New Earthworm Jim A Remake Of The Original

Gameloft and Interplay recently announced the two companies would be bringing Earthworm Jim to Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, WiiWare and mobile in late 2009. But the two companies weren't very specific on what exactly was in development. A new Earthworm Jim? A remake?

I have an answer for you, readers. A Gameloft representative has confirmed to me it's a remake of the 1994 original game released on Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis, not a new game.

This remake has a one month exclusivity to Xbox Live Arcade and will appear elsewhere after.

Please let them make this hand-drawn. I feel like if they go 3D, I'm going to think the same thing about this as I did about the Turtles in Time remake. I liked the original graphics better.

Its saddening to hear that PS3 owners have to wait longer to get their hands on this remake. It seems like more and more developers are pulling this kind of crap and I wish they would quit it. I'm a PS3 and Xbox 360 owner, but my PS3 is the only thing that can connect to the internet because its wireless and the internet connection is on the other side of the house. Too bad that stupid wireless adapter for the 360 costs $100.

Sounds awesome! It's just a pity that we PS3 users will have to wait a little longer for it. Oh well, no harm no foul. It'll come over to our side eventually.

JUST LIKE ALL YOUR EXCLUSIVE FALLOUT 3 DLC (LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL)

Sorry, off topic. Anyways, rock on!
