Why didn't anyone tell me...

I could download Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus from PSN? I've been reduced to watching speedruns and walkthroughs on YouTube to satiate my nostalgia.

Pulling an all-dayer!

Yeah, you've only been able to for over a year now. Understandable.

I once made my cousins watch me beat AE in one sitting. They haaaaated we for it for awhile.

They live over an hour away and had nothing else to do. We also melted one of those green army men, kinda made up for it.

And this is when I was a fat weenie who wore Hawaiian shirts all day, so I was about as intimidating as an adequate pickle.

It's pretty crappy on the PAL PSN; the resolution isn't great and there are black borders around the screen. Why the hell don't you have it on Steam?

I'll get it on Steam when they release a Linux client.

Yeah it isn't the best resolution, but I'm still enjoying it. I don't have Steam, really dislike computer controls.

Woah! Computer controls are the best!
I really hated playing Oddworld on the playstation.

Xbox was a bit better but still.... I'd have enjoyed the games on the computer more.

Well that was very anti-climatic. 2 Mudokons missing from the game entirely, and I can't even finish the Boardroom because the noose/pulley is also missing

As in you missed 2 Mudokons, or they were actually not where they were meant to be? Hint: The first one is the believable one. As for the missing ring pull, that's a frequent bug in the PS version. Don't recall ever seeing it on the PC port.

I'm fairly sure they were missing - I know the spot where I had imagined them to be. Confirmed this with walkthroughs that also reference it, yet it's not in my version.

As for the missing pull ring, I never had that problem any of the times I played AO on PS1.

Every time I play Exoddus, I end up missing two Muds. It's annoying.

@Alcar Which two Muds?

Still haven't played either of the PS1 games, I feel as if I robbed Chubfish.

Once again, it was due to a missing pull ring.
