Worms 2007 heading for your mobile
Another explosive outing for those tooled-up invertebrates
Craving some hot wiggly-worm action? Well, you should probably work on your chat-up lines then. Ho ho. Or, of course, you could wait until next month, then play THQ Wireless' Worms 2007 game.
It's an all-new update to the classic Worms franchise, and THQ is promising new weapons and a bunch of new features for the game.
For starters, on high-end handsets the game will feature souped-up 3D backgrounds – something first seen in the publisher's recent Worms Crazy Golf game. There'll also be a 2D version for other handsets.
The game will be set across various time periods, and offer solo gameplay as well as a pass-the-handset multiplayer mode for up to four people. There'll also be new missions, challenges and game modes, as well as new weapons and some of the old favourites.
Other stuff: you'll be able to pan about the levels with a fully-controllable camera, blow up terrain and ground objects at will, there'll be weapons and utility crates dropped during the game, and you'll have grappling hooks to make your worms more mobile.
It sounds like Worms 2007 will be close to the classic Worms games on console and handheld, so we can't wait to play it. Click 'Track It!' for a wormy missive when we review the game.
