You’d think there’d be more good Rambo games out there. I mean, the movies are nothing but John Rambo sneakily stabbing people in the neck and recklessly running around double-wielding machine guns. In other words, the Rambo flicks are basically the blueprint for every popular video game series today, and yet the last actual Rambo game I played was some godforsaken piece of crap on the NES.
But hey, somebody’s giving it another try! Rambo: The Video Game will be, surprise surprise, a stealth-shooter in which you play out scenes from the first three Rambo movies. Hit the jump for a trailer…
Well, uh, Rambo’s mullet/afro (muffro?) is certainly impressive! The rest of the game, I’m not so sure.

This looks worse than the Predator game I had on my Commodore 64.
Jeez, you had a pretty powerful Commodore 64.
Looks great, when’s it coming out, Fall 2006?
I’m really looking forward to the scenes from Rambo III.
You know, where we fight alongside Al Queda.
Maybe he could team up with Timothy Dalton from “The Living Daylights”.
Chloryl…hydrate…
The only real question remaining is…….do we get to play goat ball on horses with the mujahideen? If so, I will pre-order it now.
There actually is a superfun Rambo arcade shooter. (Steven A Smith voice) HOWEVAH…this looks like a bargain bin title for PS2.
I’ve played that, the shooter is wicked fun, I’d put it right up there with the recent(ish) Terminator Salvation one.
This however looks like a turd on a stick. Those explosion animations are hilarious.
YOU DREW FIRST BLOOD! Seriously, it looks like you drew it in MS paint. This will be awful.
Also, spot on timing for a Rambo game.
The developer of the game has mostly worked on Wii and 3DS downloadable games in the past, so yeeeeeah, probably.
It reminds me of that shitty Walking Dead game
“Rambo: The Video Game. When you’re pushed killing’s as easy as breathi–” What’s that? We didn’t do any breathing animation?
“Rambo: The Video Game. The game single dads will buy for their estranged, obese sons in a distant attempt to connect their two interests.”
The best part about it is they used mo-cap technology on Stallone while he was filming a completely different movie and he didn’t even know they were doing it. He just thought they were fans and wanted to see his Rambo impressions.
Was it while he was filming Demolition Man?
This should have a UHF mode dlc.
Well, Rambo sure is shiny.
To be fair, Stallone was covered in baby oil for approximately 90% of the 80s.
It looks like they took the old Turok game and subbed Rambo in the cut scenes…
Honestly, this trailer pisses me off a little bit. The first Rambo movie is actually surprisingly good in many ways; it takes Rambo’s emotional problems seriously and carefully makes it clear he’s only doing what he’s doing because the police keep raising the stakes.
