Yeah but we've been saying that for the last 12 months and we've only gotten anything at all this month (which was really just info about the Inhabitants, rather than the game)

each month we are expecting big changes...
well E3 did gave us much yet, not even feedback of Lorne's presentation

E3's not over yet...there's still hope! If we don't get news from IGN, Abe Babe is sure to have something when she gets back.

Has Lorne given his presentation yet? I haven't read it reported anywhere.

I hope Lorne hasn't attended E3 yet. I have heard no news and if he did then it must've been some boring shite because I haven't even seen a transcript, and Lorne's not the kind of guy who bores you ;)

That'd really suck for Abe Babe if she went to E3 and OWI wasn't even attending. But E3 has other stuff to offer besides Oddworld. ;)

-oddguy

Abe Babe was also at E3 for the Final Fantasy series, and said that there was tonnes of stuff! When she wants, she'll probably do a report on it all.

Alcar...

That's right. She's probably having a great time.

-oddguy

By now I'd be expecting her to report back and brag of her extraordinarily lucky life as attending E3, but we haven't heard from her yet so there's hope yet ;) I just wish we could squeeze some OW info out of this event, I mean it's like E3 is a delicious pie sitting on a high table that we can't reach, and Kristen is the only one brave enough to scale the sides :p

pfffff... I'm not old enough, otherwise I would have gone...
oh yeah and that think called school too.

anyway, if we don't have any news from her yet I doubt there are much oddworld info

Why is everyone saying Stranger is slated for June? Every where I go they are saying the same thing. What does it mean? Or does it mean anything?

Whoa! We have heard from Abe Babe! We just didn't know it! :p Should've checked Oddworld-Web. Go here:

Oddworld was'nt at the booth then.There realy keeping it secret, on the other hand theres a wounderfol pic of Farzards art, not oddworld but it looks just like Stranger! very similar indeed :).

EDIT: i wonder why Farzard left. He seems to do the same theme with OW, western theme.

Farzad wanted to do some other things...
anyway, Bungie IS at the E3... strange, I wonder when Abe Babe will come back to have a longer report.

Well, I heard the Bungie booth was only for VIP...like the guys at IGN and stuff. Only special members of the press could get in. Guards were outside of the booth even!

-oddguy

Damn, I was looking forward to some info.

Lorne was part of a panel on Thursday on the topic of Toward an Artisan Model of Game Design

so basically he didn't talk about Stranger. Which pretty much rules out a release in the next few months

hmmm remember the gamasutra video? he showed some elements of MO to ilustrate his speach, could be the same thing.

We only know and this is official information that Stranger will be out some time this year. Wether its June or not remains to be seen. That is why I predicted June in the first place but most certainly that isn't official thus it needs to be taken as such. I got this information from all kinds of game stores not just one. And everyone is evidently telling me the same. I don't even know if its true or not but thats one of the reasons I predicted it in the first place. Why are all these game stores telling me that OW4 is slated for June release? Where are they getting their information from? And if so is it official?

Paramiteabe... :fuzblink:

I doubt it. This was not just a monologue speech where he could do what he wants. This was a moderated panel, where he just debates a topic with other industry folk.

Aha! I knew PA would be back to do his thang! :p

-oddguy

ah yeah, I forgot about that, you are probably right Nate

heh heh
