GREAT GAME FOR KIDS AND ADULTS NEW FANS N OLD ALIKE.
OK honestly I knew nothing about the game but liked the movie and the franchise. This is an excellent game for a movie adaption. Perfect for kids or adults. I grew up playing with the original series toys from 1985 and up. This brings back a lot of memories with a new spin on it. The franchise has gone hollywood and has made some changes but still keeps its soul. I personally enjoyed the movie... I know there are diehard fans that think its got to be exact to the original but realistically every artist is going to paint differently and if you have an open mind you can enjoy it. Now the gameplay is excellent for a 3rd person shooter. Think 3-d contra w 2 player co-op and if ur playing as a single player you can switch characters on the fly in a fire fight. This is a great tactic, u have 3 bars of life and as you get hurt it goes down when you are down to one just switch to your other character. Worst case if you actually do die, you come right back and just lose points. It has missions in a wide variety of areas, desert, jungle, arctic and more. You play over 10 characters which you must find and free then buy to use including some favorites as Duke, Snake eyes, Stormshadow, Gung Ho, and many more. Each character has their own unique special weapon and own unique style either commando think sword or hand to hand specialist, combat soldier which is shooter and melee blend and then ur heavy weapons specialists... blow it up. Certain types can access certain areas so you can play through certain levels to find filecards, intel, or other Joes. The fact that you can die over and over again is great for young kids that dont understand strategy and game play basics, while an adult can guide them through playing co-op. It also has vehicles that you can drive and play in. This is a solid game I'm hoping they can make an original series game like this, with the old school vehicles, figures, and playsets. So all in all it was a great gameplay experience. Now for the downsides... Certain times camera angles are not what you would hope for the camera is fixed the entire time but changes on its own at certain points disorienting gameplay at times. As in any shooter certain times gameplay can get redundent but they do a fair job with changing up your opponents throughout the game. One other thing that would've been a real treat is to have allowed your characters to have leveled up like in the x-men or marvel ua games. It would've added to the replay value of this game. Over all for what this game is I give it a 4.5 out of 5. If ur a diehard fan of the 80's series you might give it a 3 out of 5. Bottom line this is as close as you can get to playing with the 3 3/4 inch toys in a game as you can get to date. Fun for kids and adults alike. What do you think after playing this game, let me know any feedback is appreciated. and remember knowing is half the battle Yo Joe.

For the sick and twisted, this is slightly amusing.
I guess you could call this a cult film, wow... from the director of kids... this is a bizzare set of stories from this little, disturbed, poor, trashed, town in ohio. If you dislike animal cruelty, mistreatment of people with down syndrome, twins, or gay midets... This movie isn't for you. It is bizzare, and funny if you have the right sense of humor. My brother says stoners would laugh their asses off from this movie. Just see for yourself... if you have the stomach for it.Let me know what u think, please rate this review.Thank you.

If you love standup, get the master's set.
George Carlin is the best comic mind of the 20th century period. He had broken the mold for all comics with his uncensored shows a pioneer for comedy, and setting the tone for 100s if not over a 1000 comics with HBOs uncensored comedy. Lenny Bruce may have took most the heat for the foul languge in comedy, but Carlin turned it into an artform. He holds no punches and doesn't apolagize for his rude, crude, and intelligent ideas. With each show he gets harder and angrier each year.... I reccommend this, Carlin collection, and his cd boxed set, with his early albums, like class clown, fm/am, and toledo window box. Please take the time to rate this review, thank you.
