    I had a lot of fun while playing Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare. The main reason for that is definitely the great humor of the franchise. Seeing the brawls between the plants and the undead is just always funny. I also really like the class-selection and sticker-/booster-pack-system. Though not every aspect of Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare was completely thought through. Team Fortress 2 – in direct comparison – has many similar strengths as Garden Warfare but comes with an enormous plus: Team Fortress 2 is free, Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare is not. But I still think that Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare will connect to its fan-base and with the slew of free updates coming to the game, long-term-motivation should be secured.

    All in all, it's a decent port of a great game that hasn't lost anything in it's translation to the PC.

    Plants Vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare brings to PC gamers a solid, frantic, fun multiplayer-based third person shooter experience.

    While this game might have the look and feel of a "family friendly" shooter, the reality is that the people playing it are of a standard to make it one for the shooter veterans who want a change of scenery from the brown wasteland battlegrounds.

    The freshest shooter to sprout in recent memory, PvZ is shackled by asinine DRM.

    Garden Warfare gives out a weird vibe. It has solid gameplay, cool look and almost no game-breaking bugs, but it doesn’t have a heart. As if even its creators did not care about their project and made it only because the higher management told them to.

As a big fan of the PVZ franchise, I was very curious to see what were coming. And the result, at least for me, is an instant success. Graphics are simply amazing running on 1080p on ultra, even with antialiasing set to high (and I play on a laptop with a gt 555m!), gameplay is very addictive, as different plants and zombies play in a unique way, sounds are very nice, the servers are working wonderfully (at least for now, while i'm writing this review). Overall a VERY polished game and for a little price for what it offers. There are several game modes, going from the classic deathmatch style, to garden ops (an up to 4 players coop where you can plant things to help you stop the zombies) and things like capture the gardens (like a capture the flag), and others. The replay value is incredible. Oh, and the game has a card store, that makes it freshier over time, as you unlock a LOT of things with it.

    I highly recommend it to anyone. Been a while since I had this fun playing an online shooter.

    I have played enougj of this game to think overally about it.

    Pros: - The humour that the series is keeping from the first till the last.

    Pros:
    - The humour that the series is keeping from the first till the last.
    - Many maps, ways to play.
    - Balanced abilities for each plant.
    - Customizables
    - Easy earning money

    Cons:
    - Iimited split screen
    - no melee attack
    - no single play
    - no story
    - requires huge resources and internet

    All in all, is a great shooter which puts violence on the lower position and ephasizes the fun and addiction.

    Like many Free 2 play team battle games PVZ garden warfare offers a solid team shooter with okay graphics and solidly distinct roles. How everLike many Free 2 play team battle games PVZ garden warfare offers a solid team shooter with okay graphics and solidly distinct roles. How ever it is not free to play and if this were any other game besides a PVZ game the fanboy scores wouldn't be there to put this as high as it is. At the end of the day its an shooter with dated graphics quite a few bugs and a hefty price tag to go with it. Returned Expand
