That's right, one of my all time favorite games is coming to Xbox Live Arcade soon, in HD. :rockout:

Here is the first trailer with game footage and the debut of a "I Love Jim" sweepstakes by Gameloft.

I loved Road Rash. Me and my brother wasted many hours on that game beating the hell out of each other.
That would be so much fun to play online.

Road Rash on the 3DO was the best one IMO. I don't have enough points for EWJ HD but I should come friday :)

I downloaded it this morning and played the first level and LOVED it! It's good ol' Jim the way I remember, just with amazingly cool graphics. Who knew EWJ could look this good.

Co-op anyone?

same, after playing the demo, it just doesn't "do" anything for me like it did back in the day. I'll wait till its on sale for 5$.

Game is pretty solid, in my view, but I thought the co-op was incredibly terrible and unecessary...

All the achievements for the game (overall) were pretty fun to get, though... I hope they put out Earthworm Jim 2 HD, and then possibly even make a brand new Earthworm Jim (in 2d) which could act as a sequel to EWJ3D, released on XBL...
