Even that's not true. I traded Meech it for a T-shirt.

so they didn't give you a solid gold statuette of munch in a wheelchair either?

I definitely recommend New n Tasty. However I definitely prefer the original. To me, New n Tasty is perfect for the younger generation who have been brought up HD games. That generation does not understand how mind blowing the graphics Oddworld created were back in '97, and to have New n Tasty released, does bring life back to the story of Abe's Oddysee, and it makes me happy because it will gain more recognition than back in the day, as more people own consoles now. I have happily settled with New n tasty knowing that Oddworld is more popular now than it was back then.

Varrok, how could you say that "it isn't a masterpiece" ? I might think it's a masterpiece.

Furthermore, "NnT fails to replace the original", Shade might not agree with you.

I hope you realize literally nobody likes you

Don't worry, FA, I may post a photo of me as a baby.

Masterpieces are not flawless. We pointed out many, many issues with NnT, it's disqualified as a masterpiece.

But some people just enjoy NnT in the state it is now.

Exactly, Varrok. You agree with the idea that it's possible to be objective when you are reviewing a game.

STOP TALKING ABOUT BABIES

why do you keep bringing that up? i don't even know what the fuck you're talking about

When where the last time you and OANST talked about Oddworld ? Back on topic, please.

For example, when you're saying the controls are clunky, it's objective.

OANST, you're the one posting photos of your child on a public forum... So don't try to lecture me.

I only posted it so you could see the results of sex, as no one will ever allow your basement dwelling, shit stained ass to touch their body. Ask your mom for some more orange juice, and take your allowance to the store so you can buy more manga about school girls, and tilt the page in the hopes that you can see up their skirts.

See? I was trying to help.

oh my christ :laugh:

OANST, it's easy to play the "tough guy" on the internet. Seriously, poor kid.

It's an easy life, but somebody has to do it.

OANST, it's easy to play the "tough guy" on the internet. Seriously, poor kid.

you need a definition check. he isn't playing the tough guy, he's bludgeoning you textually with comic wit. it's what we do to people who talk about other peoples children all the time. seriously, shut the fuck up about that.

You guys ruined this thread.

I've watched you being completely incapable of taking a hint for a while now. You suck. No one cares about what you have to say, and no one wants to see you saying it. The reason is that you are annoying.

No, sir. We saved this thread.

Well, according to this thread, your review is subjective.

Best thing you've ever said on this forum.

()

.For example, when you're saying the controls are clunky, it's objective.

That's the exact opposite of what is the case???

What's with you Vlam?

Does someone suck your dick for every time you say the words "subjective" and "objective" or something. Christ.

()

But Scrabaniac said and Crashpunk one time did oh my god get their dicks out of your mouth and fuck off to whatever foreign trash euro shit continent you crawled out of

What a way to talk for a moderator...

That's frigging made my day.

Holy shit.

What a way to talk for a moderator...

It is definitely a way to talk. This is true.

What's with you Vlam?

You mean, unlike you?;)

Don't try to be tough.

Said vlam, trying to be tough

I've felt vlam's muscles before, thoroughly. He really is tough, like, for real.

()

You mean, unlike you?;)

Don't try to be tough.

No. Because I don't use words "subjective" and "objective" because I'm not trying to sound smart.

Also your attempt to try and threaten me is laughable. So I'll repeat my statement. What's wrong with you?

Pros:
QuickSave
'All o' Ya!'
Smooth Sidescrolling
Great Soundtrack
HD Visuals: Stunning Scenery & In-Game Characters
New Alternative ways to solve puzzles
New Cutscenes

Cons:
- Irritating Mudokons talking (or going 'eh! eh! eh! Come on...' every 5 damn seconds, whoever voiced that one should be shot)
- Atmosphere killed. Too Bright and shiny.
- Original SFX... Scrabs now squeak.. I miss the old sounds. Paramites are Acceptable.
- Ragdoll Physics (Whilst sometimes funny, kills atmosphere. I miss the fizzing)
- Abe's Voice. (Not in a negative way, it still sounds Abe-y, but not as charming and mystical as the soft original)
- The cheesy Loading rhymes e.g. 'out of nowhere an Elum Appeared, Abe's journey to the temple was becoming weird'.. I don't know, i don't think i like them.
- The Chanting: again, not as mystical as the original, and continues to make sound after possession.
- Mudokon Chanting!! - The one in Scrabania that goes 'Yowww Yah Yowww' pisses me off big time
- Abe making noises: 'Yughhh!' every jump..
- The meat saws! - 1/50 chance of passing through without dying
- Controls are clunky: Abe shuffles before jumping unless assigned Jump with X, Rolling is slow, sometimes doesn't respond.
- Rupturefarms opening scene.. Looks too futuristic and snazzy. I prefer the old polluting grey one.

There are way more Cons than Pros about New 'n' Tasty, but that's because you will never beat an original. We are all accustomed to how Abe used to sound, move and look, and seeing it reimagined is weird. But I can play NNT countless times and still have fun. I will just never get the same feelings as i did with the original. All the heart palpitations when being chased by Scrabs or waking up a Slig.. It doesn't exist anymore.

But i'd say it's worth a buy. I have PS4 version, PC and will be getting Wii U version too. because i will always support Oddworld :)

The one in Scrabania that goes 'Yowww Yah Yowww' < this was the best part of the whole game! Too funny :D
