Quick Look: Worms Ultimate Mayhem

I miss the original Worms.

How many Worms games are out there. They should take a long break.

Worms!?!

So is this just Worms 4 again minus the 4?

This is simply mayhem.

Grrr

That seems to be the case.

Worms 3D again? I'll stick with Worms: Armageddon.

SNAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!

For those complaining about FPS remakes of your old favorites...this is the other end of the spectrum. They've been making the same fucking game since the first one.

Team 17 should make another Superfrog game, just 'cause.

Silly rcath....

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMS!

That worm said SHORYUKEN! WTH

Anyone remember Pigs of War? That was a cool game.

I submit this as a nomination for "Series that should take a break"

That's been around for a loooong time haha! It's amazing!!

That teleporter was really useful.

For some reason this game just reminds me of this trope http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AnimationAgeGhetto

I like how most of the worms have feminine names. I've heard of a few guys with the name Carol .. but they lost me at Gail. Yes, this is coming from a guy named Donna Gust.

Never played a Worms game. I will continue not playing Worms games.

Worms creep me out :(

What the fuck, that menu looks exactly like the one from Worms 4. I knew it!

This game kind of makes me sick.

These later games are so painful to watch. On behalf of my country I hope Team17 are remembered fondly for their past work but that they swiftly forget their now extremely exhausted franchises and put them to bed [out to die]. Come on guys, you're embarrassing yourselves, drop the bad habits at last and do something new.

As for the voices, totally agree. I know they're small creatures but why the same badly made feminine accents for each worm for every game?! The only exception is the first ever game when the voices were classic and the music was also excellent. Bring them back as DLC or something because the new ones do my head in too. Note that the default voices are the squeaky ones (slightly better than these actually) but that there were other much better custom ones in there too.

What's the definition of insanity Team 17?

I'm glad Jeff enjoys shattering toilets as much as I do.

There's so many weird, dumb design decisions in Worms that should have been changed years ago. But they just stick to it. Worms, you guys!

Enough with the Worms games, Team17! You can only rehash the same shit so many times.

I've played one of the 3D worms, it wasn't very fun.

Now I only ever played the demo (I did play it a lot though), but Hogs of War seemed like a much better 3D worms game than 3D worms ended up being.

The pace of the 3D worms games is so painfully slow. The 2D games would work great as iOS games, I'm sure there are some, but I won't be arsed to check.

Filming a quick look without the knowledge of basic controls. Nice going

You mean Hogs of War? and yes.

I enjoy turn-based combat games but have never been interested in the Worms games. They just seem so pedestrian and boring. I was curious to see if they were at least trying something new with this one but it doesn't seem that way. I'm amazed that Team 17 are somehow still going after all these years.

Yep, looks like it plays just as bad as I remember it from Worms 3D. Worms and 3D is just a terrible combination.

Team17 dropped the ball with Worms: Reloaded, previous 3D games might not have been stellar but it had so many issues and dumb design choices they never looked back at again. I used to love me some Worms but eh.

Like all 3D Worms games, this looks like rubbish.

I... liked Worms 3D on the GC. I don't get the hate for it. 

This makes me want to play some old worms.

The physics was always a little crap on the 3D Worms games. Same here, it seems, the dynamite or baseball bat just knock a worm a few feet.

Worms Armageddon is the only Worms for me.

The helium filled world of Worms. Ugh....

I honestly think a good 3D Worms game is possible, but this isn't that game. It wasn't when it first came out, and a new coat of paint isn't going to change that.

Everybody is complaining about this game's bad shot cameras, they really need to fix it.

That was certainly the direction Worms should have taken. Make it faster, snazzier graphics and a little more complex!

Just wanted to say how much I loved the 'Dunstan' reference!

I wonder what Worms would be like running off the Frostbite 2 engine? Lets get some real destruction! :D

Make actually NEW Worms game? LOLS! That aint how Team 17 rolls

HI JEFF!

Played the demo seems fun. Had some great times with worms games. The min-map seems useful. Glad they figured out the aim thing. There is also a top down view.

EDIT: Did that guy in the diner sound like a high-pitched Jason Statham to anyone else?

I liked Worms 3D.

I might just go back and fight my old copy of Worms now. Man, that was a great game.

Whatever this is... not so much.
