Hurrr.... the only Oddworld game I have is the Playstation one.

I know there's a sequel, and that they were released for the PC as well, but lost track of them after that.

I read one of the original with the guy who designed it, from just after Oddworld was released, when he was talking about being constrained by the hardware and how in the future he would want to design the game for a system which didn;t yet exist in order to have his vision restricted less even at the cost of having to wait for hardware to catch up with his creativity.

I was just wondering how that all went for him ?

:P this is the worst forum software i have ever seen in my whole life.

It has been refusing to let me make this post, but what i am trying to say is that i typoed... and should have said "I've seen one of the original interviews with the guy who designed Oddworld" , rather than accidentally missing out the word "interviews"

I keep being told :

" Your HTML is not well-formed - no valid tags were found."

Is this a known bug of this forum ?

Sometimes when it does it, putting in an arbitrary quote box at the start helps... but at other times it just says the same thing (like now) :P lame

:-/ THEN it just goes on ahead and slaps out that post with no HTML tage in it at all, after whining so much about the one i was trying to post to begin with *sigh* laaa-aaa-ame.

I'm guessing that you guys most likely encounter this bug the whole time, so won;t need me to explain it any further.

Stranger's Wrath was awesome. I still need to get Munch's Oddysee for Xbox, though.

strangers wrath is pretty good. The level design is superb. The way the levels are all linked up is clever. I think it is slightly over rated, but then, i am playing it in 2008, not 2005 when it was released.

At the moment they're making a movie called Citizen Siege there's an interview with the co-creators about it here on gamespot.

Oddworld is only making movies now. It's a shame for gaming, but then I bet the movies are good.

Both XBOX games were great games too. As original, funny and inventive as the earlier stuff. I highly recommend them, and I bet they are backwards compatible on the 360.

Honestly, I didn't think it was overrated at all. I heard a lot of good things about it, but not that much. It is probably one of the better games I own for the Xbox. The game grew on me through the experience.

I love the oddworld series,the first two games are very unique and quirky,i have alot of great memories from playing those games.I also enjoyed the first xbox title,while it is great,it's really different from the 2d games,so it makes oddworld 3 less original but it's still great nevertheless.Never played the fps odd-world,again it's totally different from the past games,so when you say tge oddworld series,you really mean 3 different types of genres.

Oddworld was supposed to be a 5 part series (oddworld 1 being the first and only chapter in the series,the rest are deemed as sub-games in the oddworld franchise),but the series seems to off been put on hold indefinitely.I would love to see a sequel in the form of the original two oddworld games though,perhaps on xbox live/psn/pc.
