Really neat more or less.
I bought this game because I have Army Men 2 and 3, and suddenly wanted to collect like every Army Men game. I got all the "World War" ones, anyway, but also got this PC game.
The game is pretty fun, though the multiplayer needed respawns for soldiers and the single player needed to give the player more teammates. In the second and third games, the player always has lots and lots of soldiers, so I kind of assumed the first game would also have lots of soldiers for the player, but for some reason he's alone a lot. It's also annoying how the player can't get AI to drive vehicles, like if the player has two tanks in multiplayer, he must drive one and can't tell his soldiers to drive the other, so his second tank just sits there being useless.
They just didn't do much to make it feel really epic, like the player was in an actual army. 3DO NEVER did that in ANY Army Men game. Only small parts of some Army Men games would have epic battles. "Epic" could be as simple as giving the player three teammates who charge forward and help the player fight. 3DO prefers to make the player alone more often than not, which is just stupid.
A REALLY weird thing about Army Men 1 is that there are no "giant" levels. Everything is normal-sized, as if the Army Men were real people. This makes it seem like Army Men might've been designed at first to be some kind of generic-themed action game and the Army Men thing was kind of last-minute.
Army Men 2 added in the giant levels (starting off in a kitchen) because Army Men 1 ends with an inter-dimensional portal. The whole thing is weird and sadly this whole portal thing remains throughout most of the Army Men games so most of them have normal-sized forests and crap, like anyone wants to play that in an Army Men game.
I'd also like to have an army in an Army Men game!Read full review...
Army Men
While compared to today's graphics this game would be lacking. But for the fact of this game having been made in 1998 the graphics are, well, GREAT. The campaign mode is pretty intense. Although the multiplayer sounds interesting, i was unable to find any other players due to the age of the game.Read full review...
