Totally agree... I get that Team 17 want's to jump on the hype bandwagon that is battle royale (hell, one could argue that there could have been a way to manage to deliver on that) but man this looks like they completely missed the mark :| And yeah, a new 3D worms would be awesome. I still think it was one of the few franchises that managed to transition in 3D pretty much flawlessly when they first tried it :-)
