I've grown to appreciate the redesigns all the more, when I look back at the old games and realize just how weird the worms used to look like, especially in the cutscenes!
@@kinnikuman-devilman_fan_2002 The original was clearly trying to go for a more realistic worm look for the characters. Then Worms 2 redesigned them into a chibi like design to make them less jarring and more cartoonish.

@@Cyberbrickmaster1986 Yep, would been awesome to see the old Worms games like this and Worms 3D in future consoles like the Switch someday if Team17 celebrates Worms' anniversary someday in the future :D
It’s amazing how good old video games look in your memory. I went from TLOU2 back to TLOU the other day and boy was I disappointed. Still, this video brings back some very fond memories. P.S Same can be said for movies
I would play this game for hours trying to find all the different scenes, used to draw them... I'm in the minority that loves these old school models but I think it's down to what you've grown up with!
0:51 I recently played this game on PS5 and I could tell my dad had played it as a kid because he could predict it exactly. “And he falls over because it’s so heavy” and the worm did!
Nostalgia triggered! I used to play this gem a lot on the PS1. After that I started to love all the newer Worms although not all games where really that good.
+Ben Walker The Steam version works on my Windows 10 laptop. I've also bought the GOG version, but I don't feel like testing it. It most likely also works.
Yeah, they made them cuter by removing the nose & creepy limbs and made their heads to body ratio different, also added cell shading/outlines. Most people agree that these ones from Worms 1 were pretty creepy looking.
Was quite the jump back in the day going from an A1200 to a 486 with a CD rom, these video really sold what a bigger machine could do (and well, you know, Doom, Magic Carpet, etc.).
A lot of the cutscenes seemed to be inspired from the film Bad Taste I’ve always thought . From the quirky offkey music to the similarities of some scenes.
Someone in the comments is whining about the fact that the graphics and animations aren't good and that the humour is childish. Did they not know how hard to was to do this with a very small budget back in 1995? Not to mention that this games was for kids so of course it's going to be childish.

The worms in this game has Rayman's nose, which is kinda funny, considering that the first Rayman game also came out in 1995. Ubisoft must have sued Team 17 for plagiarism, as the worms in Worms 2 onward don't have noses anymore, but then from Worms Armageddon onward, they have no arms but detachable hands, like Rayman! But Ubisoft's apparently okay with that, as the worms have the detachable hands to this day!
I remember that former British video game company logo really well. It can be also seen in a PAL version of Jersey Devil but it has different music I guess. In the late 1990s, Ocean renamed Infogrames UK when it was acquired by a French video game company, Infogrames and it is now known as Atari, Inc.

Worms WMD seems like the best so far
True, plus the crazy thing? is my first Worms game was Ultimate Mayhem before I discovered this video lol.

A true cinematic masterpiece
Man, I seem to remember these being much better than they really were. But back then any sort of 3D animation seemed amazing.

The reason is you rember only emotion and feelings and how you felt at that time, not the actual footage....
Then I guess I'm built differently because I still think these look awesome.
@@thatswedishguy638 The only Chad in this comment section.
Ah the memories... Worms was such a great game
Weird early CGI stuff just has this charm to it honestly
20 years and it's still FUN!!
20?

Também essas intros são lendárias tinham que fazer um filme👍
The whole game was 100 mb, and the videos was like 90mb
Wark therefore the game itself was 10mb
...so what?
@@houstonhelicoptertours1006 Try to teach me trivia, will you!?
Fun fact: part of the scene at 1:06 was reused later in Worms 2 on the TV in the worms in Hell cutscene.
And that worm in the old 1995 team 17 logo yes!

The animation reminds me of an early Pixar short from the 90s

I played the shit out of Worms Armageddon and Worms Ultimate Mayhem
Vietnam war in a nutshell
Love those clips! Still got the original CD-ROM ready to be used, and a computer old enough to run it!
The sheer range of emotions Uzi Worm goes through before, during & after the tree massacre is worthy of an Oscar.
i am so fucking nostalgic right now!
I like to thanks team 17 for the first worms game!
Worms WMD is pretty good.
@@WorldWidePatriots But worms rumble is just a trashy battle royale with worms slapped over it
The growling worm at 3:03 is the best part tbh.
i had this game on ps1 this video gives me so many good memories :D
those cutscenes look very experimental
They are
A timeless classic
Love the Chuck Jones Humour!
I want to get this so I can relive my childhood!

