Wait! Im confused, im getting the impresion that Fearitales and Hobitales are a part of Hand of Odd? Is this right?

What do you think, Cullen?

As I have said befotre, Hand of Odd is supposed to be the first installment in the Habbitales series. Good god.

I think we are all going by really old news I mean we don't even know if there will even be any more Oddworld. Heck If we ever see Oddworld again those title will most likely no longer exist and something new would be introduced to us. I am farely convinced that those title are no more and just old concepts that never even made it to the drawing board.

everything that we can say now is just speculation since no one has some real news...
so what's the point ? :p

Because speculation is interesting and can be fun.

No it's not. It only leads to mindless guessing that isn't based on anything...

Well, it's certainly based on many things.

Of course speculation is interesting - throwing back and forth theories and debating on possibilities/likliness. GOD has survived off it enough times in the past.

^You betcha.^

But speculation is wearing thin as of late. We need some new info, and soon. Ugh.

well i too havent played any of the x-box oddworlds.i was dissapoined when i heard about MO because i was hoping that they would give us a resolution about all the captured muddocons shown in the happy end of AE.i do not think we will ever see that.and changing the characters all the time doesnt help with bonding with the games,nor giving a sence of resolution

A resolution about captive Mudokons? Abe was rescuing Mudokons in Munch's Oddysee. Those in AE's good ending weren't in any specific place, they were simply representative of the fact that the Mudokons were far from a free people.

There's nothing official on the matter. There are no likely rumours either.

Though Munch's Exoddus is probably the logical step forwards for a Quintology game, it is unlikely to be done because:
-Munch's Oddysee was received very badly (at least by the fans). Another Munch game is likely to have negative connotations.
-Munch's Oddysee screwed up the story a lot - much will need to be altered from any original vision, which OWI might not be happy with.
-OWI have gravitated towards non-Quintology titles, but ones with more action, in recent years. Most people consider Stranger to be a better game than Munch's Oddysee, and even Lorne prefers it over all others.
-Since the release of Munch's Oddysee, many people, both gaming journalists, other developers, fans and general consumers have looked down upon OWI's decision to cast a one legged fish as the main character.

If we go back to the Quintology, I'd bet that it would be the 3rd hero's story. However, I think the Quintology will be reserved for film or much more advanced technology coupled with cheapter production costs.

Lorne Lanning has given no committment to any of the new consoles yet; it's possible an Oddworld game is released for any of the three.

What the hell are you talking about? MO was a great ****ing game.

Icarus, I'm afraid shrink was totally right n this one :(

What the hell are you talking about? MO was a great ****ing game.

We may think so, but unfortunately gaming critics and the gaming public didn't agree, which is understandable. It turns out there just wasn't a big market for games that let you take control of a fish.
