We've got to hand it to Avalanche Software: You guys sure know how to inject a modicum of ingenuity into an extremely tired genre. For instance, the upcoming game adaptation of Toy Story 3 was off our proverbial radar moments after it was first announced -- however, a recent trailer for the game's "Toy Box" mode, which allows its (presumably juvenile) players to make their own levels and missions, it's now taking up a tiny place in our minds. (And our hearts.) Check out the highly customizable trailer above.

I don't understand how someone can possibly like Toy Story for the Genesis. It was terrible.

Toy Story 2 had those great level designs with huge worlds filled with collectable items... Kinda in a Banjo-Kazooie way... They don't make games like this anymore, it's all too linear and story-based, no exploration, no clever level designs. I wish they made a game like that again.

This looks really fun. The gameplay looks pretty smooth, I really want to see some extended gameplay instead of 3 second clips spliced together, though.

I'd be skeptical about this movie, but Pixar is largely the same as what it once was creatively, they've just recieved a helluva lot more money in the process
So it could be good.

Is it just me or did anyone else think the first time they saw this that toy box mode is essentially a ramped up version of LBP? Pretty stoked for this movie and the movie the game.

SO , um, i was kinda totally all over the toy story 2 game back on the PS1, anyone else out there do that? I'm pretty sure I thought it was the shit. Don't be bad talking my movie and gaming classics. oh nostalgia, you're strange effects on otherwise rational minds.

Toy Story came out in 1995. I'll bet most of today's 6-10 year olds have never even seen it. I'll definitely be giving this game a try.

No where in my post did I say LBP invented custom levels, moron.

My son is 4 and this is EXACTLY the kind of game he will love. I can create a level and he can run around all he wants blowing stuff up, jumping n stuff, driving cars, smashing things. He loves sandbox type of games but most of everything out there is too mature. As an example, the Lego City part of Lego Star Wars is perfect for him. He loves running around and playing in that environment. Toy Story 3 looks like a lot of fun plus I can enjoy it with my son.
