My favourite are Paramites... they're so deceptive. It's like : Hey! A Paramite! Lets follow it! Aaaargh.... more of them!"

Paramites are cool. They're my favourite 'cause they're spider, dog, crab, and... thing. :P

…and hyena. ;)

Hyena? Lol... how are they hyena?

Their social behaviour is modelled on hyenas’, just as Scrabs’ are modelled on lions’, and Meeches’ are modelled on wolves’.

How do you know this stuff!?

Years and years of reading evey interview and bit on info he could find on the net :p

boombatz and elum and maybe steef, expecially elum. he was my fav speacies since I first saw him in AO.
I like interns and vykers in a strange way, and sligs, but expecially interns, they remind me of myself, expecially with the music constantly on.

Fleeches, they remind me of my sister. (always on my case)

Even though you are probably right on that I don't see lions attacking each other on sight....

Anyway, how were meeches moddeled on wolves, when we don't even see them in gameplay?

Most cats are highly territorial and will become aggressive when they encounter. They’re not quite as vicious as Scrabs: they don’t fight to the death, as the loser will normally be given plenty of opportunity to retreat. But lions differ from other cat species in that they can live in prides as well. Just like Scrabs!

Matt Lee told us so.

Who the mishelshunffle is Matt Lee?

If the animals in the games are hyenas, lions and wolves, does this mean that the area of Mudos we've seen roughly equates to Africa? If so, it would raise quite a lot of questions, such as are Abe's Marching Mudokons like our African tribesmen in the 18th-19th Centuries, having their lands taken and being forced into slavery while others of their 'species' live so-called civilised lives in other parts of Oddworld? Or do I just think too much?
Actually, don't answer that.

Matt Lee is currently the person answering emails sent to Oddworld. For a brief period he answered a lot of our questions, and told us a lot of information about Meeches. I think it was thanks to Zerox.

Abe’s story is inspired by the idea of an African diamond miner finding out where the diamonds all end up: as jewellery for some other society’s fashionable and wealthy. Slaves taken from Africa are obviously one of the more familiar examples, but the persecution of Oddworld’s native cultures draws from any number of native cultures on Earth.

Also, there are no wild wolves in Africa. :p

Mine is Paramite, because paramites are like spiders, and I love spiders.

scrabs:the best.end of.

Paramites!!! Awww.... They're so cute, I just want to pick one up and huggles it till it squeaks! Which, of course, it wouldn't. It would eat me instead. Paramites are the best! Sligs are really awesome too, I love the way they talk. I really like glukkons, their body design is so unique and finally, sloggies! I would carry them around in a very secure handbag, and release them when my enimies are near! har har har :p

I'd have to say Scrabs, although only in the first two games. Scrabs always scared me the most (except for maybe Slogs), and the music when encountering them was always so suspenseful. I'm sure there are legitimate reasons for them moving in groups like in Munch's Oddysee, but I just don't think it's as cool as two Scrabs taunting each-other and then fighting to the death.

I'd never really looked much into Paramites, but I still think they're exceedingly cool. They're also bastards. It scares the living sh*t out of me when I'm following one and all of a sudded two more come crawling down. Their ability to set traps is what makes them so cool.

For me, a big part of the 'awesomeness' of these creatures comes from the music. I'm sure that being chased by a Scrab in Scrabania or having Paramites launch their attack on me from above would be alot less 'awesome' if there was no music.

But there are wild dogs, or "painted wolves" Lycaon pictus.


My favourite beast is the scrab. Has been ever since I first saw one. Although I do love paramites.

Glukkons, Paramites and, of course Interns. To bad their lips are stitched it'll be great to hear what they have to say

I think I love you.

Lets not go there

There is nothining for them to say they have a sucker mouth!:D

GABBITS ARE THE KING OF CUTE!!1!1!

Doesn't matter they might make weird shrieks like paramites! It Would be cool to know how they insult each other!

My favourite creature is the Shrink, a misterious and imponent robot, nobody can survive when it is angry.

My favourites are Paramites Sligs and meeches. You have allready said why paramites are cool, and sligs are simply cool. Meeches look cool and it would be very interesting to know more about them. Hopefully they won't stay "extinct" for too long.

I love Mudokons of course, but I also like sligs; they're cute.

My favourits are scrabs and sligs.... An off-topic question: all sligs in AE and AO have shotguns but they act as SMG's, why didn't OWI make them look as some kind of SMG or assault rifle? Sligs' guns renind me a winchester 13. As I know there is a concept showing a slig holding an SMG with a tompson or PPS-styled round magasine (I think it was on TOGG). IMHO such a gun would be more appropriate.

I also like Paramites, and I think Scrabs are really cute aswell (even though all they ever do is walk, and kill). :D

Why can't they?

thats a tough question. i like them all but i think mudokons are the best. theyre just so interesting. my second favourite is scrabs becuase they are so cool!

I really like Mudokons, and sligs :) I like Scrabs too:):fuzmad:
And i think Glukkons are funny, but i hate them:D

Sligs Paramites Slogs Elum
 

I adore sligs,paramites and slogs. Sligs:so stupid and cute at the same time. Paramites:I love their stragety but other than that i can't really describe why i like them. Slogs: strangley cute and they interact with sligs. Gabbits are somehow not really my taste. Scrabs i don't mind but not as much as the others. Fuzzles are so cute in MO and i don't know anyone who doesn' like them. Everything from SW isn't really in my favorites other than a boombat. Fleeches are funny but not as good as paramites. Mudokons i like quite a bit but paramites are cooler. Elum i forgot for a moment but he is great. Glukkons are very well done but they don't really have any way to fight back. It would be cool to see a paramite vs. glukkon.:DAnd i will even let you in on a little secret: i was very very very very sad in scrabania when i had to say goodbye to Elum(assuming Elum is his name).:)

So. I think the Shrink is the most mysterious character (we don't know much about it) and I think when it attacks somebody it can't survive (in the Guardian Angel movie it has got orrible arms and cutter).

Oddworld. Duh.

Note: Do i need to change my NEWEST avatar? D:

Anyways, i got a few new favorites.

Meeches: Powerful, two mouths, arms(?), spikes, fiercer than scrabs.
Slogs: I'd feed it thousands of meat before it begins to be full. Hahaha. xD
Slig: SHOTGUN SMG FTW (just as Admiral Zaarin said.)

and a few hates.

Abe: It cannot able to chant slogs. >=O
Interns: I do not understand a word they just said.
Vykkers: almost clothless. fat looking. geeky. o_O

;)
