This is a very good game. The graphics aren't the best ever, but they're still very good. This game is like Tomb Raider, but I like it more because it is more of a strategy game than Tomb Raider. THIS GAME IS THE BEST!
The most under rated game ever!

I played a demo of Portal Runner in a video game magazine and I plan to buy it.The graphics are ok,sound is ok,controls are ok but gameplay is suprisingly good.You can use your bow like a scope and zoom in for targeting.Jumping is ok but sometimes awkward.Moving around is good.Music is decent but will get on your nerves.Graphics are ok but I have seen better on the PS1.Some platforms and areas just suddenly appear out of thin air.This is my favorite army men game ever made.The story,videos and some other things are ok but great gameplay make up for it.This game deserves to be mentioned as one of the top PS2 games.
Fun Game - 5

I think this is a great game. It is really colorful and it's really fun. In the beginning of the game you find a lion and end up keeping it as a pet and riding him around. The game is really easy in the beginning. The only level I have trouble beating is the last one. But anyway... the plot of the story is that you are a toy and you are going forward and backward in time trying to catch the villian. You have to fight most of the things that you come in contact with. To kill them u shoot them with arrows, and tell Leo (the lion) to attack. Through out the game there are other objectives (besides getting the villian). It's a fun game.
A must own

This game is so fun! It has a sad ending but it is still good. My favorite character is Leo the lion. This game is good for all 3DO fans, Army Men fans and videogame fans. I recomend it.
Fun and funny

If you like platformer games, this is a fun one, and not too difficult. The graphics are very good and the controls are simple. I like that it's got different stages you go through, first as just the girl, then with the lion, then riding the lion. There are some puzzles to figure out and hidden things to hunt for if you want to, which makes the game last longer, but is not a requirement for continuing. The only annoying, nay, downright aggrevating thing, is that you can only save one game. So my daughter and I have to share it instead of playing each our own game. Bad move on someone's part.
Uh this game sucks........

This game is fun? Excuse me? I must have played a different game. We are talking about the portal runner that was on the PS Underground demo disc among others? ... This game is garbage, quite bluntly.... The control is some of the worst I've ever experienced, it is slow and unrepsonsive to the utmost degree. The voice acting is some of the worst I've ever heard. The level design is terrible on the demo, which I whole-heartidly assume it is for the rest of the game as well. Why would developer release a demo of a game that wasnt indictive to the final quality? Exactly. Trust me. Any educated gamer who knows their Marios from their Solid Snakes will instantly realize this game is not even worth renting. Among the PS2's best games? I would say among the worst PS2 games, out thus far.. Everything about this game is a pale clone of other games, with little to no originality or inspiration. This game is simply not fun, take my word, or better yet, play the demo for yourself. Do not rent this game, I expect nothing but absolute mediocrity from this title. I'm sorry to put down a game this badly, but it really does deserve it in my opinion. Save your hard-earned money for a game that is worth it. Metal Gear Solid 2 is right around the corner..among others. So, to summarize this lengthy review.. Do not buy this game!

(...) This game is corny, dumb, terrible and a disgrace to PS2. Quit buying it. It has a few pleasent scenery, but the controls are bad, the camera is bad, you control a (...), with a lion named Leo. Big whoop. Buy Metal Gear Solid 2 or Gran Turismo 3 or Devil May Cry or Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. Portal Runner? More like Portal Limper.
Ummmmm... its OK

well, its a boring game. i played it only once at my 8 year old cousin's house( im 11),but hey, u may like it. The graphics are good, and levels are fun to explore, but the mission modes are mad boring ! I DIDNT GET THE MISSION MODES AT ALL, i played it for like 3 min. anyway, if ur bored w/ a friend, explore levels in this game. its pretty cheap and it gives u something to do on a rainy day.
