Never watched it, thought there was a title screen only so I always skipped it.

Is that the "We are Worms, we are Worms and we're going off to war" one?

I remember one of them is called Spadge, who also makes an appearance in Alien Breed in a cheat code. I assume he's one of the devs, because the code is brings up the message "Beware aliens, Spadge has dropped one" and has the effect of emptying the entire level of aliens.

Nope, previous page I posted the youtube video.
It's the.. "His tail was split, his energy lost, how many more would this dreaded war cost?" one.

Team 17 do a rejig of the theme song every few years.

Lookit up on youtube, there's the music only versions for the 1994 games, a singing version between 1995-1997, and then a number of them leading up to the 2003 Worms 3D epic version.

"We are worms on a mission we've come to win the war, we'll stand, we'll never run, we'll stay until it's done.
Though our friends my fall, and our world be blown apart, we'll fight with all our might, we'll fight for what is right 'til the end..."

How did this thread escape me for so long!

The worms franchise has always been one of my favorites... Until it went all shit and 3D. So this is tre' awesome :D

I booted up reinforcements the other day too. Playing the challenges and killing James Brown made me do a lol. 'Funky!'

That looks perfect. Same gamplay, better graphics and UI, a few more cosmetics. That is exactly how a remake of a good game should be. Now do X-Com please.

I like some of the new touches - air strike missiles glancing surfaces and going off at an angle, and grenades feeling heavier.
Can't wait for them to release this on the PC - any 360 owners got this already?

Apparently it's a little bit buggy, but I really can't wait for the pc version now :D

Worms 2: Armageddon. Finally on PC in August.

Baliame uses Thread Necromancy.
It's super effective.
