My Life, It Is Complete

just hope they don’t half-ass it again. The first DS game is an awful abortion of a Worms clone and one that should have been killed before release. Movement was wrong, the weapons were weak and hard to use. The interface was unspeakably awful. And there was no humour or heart in it.

The 360 Worms is better… I’ve played it some. The movement and action feel right, and are intuitive again. But the game lacks something. A level of zaniness is missing. You can’t create massive chains of unpredictable destruction nearly as easily. Stuff blows up, but doesn’t cascade. It’s fun, but not addictive.

They haven’t quite got the formula right since they started messing around with 3D. Everything got too rigid.
