@@SylviaYSI I was playing Multiplayer, and I decided to join Team Vanquish non-seriously only to find three people playing. The server grew a little, but instantly died once the game finished.
they really need to port this game to steam, imagine full classic team vanquish lobbies. also being 10 years old i think this games graphics hold up VERY well
Still full lobbies on ps4. PLUS, it goes on sale literally every month for $2 and the second game for $3. It’s still popular and relatively cheap. Great video ❤❤
I honestly forgot how good this game was. The map design was amazing, the gameplay was insanely fun, the whole artstyle of the game was so colorful and vibrant. and the gamemodes were all great. idk maybe im just blinded by nostalgia... It was for sure one of the most fun shooters ive ever played tho.
They should've just added crossplay by now, even though PVZ is based around 360 and PS3 originally, now with Xbox One, PS4/5 and PC having its sales it should just at least get a crossplay feature so the lobbies would be good. They did it properly at the end for Battlefront 2 to add in at least a few bots so you wouldn't be alone. But like come on PVZ should really have more recognition these days especially for this game is like to me a family friendly shooter at most
i grew up with this game for about 6 - 7 years until i got to try GW2 for the first time, and i can say i still prefer this game over GW2 in a handful of aspects, but i can admit it's mostly attachment and the simplicity of it :P
If you can find a cheap copy at a second-hand video game store, absolutely. The best customisations and best maps out of the shooters, and a large variety of characters. Major downfall is lack of replay value, but some people clearly disagree as there's bound to be quite a few familiar faces when you go in a lobby.
I’ve already begun to see some regulars while playing, so that downside isn’t so bad for a few people. Suppose this game is more of an acquired taste than a lot of the others in that sense 😭
I remember playing this game when i was little!!! I really like the taco mode ( i dont remember the name ) as plant you had to protect a taco stand and as zombie you had take tacos ( 3 of them ) and get them to your base.... wait its a capture the flag/protect the flag.... ive never realise it😅😂
First game I ever played still play it to this day mainly for the art style and the dlc characters the art style is what it does better than the others
THIS GAME IS SO FUN I RECOMMEND YOU BUYING IT. Its honestly way better than gw2 and battle for neighborville. The game can sometimes get annoying when theyre try hards using z-4 or the pea silencer. 9/10 game BUY IT
@@SylviaYSI Basically Cheesy Warp is like the Default Warp, but if the Warp passes through someone, it would deal 30 damage. Also you can only have 1 Cheesy Warp on stock.
@@LonelyGamer4 Garden Warfare 2 currently has 4,300 players online, and has a 24 hour peak of 6,319 players (also the all time peak). What misinformation are you talking about?
@@sm3dwplessie765 Are you talking about Steam numbers? GW 2 only came to Steam a couple of years ago. Seems pretty disingenuous to just say the game hit its peak player count without any context.
I got a ps4 two years ago and my firsr thought was playing this game (when it came out i still had a wii) and the game in that one single day was 20 Brazilian dollars (i live in brazil) but because of a discount....THE RAW PRICE WAS 70 BRAZILIAN DOLLARS It's almost like the ps4 KNEW i wanted gw1.
Brother, eu jogava direto o PVZ GW no ps3. Eu comprei o primeiro na promo e o mapa não renderiza no meu pc, tudo está invisível, será que é pq não tenho uma placa de video dedicada?
i would discourage to buy the game, because if something fucks up and you cannot play it anymore, EA will put a nice sweaty peanits in your mouth (best case scenario) and you will basically waste your money
This may be just me, but I don't think it's completely fair to criticize the progression system too much. Considering that the concept of earning in-game currency actually within matches is basically dead
I can vouch for that. When I got the game back in March, I loaded a full game of Gardens & Graveyards. As of recently, I've been unable to play online for some reason.
No you shouldn’t, there are probably only two lobby’s at any time. But GW2 still has people playing it, besides it’s a direct upgrade to the first game anyway.
8 seconds in and I've made my mind already. Buy this game, its just the best one. edit: just finished the video. The points you have made are pretty fair, but I will still support this game to the grave. gw2 is full of so much BS its insane (legendary characters, balancing etc) this games just better for, the charm, the more advanced maps, better balancing and this might be just me but in this game i barely see any hackers, unlike the other 2. GW2 to be exact.
This was my TF2 and in a way GW is the newer TF2 just cuz of how beloved they are and how many similarities they have. Namely with quirky and unique characters with a lot of personality and insane lore and just being weird and silly af. Both are still being played and GW2 still isn’t dead. Prob cuz it takes all the players from GW1 cuz why play the first one when the second is just better
İ disagree on the progression balance, i unlocked everything in the stickerbook and all of the upgrades in just a year not to mention the packs are more rewarding the ones in gw2
I used to play GW1 as a teenager. I just picked up GW2 and wish I had started playing it sooner, because I'm having a blast with it so far. Since I'm on PC and live in Australia, unfortunately I don't have much reason to return to the original, at least not right now. But it'll always be special to me. Amazing mid-air imp punt kill near the end btw. I enjoyed this short and sweet video.
This game is very active on ps3 and ps4. Mostly ps3 I think because of free online I just play on both. I still can’t believe I play this game ever since it came out it’s something you can always come back to and have a lot of fun also nostalgic af. I only really play gardens and graveyards (turf) on PlayStation games are always full I’m not sure about others I remember pc being dead af
Bro i used to play this game in 2016 and 2017 on my ps3. Nowadays i just have two computers. One i3 2120 and other with i5 3k but they both dont have dedicated video card, is onboard, and the i5 doesnt open the game, the i3 open but doesnt load/render the map, should i buy a video card? is the intel graphics the problem? the GUI appears normaly but the map doesnt render so everything is just invisible
Garden warfare one is the best game of the franchise and still my favourite multiplayer shooter. But you cant play it the lobbys are always empty even on pc
no.. they shut down everything so you can only play gops and gw2 is better the only reason why you would by it is for unicorn chomper who is unobtainable
I will have my revenge ark soon ):) (for context i was doing a solo run of ops on hard mode with berry pea. Ans then the dr zomboss spins the thing he gets 3 gargantuar with the sun glasses. You know that ended. And thanks letting me know. Oh ya any tips for killing gargantuar with the sun glasses other then sorta staying away from them)
To answer your question, will it friends on it you still find enjoyment figuring zombies as a bazooka oak tree or a braindead zombie eating veggies........ I'll say yes and play offline mode.......i play battle for neighborhood ville on the switch, which is better imo
My gw1 is bricked idk why I just get an error when I try and join lobbies (Xbox one)btw but it used to be fine.But I can still play ops with other people
How do you get filled lobbies? I wasn't able to be in just one lobby with at least 10 people in it. Vanguish with just me against one other person that was all.

I'd heavily encourage buying this game. Definitely buy it alongside the second game if you are able to
GW1 is great but I fw gw2 much more, I was playing gw2 on Xbox yesterday and got a full lobby pretty fast
Yeah, GW2 has a much more active playerbase, which is understandable for several reasons. I also like it more, but GW is still pretty solid
The best thing about gw1 over gw2 is the art style
It's way cooler
100%
still waiting for pvz gw1 to be released on steam
