Come on.... be nice... :crying:

Oh, don't be so melodramatic, it's no big deal. Didn't you see the attempted smiley? :p

Mhm... :dodgy: :blush:

I sense a topic highjacking. :p

So many retarded theories... listen to Max and Xav, they know what they're talking about, you* don't.

*Everyone in general who is making wrong speculations.

??? Whatcha talkin' 'bout there, Rich? Topic hijacking? :confused:

i thikn he menas trying to take over the topic or sumthin like that

Indeed he does.

On-topic, I don't think SW will be the last game.

Of course it won't. Leorne and co. are just trying something different for awhile. They'll be back eventually, and we can get back to destroying the Magog Cartel economic system. :p

Lorne allready said he has intresting ideas for the next gen consoles...
so I'm sure we will see some OW games on them ;)

Yeah ,Oddworld hasn't quit the gaming business.

wow i actualy knew wat he ment

:spam:

Anyway, I'm really anticipating the next Oddworld game. C'mon, guys... make a good one. :D

Yes, I, too, am anticipating the next Oddworld game. I'm even more excited that we will probably not know what game they will be working on (if they ever get back to that field-I mean, OWI lay surprises on us sometimes! :D). Anyway, like several other people have said, the last quintology game is supposed to be a game with 5 heroes (Abe and Munch included) fighting to completely overthrow the Magog Cartel. (At least that's what I think.) I, too, also heard that they would move into a big city-like place in the end like several others have, but really, this game is WAY too far away to be speculating now-we don't even have the third quintology game yet! :D Oh well, it's still fun to talk about it, though. ;)

woops
anywase they have 2 make hand of odd some day i mean that looks like the best game they would ever mak

As a Mod I'm asking you to avoid chatspeak here - Xavier ;)

Anyway, Hand of Odd did look good, but I prefer action/adventure to RTS any day.

I don't care as long as it's on more than one gaming system.
EA had the right idea with a PS2 Stranger. But no, down the bloody drain again...

woops why do i always use chatspeak
ya that sucked wen i found out sttranger was an X-box exclusive i saw it at tardet and and i asked them if they had the ps2 version because i hadnt heard any knews about it and then i read on the box it was an X-box exclusive

Good question. A better one would be why you don't use grammar, good spelling or ever contribute anything interesting or constructive.

I'm not 100% sure about this but I think the quintology only occurs on mudos. The rest of Oddworld will only be explored in other games.

I'm sorry to be such a naysayer, but "interesting ideas" doesn't mean a company in exsistence. It doesn't mean a game contract or a movie in production. It doesn't mean Squeeq's Oddysee in my hands or an Oddworld movie at the local cineplex. It doesn't mean that Oddworld still exsists as anything more than some morphine-dream like epic in Lanning's head. Yeah,thats right, phukk me, I'm always naysaying. But Microsoft was burned and so was EA Games, mostly through their own fault, but they were burned nonetheless. Oh, and the mass firings and all around bullshit and doublespeak that LL is known for (whether you believe LL deserves it or not) isn't going to start a company up and it will definately hurt the chances of any future games being made.

[QUOTE=Nate_dog_woof]Good question. A better one would be why you don't use grammar, good spelling or ever contribute anything interesting or constructive.[QUOTE]cuz im dumb

That's not an excuse. Use a friggin' dictionary. And how dumb do you have to be to not know how to press the Shift button?

i + Shift = I. It's quite simple.

I agree.
Unless you're at least 7 years old, or suffer from a mental deficiancy, there's no excuse for slopping all over the keyboard like that and calling it a post.

nope not a retard like u guys but defently not very smart

We're not retards, actually.

The quintology will be done in other forms of media. All of your theories are simply based off of old Oddworld facts that seemingly changed over the years. You guys are constantly repeating yourselves all the time.

I am fairly convinced that Lorne's vision "ie Oddworld" will be done so much more differently than what all of you seem to expect in the comming years ahead. New ideas that we haven't begun to imagine. In the business of creative work things are constantly on go meaning technology is constantly changeing and old concepts seem to be left in the dust to bring forth a new and improved vision.

You can say Oddworld is becomming new and improved! Thats at least what I am getting out of this.

Hey, we do repeat ourselves. It's because we've got no new news to go on.WEll, we do have news, its just news about how boned OWI is. I just saw Stranger's Wrath at a 40% dicount at the local mall a few months after its release. I just wish that people in the know would give us something concrete. Stop jerking us off and give us a press release.

Agreed, Statikk. If people are kept in the dark too long, they will lose interest and drift off to other things, because it's difficult to wait on the edge of your seat when there is no end in sight to the waiting. They need to hook people's attention during this critical period of transition.

No, I heard that they messed up fer the PS2, so signed up on teh Microsoft contract. I fergot's where I got's that stuff, but I heard 'bout it.
And like's I said, I hope Lorne keeps up the good work! :) :D

No one called you retarded or dumb. That was you.

Anyway, if you're going to insult someone, back it up. None of us have done anything stupid. And you're still typing in chatspeak. Clean it up, buddy.

Anyway, I totally agree with the above posts. Us fans need some info to cling on, even it if it's something like, "Ummm.... yeah, we're thinking about putting some characters into some kind of story.... yeah." Just some tidbit of info to keep us out of the dark.

I agree with him. We are not retarded. Besides, 'retarded' means that someone is either mentally challenged or has a mental disability (or handicapped). It doesn't mean that anyone is stupid. There's a difference. ;) And besides, it's like Kimon said-no one was calling you dumb or stupid, so don't get so offended.
Anyway, back on topic. I agree with Statikk HDM and Sapphire on this. We shouldn't be kept in the dark because for one thing, it can get a bit confusing for the fans, and another, like Sapphire has said, people will lose interest eventually. From everything that Lorne has stated about Oddworld's move to the new media, I'm still a bit baffled because he also basically said that they aren't exactly leaving the game industry. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens. :)
