A Bug's Life for PlayStation 1

Of all the various types of games, the 3D platform game may just be the hardest to pull off. In 2D platform games, the developers restrict your options and guide you along a predetermined path that can mask flaws in the game. In fighting, driving, and sports games, the pure adrenaline of playing can mask many shortcomings. In role-playing games, a sense of scale and adventure can help cover up bad graphics or nonsensical puzzles. But when you pop in a 3D adventure game, you have the luxury of exploring every nook and cranny of a game; in fact, there's no other way to play a true 3D game except to leave no stone unturned. A developer has the opportunity to shock you with the detail, beauty, and scope of his creation. On the other hand, if a 3D game is flawed, it is there in all its misery for you to uncover. In the worst 3D games, you are a free-roaming guest in a world that you would never, ever want to visit.

I just bought this game at Toys "R Us and i loved it. This is a great game for the older children about 8 to 13 years old. The graphics are wonderful in this game, and you even get a few actual movie clips now and then. There is action and adventure as you help Flik save his colony. This game helps... Read full review »

Gee, lookie here. Here's another one of those movie-based games, that tempt little kiddies to shove their money out of their pockets, and into the developers' pockets. Usually, movie-based games tend to be total flops (like Space Jam the playstation game). They have to be released soon after the... Read full review »

A Bug's Life

You play the role of a purple ant named Flik in this free-roaming 3D game based on the 1998 computer animated movie by Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney Pictures. Flik needs your help in saving an ant colony from an evil grasshopper named Hopper and his band of evil insects. The game is composed of five acts spanning three levels each, with twenty scenes from the movie mixed in to help further the story. As in most 3D platform games, you'll need to complete various objectives before advancing to the next level. These tasks range from finding an anthill to gliding across a riverbed canyon using only a dandelion. Throughout each level, Flik will have to battle various enemies on both the ground and in the air, including spiders, cockroaches, stink bugs, flies, beetles and grasshoppers. You'll also have to confront boss characters at the end of each act. Flik isn't defenseless though; he can throw berries, butt-bounce on enemies or simply run away from the danger. You'll also be able to pick up seeds and drop them wherever you want -- once you bounce on them, they'll grow into plants to help in your adventure. Disney/Pixar's A Bug's Life includes authentic voices from a majority of the movie's stars as well as an original music score.
