Product Description
The processing power of the new handhelds means Worms contains the best of aspects of all previous Worms games while at the same time offering the best Worms AI and most balanced weapons system to date. Plus with the introduction of a whole raft of unique features and laugh-out-loud comedy, Worms engages the player with streamlined gameplay especially suited to the smaller screen and shorter play time of a handheld device.

3 out of 5 stars Worms: Open Warfare - Not quite worms...   January 9, 2007
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have played almost all of the predecessing Worms games, and this one just doesn't pack enough of what makes the game genuinely "Worms." The fact that you cannot use your custom made teams in multiplayer leaves your frag matches lacking. The inability to give your teams their own "voice" also puts this game in the sub-par category. When you select one of the voice schemes, every team sounds the same. The limited supply of weapons, and the inadequate amount of damage for most weapons really places this game low on my "fun factor" list. Compared to Worms: Armageddon, this game is minor league.


2 out of 5 stars Trying to Worm their way out of 3D (not a kid's review)   November 26, 2006

I said NOT a kid's review!
Anway, I have just turned 14 and got Worms Open Warfare for my DS as asked. I have loved all of the previous Worms games, even the 3d versions and was glad that they had turned back to the classic 2d style. Unfortunately, the moment the title screen came into view, I was BITTERLY disappointed.

The graphics are awful, the weapons have more than halved in number, there are now only 4 worms a team, the backgrounds are un editable, there are only a few types of landscape, the voicebanks are limited, you stick to oil drums and can't move,the cpu takes AGES NOT TO MOVE?!?, you can only change a tiny amount of options and they even lie to you! I was hoping to see a handheld version of Worms where you could change the look of your worms, so the front cover displays. This, despite it being my own fault, was just plain stupid.

I am happily about to take this game back after it's failure, with just this for the Team 17 corp: slip away from Nintendo and stick to Sony. Cheers
Shaun Dodd

1 out of 5 stars Don't buy!   July 4, 2006
 9 out of 10 found this review helpful

After reading the reviews on Amazon, I went against my better judgment and bought the game. First because I loved the Worms games on PC and i was looking for a good stragety game. Big mistake! The biggest problem with this game is the worms on the screen are so small and it's very difficult to see where they are. Everything is squished together and it's not worth straining your eyes just to find your worm or the opponent. Please, if you're looking for a good Worms game, stick with PC. The DS screen is too small.


1 out of 5 stars buggy and incomplete   June 19, 2006
 7 out of 8 found this review helpful

I was a huge fan of the worms series back 5 years ago, but have yet to find a good version come out since Worms Armageddon. This one is no different. The display is blissfully back to 2d side scrolling instead of the recent 3d versions. But with the small screen and poor cross hairs it is nearly impossible to aim anything. But that isn't the only thing that makes this game feel unfinished and buggy, there is the menu system which you can't use the buttons or d-pad. Also the enemy worms think forever! The weapons are limited and the challenges are not terribly challenging. Don't waste your money.
