Toy Soldiers: Cold War Review (Xbox 360)

 

Historically, the Cold War doesn't make a great setting for video games – the lack of major battles between the United States and the USSR takes away from that action potential. Thankfully, Toy Soldiers: Cold War infuses the Cold War with a bit of...

Each level also has at least one vehicle that the player can take control of and move through the level, ranging from tanks to helicopters to fighter jets. Powered by batteries, with replacements scattered across the maps, these vehicles have a limited...

There's something immediately appealing about Signal Games' return to the Toy Soldiers universe, which comes as something of a remarkable contrast to its predecessor. Cold War takes all the espionage, subterfuge and deniable operations of the greatest...

Toy Soldiers Cold War Review

 

Oozing of nostalgia Toy Soldiers Cold War builds upon the foundations laid by its predecessor. While the setting may of jumped from the trenches of World War 1 to the Cold War (with the slight change that the Cold War is far from cold) the gameplay...

While Cold War improves on the predecessor there are still aspects that require a bit more attention. More unit and enemy types would improve the overall game as would more variation on gameplay. Replay value is a little low (due to the repetitive...

Toy Soldiers: Cold War Review

 

War does change. A little.

Outstanding, hands-on tower defense gameplay with fun vehicles; over-the-top 1980s vibe; rewind feature allows replay of any passed waves; exquisite detail

Only slightly progressive from the first Toy Soldiers; not as strategic, charming, or challenging as the previous game; occasional framerate chug

The vehicles in game all have little clues to let you see that they are toys, like wind up pieces or visible batteries. If you see the foot soldiers up close (looking to see the whites of their eyes perhaps?) you'll notice that they have a plastic...

Let's hear it for the 80's! Despite the fact that said decade unfolded quite some time ago, they still live on in games here and there, mostly through reboots. However, some games actually take their essence and make something worthwhile out of them –...

Toy Soldiers: Cold War maintains a good balance of difficulty, though there are times things can be a bit easy, depending on what you have placed, and where. However, there are five adjustable difficulty settings, and General Mode tightens things up a...
