People seemed to have lost interest in Worms, what with the series becoming a little too ambitious; evolving into '3D' games which went against what made it so appealing in the first place. Well now, in the form of 'Open Warfare', the old school brand of Worms has returned on PSP, and is every bit as good as you remember! The graphics have also been polished to perfection with beautifully animated backgrounds which are just the icing on the cake. And if you don't know anyone else who has a PSP, up to four of you can play it on one! Basically, if you've been a fan of Worms since it's debut on PS1 then you'll love this. The only criticism I have to make is that the developers didn't include the Holy Hand Grenade (there's no better way to pay homage to Monty Python!) and the Super Sheep, two of the best weapons ever! Why?! It doesn't matter that much though because everthing else is still there. Quality!

Worms open war fare is a good game following on from the highly succesful worms collection.
good game play and lots of tasks to complete, however there are only 11 weapons to use, no super sheep, cow, granny, bundgee, holy bomb, and so on the only decent weapon is the bannana bomb and you have to wait 4 ages for a box to fall from the sky to even collect 1.
if you like the worms collection then you may like this game ... other wise dont bother!

Unless you've been locked away for several years you will have heard of Worms and its several incarnation.
For those that don't, imagine the old 80s game Tanx, but with more imaginative ways to dispatch your opponent as the animated characters react to the way they are attacked.
The PSP version of worms is a lovely looking basic version, you get no frills, in fact you have a quick mode, which is one game with a set of worms against another team, Create a battle mode, which allows you to select teams and landscapes and do a set of skirmishes, multiplayer mode, which I will admit I haven't found anyone to try this with and finally Challenge mode, which is a series of increasingly challenging maps with opponents.
The simplicity works as with later Worms games, some of the challenges made you throw the controller at the screen, something you don't want to do with the PSP. However, this simplicity will tire pretty quickly in 1 player mode. The machine allows for the sharing of a game, however I reckon the true power would be the multiplayer mode where you both have clear view of what was going on.
Worms can only last as a party game, so make sure you arrange to get it with some friends!

An Amazing Game For a PSP!
Ok, so this game has a couple of down sides,not so many weapons and for some people, a camera angle from the side. Considering this game is for a portable console, it is VERY good. Read more

Worms - Still a great game if lacking some aspects
First of all this is a superb game, it's easy to learn and very addictive, easy to play with a friend as it's turn based and just involves passing your PSP to and fro. Read more
