User Rating: 7.9 | Worms 4: Mayhem XBOX
Game play This game is very similar to Worms 3d in most ways. The controls are mostly the same. They are easy to learn and not very complex. This game is very easy to pick up and play. The levels of the game have improved a lot since the previous game. The levels are bigger, they have more detail, random mine dispensers, and a lot of land to explore. The computer intelligence of Worms 4 is much better then Worms 3D. Computer controlled worms will not blow themselves up as easily, and you might find them an interesting challenge. Worms 4: Mayhem brought about some new weapons for the Worms series, as well as many returning favorites. Some weapons a Worms veteran might recognize are the Bazooka, the shotgun, and the sheep. New additions include a sniper rifle, inflatable balloons and poison arrows. Graphics The graphics in this game are excellent. Water in the background sparkles, water splashes when some debris flies into it, and the background looks amazing. Most of the landscapes look as if they were from a beautiful painting. New smoke effects enhance the explosions animations to make them look excellent. Sound The music in this game is good. Most of the time, it plays softly in the background, and you will not notice it much. Sound effects have been improved in this game tremendously. Explosions sound cartoon-ish, but they fit the atmosphere. The classic voice overs return with no change to them. They still sound great. Lifetime This game has many unlock-ables, such as costumes, weapons and levels, to keep most people occupied for at least a month. Throw in the weapon and level creating system, XBOX Live support, and trophies to unlock, and you've got a game that will last.

If you are a casual gamer, rent it first to see if you like it. If you're looking for something to keep you entertained, this game will be worth all that you pay for it.
