No Worms game will ever be an improvement to WA, ever...
Where do you think T17 went wrong, Dave?
I don't think T17 has went wrong at all, not at all.
I honestly think we have grown to like WA so much (like i've played it since 1999...) that the others just don't have the same feeling which will always make them 2nd best...
I enjoy every single Worms game there is, but WA is just special, it was the 1st one I got heavily addicted to and actually spent half my life mastering, i've grown to love everything about it and idolized every feature... I think most addicted WA players are the same.
There isn't anything wrong with any other Worms game though.
Think about this and be brutally honest with yourselves, if THIS community was in charge of making a new Worms game, with a budget of all Worms games combined, even WE couldn't make a better game, all we can do is continue to make little improvements to this one now and again.
