Oooooooooh. This is about as eviscerating a review as I've ever seen the Giz lay down.....Sucks to be the 'Worms' developers.

Have you played Worms 2 Armaggedon for XBLA? It, too, is horrible.

Gripes:

1. "are you still playin'?" the question posed to you exactly .000003 seconds after your turn starts in an annoying cartoon voice.

2. really bad sound quality. I know, im not expecting Mozart here but the game sounds like 1-bit audio.

3. AI grenade throwing will make you yell at your monitor. Play with friends. The AI is a mix of stupidity and jaw-dropping expertise.

So i would say: Skip Worms for any platform but good ol' PC.

I can't imagine trying to control worms with a touchscreen. Hell, I can barely do it with the full keyboard, and can't imagine doing it with an xbox controller. Ahh, the good old days of ninja rope stands...*runs off to reinstall and play worms armageddon*
