Include all the wespons missing from other great titles (Armageddon/World Party) or GTFO! As much as I missed the voice packs, I missed the weapons more (Where oh where is the Concrete Donkey?!).

Agreed.

We still play Worms on the PC regularly, so I bought the 360 version in the hope that we could play it there, instead of huddling around a PC.

But the game really is more like a demo without the extra weapons.

Yup, I agree completely with that. I heard it was going to be 'cut back' to a degree, but the amount that has gone walkabout is shocking! WWP was one of the few games that got major playtime whenever we got our PCs together for a LAN - Hell, I'd still be playing it over Hamatchi if it'd run on my current GFX card.

It just isn't anywhere near the same playing the XBLA 'cut' of Worms icon_sad.gif

Any more achievement points/single player game content (backgrounds don't count, I'm talking levels or challenges)?

The extra weapons would be cool but it was nice to play a stripped down version of the game. Made it more tactical and more of a challenge.

That's a nice way of dressing the limited content up, but you could still do the same thing if all the weapons were in there by making custom weapon sets.

I know, I know. It had to be cut down to fit in the (now extended) 50mb limit and all that, but I can't help missing the full Worms experience.

You don't. It's dashboard themes for you 360.

Ah, OK, dashboard themes as opposed to desktop themes. Just some interesting use of terminology there!
