  • Summary: Zombies are invading your home, and the only defense is your arsenal of plants! Armed with an alien nursery-worth of zombie-zapping plants like peashooters and cherry bombs, you'll need to think fast and plant faster to stop dozens of types of zombies dead in their tracks. Obstacles like a setting sun, creeping fog and a swimming pool add to the challenge, and with five game modes to dig into, the fun never dies! Expand

    Plants vs. Zombies is great fun, and is one of those games that will have you playing just one more level until you find that you've played for another hour or more.
  2. Charming and hard to stop playing. See for yourself what all the fuss is about. [April 2011, p.81]

    Would be PSN's best strategy game - but not at this price. [Apr 2011, p.90]
  4. Only minus the satisfying touch-screen interaction. [Apr 2011, p.118]

  1. when i bought this game i honestly expected to be wasting my money. its a defense strategy game, its cute and lacking graphical prowess, its charming and what the hell can a plant do against a zombie? you plant plants they throw seeds at incoming zombies ....pixeljunk monster fans this is all you Expand
  2. The game is awesome! Get it by any means now. Extremely addicting, several mini-games, a good soothing challenge for those tired of the mainstream FPS or any other media that's usually pushed down our throats to buy. This is a buy, because of its originality in an already infested zombie media. I give the game a solid 9, because of its co-op, multiplayer, and addicting single player campaign. Don't waste your buck, if you think you'd get bored, because its a strategy game, and often you find doing the same thing over and over; otherwise a great entry to PSN. Expand

    This version of Plants vs. Zombies is the best out yet. The game looks great in HD and the controller feels like a natural fit for this game. A great game that's another PSN must buy. Expand
  4. Plants vs. Zombies is rich with content and I think it's one of the best 'tower defense' games on the Playstation Network. The game looks great in high definition, and the controls are simple and easy to pick up on. Once you beat all the main levels, there is still tons more to do. Co-op is good fun, and the survival mode can be addictive. I can go on and on about the good things that Zombies vs. Plants offers but I'll save you the time so you can go buy the game and enjoy it for yourself. Expand
