Because Worms was totally awesome on Xbox LIVE Arcade, Team 17 made a sequel, Worms 2: Armageddon. Sure, the name is uninspired, but it is by all accounts pretty awesome, and it’s coming out this Wednesday. It’ll cost you 800 MS Points, features new play modes, and multiplayer support up the wahzoo.
Xbox LIVE Arcade gets even more SNK fighter love this week with The King of Fighters ’98 Ultimate Match. So if for some crazy reason you’re already done playing Garou, here’s your chance to spend another 800 MS Points for 64 more fighters, and online multiplayer support.
My suggestion: If you’re already purchased Garou, go with Worms 2, because you already have your 2D fighter fix. Hell, if you haven’t purchase Garou, still get Worms 2. I think you get where I’m going with this.
But no listens to me, and I don't really blame them. So what XBLA plans do you have this week?

Is THIS Worms actually WORTH buying? I mean, the last one was gimped compared to pretty much every computer and portable version available. I'm beginning to think they intentionally omitted a bunch of stuff simply so they could sell this second one.
Team 17, make it happen NAO! :]
@DinnertimeNinja, I believe they aren't taking anything out of the game this time (it's meant to be pretty much a straight port from the N64 Worms: Armageddon, which will be good). So they should be keeping all the unique weapons it has.
The only thing I know for certain they are doing is revamping the graphics and putting in Online play.
You can equivocate KOF 98 with Street Fighter Alpha 3. All the characters from the series(up to 97 anyway) along with options of systems makes for alot of variety and fairly balanced play.
Isn't Kodu supposed to come out any day now as well?
