Team 17 loves using Facebook to announce stuff and the release date for Worms 2: Armageddon is no exception. The slimy critters will be bringing along their favorite WMDs to the XBLM on July 1 and they're yours for 800
($10). Terrifyingly, Team 17's announcement note also reminds us that the original Worms: Armageddon came out 10 years ago (we remember playing the original Worms on our 386s even longer ago). This version has been expanded with extra features, weapons and levels. You can see the full list of improvements over at Team 17's Facebook page.

Best One IMO. Was pondering this week spending 400 point on Worms 1. Glad I Waited.

Isn't Worms Armageddon actually the third Worms game? I played the crap out of Armageddon...

Going off memory alone, I think it goes: Worms, Worms 2, Worms: Armageddon, Worms World Party. I played a lot of W2 and WWP, but I think I skipped over WA.

Amazing! First day purchase!

I hope that this game can live up to what it was years ago on the PC. I was extremely disappointed with the Last XBLA Worms game, as I had been expecting it to be more like Worms Armageddon.

Why do I have to be broke NOW?!
With MVC2 and an Armageddon remake hitting my systems next week I will have to wait seeing as I'm totally broke.
It will be very worth it though.

Is MVC2 coming out end of June or end of July? I've heard both.
kaion @ Jun 25th 2009 1:08AM
wow i was expecting a release date farther from the announced date than this but hell yea
psychohog @ Jun 26th 2009 12:04PM
Yeah, the last release date I had seen was September 30th. This is damn good news!

I hope the roping is good and parachute to roping is easy. I'm trying it out before I buy.

"we remember playing the original Worms on our 386s even longer ago" - The original Worm game was developed and released on the Commodore Amiga.
Boff @ Jun 25th 2009 4:31AM
Yep - Team17 were a pretty big name in the Amiga days too.
Ah, good times...

So why couldn't there just an exp. to the first XBLA worms game? I didn't buy the first one but its lame that if you did as this is the one you would want. Have to spend extra money for the same game, just all the extra stuff that it should have been off the bat =(.
