![]() ![]() ![]() Buzz is also able to extend his wings to perform a double jump, and can perform a foot stomp to activate switches. Buzz also has a spin attack, which can be charged up into a continuous spin. Buzz can attack enemies with a wrist laser, which can be charged up for additional power, and can also be aimed through a first-person viewpoint. The home console and computer version puts the player in control of Buzz Lightyear as he goes across fifteen levels (consisting of ten main levels and five boss levels) based on and inspired by locations from the film in order to rescue Woody. Additionally, the game was officially ported to the PlayStation 5 in 2022 for PlayStation Plus Premium tier users, and can be accessed in the classic games library. Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue has been re-released several times as a downloadable game for PlayStation consoles, including the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable in 2011, the PlayStation Vita in 2012, and PlayStation 4.

No matter how old you are, you should finish this gem from the past at least once in your life.Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue is a platform game based on Pixar's 1999 computer animated film Toy Story 2. Overall, Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue is an excellent game and by far the best Disney adaptation video game of them all. I think it is the music again in this stage. The end bosses are also really dark and grim and the overall feeling of this fight is, yet again, more epic and glorious than it has the right to be. This fight also felt like a Dark Souls boss battle for some unexplainable reason. The same goes for the Emperor Zorg battle on the small elevator. To top it off, the mini boss is horrifying for this kid game in my honest opinion. This feeling is enhanced by the music and the total confusion on where to go. All levels where colorful and jolly before, now you get in a dark and grim maze. This level changes it scenery, ambience and overall feeling out of the blue. Another note of excellent music, in combination with the level design and objectives, is level 10: Elevator Hop. The upbeat music, in combination with the roaring engine over your head and the dive attacks in which he tries to pump you full of lead is just epic. Too bad that I could only hear twenty seconds of the track, because the boss is ridiculously easy, but most of the time I let him live for three minutes, until the track is over. ![]() It felt like one of the most glorious battles I had in a while, playing videogames. The battle with the plane on level 3: Bombs Away blew my mind in terms of the fight track behind it. It is amazing to hear such perfect tracks in a simple game like this. What sets Toy Story 2 apart for me, is the excellent music. Your enemies are all evil toys, deployed by your arch nemesis Emperor Zorg. You got a nice stomp attack, can whack enemies with your wings and, of course, shoot your death ray laser to blow them up. The controls are a little slippery sometimes but work fine most of the time. The graphics are colorful but nothing special. The level design is so good in this game that I sometimes forgot that I was playing a simple Disney movie adaptation. In the end, you save your old pal Woody, just like in the movies. You visit every famous scene from the movie and unlock more story video clips when progressing. When collected enough tokens, you can progress to the levels ahead, which increase in difficulty. The ways to do this change in every level and no level looks the same. Your objective in every level is to collect five tokens of the Pizza Planet by completing a mini game, beating a unique mini boss, collecting fifty coins, collecting five small NPC characters like sheep’s, army men, duckies or green aliens and by winning a timed race. They are full of stuff to do and give an open world feeling. The only difference is that the levels in this game are surprisingly well done. An adaptation of the movie that follows it one on one. In the basics, it is just what I described earlier. With Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue, my mind was blown and it is still the best Disney based game I’ve played so far. When thinking about Disney themed video games, I mostly think about cheap adaptations of the Disney story with some quick and lame puzzles to solve and some rushed levels to cash in on the success of the movie. This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.Ībsurdly good Disney game, mind blowing.
