I was actually watching some very small children playing Earthworm Jim in a shop the other day...

How can one worm be so awesome and have that feature so consistently? Ahhh, the old days of the Earthworm Jim era.

Indeed. Oh, the 90s decade... |3

I do want to buy EWJ HD in PSN. I've tried a couple of years ago Earthworm Jim: Special Edition in Sega Genesis + CD emulator, and I did like it.

Uh-oh, looks like the thread has been derailed again. Only this time I don't have the heart to stop it :P

Looks like IGN liked the Vita version so that's good news! It's too bad they didn't speak of the relics.

the relics unlock pieces a puzzle that was gonna show what happened in the glade of dreams previously and such are they really putting that in the game or is that just kinda unknown as of right now.
(the thought of it is kinda nice, i would like to see a bit more of the back story of the glade if not then oh well.. .)

I find it amusing how my perfectly on-topic comment has derailed and ran into this sniping ground for Ting Deductions. (See what I did there? That was a CoD joke.)

so I'm kinda pleasantly surprised by the game. seeing the trailers, it seemed kinda retarded, but actually it reminds me of the 1st rayman. some of the environments are even prettier than in the 1st game. the music is cool too.

I'm a bit disappointed by the absence of story, even though the one in hoodlum havoc made no sense. also it seems they got rid of the jokes of hoodlum havoc :(
the absence of resistance of enemies is weird. combined with a very minimalistic AI, they are extremly easy to defeat. in the 1st game, a stone-man or a ferocious moth always gave me trouble. in another hand I like how you can fight, it makes more sense that before.

Whilst Origin's lacks much in the story department, it's very presence caused quite a stir in the overall continuity.

Skip to the 2 hour mark for footage of the Vita version.

They don't show any of the exclusive modes but looks identical to console version.

Already done, just search on the deepest and creepiest areas of the internetz

Haters gonna hate.I'm a cartoonist, I watch cartoons to get inspired (at least the good ones), and let me tell ya', My Little Pony isn't that bad, actually it's pretty funny. why do you hate them? have you ever watched any episode? If you hate the show just because it was intended for little girls I can't do anything for you, just go and snuggle in your overprotected masculinity. Let me tell you something: we're living a new era, where ponies are manlier than vampires.

P.D: Don't worry, I'm not gonna talk about ponies anymore, that would be a waste of time and out-of-the-topic.
Excuse me while i go kill myself.

P.S: I hope nobody takes this seriously.

Why does it irritate me so much when people complain about story or lack of story? When did story alone govern if a game is good or not. Story is nice and all, but I play games for the gameplay. I couldn't care less about the story. Thats why I hated Kingdom Hearts 2. It was like watching a movie that happened to be interactive. You had to walk two steps to trigger another 15 minute long cutscene :tssk:

What’s that droplet-shaped thing at 2:01:23, right between the time-trial trophy and the Lums Medal, with 0/2 written above it? Could that be a Relic?
