Yes, that’s right, folks! We have an online G.I. Joe game to play.
Just on a whim, I hit up the SyFy.com G.I. Joe: Special Ops site this morning and clicked “Play Beta” and guess what?

The game started, that’s what! It loaded up through Facebook, so I’m not sure if the non-Facebook version is available yet or not, but it looks like at least for Facebook users, you can try out the Beta of G.I. Joe: Special Ops RIGHT NOW.
Keep in mind, a Beta version of the game will potentially have some technical glitches, so don’t think this is the finished version. Go out there and kick the tires, though.
Stop reading, and hit it up!

Did you ever want to go back in time? Back to the simpler times… back to the times before we found out G.I. Joe: Retaliation was delayed for nine months?
Now you can! Hot on the heels of the biggest G.I. Joe story in years, we give you Episode 56 of What’s on Joe Mind where we discuss none of it! In our defense, we have valid reasons for that, considering we recorded it before the news hit. Regardless, there were still plenty of great things to discuss this episode, as we bring on Gary “Gyre-Viper” Head from the JoeDeclassified SpecOps Podcast to talk a little bit about the JoeDeClassified project and what convention attendees might expect to see at the booth.
Arune Singh from Marvel Comics joins us as well as we continue our pushed towards JoeCon and G.I. Joe: Retaliation… err… crap. As always, hit up our Podbean Page, or just check out the embedded player below. Show Notes as usual are after the jump.

I’ve heard some folks ask out loud that if G.I. Joe: Retaliation was being pushed back until next March, what did that mean for the G.I. Joe: Special Ops game that has been announced to launch in June?
Apparently things are still on track over at SyFy.com as they have just posted another update, this time featuring legendary G.I. Joe and Cobra stalwarts Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow! Once again, fans of G.I. Joe: The Pursuit of Cobra will be thrilled as this version of Snake Eyes looks to be ripped right from the store pegs and Storm Shadow is chock full of classicy goodness as well.
Check out the latest images below, and keep watching SyFy.com for the latest intel.

Quickly becoming one of my favorite things to check up on, the G.I. Joe: Special Ops online game has added two more familiar faces to the roster today with Lady Jaye and the Cobra Viper. Taking elements from various continuities, G.I. Joe: Special Ops seems like it’s trying to sample the best from everything. Lady Jaye wears a tactical vest and is an established hard ass, yet she totes around javelins, and wears her hair long sort of like Adrianne Palicki.
The Cobra Viper looks a lot like the Viper we all know and love, but with a distinctly Sideshow Collectibles twist. Thjey seem to be bringing a lot of very cool elements together. Now we just have to see how the game plays! Check out the SyFy G.I. Joe: Special Ops website, and also check out the mirrored images below.

Woooah, buddy! Just doing some random checking today, and what do I see? The SyFy website for the upcoming G.I. Joe: Special Ops online game has updated with some incredibly cool new character art!
Some big names have been added to the rosters including Cobra Commander, Serpentor, Scarlett, and Sci-Fi! I love that we’re getting a decidedly IDW flavor for both Cobra Commander and Serpentor, with Sci-Fi obviously having his very cool 30th Anniversary elements included. Great, great looking stuff.
Check out the ever growing Special Ops gallery below for all of the great character art to date, including today’s additions! I’m getting very fired up for this game to hit.

As if G.I. Joe: Retaliation wasn’t enough, we’ve got the upcoming social media G.I. Joe: Special Ops online game that is looking more out of this world with every reveal! Today we’re introduced to the Special Ops version of Roadblock, Lifeline, Buzzer, Dr. Mindbender, the Cobra Stun and G.I. Joe: Wolverine, and things are looking awesome. Very much a vintage aesthetic, with some neat 30th Anniversary twists.
Lifeline is clearly based on the way the 30th Anniversary figure looks, with those unique differences from the classic version. Roadblock, on the other hand, is looking like his old school Tiger Force version. Pretty awesome.
Check out the latest details at the Special Ops website on SyFy.com, and I’ve mirrored some nice images below. I mean, doesn’t it seem like we’ve been waiting for some kind of game like this forever? When have we gotten such character and vehicle-accurate renders for any kind of video game? I’m getting pretty excited to check this out, just in case you couldn’t tell. I’ve mirrored darn near every image we’ve seen so far, check out the most recent ones on the end.
