No Worms HD in sight yet

Oh, snap. - Image 1Team 17 announced through the forums that the release date for Worms on Xbox Live Arcade is still "vague" at the moment. Still being certified. Sorry, guys, we here have been itching to torture some garden-variety creepy crawlers, too. Well, that scratches this XBL Wednesday as Emergence Day for the worms (hey, worms emerge from the ground, the description's accurate). All other XBL Wednesdays are still up in the air.

Team 17 also took the time to explain the weight of the content Worms will come in. Because it's still sticking to the 50MB max target of Arcade, it could not fit all it would have wanted to fit in those given bounds (as a comparison, the PSP Worms holds 800MB of data). Team 17 is making up for it by making the other content downloadable for free (yes, it said for free, so we'll hold the company to that), although there will be premium content available at a price...

OPEN LETER TO TEAM 17: Please keep the Holy Hand Grenade for free (or in the game engine, for that matter), and not as a premium-priced article of war. It would be so sad to see a classic Monty Python reference missing in action from the game for want of a couple of hundred Microsoft Points.

Maybe it's time Microsoft tear the 50MB ceiling out.

Oh God, I can't wait for this any longer. I bought a second Xbox while mine was being repaired just incase this came out while I didn't have my Xbox.

Not True!

The PSP Game have almots 100mb without videos anda 200 with them.

But its amazing if that 360 version is more smaller.
