Worms attack Euro PSN this Easter

"Expanded and honed" version dated for Euro PS Store
UK PS3 owners will be able to download an "extended and honed" version of the (still brilliant) Worms that hit Xbox Live years ago.

Team Worms, also known as Team17, has spent the extra time adding a bunch of new features and improvements to the age-old classic for PS gamers.

"This expanded and honed edition features additional retro-styled landscapes, a wide array of team voices, additional graphic features & effects, a much more responsive physics engine, 1080p support and four additional weapons including the much loved Holy Hand Grenade, Super Sheep and Concrete Donkey," it explains.

It's on the US PS Store already for $12.99, and will hit our store "over Easter" for £7.99. 36 screens of the PS3 version are below. That enough for you?

the voices in this game are ****ing wank.

incoming hehehe.

retarded sheep bombs and all this.

Worms is one of the best multiplayer games there has ever been. still have a go on the 360 version when i've got a few mates round and some beers in. the game is just ****in hilarious.
your taste in games really must suck if all you can moan about is the voices and weapon selection.
Posted by svd_grasshopper
the weapons are central to the game. they are shite. not only that every time you fire one you get they ****in squeeky bentshot voices giggling at you.

this game is for 8 year olds.

to say WORMS is the best multiplayer game out there is retarded...

since it a carbon copy of many games before it. atari games probably.

look at death tank. no fancy visuals or gimmicks - ten times better than worms.

the people that laugh at sheep bombs are the ***** that sit down and play monopoly with all the family for a fun filled time. tossers :evil:

Am I right in thinking this is online?
Posted by svd_grasshopper
obviously.

for once there will be more annoying sounds from the actual game than from the fannys with headsets.
Posted by only_777
Correct!
Posted by only_777
The weapons are fine there is a weapon for every direction and type of attack. On what are you judging them on for being 'shite'?


Wrong again. I doubt many 8 year olds could fully realise the depth and statagey that Worms offers. If you are making that statment based on the games graphics and sound you need to lighten up as its only comedy. If you were around for the days of british made Atari ST/Spectrum you would probably 'get' this sort of tounge in cheek humour.


Actually to make that statment is retarded, becuase its a matter of opinion of what games people like the best. Just becuase you have a different opinion to someone elce dosnt mean either party is wrong, it just means its different. Dont be so arogant to think that your taste in games is the best, as there is no best.


The only one that springs to mind is Scorched Earth ( http://blogs.msdn.com/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2005/06/29/433694.aspx ) on the PC which helps me make a mockery of your next statment...


Although I do like Death Tank Zwei on the Sega Saturn, I dont see why you like it as it is pretty much a carbon copy of Scorched Earth. look: Death Tank ( http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2008/08/deathtank490.jpg ) Scorched Earth ( http://ben.bacchus.com.au/vpcblog/images/scorchedearth1.PNG )

Go home little boy, dont comment on things you dont know about! :twisted:

I've never been much of a fan of paying for downloadable content on anything, whether it's game add-ons, mini games, or re-released old games, but this I am getting! I love worms =)
Posted by Slacher007
I loved scorched earth. but i love playing worms more. it takes the seriousness out of strategy games like this (can you class it as one dimensional or two)
Posted by AJDarkstar
With Worms 2: Armageddon already announced, however, I think I shall save my pennies....
Posted by svd_grasshopper
the weapons are shite on the basis they are sheep and bananas. tee hee.

if thats what gets you off carry on.

death tank has probably the same weapons. cluster bombs and air strikes etc. but they didnt feel the need to turn them into childish objects complete with pathetic sound effects.
