The level-esque system provides a goal to work for.
Ability to make your avatar stand out in a croud with 100's of items for each sex.
Always plenty of people online to play with.
Excellent level design.
THE BAD:
Amount of lag encountered.
The seemingly endless supply of teammates who seem to play with paws rather than hands.
Wind changes sometimes seem out of synch with the physics.
SUMMARY: Overall Gunbound is a solid game for it genre, which admittedly you could argue isn't a big part of the market but with games this good why would you need more.
The main problems from the actual games point of view are the recently changed ways of buying clothes, where you buy for a week, month or limitless and limitless is now sooooooo expensive its stupid for the casual gamer. Also the stability of the servers is...
THE GOOD: I'm not gonna make this a long review. The basics about the game are all covered in the reviews below. And basically, nothing has changed, but there HAS been a major update concerning new maps, mobiles and a brand-new layout. The new name is Gunbound World Chamion. So I'm just going to discuss those new features. So, what's good about it?
- 2 brand-new mobiles, J. Frog and Kalsiddon They are both pretty hard to learn, but well worth it. They still need a bit of tweaking, but I'm sure they will get it right soon enough. - A few of the new maps are brilliant. Great fun on inventive locations. - The graphics have improved. The effects are extremely clear right now. And it still works like a charm on most PCs. - Lag has decreased dramatically. The servers are really stable now. - They also seemed to reduce the amount of hackers, which is a big pro! - The layout is VERY good. Although it takes a while to get used to. I know I had...
when i first heard about this game, i could not stop being ignorant and bash this game without knowing its real charm. Simple, yet so addictive.
This game is addictive to say the least. For those who have played any of the Worms game, you'll find this to be almost identical. You have a bot and you can move around and shoot within the given moving power and limit on time. Objective is simple: shoot down all opponents' bot down to 0 HP. When game reaches a certain amount of time sudden death will occur. There are a few different types of sudden death. For example; Double, Big bomb, double death, and a couple more.
Each bots have three attacks: 1-primary (little delay) 2- secondary ( average delay), and special shot (ss, not 55: lots of delay). delay is how long until your next turn. Each bot can carry items to use during combat.
This game also has special occurences, such as, wind change, lightning and most deadly of them all: Thor. But that's not all of...
THE GOOD: strategy, have to think, a variety of mobiles and avatars, guilds, can play with friends, very amusing, but addicting, many servers, alot of people on at once, have to adjust to the environment, spontaneous play and environment, many more =]
THE BAD: alot of idiots on the servers make the game annoying, addicting, pull your school grades down lol.. some people are too competetive. too many useless avatars, nothing unbearable. =]
SUMMARY: lots and lots of strategy, different styles of play, a variety of avatars and mobiles =] very fun, many servers, alot of people on at once, have to adjust to the environment, spontaneous play and environment, many guilds, can do almost anything, different genders, hacking prevention, many more =]
u can master many different mobiles, u can create different sets with different avatars, and just a very good and well made game in general =]
THE GOOD: Very fun, good range of unique and powerful mobile for you to use. Earn money to buy avatar and gain advantage with stats that come with the avatar.
THE BAD: Desperate and Pathetic people who suck at the game try to get their own avatar by hacking and scamming.<br><br>Game has been very slow and laggy so it sucks when your in the middle of the game and you get lagged out.
SUMMARY: This game is very unique and fun. It's also addictive in a good way. It is also free, that's the good thing, it's free, no money involved unless you wanna pay money for avatar.<br><br>This game is online from all over the world. People from Singapore to The United Kingdom to California. But since it's all over the world, their are different languages meaning some people you can't understand. But the majority of the players are english.
THE GOOD: The graphics. It's kinda cartoony which i like. Has a very nice selection of avatars.
THE BAD: Spam, scams, not a really broad range in selection of mobiles.
SUMMARY: The game is really good, in fact, it's about all I do. You earn gp and gold eventually making your rank go up and with the gold being able to buy new things to cutomize yourself with avatars. This game is all about competition. People compete to have the most avatars, have the most gold, for the ranks, and most of all just to win! What I like to do is try to play and get a high rank. (12000 btw) But i'm mostly interested in having all of the "god" sets.
So yah, deffenitly, go to www.gunbound.net and DL this. It's an overall really fun game. Watch out for the scammer though. I give this a 4 out of 5. ;D
THE GOOD: best damn free game ever its free good graphics cool secret mobiles customisable avatar
THE BAD: hackers scammers people who insult you lag game can be annoying sometimes
SUMMARY: This may seem like a simple game since you only really do one thing but it really isn't. You have to get your power just right and also have to figure out what angle and power to use in different situations.
The music is ok but people keep complaining about it and say things like "it's gay" and "too happy", blah I dont care about the music just as long as there is music I can listen too. If you are one of those weird people who don't like the music you can just turn the music volume off but keep the effects, so you can listen to your own music while you can still hear the sound of your opponent getting blown up.
Like any other online game you have ranks, and you go up ranks in gunbound by earning 'gp'. You...
THE GOOD: This game may appear childish at first glance, but the sound and music work perfectly for it.
THE BAD: You may only play it on-line, you can only start a game with an even number of people.
SUMMARY: Here's a game you shouldn't take at face-value. It's easily dismissed as "another Scorched Earth/Worms-ripoff", which in essence, is true. However, Gunbound delivers this idea in a truly superior fashion, by giving its players more incentive to play. First off, you don't play as a team of creatures, you have one single avatar at your disposal, which is fully customisable. This takes a very large amount of money, which can mean both real money (and I for one don't intend to shell out real money for virtual items), or virtual money, which is earned by simply playing the game.
The cutesy, bright graphics, the saccharine music, the fact that the maps are always the same, the fact that most people who participate in on-line games appear...
THE GOOD: Different Machines, Avatars, Money, Weapons, Levels, Graphics.
THE BAD: Scammers, Hackers, Annoying Players, Only Available Online.
SUMMARY: I'll start with the bad so we can improve on this. Scammers, who try to trick you are just plain annoying to play with. Hackers could do anything with your person, money and items. You get people saying insults over the game saying you're terrible (not that politely) and telling you to do something. I won't name what they say but it's pretty disturbing at some times. You do get the occasional nice person on though. The fact that it's only available online is pretty bad. They could of made it like Worms World Party, on and offline.
There are a wide selection of machines to play as and they each have there own 'quality'. Boomer is pretty bad against winds so watch out for him. The avatars you get are cool as well because you can upgrade them with the money you make. You make the money by...
