My dad originally bught me Abe's Oddysee arund the time it first came out. I think I was about 7 at the time, and we both enjoyed playing it together. My dad probably enjoyed because he used to (And probably still does) love video games. Heck, he let me play DOOM when I was just a toddler. I can assure you, I accquired a taste of games well before I became the movie buff I am now.
My mom has never been into home gaming (However, she absolutely loves arcade games, both classic and new). However, she thought Oddworld was a funny game, with some pretty whimsical stuff going on. Fast-forward to 2004, I bring out my old Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee PC disk (Which still runs to this day!) and play it for a while. I had forgotten how much fun I had with the strategy o this 2D side-scroller. I decided to keep an eye out for Abe's Exoddus. I was disappointed to not find it in stores as new anywhere. When I was on the verge of resorting to buying it off the web (Probably e-bay), I found it in our local Game Crazy. It was used, but it only cost me 4 bucks anyway, so I bought it. Rewind to 2002, I had played Munch's Oddysee, and it didn't have much of the stuff I truly enjoyed from the first two games, so I decided to save my money, and not buy an X-Box (Which I was surprised it wasn't on the PC). After finding out about Stranger's Wrath, I decided to hold out until I can try it somewhere. I still haven't tried it, but I'm waiting. When the Oddworld movie comes out, I can assure you I will try my very best to get the first showing in my area possible. |

Doesn't that mean that LV gets a 2 week ban?
Anyway, my mum didn't like the game at first. Mainly because it was very gory, including the beginning of AO. Also, my dad also thought that I shouldn't be playing those kind of games. But like my story on Oddworld, my parents bought me the game since they thought that I was mature enough to have a game like AO. My mom still doesn't like that there is an incredible amount of gore in the games, but she likes that it influences my imagation. My dad doesn't really express his opinion, but he does say things like, 'Why don't you do this' when I'm playing AO. Well, he's not suggesting to stop playing, but rather to help me out. |
Ha, your parents remind me of of my father and step mother.
|
My parents don't know anything about Oddworld, but they won't let me buy the PC version of AO, seeing as I have it on the PS. >.<
|
I don't see much difference between the PS and PC version of AO,
so I think it's a waste of money. |
brace yourselves, another gaming history...
round about when i was five, dad got AE. since i was young (and in public school) i didn't care, except when dad made the sligs go "blech", or when abe farted. then when i was eight, i was digging through the old game pile, and i saw oddworld. i played it, allthough i could only get past the first few screens. two years later, i was able to figure out that AE was the second game, and convinced dad to buy me the games. mum didn't give a flying scrab $hit what i played (GTA), but dad loved it, and played with me. last year, i finally got an x-box and munch's oddysee for my birthday. dad did alot of deep thinking on the game, and decided that it was good for the brain (puzzles!). in fact, he saw the ultra value and quality of the seiries, that he made it a part of my homeschool routine! i loved it! i finally mosied over to the forums and found ultimate happieness and infinate information, (compared to the deserted chat rooms, filled with jacka$$es of course). and that's the story of how i joi --- i mean what my parents thought of oddworld. *he heh!* -.^' |
My parents don't like them because of the "gloomy and bad monsters" there.
But my sister has an other reason. When she came in room I was playing SW. In the moment she came in she heard: "Get them pants off!" And she was shocked: "What the...?!" and left immediately. But somehow it made me grin anyway :D Edit: I endeavored to persuade her. I tried to tell her: "It's not what you think it is! They only wanted to have a look at his legs!" Well, she said: "Yeah, right. :dodgy:" But I think, she knows that I said her the truth... |
Lol, it was a pretty bad time for your sister to walk in on that moment in the game, or were you just watching the movie on the movie selection menu?
|
I don't remember this. That was some months ago.
|
*snicker* my cousin thinks this place is nuts, nuckin' futz! *snicker*

Oddworld. Matter of fact, she hasn't played a videogame on a console since I got my first PS1 games when I was six or seven, maybe eight at the most. |
actually, my parents came up with that word.
|
wow mega-mud that's surprising. My parents are just indifferent about the games, but my mom likes Abe and thinks he's cute for some reason. This is funny, because my grandma is hungarian and really old and really behind the times. She came over one time and I was playing a game, and she has no concept of video games, and she thinks you just watch them. :p Then whats the controller for!!!!
|
My dad is a big oddworld fan though the only game he's played is Munch's oddysee cause the others are 2 hard for him. My mom is indifferent about video games in general.
