    A perfect fit for the PSP. It’s puzzle based so you don’t have to worry about control issues. The screen is super wide so you can see more of the map than normal and the game has no real continuity involved so you can pick it up and play a game without having to remember where you were at.

    It's much better looking, the controls are easier to use and the wider screen format makes the game appear to be about twice the size of the DS version.

    The game is a great fit on the PSP, and the widescreen perspective complements the large, horizontally oriented level designs nicely. By contrast, the DS version is awkward and ugly and generally fails to capture the feel of Worms.

    If you're into strategy games, chances are you've come across these cute but dangerous worms. Decent choice for those wanting to game on the go.

    I got this game for my birthday, and im loving every bit of it. I have loved Worms since the first one, and Worms Open Warfare is a trip back to its roots. I prefer the 2D worms by far, the 3D versions are still good but its just not the same, using the bazooka in Worms 3D is virtually impossible.… Expand

    Ok game. Not bad but not amazing. I liked the 3D backrounds and the 2D characters but in every game against the computers, when it's there turn you have to wait atleast 1 minute for them to actually move. Also in the previous worm games you could pick the worm you wanted to use. In this one you can't. Other then that this game is pretty good, and worth a buy.… Expand

    Worst worms game in the series but Worms: Open Warfare 2 is the best game in the series. I recomend that one over this one any day. worms: OW 1 has no online, looks like crap, not enough variety and to few weapons. Worms: OW 2 has all this plus more including downloadable content to expand your worms experiance.… Expand
