2003 was the year of change for the Worms franchise. Best known more for being a 2D game, Worms 3D had the massively big task of bringing these pink warriors of strategic war to the third dimension, thus bringing their never ending battle into a whole new light.

Although the reception tends to be mixed on this one with some liking it and others preferring the 2D games, I'm kinda sat in the middle with this one. It's nowhere near as good as the glory days of Armageddon and the camera can be a bit of a pain but I do think Team17 did a perfectly acceptable job with changing up the series massively.

Gameplay's still good and the Worms look exactly how you'd expect them to be with plenty more emotion and personality brimming from them. A good start to the 3D era although Worms 4: Mayhem would take things up a notch.
