G.I. Think it could be interesting if done the right way.

I think it could be a great idea if done in a style more like the original cartoon series, and NOT trying to be a CoD or Battlefield. Like a slightly more serious Team Fortress. Instead of picking classes, you pick characters. Like Tanks would be like Roadblock and Destro as an example. Multiple costumes for each character based on cartoons and comics. The only question is.....Do I use metal face Cobra Commander or Rag face Cobra Commander?

Edit- Pre-order bonus character? The Viper. Comes fully equipped with bucket and squigee. (I wonder if anyone is old enough to remember that)

*YAWN*

Honestly, why are such a good developer using such a boring license. I hope this isn't true.

I love G.I Joe.

G.I. Joe is a great franchise, but I don't know if it can handle another raping after the horrible movie and even more horrible last video game. I wish they would let someone who understands the franchise give it the treatment it deserves. Also, I think a TPS would be better. What if they did something like Star Wars Battlefront with G.I Joe... all the vehicles, and the environments with the Terror Drome. You can play as standard Cobra infantry and Joe infantry... and if you hit objectives you can play as main characters.

Easy to switch to TPS view in the Brink engine no doubt. Seems a good fit to me - the factions/characters easily fit a Brink scenario. Solid shooting already built - win/win

Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks on AI, KPop Demon Hunters, and Harry Potter

Nilay writes: "Chris and I also talked a lot about Hasbro investing so heavily in games and digital media. For example, you’ll hear Chris mention several times how big the mobile game Monopoly Go is for Hasbro. And while Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons are already huge, load-bearing brands, Hasbro is also trying to expand more into the video game space with original games, like Exodus, which is slated to release next year."
