    It falls squarely in the middle of fun and boring as it's both. The repetitive nature of the game just takes out any fun that might have occurred in the beginning.

    The game is repetitive, no doubt, but there are enough challenges to make it worth a sitting or two.

    The graphics are cartoony but they could be improved, the voices and music are really good but the SFX are not quite on par, and the gameplay is repetitive and tedious.

    In the end, the result doesn't leave me very satisfied.

    Light years ahead of the competition? Well, no, but the kids may enjoy this one.

    Erratic control and graphical limitations on top of too many niggling requirements make this game experience less than enjoyable.

    BLSC's camera movement is an immediate hurl-inducing experience: the camera swoops around like a roller coaster gone mad.
  9. GameSpot

    Boasting nothing resembling extraordinary gameplay, it serves, rather, as a vehicle for the license.

    The platformer has a solid polygon engine and uses the cool cel-shading technique on Buzz on a few other characters.
  11. CNET Gamecenter

    With sloppy controls, an uncomfortable camera, poor voices, and awful music, BLSC has little to get excited about, even if you're a hard-core "Toy Story" fan.

    A game based on one of the most popular characters in the toy story ... An acceptable game with standard graphics and fairly hearty gameplay!

    My review may not be so helpful in the sense that I not only grew up with this game, but i grew up with it on the PC as well. The gameplay canMy review may not be so helpful in the sense that I not only grew up with this game, but i grew up with it on the PC as well. The gameplay can definitely feel like a bore to many people, and I can see why. The chase and battle playstyle is more fit for 5-9 year olds who like Toy Story or Buzz Lightyear in general. However, one thing that gets glossed over that really shouldn't get ignored is the soundtrack. The soundtrack for this game is absolutely phenomenal, and to veterans of Travelers Tales, the music style may seem familiar. The people responsible for the soundtrack of this game also helped do the soundtrack for Toy Story 2, Tarzan, A Bug's Life, and Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex.
    The controls can be on the slippy side admittedly, but you can get used it it after a level or two.
    The game isnt too hard I would say, with the exception of one level in particular, which is Level 12: Canis Lunis 2. If you have a kid who lacks patience, DO NOT let him play this level alone. From experience as a kid when i played this game (on two platforms no less), this level can kick your ass hard if you arent quick at dodging enemy fire and quick in killing the enemies. Its basically a Horde mode, but with a bomb in a separate room, which is timed. You have to kill every enemy in the room to get to the room with the bomb and destroy it before it blows up, which would give you a game over. imagine that about 10 times and follow it up with the second hardest boss in the game, and youve got a major test of patience on your hands.

    My bottom line is that this game about on line with a 7ish, (im giving it an 8 for nostalgia) but i would recommend the game.    … Full Review »

    This game, while a bit easy, is a nice, comfortable experience, and that is all it needs to be.
