Since it’s creation, Playstation Home has been virtually nothing more than a world in which advertisements run rampant. And, with the impending release of G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, the deal is the same.

What you see above is the movie’s presence in Playstation Home where you will be able to view media regarding said movie. Additionally, once this promotion goes live, you will be able to pick up a bunch of free avatar skins at the Playstation Home Threads Store.

G.I. Joe Game Announced

Not really surprising anyone, EA today announced that they are working on a movie-tie-in game for the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra live-action film, which is due out this August.

Set for release around the same time that the film hits theaters, the game is in development for PS3, PSP, PS2, Wii, Xbox 360 and DS. It will “feature an exclusive storyline that picks up where the live-action movie leaves off, allowing players to recreate and relive the greatest moments from the film, cartoon series and action figure toy line,” according to EA.

Players will be able to choose from 12 characters and go through the game with a friend thanks to cooperative modes. Vehicles can also be hijacked, among other things.
