In 50 Cent's video game, 50 gets caught in a web of corruption, double-crosses and shady deals that lead him on a bloody path through New York's drug underworld. Working with the unlikeliest of allies, the streets heat up as 50 Cent takes on the most dangerous crime families in the city, uncovering an international conspiracy with devastating implications. The streets are watching as 50 Cent blasts his way to the truth.

Gamers and fans of 50 Cent and G Unit can now get their hands on the highly engaging third-person shooter, which boasts over four CDs of music including new exclusive tracks and remixes, more than a dozen music videos and tons of bonus features.

"This game is hot," said 50 Cent. "It's an exciting time for me and G Unit as we've gone from the music world into the virtual world and I can't wait for my fans to join in on the action."

"50 Cent: Bulletproof breaks new ground by offering the ultimate collaboration of music, game play and storytelling from the point of view of one of the world's hottest entertainers," said Cindy Cook, Chief Strategy and Marketing Officer, VU Games. "Never before has an artist of 50 Cent's caliber fully committed all of their creative talent to deliver a video game that is a fully engaging entertainment experience."
