Worms is a COMPLETE rip-off....

I played worms on the commodore Amiga 500! That was around the late late 80's when a I was in High School 1986-89. Its been around for awhile. I wouldn't call it a rip yet maybe in point cost, have to see. Wildhang

Awesome.  If you were using the Amiga, you certainly must've played Defender of the Crown back around 1988!?

Gunbound ripped off both Worms and Scorched Earth.

But ALL of them ripped off Gorillas.

Have you guys noticed that worms is a complete rip-off from that online game called gunbound? i just saw worms in gameplay and even though i loved gunbound a cpl years back, wow, this is an EXACT clone. I'm a little upset cuz i heard all this hype for Worms to find out it's this? w/e, i guess not all games can b original. 

for those of you who have never heard of gunbound: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyKQIgE139I

and gunbound could not have possibly copied worms cuz gunbound has been around for years.

how many years? worms has been around for many years as well, appearing on ps1.   im talking about worms: armaggedon and im sure there was 1 or 2 titles b4 that. 

and who cares, if you like gunbound you'll like worms as well.  games take inspiration and good things from other games and incorporate them into their own.  sure it looks almost exactly the same, but if i were the developers of whichever came first i'd feel flattered that they liked the game soo much.  also who made gunbound? maybe its the same developer, or maybe its just a mod or something.   i dunno

worms was out on pc well before ps1

which is why i also said the other underlined statement, i knew there was just didnt know anything about worms until armaggedon

for sure man, im praying its just as good as I remember.  I grabbed a copy for my DS, it was HORRIBLE.  I want a good port for XBL.  Im keeping my fingers crossed.

It Came From the Desert....LOL Those were the days... tears to my eyes. All these young 360 & Sony fans never got to see or play the golden age of Amiga. Everyone talks about old Nes & Sega systems but for me I had them and had an Amiga and the Amiga was the system to have. I loved that system man why did it have to fail me... Piracy and America's neglect killed the poor Amiga. Remembering the days of SYNDICATE, BENEATH A STEEL SKY, CANNON FODDER, STUNT CAR RACER, ZOOL, PARALLEL STARS, WIZBALL, SPEEDBALL, MONKEY ISLANDS, INDIANA JONES ADVENTURES, SENSIBLE SOCCER, FLASHBACK, IT CAME FROM THE DESERT, SUPERFROG, PUTTY, SWIV, ALIEN BREED, MICRO MACHINES, CHAOS ENGINES the list goes on and on....mightyboosh13

Yup, I pirated and downloaded every single thing I could, and I'm proud of it.  I litereally had boxes full of copied software.  I, singlehandedly, brought down the mighty Commodore empire.  Steve Case was so broken up about the failure of Commodore that he went and founded America Online.  Sucker.  I wonder who's living larger now.

I must've gotten at least $200 for all my old computer gear.
