This game is going to be soooo good!

Now the only thing that could make this better is if they would bring back the beloved Worm. Everyone loves Worm, ev-ery-one!

I don't like Worm. Xd

Blasphemer!!!!

I'm excited to play Worm again. I think the real question is, will he still cacoon? And if he does, does he turn into a random monster with a worm sub, or into a Beachlon?


By Penguin God on Sunday, January 24, 2010 - 06:57 pm:

Unfortunately they still haven't brought my beloved worm back. Perhaps in the next installment if we get anoter one.

Have you guys played MR1? It seemed like every other CD made a Worm in that game...


By Penguin God on Monday, January 25, 2010 - 06:55 pm:

The way it should be Lisa, the way it should be!


By Rahu on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 - 08:27 am:

Funny you should mention it. You do get a lot of Worms, but that's not really a bad thing is it?

I've been replaying MR1 for nostalgia recently. Actually I just got my worm to cacoon, which was the one thing I never accomplished in that game before, thanks to the handy dandy info compiled on this great site!

The very first monster I've ever raised in any MR game was in MR1 a rainbow worm which coincidentally was off a CD... So ya I agree.


By Rahu on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 - 10:32 am:

My very first monster was a pure Jell. Man, I miss Jells.


By Penguin God on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 - 01:14 pm:

Old Jells were awesome! I don't know what happened to them in 3...well they got cute like all the others. They were pretty cool in 4 again, but they barely had any subbreeds so they became boring.

I have plenty of "fun" memories of Capella using it's dice attack and squishing my monsters into injuries...in fact it happened last night with my Shell Saurian.


By Rahu on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 - 06:20 pm:

One of my first monsters to make it to S rank in MR 2 was a Jell/Tiger. It was through more sheer dogged determination than anything. Back then I had never heard of this site and was still trying to play MR2 like it was MR1, so it was agonizingly difficult, lol.

Anyway, I remember how awesome it was when he would turn into a helicopter and fly around the ranch. Imagine my joy when he learned how to do that in combat! That's the kind of thing that made Jells great. They'd turn into something utterly absurd, like a big can of bug spray, or a helicopter complete with launching missiles.

I hope to see more things like that in the future.

I forgot about the big can of bug spray! XD
