"We Are Worms We're The Best And We've Come To Win The War!"

F Zero is fantastic and brilliant fast gameplay. The Simpsons: Hit and Run is a great GTA alternative, not as good but still has that fun essence in it...

But Worms 3D. Well it played like Worms... it even looked like Worms. In fact it's a faithful Worms convertion into 3D...

But...

Where's the music?

Replacing the tradition tune I had been humming since I played it at the ECTS with Junior Senior is blasphemy! And I searched... I played many challenges, a few deathmatches as well as part of the campaign... Nothing.

The traditonal music was gone. I started listening to the credits and that was some jazzed up nothing. Well I lay there with the Credits rolling and I heared a voice talk about the Worms War... and as I listend the Worms began to sing:

"We Are Worms We're The Best And We've Come To Win The War!"

Hang on, I thought, I recognise that tune!

Best Game Ever :P

There is certainly room for upgrades on this game but... it's got the raw gameplay essence that TEam 17 needed to find.

They were incredible!

Yeah, has anyone completed the 1 player on the 2nd official demo yet. It's bloody impossible.

I've got the Xbox version now :D

Boggy B and Spadge (and his nephew if my memory serves me right) all get a mention :D

Did Worms United mess up everyone's computer with that FMV video bug?


Back to the topic, I liked Worm's United's style the best. The red stamp logo, the music, the "secret files" interface and the general look of the game.

I did like Worms 2's more slapstick visuals but not as much as the old style. I was hoping Worms 3D would look like the FMV sequences on the original! :-)

I haven't played much of it but seval Worms are mentioned in the song and that certainly rings a bell.

Just installing a demo I found on the T17 website.



Just played the demo... worked fine for me!

I'm suprised an 'old dos' emulator hasn't popped up anywhere yet.

I can't imagine it being too hard for someone who knows what they're doing to make - but then again - what do I know...

I've tried all I can think of - except for partitioning the hard drive and sticking Windows 95 on the partition - if I had a Windows XP disc, I'd do it, but because Windows XP was preloaded onto my computer, I didn't get a disc with it.

You'll be pleased to know that Worms 3D is still launched from a DOS screen... ;)

Hmm... I'll have to give this some though, thought it would help if I could actually find the game.

It doesn't - tried every single combination with reguards to the Windows version, screen resolution, colour mode and the 'disable visualisations' mode.

Team17 just say there's no support for it and XP and I can't find a patch for it anywhere.

Tis because the original Worms is DOS based - and one of the few DOS based games that just wont run.
