The first, the "Space" landscape seen above, is a freebie, but you'll have to drop 150 points ($1.87) for each of the other two: "Hell" and "Jungle." If you need to recover from all the spending of points, there's one more bit of free content: Twenty-two new packs of worm voices have been added. And yes, they include "Russian" and "DoubleOhSeven" meaning you can finally pit James Bond against Teddy KGB in the Worms arena ... the way God intended.

BO-RING. Blah, I want a new game, not more crap for a game I don't even play. Ah well, that's OK. It's been a good month for XBLA otherwise.

More weapons... thats all it needs...

Wooo! I love Worms!
"I'm a jungle!"

This game is a party staple at my house. So having new environments rocks but yeah, more levels.

konajinx - It's obvious you're not a fan of Worms. For those of us that are, seeing this pack is a GODSEND. One of the best parts of Worms is being able to customize your team with wacky flags/art/voices.

Worms is a great game, but it definitely needs more content. Weapon packs would be great, and more ability to visually customize your worms. Even an option to color-tint the worms would be great.
Some scenario-based levels would be cool, too. A "capture the X" or "destroy the X" gametype would really spice things up.
Worms is easily one of the best local multiplayer games I've ever played. It's easy to play with a lot of potential depth and wonderful opportunities for showboating. Good stuff, but more is better.

It's hard to argue against additional free content being made for a $10 game. A lot of full-titles seem to get axed with no extra content beyond icons, so I consider it a nice thing.

konajinx, we are getting a new game tomorrow as well.

Is it more like a Sean Connery bond voice? If it's not well that's dumb. I want my worms speeching like sean connery not a normal british spy. I think they should put a voice in there that sounds like Mr.T or Schultz from Hogan's Heros. "I KNOW NOTHIING!"

I was going to say sweet but then I looked at the pic closely and then read "Hell" and "Jungle". I've played this already on the PSP version.

@5,
You're right, I'm not a fan. I bought the game with all the hype surrounding its release on XBLA (I know, should have d/l'd the demo first, but it wasn't that much and I thought maybe I would dig it), and just couldn't get into it. More power to the fans who love it. Just not my thing.
@7,
Yeah I just saw that in regards to the new post here. Danke.

Why not just play Gunbound? Much better and much freer.
Sean @ May 29th 2007 11:56PM
levels? like the ones you could make for free on the PC versions? yeah, f--- that.
Obi-Habby @ May 30th 2007 10:22AM
Gunbound is my guilty pleasure. If you love Worms and you want to try a team based variant check it out on the PC. Upgrading your stats with armor and items just makes shooting a bazooka that much more fun.
And I almost forgot. It’s FREE!
