Gamebosh Review: G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra (Wii)

Based on this summer's hottest action movie starring Tatum O'Neill as Duke and Rachel Nichols as Shana 'Scarlett' O'Hara (hubba hubba), G.I Joe gets a 21st Century make-over courtesy of The Mummy director Stephen Sommers. This is the video game based on the movie and is the first of its kind (okay, that was sarcasm).

Having had the pleasure (!) of playing Rise of Cobra on the Xbox 360, our hearts sank when the Wii version of the game arrived. Surely it'll be even worse, we thought. The strange thing is that the Wii is probably the best place for this old-school arcade game because Wii owners are used to poor graphics and simple game-play in their run n' gun games. It's a perfect fit.

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?

THR1LLHOUSE4550d 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!

Tolkoto4550d ago

I'd kill for a great Harry Potter game.

NagaSotuva4550d ago

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

SybaRat4550d 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.

hay5013d 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.

GunShotEddy5013d 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.

JohnnyMann4205013d ago

vgn245013d ago

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

RageAgainstTheMShine5013d ago

jphelps805013d ago

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

charlescox45013d ago

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

BeaRye5013d ago

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