Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
The war rages on! This sequel to the miniaturized war game Army Men sets new objectives and positions to gain: you'll meet the tan plastic enemy in the yard, in the garage, in the kitchen, and in the toy room. The only thing you have to fear is fear itself (and maybe household heat sources that will melt your troops into green puddles). All of the classic soldiers are here with their familiar weapons in tow, including rifles, grenades, flamethrowers, and more. In addition to the 20 solo-play missions, two players can use the separately sold Game Link cable to connect their copies of the game for head-to-head play.

Product Description
All of the wild action of the original ARMY MEN has returned in an all-new Game Boy Color adventure! In this overhead shooter, youll control Sarge, leader of the Green Army, as he battles against the Tan Army in a bizarre new real world. Stalk through giant-sized kitchens, skulk through the toy room, and practice some true guerilla warfare in the backyard. With two different campaigns offering more than 40 missions, ARMY MEN 2 offers a lot of shoot-em-up action. Use a variety of weapons like the flamethrower, grenades, and bazooka to mow down the enemy, or take advantage of some of the alternative forms of transportation by hopping into a tank or jeep. Also new in the sequel is the two-player link cable game, which allows you to challenge an opponent in either Deathmatch or Capture-The-Flag modes.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Real combat. Plastic men." comes back in a big way!, November 30, 2000

By	Matt (age 15) (WV United States) - See all my reviews

My first thoughts, when I saw that 3DO was coming out with Army Men 2 GBC, were "this game's gonna be great", and I was right.

GRAPHICS 10/10 Excellent - The backgrounds are nicely textured, cut scenes beautifully done, the explosions from grenades, mortars and the flash from the flamethrowers are great and Sarge himself never looked better. The change of scenery is nice as well. Instead of the whole thing being outside, you fight in a garden, on countertops and in a kids bedroom.

SOUND 10/10 Better than excellent - Sarge really speaks to you and so does your commander. You have music instead of that "get on your nerves" drum that's in the first one. The gunfire and explosion sounds are awesome.

CONTROLS 9/10 A little difficult at first, but you get used to them fast.

GAMEPLAY 9/10 Mostly the same objectives: wipe the Tan Army off the face of the earth, but that's not so bad. The only complaint I have is that you should have been able to carry more weapons but this really isn't of any consequence. It also has two player deathmatch and capture the flag mode.

A Kid's Review

Army men 2 is a great game. This will not be a waste of money. The graphics are great. Some of the levels are hard and some of them are easy. You will love this game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the first, August 9, 2001

By	"big_mack" (Hicksville, NY United States) - See all my reviews

This game is great. You have a much greater selection in weapons (rifle, autorifle, grenades, bazooka, flamethrower, and mortars). You also have vehicles, like a jeep and a tank, and, well, running down your enemies alone with those is well worth the money.

Army Men 2 takes a while to complete, though. It is great for those long, boring car trips. I reccomend this to anyone who is bored out of their minds in the car.
