You wouldnt think having battles with toys could be so much fun !!!
Well i recently purchased a dreamcast and loads of classic games for around £50 and im glad i did the Dreamcast was a great system and im still hoping Sega stops ripping apart Sonic long enough to make a dreamcast 2.
Story:
Each boss in the game would be the leader of a specific area of the house, serving as one of Huggy Bear's generals. These boss toys would join your side as playable in the final battle if beaten. It is possible to reach the final area without beating a single boss, however, the level will automatically fail when started if you do not have at least one boss on your side.
After Huggy Bear is beaten, he will return to Andy's side. The player will have a simple mission in which they must pilot an airplane to pick up toy passengers in a hangar. The final scene will show an adult Andy, fittingly an airplane pilot, being woken up by a stewardess, implying that the game was truly a dream.
To be fair the story isnt all that great, however this is a kind of sandbox game that should be played with around 4 people to get the most fun out of it.
Gameplay:
In the game, you must complete missions by controlling toys usually in the form of vehicles. These missions take place in rooms of a house. A battle mode is available in the game for up to four players. The game was known for its unique tasks themed around the household areas it took place in. For instance, the first mission, which took place in the kitchen, involved using a toy car to roll eggs over to a pot of boiling water.
The game had five basic types of playable vehicles: Race cars, which were primarily used in racing missions (though some missions would have the player navigating mazes in race cars), armed ground vehicles such as tanks or trucks with rocket launchers, airplanes, helicopters, and transport vehicles (which were always unarmed, but would typically be used to transport green army men across the stage to defend the truck; in some missions transport vehicles would be used to rescue hostages).
The bosses, as mentioned, would join your side and help fight Huggy Bear in the end if you beat them. However, they could only be challenged if you cleared all the missions in their respective rooms of the house in a certain time. If all missions in the game (save for the bosses and the final mission after beating Huggy Bear) are cleared under a the allotted time, a secret level in which you control a snail in the backyard of the house is unlocked. Beating this would give the player unlimited battery missiles.
Controlling little toy cars or aircrafts with great weapons is amazingly fun and should not be over looked.
Multi-player:
The multiplayer is where this game really shines becuase is great fun basically, if you've had a hard day at work or at school or even if you have friends over pop this game in grap your controller and prepare to have gigantic battles all over a fully 3D house with a vast amount of weapond ranging from bombs to glue sticks.
Overall this game is a great experience and as its only around £5 - $10 its a bargain and should be tried out.
The good:
Amazingly fun in multiplayer
Graphics are pretty well developed for a 1999 game
Vast amounts of vieichles and aircrafts to try out
The Bad:
Single player isnt quite as fun
The Ugly:
If you enjoy playing it you wont want to stop XD
