If you're reading this Comment: "this video almost made me laugh. better luck next time mewze!"
In this CURSED video, I play and discuss why Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare (PVZ GW) is one of the best shooter games ever made, that everyone forgot existed. Despite this game having 0 players, modes like Gardens and Graveyards and Garden Ops are still really fun. This game includes the characters: Peashooter, Sunflower, Chomper, Cactus, Foot Soldier, Engineer, Scientist and All Star. Not the Engineer from TF2 though. That is a different game. This video essay will make you feel nostalgic, but it's also really funny so you might laugh once or twice.

thinking about this game brings me to tears. its such a hidden gem, it will never grow old to me. i remember, i was 7 years old at the time, got it a month after it released and it was AMAZING. the game still is really fun, but back in the prime time , servers were always packed and it was an amazing experience. i have never been so passionate for a game series in my entire life, plants vs zombies as a whole is truly amazing. i cannot believe what popcap has turned the franchise into in recent years, it genuinely feels like theres a hole in my heart.

I think I remember the Chemist being so overpowered. His shotgun did decent damage (I think kills in 3-4 hits) but the biggest part of the Chemist was that his shotgun COULD NOT miss as long as your crosshairs are somewhat next to the enemy. And Biologist killed in I think 2-3 shots but your shots are much harder to land. The painter turned engineer’s gun into a high damage sniper rifle. Bandit Cactus turned your sniper rifle into an assault rifle. Hot Rod Chomper was my go-to because speed boost after getting a kill was super useful if you’re being stealthy.

[@apache6111]

Garden Warfare will forever be my favourite shooter of all time, it has such a unique personality and style, honestly I never got that hooked with a shooter apart from BO2 which stays far behind from this one, I remember playing countless hours on summer as a teen when GW2 was announced to get the unicorn chomper and I also got very good, what good memories. Now I play GW2 with my sister on pc and actually is pretty alive, more often than not we are in full lobbies, and rarely come across hackers. It's good to still be able to play such an amazing game today

[@trinitroid7893]

The one thing I liked the most about GW2 is the offline capabilities. Sure, you're playing with bots, but they let you customized the teams on both sides, and you can adjust their difficulty to your liking. Plus, it is a kinda good training ground, especially when you realized that the bots are (sometimes) smarter than most players. Also, they still let you earn stuff as if you are playing online. This is more apparent for console owners, since online multiplayer is tied to subscriptions.

[@ThisismineIguess]

it's always really funny to see teenagers growing up and feeling the full bite of "old thing good new thing bad" that they never thought would happen to them. I was (basically) an adult when the Wii came out, myself. Interestingly, this "skin that also makes the character play entirely different" was a concept used in the failed DC MOBA, Infinite Crisis. Each skin was an AU version of the superhero/villain, and each one of them played differently and had completely different roles. It was absolutely, utterly freaking GENIUS. Neat to see they also did that with this game, even though I was too busy with other things and never did get into PvZ. Always kinda cool to see people a good 10+ years younger than me reminiscing like DECREPIT SKELETON PEOPLE

Garden Warfare was the first shooter I've played, all the way since 2014, this is one the best shooters I've played, the variants give it a massive replay value and make all match ups unexpected. The maps have an amazing design. I love how the in the Gardens and Graveyard maps have secret or longer routes that usually leads you to the enemy spawn and pretty much will make stealth and optional and fun if you wanna piss people off. And the game has a rather decent balancing, rarely characters are busted (just Super Commando, Toxic Pea and Future Cactus being SS+). And in this game getting Vanquish Streaks feels more extreme than GW2, and my record is 67, which is where strategy comes in the spotlight. (You got healed un the 50% of your health, and made medics VITAL) I'll say Ranks are the worst thing of this game, in Xbox 360° I was rank 131, and I decimated max rank players by a long shot. Making rank just a mere skin more than a badge to strike fear.

My Xbox is not ina great condition either so I will probably never be able to play on that unless I get another xbox 1 and have someone refurbish the disc if thats even an option.

Miss this game so much. I have never had as much fun in any game in my life.

[@bodom11716]

I didn’t think anyone else liked this game as much as I did; luckily I was wrong. I’ve played my share of shooters back in the day on 360 (max prestige in pretty much every COD, high levels in GOW, Halo, etc), but GW was my favorite of them all. I was ranked about 70 (got my legend of Zelda emblem and refused to rank up higher). From the characters, to the variants, to the gamemodes, to even the soundtrack, this game was nearly perfect. I almost always ran the same 2 variants for whichever side I was on: toxic peashooter when plants, paleontologist (scientist) when zombies. Toxic peashooter not only had great splashdamage, but also started poisoning zombies when close to them. Paleontologist was my secret weapon no one knew about. Def the most OP variant in the game. Had the typical close range high damage shotgun attack, but also the bullets had unlimited range, so it acted as a sniper. Best of both worlds. Oh yea and the bullets were made of molten lava, so enemies would catch fire when you shot them. For whatever reason so few people used it, which is great for me. I hated going up against paleontologists. Gardens and Graveyards was the best mode by far. The unique maps and objectives were so fun and never got old. When I needed a break from multiplayer, Garden Ops was also such a fun mode to play with friends. I think the reason GW wasn’t as popular as it could have been was 2-fold: 1. People associated PvZ with the 2D original game and didn’t want to give this FPS version a chance, and 2. With how animated it looked and the vibrant colors, people just assumed it was a game for kids (which it was in a way but still so fun regardless). I don’t play video games anymore and have no desire to start again, but this is the one game I actually miss.

