Worms for Mac

The confusingly named “Worms 2: Armageddon” (Worms 2 and Worms Armageddon were earlier, consecutive games at the series’ prime) was sneakily announced for Mac OS X in the description of its Xbox Live Arcade trailer. (Fire (again) and vertical levels? Neat.)

As someone who spent time trying to get one or the other variation of the great 2D Worms running under VMWare Fusion, I can appreciate that.

  1. As someone who spent time trying to get one or the other variation of the great 2D Worms running under VMWare Fusion

    Would you care to indicate the winning combination? As much as I’ve tried with SheepShaver, Boxer or Fusion, I always run into tedious cursor issues.

    And thanks for catching this info!

  2. I said “trying”. I never got it to work, including using Windows 98 (the last good pre-NT Windows; W2 doesn’t run at all under 2000+, and W:A only runs heavily patched). I heard just the other day that Sun VirtualBox will run it, but I don’t want to spend any more time on this right now.
