Worms Armageddon under Virtual PC

Wrapping up on the Worms series of games we come to Worms Armageddon . This game is very similar to Worms World Party - but once again with slightly better graphics and slightly more polish. Worms Armageddon can run just fine under Windows 2000 / Windows XP - but what I am interested in is that it also runs fine under Virtual PC :-)

There is little that needs to be done to get this working - except for to disable the mouse integration functionality provided by the Virtual Machine Additions (as this causes problems with playing Worms).

One interesting thing to know about Worms Armageddon is that it is one of the favorite games of one of our test leads - and as a result gets the most thorough testing of any of the computer games out there.

Cheers,
Ben

  Worms Armageddon is one of my favorite games of all time. I'm looking forward to playing it again on OS X with Virtual PC!
  
  Thanks for all your work testing it!
