The best engine for a Joe game is something along the lines of the Battlefront series: Varied characters with specific special powers, 3rd person, "clash of armies" style gameplay where you can hop in and out of iconic vehicles, interspersed with "Air" ("Space" in the old series) missions.
An RTS could be fun, but would probably have to be a separate game. 1st Person is not ideal. If you're pushing a brand you don't want to hide the characters you're playing as. Plus the FPS market is super-saturated and competitive, it'd have to be an astoundingly good game to get any traction. And of course, the biggest problem is that the average age of a "gamer" is 27 years old...which means they're well past toy-buying age. Even if you get into the younger ages, it's vastly more teenagers than preteens (the latter being the target market for the action figures). Not saying that a video game is a bad idea. It's just not the "magic bullet" that will solve all the brand's problems, and that's making the BIG assumption that any game that gets created would be particularly good in the first place. One thing is key: It would need to be independent of the movie(s). Because otherwise it'll be on such a compressed development schedule that it turning out even "average" would be more a happy/lucky accident than by design. |

I think they should make a g.i. Joe solitaire. You could choose joe or cobra logos for the cards!

Use the Unreal or Frostbite engine.
Third person. Vehicular combat. Basically, make it Battlefield, but with GI Joe skins. |

The problem is Hasbro. They need to have both 1st and 3rd person games. For playing as a generic Joe, 1st person isn't bad...but with Joe vs. Cobra, you want to see Snake Eyes or Scarlett in 3rd person.
I still play Rise of Cobra. It's really fun....IT'S A GAME!!!!! And like I've said before, a lot of the Retaliation figures (Cobra Trooper, Red Ninja, Alley Viper, Cyber Ninja/Night Creeper) show up in the game. Hasbro should work with EA to have the game available on gijoe.com...permanently....and add more characters/skins; as well as environments and villains like the Gamemaster, and his wonky Toy Island. I would also like it - as mentioned above - if Hasbro did a Kre-O G.I. Joe game. |

We have gone this long without one so it seems like we will never get one.

A good sandbox Joe game in GTA5 fashion would pull me in.
