Godfree and the gang at Gamertag Radio scored an interview with Martyn Brown of Team17, the developers of Worms for Xbox Live Arcade. Martyn answers lots of burning questions about the game, and assures us that the classic Worms experience is intact. We are particularly happy to report that ninja rope is in the game (along with the ability to drop weapons while roping). Voice banks are also supported, though Team17 couldn't fit them all into the game. More are coming to Marketplace, though. What the interview does not have: a release date.Worms, without a doubt, is the most highly anticipated Arcade title right now (at least it is judging from the comments around here). If you're even a little bit interested, we suggest you check out the latest episode of GTR for the interview. Also included in the show are interviews with the Yankees' Johnny Damon, Snoop Dogg (no, seriously), and the developers of Bullet Witch. Hit the "read" link to check it out.

After looking at the screenshots and gameplay vids, is this the exact version of PSP's Worms, Open Warfare? OW barely held my attention for about a week so I'm stepping back from this game unless most my friends get this.

Worms is highly anticipated becuase it was and still is an awesome game. I'm sure Castlevania is too, but I think a lot more people have played Worms than Castlevania.
Personally I think XBLA has been pretty shitty recently, Mortal Kombat being the last game I purchased. I hope they improve the titles this year, I actually can't belive some of the crap they have been pumping out, I just hope that it has been reflected in the sales figures and soon they will realise what people want in XBLA. I'm not loosing any sleep over ms. pacman thats for sure.

Worms can't get here soon enough. Pro-Roper matches were awesome back in the day. I've spent more time playing Worms online than any other online franchise.
Castlevania's a classic, no doubt, but it's a franchise that gets new releases regularly. We haven't gotten a proper online 2D Worms title on consoles... well, ever, I think.
