Links, evidence, anything to corroborate these extraordinary claims? I'm sure the collective net of OWF's most attentive fans is not perfect, but still...

Xavier 04-23-2008 11:48 PM

I agree with BM, I'd love to see it, any info about that interview would be awesome

MeechShrykull1029 04-24-2008 02:38 PM

I don't think you will understand the interview, it's in Russian.

Leto 04-24-2008 04:47 PM

Lorne speaks russian now?

Well, since you seem competent enough in the english department, surely you could summarise the interviews main points, when the interview took place, and what publication it was in?

or you could not be a little fibber! nyeh nyeh nyeh.

MeechShrykull1029 04-24-2008 05:08 PM

Oh, I forgot. A Pussian site interviewed him, I just forgot what language it was in.

Leto 04-24-2008 05:15 PM

You didn't directly answer any of my questions.

You're about 13, which is excusable, so if you want an out here's your chance; if not, please provide a link to the website, show us excerpts of the interview and provide citations, or please stop wasting our time.

It is in Russian.

OddYouko 04-25-2008 04:11 PM

Cool now I'll see if I can read it.
Thanks for the link Dark Hood.

EDIT.

Bullet Magnet 04-25-2008 04:41 PM

Aww, Max, that's that for Nod, it seems. Why the hell hasn't this come around in English before?

DarkHoodness 04-25-2008 04:51 PM

I translated the page on Babelfish. :P It's just about readable.

Lorne didn't say that he might release the cancelled games. He just said what we already know, that OWI still own the rights to all the projects they started and created, should they ever wish to do something with them one day in the future.

:

[ Igromaniya ] of the abolished games in you it is much more than released. This Oddworld: SligStorm, Oddworld: Munch's Exoddus, Oddworld: Squeek's Oddysee, Oddworld: Nod's Oddysee, Oddworld: Hand of Odd, The Brutal Ballad of Fangus Klot. Maybe, you will describe that these were for the games and which of them did happen?

[ Lorn ] well, this commonplace: ideas there are always many, and here forces and resources to their realization do not always be sufficient. Here and it is necessary to select - what to bring to the end, and that - to throw on half way. Specific reasons in each case were different.

A good news consists in the fact that we preserved for ourselves all rights to all our games, so that we can still and return to some projects. Only cross out from list Oddworld: Nod's Oddysee - such game not there was never, this is some rumor, apparently, it was.


Xavier 04-26-2008 03:52 AM

ouch, well, so much for Nod...

thanks for the interview

MeechShrykull1029 04-26-2008 06:43 AM

I still think that Munch's Exoddus is the second to most likely unreleased game to com out (the most likely one is Squeek's Oddysee).

GlukkonGluk 05-04-2008 11:50 AM

Sorry, but back there Xavier mentioned that they are working on Oddysee movies... oddysee plural...oddysee more than one... oddysee abe & munch? Am i close to the truth? However if CS won't be out till 2010, i wont get excited yet... besides, i've learned not to because, knowing OWI, its bound 2 get cancelled or changed or something... i think they plan too far ahead

Wings of Fire 05-04-2008 11:55 AM

The eventual aim of OWI is to bring out all the Quintology in movie form; as originally intended.

The wait might not be as long as you'd think because after CS (hopefully) becomes a hit we'll be looking at Lorne having a lot more influence and moolah in the movies department.

MeechShrykull1029 05-04-2008 12:10 PM

There will be more Oddworld games than movies in the next 5 years, and based on how long Citizen Siege is in development, I think that the wait for the Abe's Oddysee movie will be more than 2 years long, which is, in my opinion, a very long time.

Psychonaut 05-04-2008 10:41 PM

Sherry McKenna seems a bit old on that photo....

MeechShrykull1029 05-05-2008 04:49 PM

I usually don't care about who makes the games, I just like the games.

AAAWWWW.....
Oh, I forgot a Gabbit on a burner...
Thats disgusting...

MeechShrykull1029 05-06-2008 03:01 PM

It would be cool to see games coming out regularly based on the TV show.

What do you mean by that???

MeechShrykull1029 05-06-2008 03:06 PM

The Oddworld TV show will come out. There will probably be games based on this TV show coming out regularly.

Psychonaut 05-06-2008 03:07 PM

Hev you any link to info about that TV show?? It is some kind of Reality Show??

MeechShrykull1029 05-06-2008 03:11 PM

Psychonaut 05-06-2008 03:14 PM

Yes, I was thinking you mean "show", like TV show. This articel is about TV series. It would be great if they create Tv animated series based on Oddworld.


"There's not a whole lot I can reveal. We've got four projects that we are working on. I can't really get into them, except you know one of them is the film. I can say that another one is the television series, and we are using game technology on all of them."

Last year, Lanning and partner Sherry McKenna signed a development deal for a computer animated motion picture based upon another creation--Citizen Siege. But Lanning hasn't forgotten about Abe, Munch, and the rest.

"Oddworld is really, really close to our heart, which is why we chose never to sell it, and we have big plans for it.

"It may take longer than the fans would like, but I think they'll be happy as long as it is great stuff.



NJow this sounds really Interesting......

MeechShrykull1029 05-06-2008 03:48 PM

That's another one of the reasons I think Munch's Exoddus will come out eventually. He also mentioned "the rest", so I think that there will be more Stranger games.

Psychonaut 05-06-2008 03:50 PM

Noo, not another Stranger games.... If they want to produce such games, they have to convert it also on PC...

MeechShrykull1029 05-06-2008 03:55 PM

Why not more Stranger games? Maybe Stranger can meet Abe and Munch, so it would be better.

Do you like my hat? It's made of MONEY!

MeechShrykull1029 05-06-2008 04:43 PM

It would be cool to read the Tips and Tricks preview of Stranger's Revenge or something.

Wings of Fire 05-06-2008 04:55 PM

Why would Stranger want revenge? He got what he wanted at the end of Stranger's Wrath, surely any title following this rather boring and formulaic approach would be entitled 'Sekto's Revenge'?
