One of The Best Best Movie Tie-In Game for the PSP
I'm suprised that there's only one review for this game. I know that movie-based games have a bad rep, but this one is actually pretty good, even better than Iron Man and Alien vs Predator Requiem. I grew up watching the cartoon and getting the game was a no-brainer, although I pased on the movie for personal reasons. GIJoe RotC is a fast paced shooter, with tons of unlockables. There's no slow-down, and the graphics are pretty cool. There were few instances of clipping, but that didn't hamper the gameplay at all. The only flaw to the game would be the camera. It's horrible and at times can be the cause of you dying (not being able to see whos shooting at you due to the camera angle). But since this game isn't the first to have that flaw and since it definitely won't be the last, don't hold that against the developers. If you're a fan, or just want a fun shooter that'll hold you over til SOCOM Fireteam Bravo 3 comes out in November, go ahead and pick this up. You'll be glad you did.

Better graphics and movement than most PSP shooters
I really enjoyed this PSP game as it seemed to be a lot smoother gameplay than most PSP shooter type games and the graphics were a pleasant improvement as well. The only problem I have with the game is that it was over too quickly, which can be a good thing I suppose.

Overall, a great addition to anyones PSP collection.
