Good 2D platformers come round rarely these days so I was so happy when this game hit the shelves.
User Rating: 8.4 | Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee PC
Abe's Odyssey was so much different from the games of its time (for starters it's 2D when games started going 3D), it put original characters in an original setting and with an original concept. You play as Abe of the Mudoken race who are happily slaves for the Gulukons (and by happy I mean they obey or are beaten by Sligs). But Abe finds out the Glukon's secret plan which causes him to rebel (well run) and to try and release and free his Muddoken friends. This game can be played almost perfectly and the possess function works a dream. The graphics are ok but they look a little rough. The sounds of the environment and the creatures of Oddworld are great. Unfortunately there is only the game but I'll add that if you do not do so well on your first completion there is a better ending to be seen. The first in the Oddworld series is amazing there are few like it.
