ok, most of you probably dont know what Liero is, so I'll explain. It's a little split screen game where you get to go around blowing up your opponent. The twist is... you're worms! Ok, now before you get grossed out, goto http://lieroxtreme.thegaminguniverse.com and download it. This new version of the original Liero has internet play!

Holy shit I remember this game!! Awesome! My only gripe is that it doesn't run on Macs. It's much better than worms because it isn't turn based, but rather real time.

i used to play this in school.. I swear that some of the graphics were ripped from worms though.

They sorta are, but hey... the gameplay style is certainly unique. Just the fact that it's real time instead of turn based makes it more deathmatchy rather than strategy. Worms 3D is also looking good. From all the previews I read the controls and method of aiming isn't hard at all (some even claim it's easier, esp. with first person camera mode).
