[edit] Release Date

Is that really the release date? I hope so! --Cngodles 21:19, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Well it was said that it would be released almost immediately after CES, and GameSpot said that it had an expected release of January. Given it's the last Wednesday in the month I would assume so. Velorium 23:07, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

I think a Jan 24th release date is unlikely. Spadge said it still hasn't been certified on the 19th. He has also mentioned that Microsoft likes to do a week of PR around release and we haven't seen that yet. --Rex Nebular 07:37, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

I have been chatting with spadge (the creative director of Team 17) who says there still isn't a release date. --yilez 10:14, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Bleh, yeah, at this point it might release in early Q2. Major Nelson just posted a link showing 10 games to be released weekly starting on feb 10th with no specific dates. Velorium 20:49, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, I know that the release date was last Wednesday, but they missed the date due to certification and the like. That implies to me that Microsoft are eager to get it out as soon as. I doubt it will be this Wednesday, but I get the feeling it will be in February. --yilez 10:14, 05 February

I heard that they wanted to release it this week, but they still did not have it done. That is why this week had no new title. --Cngodles 21:30, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

I have edited the release date information in the introduction in accordance with information from this article: http://worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=40998&mode=thread&order=0 172.212.103.159 23:23, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

At the International site on www.xbox.com it says that the game was released the 3rd of March but still it's not avalable on the Marketplace. --EmilJJ 21:25, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Size

I was reading about how they were having trouble squeezing this release within the size limits, but apparently yesterday or the day before they upped the size limit from 50MB to 150MB. I wonder if Worms is going to be a 50MB or a 150MB release. I'm betting 50MB. --Cngodles 15:22, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

-> It was 40-something MB, so you were right. --EmilJJ 22:09, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ranking Formula

I'd like to see someone figure out the formula for determining your score on the leaderboard. I've been playing this game alot, and last night, I was ranked #101 overall. --Cngodles 14:10, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
