Game Revolution: G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra Review

Game Revolution writes: "Let's get the important part out of the way first: This game is awful. I'll expand on that in just a minute, but if you are considering a purchase, DON'T. It's worse than the movie, if only because you have to participate in the crappiness.

click to enlargeNow that that's out of the way, let's dissect G.I. Joe's undeniable shittiness. It's an overhead style shooter in the vein of Smash TV, with guns that have the same capacity for ammunition as the ones you get in Contra but only half as great. And a Gears of War-style cover system of hiding behind the nearest wall like a pussy (Really... what kind of Real American Hero hides when shit gets hectic?). Worst, its story is actually worse than the shitty plot of the lousy movie it's based on. I know that's been mentioned already, but there isn't much else to say."

The Arkham Asylum treatment: 4 licensed properties that deserve good video-game reboots

With Batman: Arkham City continuing to prove that licensed games can be good, what other properties deserve another shot?

THR1LLHOUSE4574d ago

I would love a good GI Joe game...I'm thinking a gritty FPS that is secretly super cheesy. Like, you've got your team of dudes charging into battle yelling "WE'RE OSCAR MIKE!" or whatever, but then they're all carrying laser guns and nobody gets killed.

Harry Potter: Modern Warfare!

Tolkoto4574d ago

I'd kill for a great Harry Potter game.

NagaSotuva4574d ago

A new Discworld would require the finest next-generation pickles to succeed.

SybaRat4574d ago

Holy crap, that last G.I. Joe game was utter crap. Yes, I played it. At gunpoint. Shoulda just taken the bullet.

Cosplay Babe of the Week is the Baroness

J Lynch: "It seems like every week when we’re trying to figure out who to pick as the CBotW, we end up looking to the fighting genre because game designers have intentionally made the female characters of that genre appear “over the top” (and quite often in the “top” area). Instead we’ve looked to the action genre and plucked a character from the world of games based on cartoons and movies. While games based on licensed materials rarely satisfy, we think our pick this week for the Cosplay Babe of the Week does a good job."

hells yea I would. That one doing laundry is SO fine.

hay5037d ago

There's something about tight clothes, big boobies and nice asses :D

I'm sold for that asian beauty who dominated the gallery with picture amount. Also last pic from second page. That girl looks evil, I love it, great cosplay.

GunShotEddy5037d ago

Actually like that these girls pulled off sexy while be covered. See ladies, you don't have to be half-naked to be hot.

JohnnyMann4205037d ago

Don't give away the secrets....lol

vgn245037d ago

Something about the red hair on her. She's the asian Baroness?

RageAgainstTheMShine5037d ago

jphelps805037d ago

She have worn that red wig and done Scarlett from GI Joe and do like a both sides thing. Very nice.

charlescox45037d ago

Asians FTW. The one on page two destroys em all. And thatOs taking into account that the others are hot too.

BeaRye5037d ago

The one doing laundry is the same ciosplayer who does that super popular Morrigan. She's very well 'equipped' for cosplaying.
