G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra is a run and gun shooter, similar to old school classics and full of nostalgia.  Want to know how the game rates, and hear about the co-op?  After all, knowing is half the battle, right?

Every summer, movie studios pour millions of dollars into advertising budgets to promote theatrical releases of their biggest films.  These films are called Summer Blockbusters.  Just about every year we see tie-in games that closely follow the movie's story or borrow liberally from the movie's universe.  For the most part these tie-in titles are low budget, mediocre games that rarely excel to greatness.

With summer blockbuster movies, for better or worse, come the movie tie-in games. In the case of G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra, we're happy to see Co-op, but very curious to know exactly how the game itself works. Kotaku got the chance to play the game at E3 using co-op, and we have their impression to share.

This summer is filled with plenty of blockbuster movies based on popular TV Franchises.  Star Trek, Transformers 2, and GI Joe all will adorn the silver screen.  Of course with any great blockbuster comes the video game tie in, and G.I. Joe The Rise of Cobra is no exception.

There's still not much information in the way of the upcoming GI Joe games from EA.  We know they'll have some local co-op action, so you and a friend can argue exactly who gets to be Snake Eyes.  Other than that, we know it's based on the upcoming live action movie of the same name.

There's a live action G.I. Joe movie coming out this summer, one that's only about 20 years overdue.  With any summer blockbuster comes the inevitible video game tie-in, and the Joe movie is no exception.  As we previously reported, the game is being developed by EA, and will be available on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, PS2, etc etc.  You know, the usual platform bombardment.
