    I'm giving gnome bomb a 0. It is the most broken game mode ever made. Instant plant? Why?! Then it takes about 9 seconds to defuse while everybody and there mother spam there explosives on the bomb almost making it impossible to defuse. Very poor choice.

    The first PvZ was great but this edition is a joke. You spent 40$ and now, 2 months after the release, EA is showing it's true face again and added Micro-transaction into the game. EA is ripping everyone off again. You should avoid this game for good.

    I actually got a refund for my game.

EA, you have really bombed with this one. The game seems unfinished in some areas, and there were so few players, I literally couldn't even get into a match that had more than 1 or 2 other people in it when I went online. What a shame, because this was one game I was really looking forward to after a recent boring game release season.… Expand

    I just accidentally purchased plants vs zombies for my kids on he 360, accidentally because I didn't realize it was EA. micro transactions all over the place, cant play unless you sign up for Origin and everyone's mic is on with no option to turn it off globally, have to manually mute everyone when the game starts. Deleted!

    This game is quite fun and enjoyable ... The reason i gave it a 1 is because i get 0 play time ... the only way i can get on to one of the servers is if i happen to join a match with nobody in it. So overall this game is not worth your time.

    Im a PC user , and i have tried changing the ports as well as allowing firewall access to the game. DO NOT BUY

    Pas vraiment de mode solo pour ce FPS qui mise avant tout sur la coopération multi-joueuse à kévins et son univers en 256 couleurs enfantin et stupide à même de séduire aussi bien toute la cour de récré que quelques adulescents qui n’ont pas fini de grandir dans leur tête (des attardés).

    Sur Xbox One, le jeu est d’une remarquable fluidité, encore heureux vu ce qu’il affiche et vu sa tronche de jeu indé mal dégrossi du pauvre ; les effets sonores crétins participent aussi à leur façon à cette ambiance à la Casimir… Dommage qu’on ne puisse pas jouer Dorothée.

    Vite limitées et répétitives, on se lasse très rapidement de ces défenses de base comme on se lasse de jouer avec des gamins qui hurlent dans le micro entre autres abrutis. Encore une « perle » à tendance d’étron indé qu’on planquera en hâte sous le tapis dans le placard, vu son intérêt très inférieur ou égal à zéro.    … Expand

    Nothing like previous incarnations. Current version is more like a first person shooter which is ridiculous because plants by their nature don't run and jump. Also, all plants must now be offensive because of the fps aspect. Previously there was a wider range of options with more strategy.

Furthermore it has lots of pay to play options which doesn't provide a level playing ground unless you drop some cash. This game is no longer fun and nothing like it used to be. If you want this type of game play there are plenty of other options that do it much better. Also, multiplayer is no fun as the connection is frequently aborted and the match-ups are uneven.… Expand

    With a variety of interesting characters and well-balanced gameplay, Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare should have been a perfect entry-level team-based FPS, letting younger and more casual audiences learn about the fun of meeting others online and shooting them in the face. Sadly, the frustrating unlock system puts a damper on that, and it never manages to make players feel rewarded for playing.

    Thoroughly and unexpectedly wonderful. [Issue#146, p.102]

    Like homemade fertiliser, it does the job, but not like the proper stuff. Also, it whiffs a bit. [May 2014, p.67]
