Title: GI Joe sim
Post by: FLOOB on April 06, 2014, 07:55:42 PM
Won't somebody please make a GI Joe sim. I was looking at 80s gi joe toys online and was thinking man that would be fun in Aces High. But really there's more than enough GI Joe planes, tanks, vehicles, boats, subs, helicopters to make an online multiplayer game. I think it would be a blast.

Because Russian programmers.

"GI Joe" not selling.

"Spesnatz Alexei" is good selling, but images of beating up Ukrainians and Chechens. Not good selling in U.S.

Damn Russian programmers...

This needs to be done, with an attempt to make it quasi-realistic, just for the laughs.

HTC could do it if they could get the copyright and hire some people. If someone other than HTC does it it's going to be crap.

Had many of the original GI Joe's. My Dad's friend was a navy parachute rigger and he made mine custom parachutes. I was the envy of the neighborhood.  :banana:

What fun would a GI Joe sim be?

You never actually kill anybody and you don't die..

At least, not the TV show we had a few good drinking games to, ... or was that Thundercats?.   ..

Yep. Cobra soldiers can't hit the broad side of a barn.

Me and my kid brother had a ton of G.I. Joe's when we were kids. I'm talking the original 12" action figures with the moveable appendages and the doink-doink hair. We had all the gadgets, space capsule, jeep, six-wheel jobber and all the adventure Team accessories. I even had the talking G.I. Joe but I gave it away because he was a real wise ass.

Yet are they not suppose to be THE most dangerous group?  I did find that funny they couldn't hit the ground with their helmets in 3 tries. :lol

I think I had them all. They were #1 on my gift/Xmas list all the time. I also had about every toy gun ever made back in the early '60s. Boy I wish I had them all now in the original boxes. My favorite (http://i478.photobucket.com/albums/rr149/Rich46yo/refAdMJoEagMagumbaBxdSmall_zps129d83cf.jpg)

Yeah. Even if they used the broad side of another barn.  :aok


PS. I still have the Mobat, the Mauler, the Wolverine, the Rattler, the Hiss and the Dragonfly all in their original boxes with action figures and all the pieces intact. My parents boxed them up in 1989 when I joined the real fight at age 17. Semper Fi!
