Is there actually anything that can kill you in this game?

[PratzStrike]

Later on? There are walls of firepower that come down the screen, patterns that are absolutely silly to try and dodge.

Wait, even Snake Eyes yells "YO JOE!"?

Hmmm they probabally made a mistake or the game just says YO JOE and it isnt ment to repreasent any one of the characters.

[PratzStrike]

Nope! Snake Eyes yells "YO JOE!" Which tells me the programmers didn't pay any attention to the actual show. Which is fine, I didn't play this game because I loved G.I. Joe, I'm actually kind of ambivalent to the show, I play it because when I was younger I loved this sort of forward-scrolling shooter.

I love a game full of big bodda booms! (I have no idea what that means, but it is funny saying it)

[PratzStrike]

Big Bada Boom is the sound effect for explosions. You're saying you love a game full of explosions. I'm pretty fond of them too.

[Topdek]

If this game wanted to be true to the cartoon, all your shots would miss the enemy and you'd have to rescue kids from refrigerators

[jhansell]

anyone else remember that snake eyes didnt talk...

[Preludemansh]

This game was the best! Do they make for xbox arcade or anything else? I would love to find

[MrMetalJesus]

Dude, I used to be at arcades SO MUCH growing up. I was there for X-Men, both Turtle games, Cowboys Of Moo Mesa-and I just BARELY remember this one. Konami really should come out with some kind of arcade classics disc somewhere down the line-so much content to pack on there! I'd buy it in an instant.

A new G.I. Joe video game should be based off the comic book... not the cartoons or the films

[bobtoeback]

@dansquatch Yeah exactly, I havent gotten around to watching much of Resolute yet, but they could make a really good game for sure. I think the characters are pretty cool, and would be great fun to use. That game based on the GI Joe movie looks awful, it needs to be independent of that stuff and just be in the joe universe

[dansquatch]

@bobtoeback You and me both dude. And they need to take that shit seriously. I mean put in the time and effort to make it good. In fact if they wanted to follow the tone of the animated GI Joe Resolute then I would be A Okay with that.

[dansquatch]

ugh, double post. My bad.

[dansquatch]

Why didn't I know this game existed until tonight? That's nuts. I spent so much time as a kid glued to arcade games and I fucking love me some GI Joe, to this day. Crazy. Looks super fun.

Those Cobra dudes are pretty stunned trying to melee Snake Eyes...
