I'm sorry your Worms download didn't work - I used that site to get some awesome old games and they were cool, I think it's just hit-and-miss in the porting to higher versions of windows.
Somedays I am seriously tempted to ressurect a box with DOS/Win 95 to get the good old days back :)
(By the way - long time no see! I swung by here a few weeks ago to learn that you are blogging again, but no archives! So I can't catch up what I've missed)
I've sinced acquired a version with half the challenge working. BAH HUMBUG! *G*
And hey hi! Long time indeed. I didn't realise the archives weren't working - I'm going to go poke them right now and see if I can't get them to cough up.

I'm looking at this game download website and it tells me that if I put a link on my website, it will let me download.
*blink*
Well, why not? If it lets me download a Worms+ that actually works under XP, I'll scrawl its URL on my stomach and do the hula. (This whole "Worms: Director's Cut" thing looks curious too...)
ETA: It was a bust. Every version I acquire of Worms+, the Challenge mode doesn't work under XP (didn't work under 98 either, from what I remember...). I've come across some online badinage that suggests that the 2MB version of the game that's available for download has had the Challenge mode pruned to cut 20MB off the game size. That could explain it. But since Anfy's only interested in the Challenge mode, that doesn't fucking help much.
