Worms games
introduction
For those of you who
have not played any worms game before I will give you a brief introduction.
Worms is a multiplayer type game were you and your friends can battle it
out on weird and wonderful landscapes. It may sound boring but it is not
because you can spend hours playing the game also the is millions of options
to fiddle with.
Onto
Worms2
I have got the full version of
Worms2, I have managed to scrimp and scrape what I could find for this
review e.g. form the game, text files, web pages etc. I think the best
way to get across some the information about Worms 2 is to do it in a table
of comparing Worms, Worms Reinforcements and Worms 2.

All
these new things on worms 2 means total mayhem I know what you are thinking
why did they not make Worms 3D this because they wanted to be different
then other games Team 17 wants it to be unique. The strange thing is that
it does not seem to be as popular as Worms.
The graphics in this
game are much smoother and High resolution then Worms1, because of this
I thought that they would have to cut down on playabilty. Now the Worms
have there own personality and there is even more action. But with everything
good comes something bad here is the things that are missing from the original
game...
:The ability to draw your
own landscapes in full color
:The ability to give your
worms more then 200 Hit points
Internet
play
Unlike
most games the internet play is more reliable and user friendly just log
on to your server then run the internet program in the game then Wella.
On Internet play you can use your own Weapon and Scheme files which you
can edit to your Hearts Content. If you have got Worms2 version 1.0 then
this function would not work you will need to go to
http://www.microprose.com
to get the patch of V 1.05
Here
comes the screen shots!
Here
are some pictures shots from Worms2 which I have acquired from Worms2 demo.
This
weapon is a very large mini gun
