    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is awful. Don’t bother with the other reviews this is the only one you need. There’s nothing positive that can be said for it. The controls are junk, they make the game clunky and take away from gameplay while simultaneously making the game more difficult. If you play the campaign by yourself settle in for a massive amount of frustration at the AI that will accompany you on missions. Not only will the be of no help or usefulness what do ever but they’ll also get in your way. There are aspects that just make no sense as well such as the ridiculous reload times. It takes Snake Eyes actual seconds to reload his “uzi” instead of the split second practically immediate time that it should. Don’t waste your money on this, I’m a die hard Joe fan, how die hard? I spent eight years in the USMC, my first enlistment was for regular infantry and my second was special operations all rooted in the fact that there was a Gung Ho figure in his dress blues. I love the new classified line as well but this games is just horrible and the people who made it owe me an apology. Expand

    G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout is a too generic shooter with serious problems that hinder its playability. Only recommended for hardcore Hasbro fans.

    G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout on Xbox One has an audience, but I can't imagine it's a very big one. The title is perfectly serviceable but there are so many options that are of higher quality and more worthy of your time that it’s tricky to want to get involved here. However if you are a fan of this franchise, it will be a fun romp through the world of G.I. Joe; something which is perhaps all it was ever trying to be in the first place.

    I am pleasantly surprised coming out of G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout after playing through the 17 story missions multiple times. Once you gather the controls it’s a simple game with decent visuals and audio that can entertain you for hours. I wish the game offered more than local co-op only but those with friends should be able to enjoy it together cooperatively and competitively.
