Army Men 3D

"One of the best Amry Men games"

Army men 3D

STORY
Same as all the other army men games, there is a war going on between the 2 army men teams, the Green and the Tan. You play Sarge for the green team fighting against the evil tan. You must fight your way through all the tan forces to get 3 special keys to open up the portal. The getting to the portal part does actually make the story interesting.

GAMEPLAY
Actually, gameplay is excellent, easy to control your character and move as well. The camera angle is positioned great. Basic movements are easy to do and don't take long to react, look very real the way he does everything, but you can't jump, but my favourite aspect is the ducking and rolling, that gives it alot more action and thrill into the game. The game is fun to play, and probably the best in the Army Men series from my point. A must buy if you like the army men series.

GRAPHICS
Great, very great for a game released a while ago, has captured all the features from the desert, but the last missions in the whole game seem a bit blurry and hard to see. But back to the desert, it just looks so real. All the first mission has great graphics, the second has worse, but not by much. The third I think has the worst graphics, except for the last 2 levels, they are probably the best in the game. There is only two FMW sequences, that is the starting movie and the ending movie.

SOUNDS
In the missions, they sound excellent, espicially the first where the desert sounds like it is deserted because of the sound. The sound effects are what you would hear for any game, the bullets sound normal, the jeeps sound is very real and the same with the tanks. Same with all the guns, the bazooka noise sounds very good, the flame sounds very real and the Automatic rifle does sound like a proper machine gun. But I am going to take points off because Sarge never speaks, I don't know why they wanted to not hear his voice.

REPLAYABILITY
Once you finish it, yes, you will want to play it again because of the good ending. They used the 'can't prove that you finished it' method in this game. This means that if you save on the last level (Before it, of course), and then once you finish the game, it wont let you save your game, so when you load your game again, you will be on the last level again, I hate games like that.
