Holy crap a trailer!

Phylum 04-01-2010 02:11 AM

My thoughts:

1. April fools joke.

2 Oddworld logo? 70% chance of April fools joke...

3. Maybe not...

4. Damnit!

Nate 04-01-2010 02:42 AM

My thoughts...

1. Why would a re-release of several old games need a trailer?
2. How do you sum up four different games in one trailer?
3. Why would they use that music, out of all the Oddworld music?
4. Oh... I see what you did there.

Jordan 04-01-2010 11:01 AM

Obv a fake. Last year's April fool's joke was way bettar.

Daxter King 04-01-2010 03:16 PM

I was surprised by the link.

Surprised that Rick Roll wasn't the first thing to appear.

Hi all
I'm new in this forum. I'm glad to be here. I cant wait for the oddbox( I hope that you dont change your mind and release this fantastic games for the pc). Because this is the best news of this year for me. So I'm waiting and buy the oddbox in the first day of release! :)

Welcome to the forums. On topic: Dang, RickRoll'd again. Can't wait for Oddbox to come out.

blue wings 04-07-2010 10:02 AM

I was just wondering does anybody know whether the game will be released in a box version or not? I mean is it possible to buy the game out of the Steam?

The_Dead 04-07-2010 10:14 AM

I wish they would release it on PSN or XBL. :/

Nope. The only way to get the Oddbox will be through Steam.

Nate 04-07-2010 07:44 PM

The only way to get the Oddbox will be online. They may choose to make it available on other online stores, such as GOG.

I think it's great that they're releasing all games on PC. For people who really wish they could play AO/AE on xbox or whatever, just get them on PC instead and buy a USB controller if you really want to. Any modern PC however modest should be able to run AE/AO/MO and even stranger smoothly.

Crashpunk 04-09-2010 02:58 AM

It will be really cool if SW had a new Online feature sort of like Team Fortress 2 or Call of Duty. 'Stranger's Wrath: Deathmatch' or somthing on them lines

And i can alway imagen 'Oddworld: Source'
Somehow convert Abe's Oddysee into First Person that runs on the Source Engine.

Xavier 04-10-2010 12:57 PM

Do you have any idea how much work that would take?
And if you do, do you really think it i worth it?

Yup

Xavier 04-11-2010 08:13 AM

Deathmatch and Abe FPS, really?

Rayrockslots 04-11-2010 01:07 PM

Fuck yeah! Obviously people who liked Oddworld's puzzle solving game play and storytelling would hate this game with a passion but for me, if it's got Oddworld in it and it's *FUN* then suck it to me baby!

Realistically though we know it wont happen.

Meet the Mudokon?

Luskan 04-12-2010 02:32 AM

Nah, nothing about that takes my fancy at all. Abes oddysee FPS would be shite, 2D all the way. 'Deathmatch'...whats the piont? Strangers wraths' gameplay wouldn't really work in that type of mode.

Wil 04-16-2010 08:18 AM

Finally reported on OddBlog.

Fischkopf 04-20-2010 05:51 AM

Did they change anything in Exoddus or Oddyssee?
I hope it will be in HD. :)

They will add achievements to it... nothing else

STM 04-20-2010 07:18 AM

shame that that's all and I have all 4 games so is it worth me rebuying then?

Wil 04-20-2010 09:04 AM

Depends whether you want to have them on Steam/PC.

leocrow 04-20-2010 12:44 PM

Although i do have the abe games, and i do like to have physical disks and manuals, i am getting them no matter their price.Is it Oddbox day yet?

Hulaabeo 04-20-2010 12:58 PM

I think Oddworld Source would be a good Idea, but as Xavier stated before, too much work. :(

Rayrockslots 04-20-2010 07:53 PM

Oddworld source? That doesn't sound like it would go with chips.

Hulaabeo 04-21-2010 02:15 AM

O rly?

MeechMunchie 04-21-2010 08:14 AM

Ya rly.

Crashpunk 04-23-2010 12:11 PM

I was just shared my ideas that's all. I agree an Oddworld FPS would be different but i think it would work. Plus i LOVE the Source Engine. Oddworld would make it awesomer (That's a word right?)

Oh yeah, I forgot that Stranger's Wrath doesn't count.
