Marred by a dodgy interface, "Toy Story 2" nonetheless knows how to flex its might like a championship weightlifter.

It's fine if you're buying it for your kids to play (which really is the purpose of "Toy Story 2"), but Activision could have done a lot to make this better for us older folk.

I hate to be brutal about it, and many younger gamers may even like this game, but I had expected a more polished product, and what I got seemed raw or half-baked.

Gran plataformeo, por momentos desafiante, dificil pero esto no representa algo malo, es mas bien un desafio divertido, y en lo frustrante tambien esta lo divertido. Gran variedad de mapas, de mecanicas dentro de ellos, de enemigos y todos distintos entre si. Ademas buena variedad de Bosses, pese a que algunos de ellos sean muy faciles, y los dificiles sean solamente 4. Pero pese a estos puntos positivos, el juego no inventa la rueda ya que salio en 1999, y crash bandicoot 3 ya habia salido en 1998 y mario 64 en el 1996, las referencias/inspiraciones/copia son notorias, pero no son malas. Ademas el juego presenta un claro problema con su camara, aunque es entendible por ser de play 1, mas no justificable. Aun asi, la nota es un 81/100

PS & DC looks potato to me N64 looks okay, GBC is really good in my opinion.

Sorry, but if there's multiple of games being released on multiple of consoles in the year of 2000, one of them had to include Toy Story 2 for the Dreamcast. It had all the chances it could get to be a huge improvement of the PlayStation version, but just completely failed at that big time like the Nintendo 64 version. At least you got one Toy Story game on the Dreamcast, right?

A fantastic game (with) regrettably frustrating, enjoyment killing problems.

Repetitive voice samples from the film, control flaws, and poor floating-camera angles make many levels frustrating.

Little kids might be willing to look past the unoriginality and outdated gameplay.

Leave it on the shelf. Activision missed the mark with this one.

In a game so reliant on running in straight lines and jumping from one ledge to another, maddeningly loose control is unforgivable.
30
Control in this game (using the term game loosely since it suggests fun) is akin to peeling "hair" off of a wet bar of soap - it's slippery work, and almost as difficult to do as it is to figure out why you're doing it in the first place.

I must say this review it more towards the PC version (which is impossible to review!), but I did play both PC and DC versions and the two are mostly identical. This is another one of those games which probably no one cares about or will ever care unless they're a dye-hard fans of DisneyPixarToy Story franchise (The latter is true for me). And I guess there's not much reason to care about this one, it's definitely not a masterpiece and the movie which it's based on is far more popular, plus it's aimed mainly at children. And that's simply what it is. If there are still some children out there which get to watch Toy Story this game could be nice for them. It's not 100% polished, but it's a light action-platformer, it's a lot easier and forgiving (Thank god!) than the previous installment, it has nice lively soundtrack which fit the game, nice levels... It's simply alright. And old.
SummaryAs space hero Buzz Lightyear, you've got your hands full. Your best buddy, Woody, has been kidnapped by a greedy toy collector and it's going to be an all-out race against time to save him.
