5.0 out of 5 stars Worms - a great series, World Party - a good game, April 25, 2002

Ok, first of all Worms is an awesome series. The things that make Worms great are 1. strategy 2. strategy 3. stategy.

I honestly see a number of comparisons between Worms and golf. The player thinks through which club/weapon would be best to use given the cirumstances and conditions. What type of shot should be made? What angle is necessary to pull the shot off? Which direction is the wind blowing?

However, in addition the Worms player must think about defense. Should I burrow in here? If I transport there, will that leave me open to be killed during the next round?

This is a true thinking game, but it's so much fun to play.

No, you won't get killer graphics and fast paced action, but you will get a good challange and an awesome game to play against friends.

Now, onto this particular Worms game. World Party is very, very similar to Worms Armageddon. In fact, they are about the same game. If you don't have a Worms game, this is as good as any of the three to get. However, if you already have Armageddon, this game isn't going to offer much that's new.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Greatest Game in Existence!, April 4, 2002

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Worms World Party (Video Game)

Worms. The person who thought it up was a genius. Believe me, Worms is great. There are 53 weapons choices each with their own charicteristics, over 1000 different modes and the freedom to create and custom your own teams of the creatures. However, I could see a lot of people bypassing this game because it is two dimensional. At first this may turn you away from the wonderful world of worms but a 3D copy of worms was brought out a while back called Hogs of War. I, a diehard worms fan, met that with anticipation- but when I rented it for two nights I turned away. The 3D nature of the gameplay detracts all obstacle problems and can make gameplay monotonous. Anyway, the makers of that game had NO sense of humour. So 2D is good.
I originally bought this highly addictive game for PC, but users beware- it doesn't work on XP!
So if you want some funfilled deathmatches in league style, with full multiplayer and singleplayer options- or a level based game with training missions, get Worms World Party. Experience blowing up sheep and air mail with a differnce. Fight over random or custom landscapes.
GET WORMS WORLD PARTY!

4.0 out of 5 stars Worms - simple concept, yet surprisingly captivating, December 12, 2002

By 

William Stevenson (State College, PA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Worms World Party (Video Game)

First, why did I give it four stars rather than five? Setting up multiplayer games with advanced options is a bit of an ordeal, but this is perhaps because there are just so many ways to configure a game. I owned (just about) the same game for the PC, and the use of a mouse just makes more sense in certain scenarios. Finally, as you increase the number of players in a game, each time gets less worms - a little frustrating if people gang up on you,

Now the good stuff - I like that this game is easy to learn yet hard to master. I speak with some authority, having spend most of my freshman year of college playing friends over the network. On the playstation, it keeps all of its good qualities, and just has the few caveats described above. The game combines cartoon physics with cartoon violence (think of a weapon that launches exploding cows and worms that do martial arts moves). Realistically, most games for a younger audience tend to need a little violence to sell, and this is perhaps the nicest way to give that necessary allure - mostly in that someone does not have exploding cows at their disposal. There are several factors in using the "weapons" in the game which make a player think creatively about physics - throwing a grenade against the wind, deciding how much force to launch a, ahem, cow with, etc. Overall the game provides countless hours of fun and humorous gameplay. Enjoy!
