wow
Glad to be back, I see there are lots of goodness to see and to read,
and that downloadable pdf is just perfect!

the new dear Alf is realy nice to read!

Welcome come back your home base. ;)

I'm sure this has already been pointed out and/or realized, but we have a new species name: Slegs. I'm guessing that Slegs are those "warthog" things...the grey slogs w/ horns.

Yep, I spotted that, Mac (fupping hell, did it a-fupping-gen), though I didn't point it out here. Mind you, not did I point out that I'd uploaded the images. :p However, there is another new species mentioned.

It also mentions Meagly McGraw's son, Tiny. I suspect Tiny McGraw is the whopping great beast in the first image for the Stranger logo from Oddworld.com. If you remember, the one I joked looked just like Tiny Tiger from Crash Bandicoot. Ha, how I felt remorse for the creativity. It's also the second Tiny on Oddworld, the other being a Fuzzle - and neither of them are tiny. Original or what?

Oh yeah, the other new species are Opples. What, plants are species. :p

well now we've got slegs, to add to sligs and slogs. Can we expect slugs and slags soon?

We have Slurgs. Slegssligsslogsslurgs, heh. I wonder why 'Slegs, though.

We don't actually know what the sleg is but we guess it's the slog type creature.
Why do you think they put the 'e' in? Most of the time their creature names are directly related to their Earth counterpart, so what could it mean?

Maybe this creature is just a different subtype of the slogs we've seen. Like a Dachsund to a Terrier, I could imagine that the sleg might only be related to the slog. Or it could be an alternate spelling of "pig" hence the pork 'n' beans reference.

Or perhaps a sleg is a direct cousin to the slig. Because it looks as if there is a lot of wierd simalarities between the inhabitants we seen to these new inhabitants as if they were like cousins. My point with the Clackerz and Mudokon simalarity. But even deeper there might be an even early hint made by Daily deception with that one Mudokon that looked like it had fur. This picture:

Heck it also looks like another type of Octigi is going to be in this proof from the polygon Magazine. In the background on one of the pages showed two pictures of other Octigi. 2.0 and that one huge one. If thats going to be in OW4 then perhaps a lot of the inhabitants we are going to encounter are direct hill billy cousins to the ones we already know of. Like a sleg is the sligs hill billy cousin. Or the Octigi 2.0 is a hillbilly cousin to the Glukkon.

Who knows but its just something Ive noticed about this new game. But its also not a confirmation that this is fact eather.

Paramiteabe... :fuzblink:

I'm nearly sure slegs are the "warthogs" we saw in the X-Factor...

i wasn't that impressed with the updates this month

But what about the cool pic of Glukkons with peanut heads? You weren't impressed with that?! I am appalled! How could you think such a thing?

Somebody need a punishment for their actions...oh yes they do.
Now go to your room and think about what you've done!

Pffft...not impressed with updates. :rolleyes:

-oddguy :p

*5 mins later, i come out of my room*

i am sorry for what i have said, but the cool pic of Glukkons with peanut heads was cool

Good boy! :p

-oddguy :fuzcool:

I think that it is a good way to keep people comming back keeping it so secret it is the right way to do it and they give us allot of information on the games. :fuzgrin:

Yeah, I think OWI did the right thing when they made this game so secretive. If you let all your info loose, expectations are set and if you don't deliver at par with those expectations...you become MO. Funny thing is...I liked MO. You see, I didn't have all the info you guys at the OWF did, because I hadn't joined OWF and was just an average-joe guy. I enjoyed MO.

Anywho, I can't wait 'till E3 when Abe Babe gets us some news. We're expected to know who's publishing, see the polished game engine, etc... Oh joy!

-oddguy

See this guy knows the crack. :fuzzle:

maybe even some great pictures and a release date...

*dreams*

Plants I think. Opples make Opple cider, a spin-off of apples no doubt :p
Slegs are those Wartslogs, I bet. I doubt that thay're a type of slig, I mean...who would have a pet slig?

And where is the peanut-headed glukkon pic? I can't find it.

http://www.oddworld.com/alf/pop_photo.jpg
it's the "fan photo"

Haha. That's cool, creative idea :D

i have to addmit that is comedy

How do we even know a sleg is a wartslog? Did it say underneath the picture of one?

I dunno for all we know it can be something totally different but I am going to stick believeing they are slegs.

A pet slig now there is something that sick and twisted. Uuuuum yeah goes off and thinks up a cool idea for an Oddworld plot for a paticular fanfic.

Ahahaha Pet Sligs get em, pet em, shoot em, no pants aloud!:lol:

Paramiteabe... :fuzblink:

So those glukkons are nuts?

*Falls to the ground into a foetal position laughing. Slowly realises everyone in the office is staring at him. Stands up, brushes himself off and continues at the computer with dignity only slightly bruised*

LOL! that was a good one...

I'm glad someone else thought so.
