Xbox 360 Longplay [087] Earthworm Jim HD
htp://www.longplays.org
Played By: kireev20000
The gameplay remains the same. Plus I dislike what they have done to the music. It's a setback compared to the Sega CD version.
Well, actually its because Tommy Tallarico have the rights of music and SE, and HE told them that he could give them the sound effects and music, but Interplay said No, Thanks. Stupid move, if you ask me. -

I’d say it’s surreal to see a remastered version of this game.
Probably the most funny videogame ever. This release is amazing.
Four simple words, guys. EASIER THAN THE ORIGINAL.
Why do people hate this so much? There's not much wrong with it, from what I can tell.

It's missing big bruty from the sega cd and windows 95 version. The earthworm by the life counter is fanart and one of the level's background is from little nemo (Not the nes game the pixar movie) artwork that is why people hate it.
What strange about this version is that there was a Sega CD version of this game. It added an extra area to New Junk City and added a new level. This version keeps the extra area, but removed the new level.
While i can see why many people dislike the HD remake. There are some things i do like about it... I do like the intro showing Jims backstory. It looks nice too. The multiplayer mode looks kinda fun, i just wish there was more to it, like why can't there be a second player in the main story? It may not make sense for there to be two earthworm jims. But the Co-op does not have to correlate with the story. I honestly wish the remake had more to it. Like, there should have been an option where you can switch between remastered versions of the SNES or Genesis version. It doesn't have to be a mix between both....hell, you should be able to have the Remastered themes be optionally replaced with the originals! And as a cosmetic bonus, if you managed to collect all the "earth" "Worm" and "Jim" tokens from earthworm jim 2 in each level, you will unlock the option to change earthworm jims animations and Sound clips to reflect off his appearance in earthworm Jim 2. Any you missed can be recollected by Revisiting a level in the Level Select, something i wish was also added to this game. The game doesn't seem downright terrible, its just lacking several things that could have made the experience better. Like, where was that one exclusive level that was in the sega genesis release? They added the Duodenum level, but not it?

The funny thing is that the Genesis was the original target platform. Hell, the Sega CD and original PC versions already had a remastered soundtrack.
20:34 Andy Asteroid Quotes: 1. Look! They're meatballs! 2. I'm a rocket man!
Wow, they SERIOUSLY ramped the difficulty on the Andy Asteroids levels something fierce! They weren't nearly half as bad in the 16-bit versions, but here it's like you have maybe a second to react before you smash into an asteroid, and it's a lot harder to "tell" where they will collide with you!
I think they went overboard with the sound effects, especially in "What the Heck?" -- it's distracting. This remake isn't bad, but it could have been much better. It should have at least had all of the levels from the previous versions. A remake should always be the new definitive version; otherwise, there's no point to remaking it. Also, I miss the Rocket weapon.

I can't tell you how many times I've just been sitting around the house, or making a snack, or taking a shit, and I just went, "PlaAAAsma!". The only thing I feel I should complain about is that they took the levels, and broke them up into sections. The health bars are a nice touch, and while, yes, the difficulty is toned WAY down, it might be for the better. For example: the crows in New Junk City. I can't TELL you how many times they swooped in, took 10 health, grabbed me, then respaned and did it again. But now, there a little easier. And don't even get me started on those damned dogs.

I love how well they managed to replicate the original game, but I'm not a fan of Jim's changed voice. I can see that they tried to get a voice similar to the original, but it just sounds weird to me.
The "Andy Asteroids" level looks pretty nice, I must admit, although it seems that it looks a bit more difficult to anticipate whether or not you'll hit asteroids compared to the original. So far, just from watching "New Junk City," I have some things to say: the hints are somewhat annoying, and the boss fights look easier by far. I think this was a good idea, but just put into the wrong hands. I know everything has to be prettier, but I'd just connect a laptop via HDMI cable to a TV and run an emulator of the original if I hadn't any other means.
Just miss Jim's original voice :(
It's very funny to hear "Ow!" in a southern accent at 4:45 lol 😂😂😂
I changed the setting to 240p for the heck of it, and now I feel like I am watching the 16 bit versions.

+antroloco24 Well, they messed up the voices, took frames of animation out, messed up the art, added in crude humor that shouldn't have been there (and yes, I know, Buttville. The original creators still had class though), ****ed up the soundtrack, stole a fish from Finding Nemo for Down the Tubes, stole fanart for the ending level score head, the physics are all wonky, the game's WAY too easy even on Veteran or whatever, the new content doesn't feel at all like it belongs, turned the Lawyers into Bankers for no reason in What the Heck, didn't understand how the Tex Avery-esque cartooniness worked, made Andy Asteroids practically unplayable, and didn't even contact anyone from the original team to help in its production.

Yeah, I can see that many fans of the original version of the game didn’t like this one either. By the time it was released, this “HD” remake already felt pretty stale, even by now too. It basically feels like an attempt to make a tribute (or at least a love letter) to the Earthworm Jim franchise after the two disasters that were EWJ3D and Menace 2 the Galaxy, but it failed miserably. But all I can just say is that there are some better video game remakes out there if you’re looking for a good one.
I don’t think SNES had that stomach stage with the little yellow stomach looking boss.
no one talkin about the ending? no ur'e the best and no cuscene!
Having watched a little more. It's amazing how the music in this sounds even more like low-quality synthy 16-bit audio than the original 16-bit versions of this game. Maybe they just dropped the 16-bit version's notes into a MIDI synthesizer and threw it in this game.

They just sound way too clear. You can practically hear the sound booth itself. I'm not saying games should never be remade in HD. I'm just saying that the parts have to match up

This remake looks nice, but isn't that great. They didn't have any of the original team work on this at all, nor approve of it, and it shows: everything looks new, but there's a huge lack of attention to detail and the game feels very unpolished and unloved. The voices in this are just awful. Even if they couldn't get the original voice actor (Doug TenNapel), couldn't the guy at least not sound so high-pitched and labored? The music is pretty bad too. I'm guessing that they couldn't license the original tracks from Tommy Tallarico and so they had to make some synthy crap version that loses the impact that 1990s video game music had.

Does this use a emulator? Because Xbox 360 always break so you might of used a emulator.
I'm surprised that publishers don't jump on this and look at the entire nes, snes, sega master system and sega genisis library and create hd remasters of classic games. There is a huge market for nostalgia and it is cheap to develop compared to AAA games. I read that this game sold approx 500,000 copies across psn and xbox live.
Bottom line: Don't screw around with a classic.

....yes it is a remake. They've completely redone the graphics and everything. And even then, it's very crappily done HD. They even cut ****ing frames out of the animations. The Genesis and Super Nintendo versions looked better. The only thing HD has going for it is some of the backgrounds.
SPOILER ALERT: EL final no es como el original. Falto la animacion donde jim llega donde la princesa, y le cae a ella la vaca que el lanzo al proncipio y la corona sale donde esta jim. Despues se rompe el risco y jim se lleva la corona sin que nadie lo vea.
