Ok look i've been thinking, I love Half life 2 and a love Oddworld. But comparing the two is just stupid.

i just bought HL2 today, actually just an hour ago, i guess they do look a little simillar.....

MeechMunchie 05-03-2009 03:29 AM

Did you get The Orange Box? 'Cause TF2 is frickin' awesome.

Wil 05-03-2009 06:01 AM

Fleeches actually have tiny little legs. Just like pigeons.

I'm not sure if im the first to post this in this thread, fore i'm too lazy to read it all, but in WoW in outland, there's a creature that's almost EXACTLY alike to the scrabs.

Xavier 05-04-2009 11:11 PM

yep, I think I can see a similarity here...

MeechMunchie 05-04-2009 11:11 PM

It's got the head of a Tyranid Carnifex. Not relevant, just an observation.

The Burning Crusade and the C'thun expansion made a lot of allusions to the Warhammer 40K universe and Starship Troopers.

Don’t be silly, it’s completely the wrong colour.

AlexFili 05-05-2009 05:37 AM

That green creature is somewhat similar to a Scrab. Are there any pokemon that look like Oddworld creatures?

Wings of Fire 05-05-2009 06:00 AM

Not out of the four hundred or so I'm familiar with.

Crashpunk 05-05-2009 08:22 AM

Well theres some but they don't look like them that much

Meep?

Wil 05-05-2009 08:38 AM

Has anyone ever noticed that Meep look curiously like clouds? COINCIDENCE?

Wings of Fire 05-05-2009 11:22 AM

No.

Just no.

A paramite is not an arachnid and shares almost none of the physiology.

A Caterpie is based off a caterpiller, which has more in common than a Caterpie would ever have.

And that, my friend, is a sheep.

Vexus 05-10-2009 03:39 PM

Well I'll be damned...those HL critters do look similar to Scrabs and Paramites, and that green thing looks almost exactly like a Scrab.

Also I nicknamed my Spinarak Paramite

MeechMunchie 05-10-2009 11:32 PM

That big red thing out of the new Star Trek movie looks a little like a paramite. http://www.wired.com/images/article/...l_screen_f.jpg You can't see the back half, but I think it has two more pointy legs.
