We've been waiting for a platform game to come along and reinvigorate the genre for ages and, not surprisingly, Toy Story 2 didn't exactly set our world alight.Īs Buzz Lightyear you have to find or earn Pizza Planet tokens (sound like stars in Mario 64?) and the more tokens you get, the more zones that you can access.

New characters from the latest film also crop up, along with numerous video clips, which could prove something of a spoiler if you've not seen it. The action features appearances from much of the cast, including Rex the cowardly dinosaur, Hamm the piggy bank, Slinky Dog and Mr & Mrs Potato Head. The story only tenuously follows that of the film, as watching a toy spaceman constantly miss a ledge by inches clearly wouldn't make for much of a movie. However, unlike the Buzz of the movies, the game character has even greater powers, notably the ability to fire his laser, perform a fancy spin, and even fly for a couple of seconds.

As for the game, it's a competent platformer in which you assume the role of square-jawed Space Ranger, Buzz Lightyear, one of the leading characters of the films, and patron of the (technically impossible) catchphrase, 'To infinity and beyond!'.
