The Rise of Cobra Game Reviews


Experiencing G.I. Joe again after all these years, reminds us of those days when we would setup elaborate battlegrounds in our rooms, using common household items, to pit G.I. Joe action figures against Cobra Command action figures. Now, a couple of decades later, when we picked the latest game based in the G.I. Joe universe, the feeling was one of nostalgia and mirth at the ignomity of two well-equipped power hungry groups fighting for control over the world. It all reeks of unrelenting military machismo, where even a female G.I. is a Joe.

The Factions

Like most war stories, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra has two parties that are at each other’s throats and then there is a weapons manufacturer. The weapon’s company in this story goes by the name of M.A.R.S and it is developing warheads for the U.S. Army (G.I. Joe) and is simultaneously selling some nifty nanotechnology to a group fighting to bring a new world order (Cobra). So the stage is set — for most part of the game, you get to play one of the several operatives of G.I. Joe, which is a super secret division of the U.S. Army.

Theatre of War

The game is set across the regular gamut of tile sets of frigid, jungle and desert landscapes. Each of these locations has four to five missions, along with another locked mission. Mission objectives are quite straight forward and they can fit into three categories — rescue mission, search-and-destroy, and intelligence gathering. You start the game in a mission room to select two G.I. Joe characters for your next venture. The game has a fairly impressive roster of 12 G.I. Joe characters and four Cobra characters to choose from.
