Rotatable camera angles, a variety of weapons (albeit they're all arrows), and a good mix of puzzles and action made this game entertaining....in an Archie Comics sort of way.
Your enjoyment of Portal Runner depends wholly on your tolerance for both straight-up, albeit slightly watered-down, 3D platform-adventure gameplay and 3DO's distinct brand of abstract patriotism.
Unfortunately the game is not going to be any kind of a challenge for the more seasoned PS2 owners amongst us.
It's clunky and frustrating due to its awful controls. [Nov 2001, p.160]
With rough textures and flat prerendered backgrounds, Portal Runner looks like a late-generation PlayStation title rather than a second-generation PS2 effort. It plays even worse.
It's got some nice CGI and a few neat lighting effects here and there, but with control issues, lame multiplayer and boring level design it's pretty obvious that the curse has struck again.

Summary The latest game set in the Army Men universe is a 3D action/adventure which finds photojournalist Vikki G. and sidekick Leo the lion in a quest to rescue her boyfriend Sarge from the clutches of the notorious Blue spy Bridget Bleu.
