Beat this one!

In the general store in the first Clakkerz town, walk around it - you will find a fortune telling machine. Press X near it and you see a movie clip of later segments of the game, ie: the future.

I can't believe this hasn't been posted yet actually...

Yeah, I remember that.
It has parts with the battle at Last Legs and so on, doesn't it?.

T-nex 05-25-2005 02:21 AM

Uh yea... but that's not really an Easter egg.... =/ i think...

The Marching Mudokon 05-25-2005 02:23 AM

Yeah, I think it's just a secret bonus or something like that.

Abe16 05-25-2005 06:33 AM

Nah, it's not much of a secret Drew. Sorry.

Kinda recks the whole game, but it's an aright idea I suppose.

I thought it was a bit silly, quite frankly. Almost like it was trying to copy Prince of Persia but it didn't even help the gameplay.

The first fortune telling machine that i came accross was the one in New Yolk City, it had the clips of of Gloktigi and i got scared.

Apart from that and the Grubb idol and a few hidden chests, i havn't found anything.

It is considered an "Egg" anything that doesn't nessecarily have anything to do with the game but is either:Viewable and has a certain text Interactive:Like the fortune teller

An example of an "Egg" Would be the scrab gun in Halo 2 or the elvis newpaper in GTA or the giant Easter egg in Max Power.

... If you search various online dictionaries for "easter egg", the main thing that seems to crop up is that they are put in as a joke.

I don't know about you, but I don't find this particularly funny. I think it just counts as a hint.

I'll tell you a good Easter Egg example: (not Oddworld, unfortunately)

Tony Hawks UnderGround 2: Boston Level:

Smash through one of the Windows to see the famous Star Wars Kid and his cardboard tube.

Nate 06-06-2005 04:45 AM

... Fairly irrelevant in this Forum then.

There, I've said it (and rather politely if I say so myself) and no one else needs to put their two cents in.


Unless you really want to.

Wow this section is so empty that your last post was the most recent for ages...
I guess Oddwolrd Forums really are slowing up eh?
