Just wondering, because of the delays on Microsofts part, has this put Team 17 off producing more games for XBLA?
and certification taking much longer than we would have hoped. We know we aren’t the only case, but that doesn’t ease the frustration.”
I can't see the dev team bagging xbla when they're trying to make the game as successful as possilbe. Also, if the game makes a nice profit then any hurdles they've had to overcome would have been worth it.

I would not say its put me off, but I will say that the inconsistencies with the information have allowed me to move on a bit. Dont get me wrong, I plan on getting Worms once its released but the games I decided I was not going to get since I was planning on getting Worms, have now been reconsidered and some have been bought. Supposedly, the release is coming. I think giving the true fans that have been on these boards for a long time a little bit of information would help. Instead, all we have gotten is the same "still in certification" answer and no new information concerning the game. We still dont even know what month the game comes out in and we have all been waiting since December when we thought it was coming sooner rather than later. It may not be T17's fault but I think letting us know a little more would be beneficial. Most fans coming to these boards are obviously the ones who are more than interested in the game and have been around for more than just the last couple of versions. Its of my opinion that T17 should come out with some details about the game we have stuck around here waiting for. Outline some basic options that we will have available, specifically cover the weapons that will be and wont be in the game.....something. I am not asking for everything, but something other than Tuesday night thinking this Wednesday may be the day and then oops, sorry, Paperboy. Or even worse, nothing this week, try again next week. We all know that it will be limited since its an arcade game. How about some info about what will make this game different than the other versions I have. Is it the same as the PSP? I own the PSP version (and I am not much of a fan) what will be different? Same?
Spadge, I know you are doing what you can (which is much appreciated) and you are limited by the rules that you are given but I had to get this off my chest because truth be told, I think fans are losing interest. Every message board that talks about XBLA, there is always a topic that asks for Worms. Its a big game for XBLA and to get it right is great. I am not saying rush the game, just give us some info, new screenshots, new movies, a projected month for release, etc.

Things aren't as simple as that. I believe, it's about to hot up, btw.

I think I can speak for a lot of fans around here and say, "We are ready"! Bring on the heat.

It looks as though Worms is not going to make February either. Next Wednesdays XBLA title is Alien Hominoid HD.....
