Worms 2: Armageddon is not a sequel to Worms Armageddon, it's a combination of Worms 2 and Worms: Armageddon, i Saw so in one of Spaget17 (Team 17's Youtube, I believe) youtube videos.
@ShoopDaBoofs: ok I've only played a few times and had no idea which game(s) as it was years ago at a friends house. I hear this is one of the best, so I reckon I'll be picking it up.
I would get this, but there's going to be a PSN version later and I really don't have the HDD space on my 360 to fit a game I'm just going to download again later on another console.
@Komrade Kayce - Hero of Soviet Kotaku: I just bought a dozen XBLA games a couple of days ago on eBay. :^) I'm enjoying Ticket to Ride far, far more than the demo play made me think I would.
I already told Curse_Lily that I was the Prince of Nigeria. I am a reputable person. Just give me your banking information, SSN, home address and photocopy of birth certificate (to certify that I am taking money from the right person) and I will take care of the rest.
@liquid_kore: Yes, significantly cheaper with discounts anywhere from $4-12US. Considering we're talking about games which run $10-20, that's not bad and adds up pretty fast. The discounted XBLA games are cheap enough to the point where I'm actually contemplating picking up GunShift for $6 even though I know I'd never play it beyond the initial test.
@eastx: @Kobun: Damn I just checked it out, those codes don't work in Canada. And the one and only Canadian code for sale isn't discounted at all. You Americans and your economy and special codes.... that does it! From now on you guys cant have our Bacon or Maple Syrup.
As dumb as I think that stupid Left 4 Dead 2 boycott is, I can't help but wish Worms Armageddon would be released via DLC as it is on PS3 because I just get the feeling this will split the market and make it more difficult to get a game going on-line. I suppose one could say that DLC would still split an audience among haves and have nots, but at least you'd see people in the lobbies which would encourage the on-line community to keep going. Worms is still a top ten seller on XBLA at $5, and I don't think too many will look to upgrade to Armageddon for what I'd assume to be double the price.
Is there any real reason to buy this after the first game? I mean, I've played numerous Worms games, but I couldn't tell you which was which because they all pretty much blend together for me, except those weird 3D ones, and even then all the 3D ones blend together.
@Busting makes Mister Jack feel good: All the 2d ones are exactly the same (except for that shameful Gameboy one) If you have worms 1, save your money. They are all identical.
@Slagathorian: Shows how much you actually know about Worms.
@Busting makes Mister Jack feel good: Armageddon had one of the largest selections of weapons and secrets and unlockables of the whole series. While the game-play at the core is the same as any other in the series, there was a lot more to DO in the game. At least in the original PC release, and especially on the single player.

Is the 2 meant to signify that this is a blend of the two games?

Really? I always had an eye on that one but critics reviews scared me off.
I'm a big fan of the slower paced card and board games on XBLA. Maybe I'll give the demo a try.
