Editorial Review: Little green plastic army men: perhaps one of the all-time classic toys. Who hasn't spent hours of their childhood enacting epic sandbox battles with these little guys? With their Army Men series, 3DO has let gamers see the world from the army men's two-inch-tall perspective.
Your mission is to rescue the members of Sarge's squad from the evil "tan army guys" army. A series of progressively more difficult missions teaches the player to become proficient in using traditional army man weapons, including the M-16, sniper rifle, mortar, hand grenade, and bazooka. Unlike many multiweapon games, Army Men: Sarge's Heroes offers choices of firepower that aren't gratuitous. Each weapon has specific advantages and all of them are needed to complete the missions. It's a little detail, but one of the coolest features of this game is that your onscreen hero assumes all the classic army men poses when using the weapons: the machine gunner, the hand grenade thrower, the standing marksman, even the classic "crawling guy" are faithfully represented.
So how are the missions? In a word: fun. All are challenging, and one gets to fight in places where your mom would never let you, such as the kitchen and the bathroom. With great combat action, interesting missions, and a good dose of humor, 3DO has another Army Men victory. --Jeanne Uy

Rating: - Great Classic Game
This game is a masterpiece! My 4 yr old and myself are addicted and we can't stop playing. Each level presents a new/different challenge. Also, my 4 yr old now knows more about different weapon selections than I care for him to know. The game isn't too hard, nor is it too easy. It's challenge level is just about right to become somewhat frustrated every now and then....I'll find myself stuck on one level for 2-3 days, and then advance through 2 or 3 more levels in one sitting.
Rating: - A Cool Game
Even Though i played only the first two levels i thought this was an excellent game. This is a game to by after you rent it. It's tons of fun. It's a great game. You gotta try it.
If You liked this game then check out all of the Army Men games.
Rating: - Good Army men game
This game was a good one for the multiplayer and single player and that is a little wiered for the army men games because they are normally one or the other. This one had a good compromise.
you will never get board with this game!!!!!
