." Now he's leaving "Blood on the Sand." The hop-hop star is getting a new video game this year, one that takes him to new platforms, a new game developer and a whole new role. And for anyone who wasn't satisfied with 2005's multimillion-selling "Bulletproof," the game's producer hears you. This one is going to be better.

"Blood on the Sand" is something more exotic, more Hollywood blockbuster. This game sets 50's character against a cabal of international gangsters on a far-flung, bullet-riddled adventure.
