7. Worms History/ Comparison

   At the request of people on the Worms 4: Mayhem message boards,
 I have created a comparison from the earlier 3D games and
compared it to this game. First, my review of this game.
( sorry if this looks wierd. Stupid 79 margin)
---------------------------------------------------------------
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.

Overall

    This game is a great solo game, on-line multi-player ,
or a party game to keep your guests entertained.
This is a must have for any action or strategy gamer alike.
 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Here are some comparisons.
Worms 3D had some carzy landscape destruction. Worms 4 has
the destruction more controlled. No longer would you blow up
a rock and see a bit of it floating in ther air. Worms 4 brought
many new weapons to the armory, while Worms 3D stuck
with the classics. On the other hand, Worms 4 also
removed some weapons, like the Uzi. Though it was more
enjoyable in 3D, Worms 4 has made the jetpack controls
more realistic. The air strike vehicle has changed from
3D to Worms 4, in which it is a helicopter.

Here are flaws phosphors came up with
-----------------------------------
on xbox live:
- unless you create a team from scratch, any changes that you
make to an existing team style are not saved and do not
appear when you choose that team for online play
- you can't select a game with randomly generated map
(like you could do with the slot machine and tweakable properties in w3D)
- you can't change maps in between rounds for a multiple round match
- you can't start a new match without having to exit and
resend party invites after the current match finishes.

If you need more review content, go to the review portion on
Worms 4 on Gamespot to find out more.


8. Multiplayer/ Wormpot

       What's the only thing better than worms???? Worms with
other people of course!!!! Worms 4 allows you to play on either
your console with other players, or online with people across
the world.

Offline
------------
    For this, you will need a controller, the game, and an Xbox.
Simply select multiplayer, and choose 2/3/4 players. After everyone
chooses a team, you can start the game.

Online
----------
      For the online mode, you will need the game, an XBOX, XBOX Live
subscription, and a controller. Select Xbox Live from the main menu to
proceed. Enter the password for your gamer tag, and select a mode to begin.
This game supports headseats and friends list.

WormPot
--------------

    WormPot is a device in the game which allows you to randomize the
game types and setting for even more fun. Use the slot machine to use
wormpot. When you are done, start the game with these options. This can
only be used to create multiplayer matches, and cannot be used on the
single player missions.

9. Challenges

In this game, there are challenges that you can complete to earn
more rewards and coins for the worm shop.

Sniper Rifle Challenge
-----------------------------------
This is basically a text of your sniper rifle skills. Hit all the targets to
complete the mission. The various rifle targets will be hidden across the
landscape, so you may have to play this challenge more then once to
reach the time goal. Note that you cannot move, so you will have to line
up your shot from where your worm is currently standing.

Jet Pack Challenge
--------------------------------
In this jet pack challenge, you will need to collect 15 crates while flying
around the map on your jetpack. each time you collect a crate, you will
recieve more fuel for the jetpack. If you fall, you will fail, so try not to run
out of fuel. To conserve fuel, if you don't know where to go next, land and
try to locate the next crate, so that you are not burning fuel.

Super Sheep Challenge
-------------------------------------
Guide the flying sheep towards each target. You have unlimited super sheep,
so you do not have to be worried if you mess one up. Use the left analog stick
to steer the sheep and the right analog stick to tilt the sheep camera.

Icarus Potion Challenge
------------------------------------
Use the Icarus potion to collect all the crates around the map. Note that you
have
manually keep your worm flying, so button mash. After collecting each crate,
locate the next one before taking off again. Try not to hit anything, as it
will disrupte
your flying.

Shotgun Challenge
-------------------------------
Use the shotgun to destroy all the targets. try to hit them all before they
reach the
ground, but if they do, it doesn't matter. If you shoot them quickly enough,
you can
still make the timelimit. The radar is useful in locating each target.

Accuracy Challenge
------------------------------
Use the poison arrow to poison all the enemy worms. You don't need
to hit the actual worm, just land the arrow close to its location and it will
explode in a cloud of gas that will poison the worm.

Navigation Challenge
-----------------------------------
Move your worm around the landscape and collect all the crates.
Your worm will only start off with one health, so you cannot fall from the
heights.
Use the girder to make paths and the ninja rope to pull the crate towards you.

Crate Collect Challenge
------------------------------------
Use the ninja rope to pull the crate towards you rather than moving all the way
up to it and collecting it manually. There are 10 crates to collect.

Bonus Item
------------------
If you made all the timelimits, then you will recieve the DINO to get in the
worm shop.

Deathmatch Challenges 1-10
-------------------------------------------
This is a general strategy on how to beat all of these missions. Try to kill
all the worms as quickly as possible. Use your powerful weapons like the
bazooka as soon as you can. Avoid using grenades with long fuse times
if you want to save time and achive the time limit. Instead on going around
landmines,
walk over them and move quickly to avoid them. Do not collect the crates. There
should
be enough weapons to kill all the worms without much trouble. For all your hard
work, you will recieve Re-Submission and Wormenstein items to buy in the shop.
