Worms 2, Galactrix half-off at Amazon [update]

December 3rd, 2009 at 03:15pm Under Xbox 360

Update: As some commenters have pointed out, it looks like the deals are no longer available. We hope you managed to snag one.

We bet you were really hoping to not spend an extra five dollars today. We’re sure you thought to yourself that you’ve got plenty of games to play and, honestly, what could you buy with five bucks anyway? The answer: Worms 2: Armageddon on Xbox Live Arcade. The good people at CheapCollegeGamers have uncovered a pair of great deals on Amazon. First and foremost, Worms 2 is available for a paltry $5, fifty percent off the usual $10 price tag. If you don’t have it already, it would be crazy not to buy it at that price.

Amazon is also offering Puzzle Quest: Galactrix at a discounted price of $10, half of the normal $20 cost. Granted, it’s not quite as easy to recommend Galactrix as Worms 2, but $10 is a much more palatable price. Now go buy Worms 2.

Worms 2 gets patched up on XBLA

November 20th, 2009 at 04:45pm Under Xbox 360

We’ve all felt the pain of pressing the jump button a second time just barely too late in a game of Worms 2, sending a brave worm soldier free falling off the side of a mountain or, worse yet, into the watery depths below. Recognizing that the game might have some issues – and rather than simply calling us “newbs” like most people do – Worms 2 developers Team17 have just released a patch aimed at ailing all that is wrong with the adorable multiplayer strategy games.

Listing everything from “Back flip input slowed down to stop incorrect jumps harming the player” to “Fixed bug which made crates in Forts matches only land on the right hand side,” as well as a slurry of other fixes, Team17 seems to have given the nearly five-month-old release a full overhaul. An overhaul that’ll perhaps feel all the more worthwhile when the developers make good on next year’s DLC for the game. In the meantime, we’ll be over here waiting for you with a Buffalo of Lies.

Another twofer this week, as XBLA adds a fighting game and a turn-based strategy game to its ever-growing ranks. From SNK’s huge library of fighting games, we have King of Fighters ‘98 Ultimate Match. The XBLA version includes online play and will set you back 800 ($10). Meanwhile, Team17 has dropped the sequel to the XBLA version of Worms, which is titled, appropriately enough, Worms 2: Armageddon. The game brings lots of new features to the table — as well as some old favorites — and also costs 800 ($10).

Watch the latest episode of XBLA in Brief and see which one is screaming for your hard-earned cash.

This Wednesday: Worms 2: Armageddon, King of Fighters ‘98 Ultimate Match attack XBLA

June 29th, 2009 at 05:15pm Under Xbox 360

XBLA is dropping a holy hand grenade’s worth of violence this week with Worms 2: Armageddon and King of Fighters ‘98 Ultimate Match. Whether you’re into vertebrate or spineless carnage, the entry fee to these glorious celebrations of hurt will cost 800 ($10) apiece.

Armageddon brings some upgrades to the original Worms XBLA title, so definitely check it out if you’re a fan of the series. As for KOF98, the game is about $10 cheaper than the PS2 release, and does support online play — but there’s never a guarantee on how that’ll go.

Worms 2: Armageddon hitting XBLM on July 1

June 24th, 2009 at 10:00pm Under Xbox 360

Team 17 loves using Facebook to announce stuff and the release date for Worms 2: Armageddon is no exception. The slimy critters will be bringing along their favorite WMDs to the XBLM on July 1 and they’re yours for 800 ($10). Terrifyingly, Team 17’s announcement note also reminds us that the original Worms: Armageddon came out 10 years ago (we remember playing the original Worms on our 386s even longer ago). This version has been expanded with extra features, weapons and levels. You can see the full list of improvements over at Team 17’s Facebook page.
