nothing personal buddy but its people like you who make him regret quality work like MO

It's not that, I loved AO and AE, they were my favourite game. But, I still think he could have done better with MO. But, remember, Oddowrld wasn't intentionitly going to be made into games. I am happy that he has gone to movies, which I know he will have a much greater sucess with.

It was a bad idea to go to movies at this point. Not after two consecutive failures in the gaming industry.

I suppose you are refering to MO and SW?

Yes.

But who knows. Twelve Monkey's was a pretty strange movie but it did enormously well, and on a low budget.

Lord Vulcher 07-14-2006 06:46 AM

I think he won't leave the games buisness forever. He is bound to make more games if the fans demand them.

If the movie does well then he will get confidence back and money. so he will start making games again.

Jordan 07-15-2006 06:27 AM

I don't really like criticising Lorne, he's made the 6 games, and people should be happy about that, they should be patient when he isn't making games for a while, and should look forward to the movies that are coming, if they are a load of bull crap, then we criticise!!

I think I would die if he stopped making games all together.

he made only 4 games... what are the other 2 you are talking about?

Mudoko_Jedi 07-15-2006 10:45 PM

Maybe oddworld adventures 1 and 2.

Bullet Magnet 07-16-2006 12:43 AM

Those were Gameboy ports. Odd knows the reasoning behind that decision, but it was left to another developer to make them, following OWI's story loosely and using their art as well.

Jordan 07-16-2006 03:35 AM

Yeah, I meant Oddworld Adventures 1 and 2, do they count as proper games?

I don't think so. Don't they not count as a Gameboy version of AE and AO?

Xavier 07-16-2006 09:28 AM

yes, that's the idea... and if I remember well thoses were barely supervised by lorne an co
MO GBA's version was more supervised

I heard the Gameboy version of Munch was worse than the XBox version. Is that true?

Xavier 07-16-2006 11:53 AM

yes it is... I tryed to play it and I just couldn't go much longer after the first level because it was too boring

And the graphics look terrible. But it was the Gameboy I guess.

Bullet Magnet 07-16-2006 12:10 PM

I thought the Gameboy Munch was released on the Advanced?

Jordan 07-16-2006 12:27 PM

Yes, it was, but the graphics do look pretty bad, I've never played it before, but it does actually look boring, but an Oddworld game is an Oddworld game, and if I had it I'd still try and complete it.

Bullet Magnet 07-16-2006 03:14 PM

I heard that Munch's slow hopping gait was even more apparent and annoying in the GBA version than the XBox original.

Jordan 07-18-2006 06:51 AM

His hopping is a nightmare on the Xbox version, but there's water on the GBA version, which is pretty good, at least you won't have Munch hopping about all the time.

Bullet Magnet 07-18-2006 07:13 AM

Um, there was water in the XBox one too! And a wheelchair. The blessed wheelchair!

Jordan 07-20-2006 10:31 PM

I know there was water on the Xbox, but like people say Munch is even worse on the GBA version, so we're lucky they programmed water.

Mudoko_Jedi 07-20-2006 10:52 PM

what do you mean?

Nate 07-21-2006 04:21 AM

He's saying that whilst Munch's hopping is irritating in the Xbox game, it's even worse in the GBA game. Thus it is a good thing that there is plenty of water in the latter game as swimming is more fun than hopping.

Sassenach 07-21-2006 06:48 AM

I never found the hopping to be irritating.

Mudoko_Jedi 07-21-2006 04:20 PM

I did the sound and the slowness annoyed the crap out of me.
