After successfully making its presence known on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, Apple's App Store, and Steam for PC, Worms has been revived. Team17 Software may tell us "don't call it a comeback, I never left", and indeed we have never been without a great Worms title.
Today word has come that Worms will be on the market for licensees through AT New Media for expanding the market of Worms products beyond just video games."
Dave writes: "Being a bit of an old-timer, I remember the launch of Worms. As an owner of an Atari ST, I’d read all of the Amiga magazines simply because games would hit the Amiga first, and our team would get them in due course. There’d be a tinge of envy as I’d make a wishlist of the games to get when they arrived on the ST, and I remember Worms being one of them."
"Team 17 and Evercade are today very proud and excited to announce that the "Worms Collection 1” pack (which includes "Worms", "Worms Armageddon", and "Worms Blast") is coming to the Evercade console in May 2021" - Jonas Ek, TGG.
It looks great although it does have one fundamental flaw - the Evercade is a single player machine and the Worms games are best played in multiplayer.
Having said that, I guess as players tend it in turns you'd just pass the machine around each player
Some Video Game franchises have weapons that are imaginative, unconventional and downright bizarre. This is a good thing. Join us as we investigate nine of the best.
I'm surprised Ratchet & Clank wasn't on the list. Late Saint's Row games, with more imaginative weapons like the Shark gun and the armchair with guns would fit on a part two list as well
I'm not familiar with Ratchet and Clank (not my sort of game) but I'll add it to the list for part two along with Saint's Row. Thanks for the suggestions :-)
look up resistance fall of man from insomniac as well. there were some interesting weapons for that too
@phoenix
Resistance series 100%. Especially the secondary fires. Auger shields, Bullseye tags, Magnum detonator, Rossmore incindiary, then throw a Hedgehog for good measure. By the time I got to R3 they were onto Atomizers and Mutators. Armory speaks for itself.
Thank you to everyone for your excellent suggestions. They have all been added to the list for part two which should be published by the end of the month :-)
Worms is bad ass I've always been a fan!

I need to play worms at some point for real, I thought it was like lemmings but it doesn't seem so
i never got into worms, wasn't my style but still i should check it out that's what gamers do so good video homey
I had worms once. It was awesome fun!
