The graphics and story are
not great either, which
just adds to the disap

Remember how fun it was to play
with those little green army men as
kids? Remember how- cool it was to
see these tiny G.I.'s reappear in pop
culture after the release of the Toy Sto
ry movies?
People could once again escape to
a time where all battles could be re
solved by melting the enemy soldiers
With a giant magnifying glass.
Unfortunately, this latest install
ment in the Army Men video game se
ries doesn’t play on the “toy” aspect
of these vertically challenged soldiers,
creating a frustrating and lack luster
video game.
After playing Army Men: World
War, one might wonder why the de
velopers even made this game about
army men at all. Aside from losing
chunks of plastic when players get hit,
everything looks and plays like a real
life war game.
The minuscule commandos do not
even have the plastic platform that
connects their feel which, much to the
disappointment of any Army Men fan,
allows them to walk around normally.
When the game designers were not
busy destroying people’s childhood
memories, they filled their time creat
ing awkward game play.
This is the most annoying aspect of
Army Men because the camera angles
and controls of the soldiers are just
plain bad.
The game tends to drastically
switch camera angles anytime players
pivot, and characters get caught on the
Forget bloodthirsty demons and
slimy space aliens. It is time to fight
real enemies that everybody loves to
hate: Nazis.
Medal of Honor is a first person
shooter that lets the player assume the
role of a soldier behind enemy lines in
World War II.

person shooters out there, bul Medal
