real time

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!

Pick it up, find a way to play it, or rent it. It grows on you, and has many possibilities. I love it.
