 Good times for all October 2, 2008
If you've never played the original Worms game, you're not missing out. This game offers everything the original had and more. Fun, turn based game-play where the object is to eliminate the opposing army using an of your various arsenal of weapons.
 At Last, My Package From Home! June 27, 2008
Pros:
1. Hours of entertainment.
2. Numerous ways to play (1P, multiplayer, puzzle, campaign, etc.)
3. Easy controls.
4. Fun customization of team names, flag, voices, color, etc.
Cons:
1. When it's your turn, it says "Ready?" and has a 5 second delay. You can press a button to say you're ready...just don't click X or you'll fire a weapon randomly and most-likely, you'll hurt yourself :-)
2. Slight delay with multiplayer...about 5 seconds off.
I used to play Worms World Party on my PC and I loved it, so I expected Worms 2 Open Warfare to be just as entertaining. I was right!! What's great about this game is that it's portable. I'm going on vacation soon and I'll be able to play against my husband during our 3 hour flight. It's great! In the meanwhile, I'm practicing my skills by going through the puzzle and campaign modes. Each round can last about 20 minutes, so it's a good timesink. It really is a great game and I'd highly recommend it!
Nice game, yet could be more May 7, 2008
I'm a worms fan since the 2.0 days, so i had high expectations with this game, and all most got 100% fulfilled.
The single player mode is extensive and very hard, and the internet multi player option is *very* nice to have, it is nice to blast people around the world. The customizations options are OK and you can also download some basic stuff.
I only wish that more weapons were available, there a 30 or so but some classics are missing.
Other thing that bothers me is the new jump mechanics and collision detection, is very odd comparing to previous versions, and after sometime it can get annoying (makes 30 seconds very hard to use fine)
Cheers
as funny as expected April 8, 2008
It's wonderful. Very good graphics and it's as funny as the PC game I played for a long time.
A Great Classic September 10, 2007

Well, all in all this is the dumbest game on the planet. But yet the appeal of this game is mystifying and the game is so addicting. We have played every version since day one and can never put it done. This is one of the best multi-player games out there for us "older" players!
The game is in it's classic 2-D format. They have a system in place to earn coin after completing things so you can go to the store and unlock campaigns and gear. That is a nice format, but they do make it too easy to earn coin and unlock items.
For being on the PSP, we have the PSP2000, Worms 2 really looks crisp and clean. The newer cut-scenes are hilarious as usual. I swear they could make a cartoon series with these worms. The gameplay is rather smooth and as alwasy, easy to understand. On the PSP, it is a little harder to control naturally.
There are a few newer weapons than in previous versions. They are really hard to obtain during battle though. They have rarely come into play yet. The landscapes are done rather well, but too many of them remind you of the ones from years ago. Dirt is dirt no matter how many ways you rearrange it. There is one or two landscapes though that are particulary very challenging.
The AD-HOC multiplayer works really well with little delay time involved. I tried to play on the Internet, but absolutley nobody on playing. :(
If you are a Worms fan, then you will buy this anyway. If you like the more classic gaming and you have never played this before, give it a try, you might like it.
