50 Cent Ok, Youre Right-
from the forthcoming album BEFORE I SELF DESTRUCT
in stores Sept 09.
Featuring footage from the Philips Cinema 21:9 film Carousel, which was awarded the Cannes- Lion 2009 GRAND PRIX.

Here's a sneak peak at the footage, with several sequences standing out. The trailer begins with Chow Yun Fat's Roshi describing in voice-over the origins of the Dragonball story - how in ancient times, an evil almost destroyed the earth, and that now that evil had returned. There's much, much more to be seen...so watch...
Presentation (7.5)
There's an over-the-top (in a good way) intro movie and then some polished menus that feature wrestlers on the side. Oddly, the menus move slow in-game and make you wait to press a button.
Graphics (8.5)
The wrestlers look great and it's cool to see the ring ropes bounce after a big move. Thankfully, there usually aren't that many clipping issues, but the crowds look bad.
Sound (7.0)
As limited as the moves are, the commentary is worse and more repetitive. Moves sound good. The in-ring voices are pulled from one lame pile, but the story VO from Nash and everyone else is solid.
Gameplay (7.0)
The controls work well and moves look good, but you're going to see the same moves over and over and start to get bored. Tag matches are boring and ugly. The AI is dumb as well as cheap.
Lasting Appeal (6.5)
You can probably get eight hours out of the story. Although I like the controls, the limited move set makes the experience repetitive. There aren't many matches to keep you coming back.
OVERALL (6.7 - Passable)

THQ has officially detailed Legends, a title that will harken back to the days of neon shirts, mullets, and the classic heel/babyface dynamic. Set in the 1980/1990s, Legends will feature more than 40 grapplers from one of the golden ages of sports entertainment. We don't know a lot of the folks we'll be seeing in the game, but we do know that Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant are in as well as a smattering of valets and managers that play an important role in matches. In related, awesome news: Bobby "The Brain" Henan has been confirmed.
Legends aims to recreate the telecasts of the time with "signature ring entrances, renowned commentators, notable venues and much more" and will also implement a brand new combo fighting system that is grapple-based. Taunts, strike attacks, and reversals will also make up the control scheme as Superstars battle in "current and nostalgic match types."
While probably similar-to-SmackDown-but-different modes such as Create-A-Legend (customizable costumes, entrances, and move sets) and online matches are in the game, Legends will also boast WrestleMania Tour. In this gameplay mode, you'll play key matches from WrestleManias gone by -- complete with classic WWE footage to introduce the bout and explain its importance and storyline.
Sadly, that's where the Legends news ends, but be sure to check out the screenshots below and keep an eye out for our E3 look at WWE Legends of WrestleMania this week.
Based on the hard-hitting interactive videogame, Max Payne tells the story of a maverick cop determined to track down those responsible for the murder of his family and partner. Hell bent on revenge, his obsessive investigation takes him on a nightmare journey into a dark underworld. As the mystery deepens, Max (Mark Wahlburg) is forced to battle enemies beyond the natural world and face an unthinkable betrayal.

When A.J. Styles and Samoa Joe are in the ring, they're usually too busy breaking people's noses to worry about doing their own commentary.
That sucks.
However, through the magic of videogames, IGN and Midway are proud to bring you a match between the two and commentated by the two. That's right, the folks behind TNA iMPACT! on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 pulled some strings and got the two grapplers in the same room to commentate on a match between their virtual selves.
Will A.J.'s speed keep him out of Joe's clutches? There's only one way to find out …
