IGN: Army Men: Soldiers of Misfortune Review

IGN writes: "Usually, I save my summation of a game for my review’s Closing Comments. Today, I will forgo that longstanding IGN tradition — Army Men: Soldiers of Misfortune sucks. It doesn’t deserve your time, money, or attention.

To summarize: do not buy this game.

With installment after installment of Army Men games behind it, Soldiers of Misfortune bucks tradition and casts you as Timmy, a normal boy. Seems Timmy’s toy army men have a mind of their own, and a war has broken out in the boy’s house. Timmy shrinks to the size of his plastic figures, aligns himself with the green squadron, grabs his NERF-dart gun, and goes to war with the tannies. This battle is spread across several chapters that each come with five missions. All of them suck. You need to wander around and find a certain number of supply crates, you need to wander around and free your captured green allies, and so on.’"
