* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: ''Worms 4: Mayhem'' is a particular case, as the game got an UpdatedRerelease as ''Worms: Ultimate Mayhem'', which includes content from ''Worms 3D'', updated graphics and better compatibility with modern systems, but also a few differences such as a completely new soundtrack and voice acted cutscenes, whereas the annellids in the original ''Worms 4'' spoke with their signature "me-me" language. ''Very'' nostalgic players who care more about the original experience rather than technical improvements will have a hard time finding copies of the old ''Worms 4'' since it hasn't seen yet a digital release.

* FranchiseZombie: ''Worms Armageddon'' was going to be the last in the series during its development and was also the last to involve the series creator Andy Davidson, who departed due to CreativeDifferences[[note]]Although he would temporarily return in 2012, just in time for the release of ''Revolution''[[/note]]. ''Armageddon'' was extremely successful and is still the most well-acclaimed entry, so the series would eventually continue with the release of ''World Party'', followed by more games down the line.

** At the end of the earpiece route of ''Infiltrating the Airship'', the government's helicopter can shoot a banana bomb at the Toppat's airship.
** In the Bounty/Operative route of ''Completing the Mission'', Henry can use the Suicide Bomber attack from ''Worms Armageddon'' against the Right Hand Man. He will even leave a [[InstantGravestone tombstone]].
** At the beginning of the Executive/Dead route of ''Completing the Mission'', Henry can use a ninja rope to climb a cliff. The game will then suddenly have ''Worms Armageddon'''s physics.
