Thank you. At least now we have a release day. Was kind of hoping it would be released this thursday though, oh well.

I have to say though, this site is for the UK. The UK Has a seperate PSN store than the US, so is it possible it may come to the PSN US earlier than the UK's PSN store?
Thanks

From that link:
:

And if THAT hasn’t tickled your Oddworld-bone, than I know what will. A little birdy told me today that, “Rupture Farms is turning on the lights again!”. Take it how you want, but after last year’s announcement of a new President taking on Oddworld Inhabitants, we here at VGR Network are definitely getting our hopes up of seeing Abe gracing our gaming world once again.

It seems the 21st release is correct, I suppose on all regions?

However it has only been confirmed on the PS3 (http://gamerlimit.com/2009/10/oddwor...tober-21-2009/

That's the main source.

The whole reason I want it to be released is so I can play it on my PSP, and have it on the go. I Guess I just have to hope and pray it will be released for the PSP too.

Only 2 weeks, so not too bad I suppose.

Something else I noted, but minor:
It says they will be released October 21st, which falls on a wednesday. But the PSN store is only updated on thursdays, so they will actually be available on the 22nd

What I don't understand is this:
One source there is from the UK , they use british pounds. The other source is from the US. Both have the same release date. Does this mean it will be released in the UK *and* the US on the same date?

Thanks

Apparently the same little bird talked to us

:

The factory at Rupture Farms is starting to turn on the lights. Can't tell you what is up but it will be fun.
We don't have anything more at the moment, and I won't lie: I'm excited.

Xx_Abe_xX 10-13-2009 07:31 AM

So am I! I'm telling everyone who will listen about it. I already bought 20$ for the PSN so I can get it the second it's out^^.

*Fangirl squeak*

The re-birth of RuptureFarms 1029? Or the dawn of another one? SUSPENCE!

ESRB has rated them as well, and oddworld's creator Lanning said they signed the contract and should come to PSN 'very soon'.

Be aware though its actually the 22nd, the games get uploaded on PSN on wednesday but don't go live until the next day.

Xx_Abe_xX 10-14-2009 10:14 AM

Yes! Only 8 days! WOOOOOOOO! Are there going to be any kinds of changes or anything to the game itself?

Wil 10-14-2009 12:05 PM

Almost certainly not.

marlz 10-15-2009 12:15 AM

SWEET! Can't wait!

OddYouko 10-17-2009 11:08 AM

Awesome news!! :D

Xx_Abe_xX 10-26-2009 07:56 AM

Oh my freaking god it's just as epic as I thought! It's as if Chuck Norris punched me with a fist of excitement! Anyone agree with me?

Xavier 10-26-2009 08:44 AM

Did someone buy it and play it on the PS3 or PSP?

Does it have any extra stuff like trophies?

Software Bug 10-26-2009 02:11 PM

Anyone planning on writing a review or just a quick list of some features that differ from the original version?

Wil 10-26-2009 02:39 PM

Way to check before asking.

They're basically exactly the same as the original, only you have to configure your own controls, but it's still just as fun. If you don't have it, get it. It's nice that Abe became portable(with the exception of the GB games, caught myself there).

OANST 10-27-2009 08:24 AM

But are there trophies?

erwinraaben55 10-27-2009 01:03 PM

No, there are never trophies for classic psx games

SparkErosion 10-27-2009 02:03 PM

Why is it called PSx? What's the x for?

PSX (PlayStation Experimental) was an internal code name for the PlayStation during development.

OANST 10-30-2009 06:47 AM

Sort of like when you look at the code on your ds, it says NTR. The ds's code name was nitro.

its pirate or original?

Wil 11-10-2009 03:51 AM

There is no release date for it in Europe, but hopefully soon.

OANST 11-10-2009 05:59 AM

I was going to buy it the other day, but Walmart didn't have any of the twenty dollar PSN cards. They had plenty of fifty dollar cards, but I had no intention of spending that much.

Wait to buy it... seriously. The Oddworld Library might have something for the members quite soon.
