Anyone know which worms titles i can buy that work on windows 7 without downloading any patches?

I have just got Armageddon but it wont work on windows 7 and im a bit sceptical about downloading patches because ive got virus's from doing this before

a quick response would be helpful

thanks

Worms Armageddon does work on Windows 7 with the official beta update.
Get it from the official WA website and you definitely won't get a virus.

Also, Worms Reloaded works on Windows 7.
It's available on Steam exclusively.

But since you already own Worms Armageddon, and it's the wackier and more versatile game, I suggest you try that first.

Downloading patches for WA and from official WA website should be completely safe.

Some antivirus might still report them as false positive, might be that you experienced.

Yeah, these are those "good" antiviruses, which are suspecting a trojan in their own executable, going to autodestruction one day ;]

@ meg_imp You can download official W:A Beta Patches without any risk. I'm on Win7 too and it's all safe.
