While I first played the original Worms back when I was in high school, I never really got into it until I played Worms Armageddon and Worms World Party in college. More recently, I purchased Worms 2: Armageddon for XBLA. It brought back a lot of memories, although I did learn one important lesson from playing it: I can't ninja rope for shit with a d-pad. Enter Worms Reloaded, the upcoming PC installment of the series that'll initially be released on Steam on August 26th (although I assume that people who pre-purchase it will actually get to play on the 25th).
I've already pre-purchased it. I mean, what's not to love? It'll be awesome enough playing a new Worms game with keyboard and mouse support. Better still, I won't need to leave the damn disc in the disc tray this time around. (Sure, that's a minor gripe, but it was ridiculous when you consider the fact that the games didn't install the vast majority of the game's audio to your hard drive.) I'm really looking forward to getting back into the swing of things (literally) by honing my ninja rope skills, as well as better adapting myself to the new weapons without making mistakes due to the awkward controls of the XBLA installment.

Worms is the shit yo.
As a Brit, I'm getting ripped off by Steam prices, so I'm looking for a Yank who's willing to buy a 4-pack for me and some bros. I could save almost 50% doing that.
But yeah, I am hoping this won't be some shitty-ass console port which was gimped up already then not quite ungimped.
" Worms is the shit yo.How much does it cost for you?

I'm a long time Worms Fan, and I don't have a Worms game on my computer, so I may pick this up. Additionally, I hope that SteamWorks will deal with some of the problems I had with players on Worms in the past who were jerks (using racist language, etc.)
" @NukeSpoon said:If I were to buy it myself by itself it would be £16." Worms is the shit yo.How much does it cost for you? "

If I got someone from the States to buy it for me in a 4-pack, it would be £9.
