And your twitter said you won't be in at work? Doing this from home, or did they drag you into the office?

This game needs a Play and Win event. It seems there are a lot of them these days and Worms could use the boost in awareness. Quite a fun summer for Xbox!

funny how these downloads often break, don't work or corrupt your save games, yet the mechanism for debiting your MS points *never* *ever* fails. Wonder where their priorities lie?

The music pack 2 is wrong, actually it's sound bank 2. I was hoping for an music pack so we could listen to the classic Worms theme in the menus.

To ALL regarding Worms in-game download content available on Xbox Live Marketplace:

The "Worms - Music Pack 2" was labeled wrong when it was put up on Xbox Live Marketplace. The correct name is "Worms - Soundbank Pack 2".

The description of it on Xbox Live Marketplace reads:

"Vocally enhance your Worms with this soundbank pack brought to you by Team17. For more information, see www.xbox.com/live/acccounts."

So to put it simply:

There is NO new background music in the game.

"Worms - Soundbank Pack 2" is just another pack of voices that a user can use with his/her custom team. For example: instead of dealing with English (default) voice bank, you'll be able to select American, Brooklyn, or even the Drill Sargent voice bank.

Also the "Worms - Retro Landscape: Manhattan" (150 Microsoft Points) is causing problems when used and has been pulled from Xbox Live Marketplace until the problem is fixed.

i'd prefer it if team 17 just fixed the bug on level 13. everything the clock gets to about 3 minutes, the clock stops whilst waiting for the computer to move. all you can do is quit the game

I see Microsoft is still stealing and committing fraud.

Yet another Theme Microsoft wants to charge us for while still not providing advertised theme and system customization options.

I still can not change every detail of the way my 360 looks.

I can't even do every reasonable detail. Reasonable details would be Custom Pictures on each blade like a real theme. Another reasonable detail, custom guide tile picture. The third reasonable detail would be custom Guide trim coloring.

Until those features are implemented, You Major Nelson and every person working at Microsoft are actively committing fraud. The fraud is even more blatant every time you advertise a theme while customizing reasonable details is unavailable. It is advertised that EVERY DETAIL can be customized. Heck if every detail could be customized I could change blade orders, remove the advertisement blocks, make the blades top based tabs, etc, etc. However I would be happy with REASONABLE DETAILS like per blade pictures, my own guide tile picture, and my own trim color scheme.

Any chance of us getting the features you advertise instead of committing fraud just because you are part of a big company?

When will we be able to customize every last detail???

Further this false advertising continues to this day.:

"Call it up, select "Options," choose "Themes," and personalize your console's interface down to every last detail.

By picking various themes—downloaded from Xbox Live using a Wireless Networking Adapter or constructed from media you've streamed over from your PC—you can change the appearance of your background. Change of mood? You can adjust menu colors and dashboard trim plus swap wallpaper as desired.

You even have the choice of importing pictures or photos to use in place of the system defaults. Plaster your pet's picture across the display. It's your world, so customize it to your personal preference."

Would love to see a new Worms game with full weapon set now that 50MB size limit has been scrapped. Thanks to Team 17 for sticking with 2D and not 3d!

eh, music pack eh? its just more speech banks, rather than some new music, but hey, its free... landscapes are horribly overpriced, i'd by them at 50 or 75, or all of them inc the previous releases for maybe 3-400 in a bundle with some new achievements, maybe some new weapons...

Watered down game to begin with. Now they're making us pay for stuff that should have been in the game in the first place. Xbox Live marketplace is a ripoff more offen than not.

John Q Taxpayer said "Very pricey content, but I will take that free stuff and reiterate my thanks for patching out the ridiculous pacing problems the game had previously." - /me second that.
