Gameloft's high definition remake of Earthworm Jim has already hit the PlayStation Network in Europe. How's that working out for you guys?
Folks in the US, however, have to wait until next week. Gameloft has confirmed that Earthworm Jim HD will hit PlayStation Network in North America next Tuesday, August 3. The update isn't a direct port of the original, though. The game will feature three new levels, as well as local and online cooperative play for up to four players across 15 new multiplayer levels.
It'll cost you $9.99, which is seems reasonable for some high definition cow launching.
Coming Tuesday to PSN: Earthworm Jim HD for PS3 [PlayStation Blog]

$10? No $5? Yes
I can wait for a sale on this one.
I'm definitely picking up. I have a 360 but all my friends are on ps3. Can't wait!
Someone had to:)
Yeah it does. Wrong but good:)
First of all, I don't suck at games especially when it comes to the platformer and the sub-genre, action platformer. Those happen to be my favorite genres.
Secondly, you must be living under a rock as the original Earthworm Jim games were notorious for having bad controls. This new updated version doesn't change that. Have you not even read the reviews for the 360 version ? It doesn't look like you have.
Think about it: Streets of Rage HD, Ecco Th Dolphin HD and above all Comix Zone HD!!
Orgasmic!
Now that they have proven themselves adept at remaking 16-bit classics, they should continue to do so.
As for Clunky controls, wut? It just took some getting used to.