[@DaiKo-qv1jz]

I have 4300 hours on PVZ Garden warfare and probably more on garden warfare 2. This game was everything to me. so happy to see others still enjoying it.

[@DukesGuard]

And sometimes with the wallnut, there is a low chance that if the zombie eats it, he dies because of peanut allergies, which is interesting, but in real life, your cheeks would puff up alongside some other things, but still a cool interesting detail.

[@Blank-ow4wq]

I just remember the time when I was child and playing this game on my Xbox with no stress and all enjoyment of and when I see this video it create an undefined nostalgia on my mind... we are going to be adults and we have to accept that nothing will be same with old good times. But for all of the emotions which I feel because of this video, its definitely deserves a like from all of child who played this game in their lives.

[@playerioik6101]

Gardens & Graveyards play mode is like Invasion mode in Halo Reach: The multiplayer experience all need to play. I remember being Soldier main or the Sniper version and for the plants, I was the vampire version of the carnivorous plant, future cactus, or 007 pea (almost always first in eliminations 3+ Kill ratio in general jejej) delicious moments, delightful moments...happy moments

[@martini7845]

i remember playing the first game back in middle school and i was GRINDING the hell out of this game just to open the cardd packs. when the second game came out i was so disappointed to see how much less people were playing and the lobbies were never full. I wish the game was more popular because the characters had such creative abilities and the chaos made every game refreshing. One of the best games on the xbox 360

[@kadekid44]

I miss this game so much. I used to play this game a lot, and got really good at it. But because of life problems, I haven’t touched this game in years, but it still holds the best fond memories I still have to this day( second to Minecraft). Like I could go on rants ONLY talking an about this game for hours at a time while I was walking home or alone by myself. In my opinion it’s the best game I’ve ever played and still is. The second game just does not hold the expectations that used to have for the first game. I also almost unlocked all of the characters but that’s when I stoped playing altogether( if you want an example, I unlocked every character except the fire type for scientist) . But my point still stands.I haven’t played this game is years. But I still talk about this game to this day! Maybe because I just have so many fond memories that just make me smile, laugh and just reminiscence about the good times while I was growing up. But this game will forever hold a special place in my heart.

[@aaronzaffiro]

I think what they did well with this game was, it’s a shooter. But It’s PVZ. It’s funny and they weren’t afraid for be silly and add CRAZY overpower random moves that seem so unfair everytime you’re on the other team. They didn’t focus on the shooter part but really just made it fun.

[@fermit_thekrog1720]

On ps4 there was this ‘Community’ Feature which allowed for you to find Servers in Games if Someone was playing and allowed for you to join which was Major for pvz gw as it allowed for quick Server Access but as soon as they had removed the community Features plants vs zombies died and I have not been able to play it again.

[@pacocheung1864]

Just like GW2, the community goals have been reached for this video, now waiting for that garden warfare 2 video (with added man killing)

[@carterjackson4213]

I want more people to start playing this game it's too good to go away

[@otamatonefan8996]

Tbh the best part of boss mode was squabbling with the other boss mode player, dropping bombs ONTO their blimp/van, and being able to influence the match enough in important spots that it became a air-to-ground and ground-to-air mess, with players simultaneously shooting at us in the air or killing players that shoot at us. But yeah, it is super simple looking..

[@semisolidsnake7103]

Me and this one dude were both Cheeto Chomper, and became Xbox friends immediately. Such a good time

[@tsc6543]

oh wowzers! this game looks absolutely flipping fantastic! i love video games and i love you

[@Maddie_DaGoat-uc3cc]

This is the first garden warfare game I played and still play till this day just cuz of how fun it is to play when you find a match with people it’s brings back the nostalgia

[@buzzzcutt3413]

I've been playing this game since 2016 and I fuking love it. Here I am in 10th grade being thought of as goofy playing pvz gw1. It's so fun. Thanks for the vid man, it's nice knowing that I'm not the only one who loves chill and old games like this. Now make a video on GW2, and at the end say that Battle for Neighborville pretty much sucks.

[@heyitsnighty9119]

Been playing this game on and off since it came out, so much fun to just play a match or two every now and then, you never feel like you need to keep up with a meta or play a lot to be good

[@_Senatorarmstrong]

If you get the remastered edition on ea play you can find a bunch of people still playing to this day.

[@SuccubusStrikerUnofficial]

"oh wowzerz! this looks absalutely flippin fantastic! i love this game and i love you"

[@Xxxwwwwx]

The beauty about this game was that getting kills with every character was satisfying

[@galaxy_man7759]

I love pvz garden warfare, I played it on a friends pc and I think I got him every character or maybe that was garden warfare 2 and I dont like pvz battle for neighborville because there is a smaller playstyle, I love how there are different subtypes of plants like fire peashooter and others.

[@kimbaldun]

I love how this video went from Documentary to Rankings to Showcasing to Gameplays to Trashtalks

[@FlairRound]

i remember playing this game back in 2016 with one of my school friends at his house. i only got to experience playing it maybe once or twice, but it was a blast and is something i remember to this day.
