Rude more?

I want the end of July now. :(

Josh 07-19-2010 10:26 PM

Wait, you want more rudeness? You Cock-juggling thunder cunt.

So, will they be using Oddmobb.com or Oddworld.com?

Nate 07-19-2010 10:39 PM

If it's something to do with Oddworld, then oddworld.com. If it's to do with the antisocial network or whatever Oddmobb are working on (seperate to JAW), then presumably oddmobb.com.

This is very exciting news. I've been a fan of these games since I first played Oddworld Abe's Odyssey. I cannot wait for the Odd Box, so I can relive the legend again of all the 4 games :)

Oh I am new to the forums, and just also wanted to say Hello!

Dipstikk 07-20-2010 08:19 AM

Hey, guys! Did you know OWI is going to be releasing information on some new Oddworld games?!

I am really curios to know how the new www.oddworld.com website looks.. when it launches

MoonMoe 07-20-2010 09:21 PM

I hope they make alot more Oddworld game they're my favorite! I love them all and I hope they make sequels to existing games as well as new games with original styles of game play.

Crashpunk 07-21-2010 01:39 AM

I just want them to carry on the quintoigy, I really want to see Munch's Exoddus and Squeek's Oddysee

The Crappin' Elum 07-21-2010 08:04 AM

It looks like Lorne is back in action! Finally...

GlukkonGluk 07-21-2010 12:45 PM

Munch's Exoddus wouldn't be a part of the Quintology, though I agree it would be nice to see.

Mikaeel 07-21-2010 01:50 PM

^^ I keep forgetting that.

I also heard that Abe Exoddus wasn't even planned after Oddysee, it was like a last minute thing or something.

I glad they did it though!

It would be part of the Quintology storyline, it just wouldn't contribute to the count of five games.

GABBITS OWN 07-21-2010 09:06 PM

:fuzwink:Is this going to be offical?

Nate 07-21-2010 09:28 PM

The new games? Yes. Just Add Water could not legally create Oddworld games without Lorne and Sherry's permission.

The Crappin' Elum 07-21-2010 10:22 PM

It would be interesting if they would start re-working on hand of odd! Or maybe in this new game they will make every oddworld character meet in 1 place and battle the forces of evil together

STM 07-22-2010 01:02 AM

Super Odd Bros Brawl! Wouldn't that be fun

GABBITS OWN 07-22-2010 01:13 AM

This is Great news

Rsandee 07-22-2010 02:31 AM

This is great, i've played the first 2 Oddworld games when i was a kid, i loved Abe's Exodus.
I'm also looking forward to play Munch's Oddysee and Stranger's wrath on my pc.

AvengingGibbons 07-22-2010 05:39 AM

How can Abe's Exodus be seen as a bonus game to Oddysee??? 'Cause, Abe's Exodus is so much better, and longer... I don't get it :S..

I guess cause both cames still center around Abe, and each Quintology has to have a new character.

Wil 07-22-2010 06:56 AM

It's because Abe's Exoddus isn't essential to understand the story. AO has Abe discover and accept his fate as saviour of his people. AE is just him doing that for a bit before the real story begins with the rescue of Sam, the trial of Molluck and the freedom of the last Gabbit alive in MO. Or one third of that, anyway.

GlukkonGluk 07-22-2010 07:06 AM

Would it be reasonable to assume that, if Munch's Exoddus did get released, then the trial of Mullock and rescue of Sam and other things that weren't included in MO would be used there instead?

SuperSligMan 07-22-2010 07:09 AM

do you think they will finish hand of odd....?

I believe they were intending to do that, yes. Which would indeed invalidate my above distinction between anchor and bonus titles.

No. Hand of Odd was an idea to capitalize on the A.L.I.V.E. II engine, just as Fangus was an idea to capitalize on the Stranger engine. Since the A.L.I.V.E. II engine fell far short of OWI's expectations, it was never suitable for Hand of Odd. Like Fangus, Lorne may chose to tell that story/explore that gameplay one day, but it would probably require it own game engine, and they have other things they want to be doing for the foreseeable future.

SuperSligMan 07-22-2010 08:11 AM

oh ok...hand of odd seemed like a good idea...shame

GlukkonGluk 07-22-2010 08:29 AM

No point complaining- after so long, I think we should consider ourselves lucky that we're getting any new games. If they're a success, then hopefully Lorne can turn back to some of the projects that never happened. Win- win, see? :D
