Microsoft said a while ago that they would start making more games, all of which were designed for multi-player action. According to 1Up, Worms marks the first of those games. For those of you that don't know, Worms is a multiplayer game with "funny little worms fighting it out with rocket launchers". It should become available on Xbox Live Arcade on March 7th for 800 points ($10).

I love how Microsoft and Nintendo think they can charge ppl for old games wich almost anyone can download onto their PC's in under a minute.
But hey, they are right. People are just that dumb.
