Editorial Reviews :
Film favorites Buzz Lightyear and Woody are back in action with their latest video game offering, Disney/Pixar's Toy Story 2. The cowboy Woody is in trouble in a game that closely follows the plot of the hit computer-animated flick. Although the game is obviously aimed at luring fans of the movie of the same name, it does contain gameplay that will appeal to a wider audience. Toy Story 2 is not a perfect game, but it captures the playability and humor of the film, and also has movie-quality animations and graphics.
Woody finds himself kidnapped by Al, the evil toy collector, and it's up to Buzz to save the day--with a little help from the other toys in owner Andy's room. Buzz must venture outside Andy's house and into the local neighborhood. Game environments include a perilous construction area, a toy barn, and a sky-rise apartment. Ultimately, Buzz will confront his arch nemesis, the Evil Emperor Zurg--but getting there is half the fun.
During his journey, Buzz must collect missing parts for Mr. Potato Head. He also calls on his buddies Rex, Slinky Dog, and Hamm the piggy bank for helpful tips and directions. Controls are varied but can be confusing to master. Buzz can climb, do a 'super foot stomp,' fire his laser, and perform a Space Ranger spin attack to help him get through the various levels.
All in all, though, this game's battle cry should be, 'To mediocrity... and not much further.'
Buyer Reviews :
My husband said he bought this for our 3 year old son...yeah right! I play it more than anybody, and it is a blast. The game is based on the Toy Story 2 storyline of Woody's being toynapped by Al. Buzz is our hero, advancing from one level to the next in search of Woody. Along the way, he destroys Zurg's henchmen, collects Pizza Planet tokens, and locates Mr. Potato Head's missing parts. This game presents challenges that even adults will find difficult to complete, which makes it great for the whole family to enjoy. The only downside to using a computer vs. video game is having to remember which keys on the keyboard correspond to what tool (i.e. firing Buzz's laser, jumping, spinning, etc.). I suggest investing in a joystick for your computer- it's easier, and if truth be told, a lot more fun.
