Toy Soldiers is a classic of the ages (at least in my opinion). I remember hearing about it in an issue of Game Informer magazine from long ago. I always wanted to play it, but, never got a chance to (it was formerly an Xbox 360 exclusivity and was a downloadable digital title to boot) since I never had internet on my 360. But, I heard a lot of great things for it. Years later, while researching. I happen to heard the game was given a Steam release in 2012 years later, after it was on the Xbox 360. Playing it on computer it a blessing and the best part? All the DLC that used to be sold individually is on in one place with the Steam rerelease of this classic. To catch those up that are the uninitiated to this game (and general series) the game is a mixture between Action/RTS/Tower Defense (more on the latter than the former). The game is full of on your toes action not giving you a moment to breathe when you need it. It can be both frustrating and enjoyable for those looking for a good challenge. It takes a bit of experimentation on what defense you set up works best for the player. Also, the game lets you commandeer your placements AND vehicles throughout the games various stages (12 to be exact). The setting is more of a compact telling of the First World War and lets you get into the thick of it as either the English, The French or the Germans (The former is base game, the next one from the dlc "The Kaiser's Battle" and the latter is in Game Plus). Sadly, no Dough Boys/Yanks to play as (although, they are mentioned in the game). Regardless, it's a fun game where metal tin soldiers come to do battle in what feels like a cross between Night at the Museum meets Toy Story meets The Indian in the Cupboard (maybe over stretching the concept, but, play it and see for yourselves). Grab a copy and head into the trenches for a merry ole' time and bring some tea with you while you're at it! XD

Initially I thought this might be like the movie, which is pretty gnarly. It is not. It is still pretty neat, as there's not much like jumping into a biplane to attack the enemy. Other than that it's a lot of tower defense shenanigans.

Some toy soldier games have basic green and red plastic soldiers with no detail and limited movement. This is not the case here you can almost forget they are toys until you zoom out and see a desk lamp or a giant wall clock. Its a lot of fun and not complicated because it doesn't need to be. The 3rd person control of tanks and aircraft giving a bit more freedom than regular tower defense game. The AI is good enough that you can use tanks and planes without being run over while doing it. Its worth $10 def get on sale when you see it. UPDATE: Just got Toy Soldiers Complete edition with its Toy Soldiers cold war sequel and the original and they changed the original game with cold wars everything and its passable but this one is by far better. however Cold War is fun.
