Almost every gamer has played Worms or a spin off of it. Worms has gone from being one of the greatest side-viewing blow-em-ups, Worms: Armageddon, to one of the worst 3D, pain-in-the-ass-camera games, Worms: Mayhem. It's nice to see that the classic Worms game is coming to the handheld consoles, but is it all it should have been?

Worthplaying tossed up a review of the latest Worms offering, Worms: Open Warfare. The game offers no storyline, no plot, nothing to get in the way of the reason to play the game, blowing everything up. Unfortunately, the title doesn't offer as much as it should and could have. The weapon choices have been reduced and there is lack of true campaign mode, as to the reasons why it ended up like this, no one knows. The review notes that the game is fun to play with friends, as all Worms incarnations have been, but it all comes up short. The final score was a 6.7.

Here's a small preview of the review:

The graphics seem far more modern than the gameplay itself does; the Worms all have the cartoon appearance that cel shading provides, mostly because they are in fact cel-shaded. This style works exceptionally well for the Worms series, as it is the epitome of cartoon violence. This styling ensures that the graphics are simplistic all around, focused on stark lines and bright colors. Despite the simple design behind the graphics, it is readily apparent that this is a next-gen portable game. Nothing is pixelated, and it all looks smoothly drawn, as if perhaps a comic artist painted it upon the PSP screen in person.