pykman Or Steam :DDD
+googoojnr on steam for 4,99€
+CTVFINLAND Does it work with any of your Windows 10 Machines?
+Ben Walker The Steam version works on my Windows 10 laptop. I've also bought the GOG version, but I don't feel like testing it. It most likely also works.
The best graphics to this day
I remember watching these when I was six.
The worms looked different in Worms 1. Every other game since Worms 2 had the worms we know today.
Yeah, they made them cuter by removing the nose & creepy limbs and made their heads to body ratio different, also added cell shading/outlines. Most people agree that these ones from Worms 1 were pretty creepy looking.
they look wierd compared to the newer ones
and creepy
Psscht. Now I want to laugh at myself... Cause I didn't know how to capitalize.
What
The worms lost their noses in later versions of the game
@@pex_the_unalivedrunk6785 i think the worms without noses and limbs with the bigger eyes look better
i liked the one at around 3:20 pretty good for the 90s
look at their joints... Quality modeling...
THE GAME THAT STARTED IT ALL!!!!!!!!
this game is legendary
I received this as a birthday present back in 1996
Was quite the jump back in the day going from an A1200 to a 486 with a CD rom, these video really sold what a bigger machine could do (and well, you know, Doom, Magic Carpet, etc.).

3:28 a worm singing worms
The kamikaze one was always my favourite.
I love the cutscenes
I must admit, i found this intro weird even back at that time.
Funny fact: The cutscene of the worm shooting the tree is a easter egg of the first peter jackson movie:Bad taste
A lot of the cutscenes seemed to be inspired from the film Bad Taste I’ve always thought . From the quirky offkey music to the similarities of some scenes.
I was playing this game with friend on Amiga 500... I suppose this was like 1996... Amazing times :)
Played this on PS1 when I was young! I once made a bridge over an entire map with vertical girders, as I didn't know you could rotate them...
we finally found the guys who made those bowling alley animations
I'd give anything to have a gmod ragdoll of the worms

2:40 Tom and Jerry explosion from the episode called 'The Missing Mouse'! xD
+Pix "We repeat, the White Mouse will not explode!"
Someone did a Wile E. Coyote at the end.
I remember these, but my PS1 would lag and sometimes crash while watching them. So I had to skip them.

5:02 that scream lmao
an awesome game, i miss it :(
So download it on an emulator and play it!
0:07 Is that Flipper the fabulous dolphin in the Ocean logo?
Austin Alexander Nope, it's Ecco.
Hellscrap3r Oh, sorry.
No problem. I can see why you'd mistake them though. I always thought it was Flipper. :)

Maybe it’s just a generic dolphin, who knows?
NOSTALGIA!
This is the scariest shit I've seen in my entire fucking life
0:51 In _Fallout 4_ when you're encumbered on Survival difficulty

ECCO THE DOLPHIN! ECCO THE FUCKIN DOLPHIN!
Wow these take me back.
Very nostalgic thank you
Nostalgiaed hard
srsly? that guy is gonna use the revolver without bullets? 0:40
Core i7 would probably still not be enough to run this game.
3:02 Dats a Chuck Norris joke right there. Either dat or he is the real Slim Shad
Oceans only game since 1995 and yet has got some pretty OK graphics
This is the tv's in the bowling alley when you get a strike.
ahh i remember them days, with a direct 3D graphics card and a 3d accelerator.
These worms are savage
I used to think that dolphin sequence was amazing.
+Adam Demeter (Agginon) well yeah but it wasn't really like that in the 80s where Ocean was everywhere, we only had the logo and nothing else.
I do!
0:20 What you think you got.

Doom 1 weapon pickup sound

HE HAS THE NOSE
El sonido lo reciclaron para un corto llamado Killer Bean 2 The Party jajajajaja
That shriek at 5.04 really saddens me...
Thanks Chris
Worms on the Amiga, good times!
I belive this game and worm odyssey where the first games that introduced the rumble feature on games

Forgivable, they got good over the years.
This gives an aura
Best times 🚀💯🙏🏻
The team 17 logo is creepy
Hah.. Fantastic, thanks for uploading! Used to love these clips while playing Worms on my Saturn xD
Worm Odyssey original concept
my childhood
just got it for 99p from a charity shop and its in good condition :D
the worms look like a mix between mr saturn and vegi tales
0:51. *(grunting)* 😣
*(crashing)* 💫
*(metal clanking)* ⚙️🔩
Nostalgia....
I didn't remember how bad these cutscenes are.
It's just like those corny ass animations that play when you go bowling.
You know the ones.
Using DosBox, mounting CD and instaling it. Find instructions how to do it on DosBox wiki and on filler #3 on Ancient Dos Games site.
england produced the guys that founded rockstar.
2:25 uhhm
Only strongest MS DOS can run these 3d animations
These are better than skeleton gifs
