Fitty says parents should buy his game for their kids

Posted on Wednesday 23 November 2005

From Reuters:

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Rapper 50 Cent, once shot nine times on the street in a gang incident, said on Tuesday parents should buy their children his new video game, rated ‘mature’ for blood, gore and sexual themes, and use it as a teaching tool.

“Just because it is rated mature doesn’t mean you shouldn’t buy it for your kids,” the rapper, whose given name is Curtis Jackson, told Reuters in an interview on Tuesday. “Play the game and explain to them what they are playing.”

I agree with Mr. Cent. Research the games you buy for your kids. Some you may want to hold off on till they’re older, others you can play with them and discuss what’s going on and make sure they understand the difference between games and real life.

Still, you may want to choose something other than 50 Cent: Bulletproof, if IGN’s review is anything to go by.
