No doubt this is one of the best platform games. It's a classic. It has many fun levels. I have this game for the PC for 5 years and I still think it is one of the best games I have ever played in my life. I have Playstation®, PC, Game Boy Color®, and I've played many other cool games in the past and out if all of these games, Earthworm Jim® is on my top 5 list along with Pitfall: The Mayan Adveture. I guarantee you 100% if you love platform/adventure games then this is a MUST BUY for you!!! Take my word for it. I'm 13 and I know what I'm talking about. This would probably be the most accurate review on this game you'll ever see for this great game. I can't wait for the release of it for Game Boy Advance® and I hope that you will be just as excited as me when it is in stores this June!!!

oh what a shame

I bought it and wasted my money. I love the gameplay. I like the graphics. Do any of you play these games in spurts of 15-30 minutes? I do. I don't want to play the same 15 minutes of a game over and over again. A battery save feature is essential in this type of game. Even a password feature would have helped. I can't play games for 10 hours in one sitting. I don't want to even if I could.

this is not the same earthworm jim

i love earthworm jim, but this game is a very poor port of the genisis/SNES original. VERY poor control and poor frame rate make this game very disappointing to any one who enjoyed genisis/snes version. if you've never played those, then you may enjoy this piece of poop, other wise stay away from this game.

DO NOT LISTIN TO THOSE RETARDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The origanal earthworm jim is possibly the best game ever freak'in made.
But this port SUCKS!
Every one who gave THIS version of the game a score higher then a 2 is:
1.mental
2.saten
3.Georg Bush
4.some one who worked on the game
5.some desprite fan who would give a shovel of crap with EWJ on it
a perfect score.

Honestly, what the @$#*!

Graphics 1/5
First off, the sprites have less then 1/2 the frames of the origenal.
Seciond of all there is almoast no fx.
In level 2 (at the end when fighting a boss) you have to jump out of the
way of fire to make it hit and destroy the platform the boss is standing on in order to kill it. But in this version the retards at "Game titan"(I never herd of them eiver) did not even bother to animate the platform falling, it sits there in thin air, and the boss just flys across the screen!

Sound 2/5
Thay took out half the sound fx to add a "snot a problem" voice efect at the start of the 4th level.
Thay dident even get the music placement right!
(youed think thay would actilly play the game there porting)

There is soooo mutch more wrong with this game, but now my fingers hurt!

On one positive side the tube levels are a lot better!

In closing, if want to play EWJ on the GBA, you should consider buying one
of those carts that you can put games from other systems on (or even computer programs!)

I own the SNES version and....

this is better. The graphics are better and the game itself is awsome. The best part of this game, I think, is when you fire 20 rounds of bullets into a little crow and see the bird explode into a cloud of feathers... very funny....

This game will appeal to almost anyone. Try it!

Earthworm Jim, now potable fun

Being a huge fan of all of the earthworm jim games i was so excited of this. I expected something new, and i got the old classic EWJ. But still it's fun. The game still gives of its great humor, fun action, and classic game play. Only one problem, THERE IS NO SAVE! Imagine if you had to go somewere right during the last level. You would have to start all over again. Other than that it's a sweet game. Buy soon!

no title

This game is kind of fun but it has no saving on it so you have to start over every time you turn it off. the colors are very dark and he shoots some () plasma instead of smacking or something.

Exactly like SNES EJ

Like others have said, this is a genuinely classic game. It's been ported perfectly to the GBA. The dark colors used are definitely a problem, even under ideal GBA-playing lighting conditions. As soon as someone comes out with a true backlight modification kit for GBA, this game will be the best in the GBA catalog!

hottest game ever

well eartworm jim is one of the best game for game boy advance yet. it is a side scroller. it has ripping graphigs although not as bright as other games.( i think this is how it was intended to be). it has good sound. he can jump, whip lash, shoot a ray gun and helicopter to the ground. the one thing that totally spoiled the game was beleive it or not you can save. so you're gonna have to do it all in one shot and this can become boring. my advice is to wait till may the 29th and buy eartworm jimmy 2 for the same price. i almost sure it would have a save feature.

Earthworm Jim Is The BEST Game Boy Game EVER!!!

This game is an update to the classic SNES version, and it's very well done. The graphics are good, the sound is nice and the environments are nicely polished. But the backgrounds don't move and the animation is slightly choppy. But other than that, the game is great! It's a little too cartoony for my taste but I still enjoy it! Buy this game, you won't regret it!!!
