    GI JOE Operation Blackout is an 8 hour long campaign game, plus multiplayer that tells a new story of Joe's vs Cobra. The developer said its made by fans for fans! If you are a GI JOE fan, you are going to really enjoy this game!

    The reviews are moronic, this game is great! Would've gave it 8 but wanted to make up for all those bitter low scores. It's fun on higher difficulty and reminds me of why I even started playing the PlayStation. GI Joe is legendary and while no one is perfect and this game has points it can improve on, its still awesome to finally have a GI Joe game.

    G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout is messy. The presentation is inconsistent, while the story is serviceable at best. The addition of local multiplayer outweighs the lack of online play, and the game is lengthy enough. However, the poor combat mechanics drag down the experience heavily, and on a platform that's absolutely bursting with more competent third-person shooters, this is one that you can easily pass on.

    GI Joe: Operation Blackout could have been something special, but it doesn’t capitalize on its nostalgia effectively, and has too many shortcomings to stand out in any meaningful way against the countless action games already available on every platform. It might be worthwhile as co-op fodder with a younger player, but everyone else might want to give this a pass.

    If you're a sentimental fan of G.I. Joe, then you are the most likely to truly enjoy this game. G.I. Joe fans will enjoy the characters, the things to collect, the Saturday morning cartoon-ish visuals, as well as the campy cartoony storyline. For all others, this will just come across as a run-of-the-mill third-person shooter game that will require some patience to find a control scheme setting you can work with.
