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.

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.

Xbox Live sure can, Master Chief, as your game Halo 3 was once again the most played title on Xbox Live. For the week ending June 29, many gamers took to the floating rings in space for some first-person combat, knocking down the duo of Call of Duty: World at War and Call of Duty 4 to second and third place, respectively. The rest of the list posted by Major Nelson is pretty run-of-the-mill, save for what came in last place: Rock Band 2. We can’t remember the last time Rock Band 2 populated this list. So, good for you, little game-that-could!
On the XBLA side, it’s all about the Worms 2. Explosive sheep were quite the draw, as the sequel to Team17’s fragfest managed to beat out another popular XBLA title, Magic: The Gathering – Duels of the Planeswalker. We guess Magic: The Gathering is all tapped out. Get it? Hello? Where are you going?

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.

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.
