Descripción del fabricanteSuit up, grab your gear and prepare
to lock and load as you take control of the elite GI Joe team against the evil
forces of Cobra. Based on the upcoming film from Paramount Pictures, the GI
Joe video game picks up where the movie leaves off, allowing players both in
single player mode, as well as a local co-op multiplayer mode, to re-create and
relive the greatest moments from the blockbuster film, classic cartoon and
action figure toy line.
Gameplay
At heart GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra is an old-school 3D shooter with a
fast-paced arcade feel. The game elaborates on the storyline that drives the
major motion picture of the same name, but is not bound by it. This means that
along with many of the characters that make an appearance in the movie, you can
also expect to see additional faces and references from the franchise. Players
choose from 12 playable Joe characters, including Snake Eyes, Duke, Gung Ho and
Heavy Duty, each with his own combat specialty, weapons of choice, and special
enhanced abilities. Each character falls under one of three classes: heavy,
combat soldier or commando. It's the players task to pick the character with the
skills that best suits the combat situation at hand. Through these characters
players will also have access to a variety of vehicles, some not seen since much
earlier days in the franchises history.
As players battle across levels, eradicating Cobra units as they go, they will
take damage as well as accumulate points. But as they pass through danger they
will automatically regenerate health points, so simply staying alive pays a
certain amount of dividends. With actual victory in engagements though they will
also fill their "ability meter." This meter when completely full allows
characters to unleash for a short time, their current character's unique special
ability on an enemy. They may also bank this ability to gain access to the
"Accelerator Suit," which related to the movie storyline, provides invincibility
for a limited time as well as a different arsenal of weapons.
Local Co-op Multiplayer
Along with a robust single player campaign, players can also choose to engage
Cobra with a friend in the game's local cooperative game mode. As in the single
player mode, within this players battle their way across levels, clearing as
many Cobra members out of their path as they go using the variety of weapons,
vehicles and skills at their command. The beauty of the mode is that although
you are working together towards a goal, you are also earning individual points,
which in a way makes for a joint cooperative and competitive endeavor.
Plenty of Unlockables
The Rise of Cobra features a variety of unlockables in a variety of areas
that keep its arcade-style action fresh. Just a few of these include four
unlockable Cobra bosses, which add to the replayability of the game; more than
70 file cards which hold the vital stats for Joe and Cobra characters seen in
the game; and even several public service announcements (PSAs) featuring footage
from the original GI Joe cartoon.
