There's classic elements like that and the Snake Armor that I'm hoping they turn into toys or figures that aren't in the film.
Just like the TF game had Welker's voice and the drones. Of course, I don't play video games, and I'm sure as hell not buying a console to just play a mediocre Joe game, but some of the designs in it look good, whether the graphics are okay or not. I stopped playing video games when the buttons outnumbered my finger count, except for the Wii, which I bought and we never play anymore. I'm just an old fart who likes old school games like Mario and Donkey Kong, with child graphics. "You mean you have to use your hands?" "That's like a baby's toy!" |

Does it have that "classic" looking Cobra Commander game token? If so, I don't think so, I wouldn't be able to distinguish it as Cobra Commander without it looking like a squid was welded directly to his hamburger face.

I wonder if Heavy Duty puts the "HD" on his underwear also?

I don't know if it's the same game, but back in the day I had a GI Joe game for the Commodore 64. It was a basic one room side screen shooter.
You had to fight Cobra, and I remember that when you fought Zartan, he would sometimes appear to be a Joe and used their gun and style. Here's a youtube video about it. Man, I loved that game. This one was much like Contra as you moved forward or upwards on the screen. There were only 4 Joes I think you could pick from, Duke, Scarlett, Snakes, and maybe Roadblock!? I think one of the moderators on this site said he had this arcade game in his house! Now that's collecting! |

This is sad...I was so hopeful for a good game considering all the engines that are available. After playing Resident Evil 5 this week and now seeing what this game looks like, I`m really disappointed ! I will pass on this one as I refuse to support a product with which a company has intentionally cut corners with the expectation of the product name to be reason alone for it to sell. How about Call of Duty`s engine with Joe characters or a Splinter Cell or Metal Gear or even Tenchu type game with Joe characters added? I know...how about combining the great elements of all of these games and put out a great product to go along with a strong and recognizable product name...just a thought.

You had to fight Cobra, and I remember that when you fought Zartan, he would sometimes appear to be a Joe and used their gun and style. Here's a youtube video about it. Man, I loved that game. As for the new one. It's tough not to just knee jerk hate like a lot of folks because with the track record of movie based games. So I'll just say I'm disappointed. And I'll rent it with low expectations. Look at Batman. They've tried around a dozen times to make a good video game with terrible results. The new Arkham Asylum version "looks" good, but we'll see on that too. It's not easy to make the leap, even when a brand would appear to be a slam dunk when being developed to a video game. The problem with a joe title is that it fits in a very similar genre as many other games. Action,stealth,shooter combo.... other games have already done it better and are on 3rd and 4th iterations of those games, learning a little each time (halo, call of duty, rainbow 6 series just to name a few). With no real innovation and bringing nothing to the table but familiar names and skins on an average action game with NO online muliplayer... I can't help but have really really low expectations. Another huge hurdle for the developers is the stringent deadlines to meet a movie's launch. A wise man at Nintendo once said a bad game released on time will be a bad game forever. A good game released late will be a good game forever. |

Now THAT I can agree with, the HISS does look pretty slick. See some positivity for those catching feelings over others opinions It is just preview footage, so we all could be eating our words come summer. I actually want the game to work, movie or not. GI Joe has been getting screwed in the video game department since day one.

This game is going to suck on so many levels for so many reasons. Graphically, it looks like a PS2 game. Gameplay wise, it looks sluggish, repetitive, and there is nothing there to make it stand out from what has already been done.
Hasbro should have either taken the game to Infinity Ward to make it Call of Duty 4 style, or to Rockstar to do it like it is a GTA game.
