So, does the DVD only include in-game movies? What about extras like Use Yur Imagination, Get Freaky, Never before seen cinematics...etc?

from all the games NDW, I hope there will be extras, like trailers and such :p

Parafox 11-19-2004 06:35 PM

Well, I really want the DVD, But I don't have an X-Box so can't get the game (even though it's american so it wouldn't play here anyway).

I want that DVD soooooooooooooo bad.

Read message above first for info about me not being a new member. Dearest BenFaull I think you might be able to get a DVD in a couple of months off ebay. But don't worry you might be able to specialty order them from EA gmaes.

I've seen all of your posts. In at least 50% of them, you stated that you weren't a new member. That you've been here for a while.
We GET IT. Stop saying it, please. Please!
Because in all honestly, I can tell you that very few of us need to be told that in 6 out of your 8 posts, and really, very few of us care.

Edit: I was mistaken. In EVERY F*CKING SINGLE POST that you typed here, you say "I'm an Oddworld creature" or "I'm a veteran."
If it continues, I'm sure that the Mods will take action, because you're pretty much spamming the forums.

Odd Trusting 11-20-2004 06:29 AM

Well if you kinda knew who I was before you would see WHY I need to state it (plus I hope somebody can remind me of my account name if somebody knows it). Come on guys why are we posting, for Oddworld sake so get back on track on Oddworld news

OANST 11-20-2004 06:44 AM

I'm actually thinking about cancelling my order. I expected them to take the money out of my account when I ordered it but they didn't. I think they are waiting for the games release to do that. Problem is I don't know how much I'll have in there when it comes time. grrrrr.

Odd Trusting 11-20-2004 07:43 AM

Thanks for getting us back on track old and not so tasty. I think I know what you mean it did the same thing to me, I mean we could always buy it in stores and then go shopping on Ebay couple of months later to see if someone put their DVD up for bid. I would maybe wait or try and contact them about it old and not so tasty (please forgive me if you have already done this) hope I was helpful, sorry if I wasn't

Alcar 11-20-2004 11:15 PM

Old and not so tasty, which type did you order?

If it was the Limited Edition, it should say on the page that for this 'type', the money AUD$200 would be withdrawn sometime in December. For the softcover and hardcover books, the money was withdrawn instantly. What I'm doing is making sure that my Father has more than two hundred dollars in his account at all times :p

he's not talking about the books alcar, he's talking about the game on the eb website.




Oh, and Odd Trusting I think I can remind you of your username: it was Alpha wasn't it? You certainly seem to have a similar IQ and control over grammar and spelling.

sorry but was this realy necessary? :fuzblink:

Nate 11-22-2004 12:36 PM

Perhaps I could have put it more politely but I feel confident that they are in fact one and the same person.

Odd Trusting 11-22-2004 01:05 PM

No no that wasn't it was another natural Oddworld related name. Oh and the spelling, I mean I don't have school here I had to learn on my own. I can take the comdy about it as long as it isn't meant to be mean.

Incognito 11-22-2004 01:06 PM

This DVD sounds intriguing, but I'm slightly worried by Alf and AA's silence over the possibility of this offer being extended to those outside of the US borders.

Parafox 11-22-2004 11:50 PM

So, Do we know if it is region free of is it america's region no.(whatever that is)

Alcar 11-23-2004 12:29 AM

Odd Trusting's other account wasn't Alpha. I know the proper account name ;) As for my mishap. Whoops! I must have been reading the art book release thread at the same time.

Yet, I still haven't been given an answer as to whether the bonus disk will make it to other countries. It is extremely unfair. I hope that this isn't a case of America is first priority. Because that goes against all Oddworldian ethics.

I think that it is just a mistake. Because the name is good, with wrath I mean, so it isn't old.

Alcar 11-23-2004 10:19 PM

It could be that the store simply updated the name for the Xbox version, which may have been linked to the PlayStation 2 version. Seems simple, one data entry for two games, the only things differing are console and pricing. They've just forgotten to remove the redundant PS2 record.

It's common for online stores to create pre-order pages long before a release date for a product is announced. Remember IGN had pre-orders of "Oddworld 4" around the start of the year with an incorrect release date? I think some stores do it to try and get sales quickly. Although I don't know what they do if the game isn't released [say it is cancelled] or it is delayed. Maybe they just haven't charged the credit card yet.

I'm still undecided as to whether to pre-order. I still haven't asked my friend if she has an EB in her area [she doesn't live in a big area]. A better option may try to grab the DVD off eBay, as I'm sure many people will end up with it who might just watch it once and then not have an interest for it anymore.

I remember that, and we had members who had actually pre-ordered it too. Actually, do those pre-orders still exist, or are valid? Anyway, the main problem with that pre-order site, is that it shows the new title of the game for the PlayStation 2 - when the new title was announced after the Xbox exclusivity was re-instated.

It looks like I'll have to go with eBay as well. I don't want to have to buy the game in the NTSC version only to have to get the PAL game as well.

Fuzzle Guy 11-25-2004 06:42 AM

I wish you could just buy the DVD without the game, it's not that I dunt want the game, it's just, my X box won't play American disks, but I have a DVD player that will play American DVDS

Xavier 11-25-2004 09:24 AM

^ like Fuzzle Guy
but I dougt they will sell the dvd alone... :s

Oddish 11-25-2004 10:01 AM

I think you should albe to get the DVD alone, I realy think so. Mabey something like a 2nd hand shop, you just for the DVD.
