This game is good. It is like most Army men games, but not as bad as the gameboy color army men.

DO NOT BUY

This game is the first game I bought for my new GBA. I sold after 3 days. The game gets very boring very quick. Everything is repetitive. Basically you: Kill, Kill, Kill, do some stupid puzzle, and Kill. Not very fun. The graphics are horrible for the GBA. They are cartoonish and stupid. I do NOT recommend this game.

this game is lame

this game is the lamest game of all. Save your money and try to buy the other army men game when it comes out. I bet it will be a lot better than this one. I would of givin this game a 0 of stars but thats the lowest is one. The levels are so easy and the graphics are not that good. The sound is pretty good but not great.

If only they would've at least tried to make it interesting

Army Men Advance tries to capture the feeling of playing with those green Army guys you can buy by the bag for $1.50, but fails miserably.

The game starts with your choice of either the Sarge or Vikki, though there is no visible difference between the two. You are given a list of mission objectives. To complete each level, you must obtain all of the given objectives. Objectives range from finding keys to free POWs to sabotaging enemy facilities. Of course the objectives grow increasingly difficult as your progress.

The game's overhead view bares a strong resemblance to the 1992 release of Demolition Man on SEGA CD. You use the D-pad to maneuver in the corresponding direction. With unlimited ammo at your disposal, all you need to do is stand diagonally at an angle to your opponent and fire. The AI is terrible at recognizing this strategy and will continue to fire in one of the basic four directions. It is very rare that you will find an enemy actually firing diagonal.

From a visual stance, it appears as if there was little attention to detail. In the character select screen, Vikki has this green haired Malibu Barbie appearance. In the game, she looks like a peach humanoid with a green ponytail carrying a black block. Sarge keeps his full green motif, but looks just like all the enemies, except he is green. The floor remains a monotonous gray, and there is a definite black seem between the characters and the backgrounds. I know you may think I am being harsh on the graphics, but when compared to other games out there, this is just not acceptable.

This is another classic example of a game that should never have been made. If you want the feeling of playing with Army Men, go to your local store and spend $5 on a few bags. The fun will last you longer than this game. 3DO should have either passed this project up or given it more quality. I do not recommend this game, however for those who are still curious, rent it first.

Hellloooooo!?!?!?!?

.... It is about average compaired to an original GAME BOY game, but not as good as any GBA games. If you want a good game, get Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2, or Bomberman Advanced, or Krazy racer, but not this. This game should be taken of the shelves ..., but not played. Pleeze do not buy this game, it is a sad excuse for modern technology.

Good back in '01....now, skip it!

At first glance the game looks as though its fun and will give you hours of fun. Think again before buying this game. there is no in-game saving which means you have to use a password to get to the level you were last on. Save your money and buy castlevania .to sum this game into two words: IT [ISN'T VERY GOOD]!

This game is wasting your time and money! It might seem cool, but is very repetitive. It lacks true a gaming expreience, such as graphics and a good story line, and the pace is also slow.I gave it a 3 because it's simple and somewhat fun. If you like Army Men, go buy a N64 and those Army Men games, or waste your time.

Oh please...

This game is so easy its not even funny. I played it at a Circuit City and beat half the game in 20 minutes! If you want a good game buy Super Mario Advance or Tony Hawk.

PATHETIC!!!!

This game is a pathetic waste of money. It doesn't at all use the full power of the GBA at all........Personally, I got my game boy only yesterday, but I already have or have played 14 games......and this one was the worst.......Save your money on the release of Grand Theft Auto.....
