Many Xbox 360 gamers were frustrated by the news that there wasn't going to be an Xbox Live Arcade release this week, and Team 17's head honcho Martyn Brown assures everyone the frustration is mutual. Speaking to Eurogamer, Brown explained that while Worms has been on the verge of release twice now, it can't seem to clear the bar set by Microsoft.
"Worms is one of the 'richer' XBLA experiences in that it'll provide hours and hours of repeat play through it's on and offline multiplayer modes. Unfortunately that's meant a hell of a lot of testing and also re-submissions on what we felt were final builds.
Dammit, I needs me some Xbox Live Worms action. Games involving angles and trajectory have been a love of mine since Scorched Earth on the PC. I might not be able to play fighting games worth a damn, and maybe I spend more time spawning that shooting in most FPS titles, but damn if I can't calculate firing angle and power while accounting for wind speed variations, parabolical style. Hopefully they'll get everything ironed out and we can have a release date a bit more accurate than 'soonish'.
