The original Live Arcade game was popular. Worms Armagedon was popular in its time. So hopefully, if this is ported right, Armageddon decades will be great too!
No wormy gimmicks and 8 worms a team please!

That's true, i suppose. But I'd still like the option...
Anyway, I really hope this might get them thinking about another 3D one like Forts for the current generation.
In fact, the Wii remote would be great for some weapons, they could have an aim into the screen weapon and a coke can or something that you need to shake to work.

I like the time-limits when playing as I always know it'll be my turn soon. The last minute acts of desperation, as Edgy mentioned, are absolutely hilarious. As are the "accidently pressing fire instead of jump/weapon select etc, whilst using the bazooka" or the "lets throw a banana bomb over that ledge and *&^!£ I've made it rebound towards me" bits that appear throughout the game!
The Wii game felt even more limited than the XBLA game!
The option to turn off time limits would work great in a console version, and would be great as an option if not over-used on PC versions - but I did like the desperate acts to fire a rocket on time resulting in hilarity and calamity.
I've had great online games on Worms Forts on the Xbox.
