AU$36, roughly.

So because they have been on Steam longer they should be free?

No, together AE and AO come to -1p. That's why it isn't £20.

No I'm saying that because AO & AE have been on steam for ages and members have already bought it. it should be less money altogether in the Oddbox.

EDIT: Do you reckon they'll release MO and SW separately?

Why would you buy the Odd Box if you already own 50% of it? It'll probably be cheaper to just get MO and SW. But we'll just have to wait and see.

I already own AE. I downlo - um, was given AO by someone. Dunno who. I tried it, liked it and plan to buy it along with the rest of the Odd Box.

I think we should permaban anyone who shows any indication of having obtained their Oddworld games illegally.

I agree.

I'll be buying all 4 games together. I don't have AO and AE in digital form yet, and it'll be the perfect chance for me to when the Oddbox is released.

Oh, you've only played the gamebook versions?

Uh... you mean you can get them as video games?

This.

:tard:

You know what I mean. I have them as discs, I need Steam versions now.

If they got MO or SW recently there really is no reason. Since I really doubt any method of purchasing them now a days would give money to OWI, of course buy AO and AE on Steam.

Are you suggesting it's possible to pirate MO and SW?

Of course. Just burn 'em to a disc and shove 'em in yer Xbox.

I was at the Gold Coast just last week and went into a second hand store. Apparently someone had conned the old guy who owned the place (he obviously knew nothing of games) into buying a bunch of pirated xbox games. I knew they where pirated because instead of saying "xbox" in the header it said "xgame". Anyway one of these games was Stranger's Wrath.

And see how quickly that fails to work.

The Xbox doesn't just look at the files on the disc; the discs are actually burnt in a specific pattern, leaving occassional gaps that are ignored by the DVD drive. To the best of my knowledge, no-one has managed to get a DVD burner to replicate this.

Now, if the Xbox is modchipped, on the other hand...

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!
It Well Come This Winter In 2010 right?
If so let's hope that omo's graphics could be a wee bit better...l'm just sayin! :D

It most likely won't have improved graphics, but it may look better on the PC than on the Xbox, though, it depends.

Does AO/AE look better on the PC? like a higher quality of image compression maybe?

I've only got the PSX versions, the discs all work fine and the last few playthroughs have been on PC anyway using epsxe, but im wondering if I should get the PC verisons when the Oddbox comes out

Yes, but only because there are no TV scanlines on PC version (you can turn them on for speed, though.... epsxe can turn them off/on anyway...) and so the game looks a little bit smoother... that's it
I think there is no need for buying PC AO/AE unless Paul rewrites game engine or whatever interesting else happens :) In ePSXe you can also add some shaders (Pete's OGL2 plugin) and use some graphic filters for enhancing the graphics

Why do you hope it comes out in Winter 2010, theres no reason why it could be released waay earlier?

...I know people from i think Scotland say 'Wee', but do they generally typed on a forum :confused:

That's the worst scenario.... and it's good! If we hang to it we won't be disappointed if something went wrong



If he means "January or February in 2010" as "Winter 2010"

I doubt anything will go wrong. AO and AE are already on Steam and its not like there going to completely remake the Xbox ones.

Lorne said it's coming out "this winter". As that's America, we can expect it NOW. I'm hoping for Christmas myself.

(It's Summer at the moment for me)

I'd really wish they would stop telling us what season something is released. It is confusing and discriminative to those who live in the southern hemisphere.

So discriminative.

I find Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4 just as annoying as seasons

Winter doesn't actually start until very late December and ends sometime around March-April.

That's dumb.
