Cell phone worms?

[ng3000]

I buy a lot of games on my cell phone now that cellular gaming has become so advanced. I only buy 3D games, and a lot of them are far, far more complicated than a basic Worms game.

I would so love to play Worms on my phone. ;-;

How much did your phone cost you?

There's already 5, maybe 6, Worms games for Java-enabled mobile phones.

And they're none of them great. Forts is probably the best of the bunch, but it likes a big screen.

Well that's exactly why it's good. Worms (the mobile WOW one) has maps sized for the phone which results in the CPU killing himself 99% of the time.

I have it on my cell phone. It has like 5 weapons and the controls suck (cause hell its a cell phone) I was greatly disapointed but what can you say, consoles are where its at.

That's actually the first time I played Worms: on a mobile phone.
I got addicted since then :p
BTW it was forts. It came with a Sony Ericsson walkman. The one that swivels, I believe.

Why not create a new Worms for the neXt Gen mobile phones of Nokia? I mean, they have a great CPU (400 MHZ), a lot of RAM (64 MB - 128 MB) and 3D Hardware Accelerator, so it could be possible to create something like "Worms Open Warfare 2" for the mobile phone!

Well, even the "mobile phone" NGage was able to run WWP (and this game had a big landscape + other things). So this wouldn't be the problem today.

Forts was the only descent Worms on the mobile phone. Sadly ... *sighs*

Nah, Worms 2007 isn't that bad.
Also, Worms Golf and the sequel Worms Crazy Golf are fun.

Worms 2007 just had some 3D backgrounds and 2 or 3 new weapon, thats it. It still has no background music, no worms sound, no special weapon sound, nothing. Argh, we need a comeback of WWP!!!!

Cellphones can only do so much. If you want a good handheld game I suggest you pick up WOW2. The Ngage was designed to be a games console... most cell phones aren't.

Well, the new mobile phones of Nokia (N81-N95) are the new NGage, but still no sign of a new Worms (and no, I won't spend a lot of money for only just one game [PSP, DS]). Just look at this video:

The N93 and N95 are able to run some high quality games, so its highly possible to create something like a new and GOOD Worms.

Yes, but those phones are specifically designed to be able to run those games. Most phones aren't. It's like handing you a Commodore64 and saying "Right, port Worms Armageddon to that. And don't cut back on anything, I want it to be just as good as the PC version."

Well, the NGage was specialized in running, e.g. the special WWP, so why not make a new "Worms" only for the neXt Gen mobile phones of Nokia (and I never mentioned that the Worms on the mobile phone has to be like the original PC Worms)? Because the old one won't run on my N95.

[Squirminator2k]

No, wait. You're missing the point. The Ngage was designed to be a phone and a games consoles. Most modern phones are not. A mobile phone Worms game on the same level as WWP Ngage is simply not going to happen.

Hmm.. how's Worms 2007?

[Wolv]

Not good at all. It may have some 3D maps + new weapons, but there is no sound at all (except bazooka, grenade sound and music) and thats the f***** problem.
