Over The Weapons – Including bazooka-toting worms, exploding sheep, homing missiles, grenades and banana bouncing bombs of death. Unparalleled Multiplayer Experience – Multiplayer mode allowing up to four players using one unit (hot seat). Multiplayer mode via WIFI technology allowing connection of 4 units.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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

    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
