Toy Story 2

Note that this is a review of the PlayStation Version.

Toy Story 2 was the first real video game that I played on my old Windows '98 and therefore will always have a place in my heart.

Today some unknown fate made me pop my PlayStation version of this game into my PS3 and it still has the same effect on my that it had eleven years ago.

Lets talk about the actual game now. The game starts as Al is stealing Woody and you take control of Buzz to go rescue him. While doing so you encounter obstacles through the various interesting stages. Starting out in Andy's House and going through his Yard, a construction site, an alley, Al's Toy Barn, Al's space barn, the ventilation system at Al's building, Al's suite, inside the Airport and ending at the outside of the Airport.

The controls were simple and easy to get used to. The X button jumps, the square button fires lasers, the circle button does a spinning attack, the L1 button aim's and R1 lets you check your stats.

A problem I had with the game was that you couldn't use the joystick, and this was a game released in 1999, well it could have just been the fact that I was playing on a PS3 but it still got annoying.

The graphics weren't anything special at the time, it was basically like every PS1 game released around that time. The music was fantastic though, it really fit the areas that each track was placed in and every area had a unique track.

To sum up, I love this game. It was amazing when I was only five years old and eleven years later, it still is.

9.8/10

Toy Story 2 not only had an incredible movie made in its name, but the game released alongside it was damn good too. Sure the graphics are blocky as heck but that's part of the gorgeous charm to games from that point in time during the 1990s.

This game is your standard Mario/Banjo-Kazooie/Rayman/Donkey Kong collect-a-thon games where you get tokens or power-ups that help you progress in the game. It's standard stuff yet the Toy Story settings and characters give it a nice polish and their own quirks add to the game's fun factor too.

And to think Traveller's Tales would go on to become a gaming titan with the likes of this, Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex and the onslaught of LEGO Games (Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Batman, MARVEL, JRR Tolkien's Legendarium, etc). It shows that art and form are always being refined whenever dedicated companies stick to their guns long enough.

Toy Story 2 is a solid game companion for a solid movie. Even over twenty years on that's still very much the case.

The gameplay is great, the soundtrack is great, the level design is amazing. As you are a toy, you have to traverse the levels in unique ways. Buzz also looks like a potato.

Loved this game.played it in childhood, and was addicted to it. Still miss this game

I used to play it all the time as it came out but I had no theory on it seeing that I was only about 8 when it came out. I played it the other day and I enjoyed it. I never finished the game completely, I only got up to the Second Last level and I am one token left for the last level.

The background are good, the graphics are good but no way near as good as the Movie, and the gameplay is Surprisingly fun! I am 13 years old and i am not normally into kids sort of games, I basically only play Racing games, Sports or Gun games like Max Payne or GTA series.

Each level has 5 tokens to collect, you have to collect a certain amount of tokens to pass on to the next level and Save Woody! Great Game.
