Worms thread fever

It's Worms Fever!

Lurker · 06.27.2008, 07:25 AM

Ah haven't played that in years!

Hey, did you ever play that game Hogs of War? It was like worms but 3d, it was absolutely brilliant. It was for the playstation.

You would through the whole game, going through each level, with the same group of soldiers and you get points which you could use to promote/level up each of your team and you could choose what type of soldier they would become, customising your team.

SYRFox · 06.27.2008, 07:28 AM

Didn't have it but heard a lot about it by the time it was released (I was like 10 and still totally fond of videogames and into commercial house music).
Actually some 3D Worms games exist as well, but I'm pretty sure they did not top the 2D versions, I can't name loads of games that converted well from 2D to 3D (well Mario, Zelda, Metroid...)

EDIT: ah! you posted in the time I was writing this

And it had Rick Mayall (is that how his name is spelt?) doing voices for the pigs.

Ahah, those good old PS1 3D graphics. We thought it looked realistic. I can't believe how realist videogames will be in 10 years

I know. With each new platform, I would always think, "Right, well they won't get much better then that".

Lurker · 06.27.2008, 07:33 AM

God, I really want to play Hogs of War now.

Wow, I would like to play that.

I'm sure you can find the ISO somewhere. I even found the Bust A Groove 1&2 iso. Yep, I like Bust A Groove, it reminds me of my childhood.

Lurker · 06.27.2008, 07:49 AM

Ah, that was great too. I think we I still have that somewhere. Games were better in those days, I'm sure.

Lurker · 06.27.2008, 07:50 AM

Ever play Tenchu?

I'm not sure which Tenchu that is but whatever, you get the idea. The graphics look too good to be ps1 so that probably isn't either of the two I played.

SYRFox · 06.27.2008, 07:51 AM

My uncles did. I was too young. The wildest game I played by the time I had a Playstation was probably Crash Bandicoot. I think I began to play Goldeneye in 2000. It seems like it was a great game as well

I thought this thread was gonna be on thread worms, aww...

Lurker · 06.27.2008, 07:53 AM

Don't bother with him you fool. You know he's going to turn into a zombie.

Lurker · 06.27.2008, 08:01 AM

Final Fantasy VII! Best game ever!

SYRFox · 06.27.2008, 08:25 AM

That was really a great time for videogames. The Nintendo 64 had lots of classics as well.
