I loved this game when it was originally out on the Super Nintendo. It has great gameplay, a fun story, and a quite funny ending. While this is just a remake of that game, it'll be great to relive the experience in GameBoy Advance glory. I highly recommend to those of you who have not played it yet and who would love a good platformer.

Nothing better!!! One of the best games ever played!!!

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!!!

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!

Earth Worm Jim rocks

Earth worm Jim is by far the most adventerous game I've ever played. Not only is this game fun, but is fast moveing, and the graphics rock dude If you don't know what game to by, by this one. :) Bye for Now Hahahahaha Papie

And now a word from someone who's actually played the game!

well I played the GBA version of Earthworm Jim. It's the same game as always, which is good, but with two major problems. Firstly, the graphics. They just aren't as good as they should and could be. The GBA has BETTER hardware than a Super Nintendo and deserves greater levels of respect. Unfortunately not here.

The big one is this: You'll never finish it. It's not too hard or anything, it's just that this is a huge game...and well, long story short THERE IS NO SAVE FEATURE. That's right, you can't save your game. If you want to play through the entire game, you have to do it in one sitting. This glaring oversight ruins so much about this game. There's very little replay value because eventually those first couple of levels will start to get very dull.

As far as the levels themselves, they're pretty good. This is the same game you've been playing and loving. It's awesome. But once again, VERY repetitive due to the number of times you'll be playing it.

One of the greatest games ever is totally ruined by careless developers wanting a cash in. If they had just bothered to put in a save game feature, Earthworm Jim could have been one of the greatest games ever.

Great Game Gone To Waste!!

This is a very good game exept for two Huge Problems!!! This game doesn't have a save feature, so the first levels get very BOORRING!!! So unless you cheat you wont get to the end. The graphics are horrible! You need to be in perfect lighting to see some of the stuff in this game. Other than that i think you should get this game. (yeah right)

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.

BOARING.

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!
