Action Man: Operation Extreme

A somewhat respectable effort, I suppose, at bringing Action Man to the gaming world; it could've been worse. For some reason, the first mission is based on top-down vehicular combat, after which Action Man steps out into the third-person shooter meat of the game. It takes obvious inspiration from Metal Gear Solid, dual menus providing access to weapons and gadgets, the latter of which you'll need to use to complete standard-fare objectives during missions. Whilst the controls are reasonable, the game's camera is horrendous, fixing itself at odd angles and at an uncomfortably close range, giving the player a frustratingly myopic and cryptic view of the environment.
