same it probably wont be of any of the games.

I really doubt he would make a movie of AO, AE and MO. I think he justs wants to press on with the Quintology. Thats what I would do anyway.

would be a very stupid move... he would cut himself from all the public that doesn't know the beginning of the story.

Oops, I forgot how many people don't know what Oddworld is. But do you think he would just use some cut-scenes from the games in the movie?

Xavier 07-02-2006 04:11 AM

my guess is that it will all be new material with maybe one very small CG scene from the game as easter egg :p

I just thought if they are filming AO and AE, wouldn't it just be easier to use footage from the game?

Xavier 07-02-2006 04:18 AM

actually it would look crappy now on the big screen,
CG has evolved and the AO and AE material is now old compared to the modern day standarts

Really? I thought AO and AE CGI looks a bit better than todays versions.

But if you blow it up to full screen size you'd notice a huge difference in quality and the fineness of detail.

I suppose, but I really loved the CGI effects in AO and AE. Everything looked so real.

Oddysee has much better CG effects than Exoddus.

I really hope that Lorne will (re)make quintology by making movies, and still continue with making games (wich should be for PC also).

Yes, I was a bit upset when Oddworld went XBox as I don't have an XBox.

Spirrow 07-02-2006 06:45 AM

A lot of people are upset about the switch to Xbox. But we
don't have the power to change that. So Lorne will either
go back with PS once the PS3 is released, or he'll stick with Xbox.
Maybe he can try both systems.

I kind of think the PS3 should have
enough power to support Oddworld. I mean they say
it's a strong system.

That is, if he is going to make more Oddworld games at all. Since he's developing movies, he might not have the time to make more games, though I hope he will.

I was thinking I wanted to get the Nintendo Wii (Prototype name=Revolutiob). Its got so many cool games and stuff, and the control system rules. I would think that Oddworld may be interested in using it...
PS3 copied the idea of the motion sensor, and there's isn't as good as it only recognises certain tilts etc. as a default, not any can really be invented or anything.
I didn't think Sony would sink that low. and X-box 360 came out WAY too early, not enough effort put in I don't think. It may seem good now, but I reckon the others will be superior...I mean, it can overheat, for God's sake. Couldn't tehy put a cooler in like they do with computers? yes, stupid Microsoft with their stupid legal forcing...(they made a contract sp that the next 2 games Oddworld made had to be unique to X-box only and no other console)
Also, I don't want them to make specific release dates. Release dates suck, because it encroaches on the time they have available and can ruin a game, or suppress its quality.

Lord Vulcher 07-02-2006 07:55 AM

Stupid XBox, stealing all the Oddworld games!

paramiteabe 07-02-2006 01:09 PM

This is refreshing! I was startng to wounder about Oddworld and we get this new stuff. I am looking forward to this and as an old member, ill be comming back here more often now that new and tasty stuff are comming.

I think the AO movie will carry the same plot as the game only viewed differently as a story where we see Abe interact with the other characters Muds etc. Only now other characters will have more important roles as oppose to what the game focuses on. I mean granted we might see films from the games but expanded upon meaning we will see the first film from the game but where that film ends in the game, it will continue as an ongoing story and film in the movie.

Get over it. Either buy an Xbox or stop your bitching; and that's not just specifically aimed at you.

Why would I buy an XBox? The controlers are way to big and there aren't any good games for it.

Well, people didn't really take a liking to Munch's Oddysee, and, well, Stranger's Wrath looked like an ok game, but to me it didn't feel like Oddworld, the characters were way to original e.g. walking and talking chickens.

Mudoko_Jedi 07-03-2006 12:18 AM

Yes SW wasnt all that odd but it was cool you saw a vyker in it and MO was odd just not that good.

The Vykker was the only thing in SW that was odd. Another bad thing about SW is that it didn't have MUdokons, Sligs or Glukkons. These characters were all an esencial part of Oddworld and they were just left out in SW which made the game not odd.

Dusan 07-03-2006 07:04 AM

...walking and talking chickens.
I agree. They are very bad Oddworld characters

In my eyes they are not ebven classified as Oddworld characters.

Stranger's Wrath is the best game I've ever played. Don't put it down if you haven't tried it, BITCH. JAY KAY!

But honestly, Xbox has incredible games. Ninja Gaiden, Splinter Cell, The Halos, Oddworld, Gun, etc.

......And nearly all of them stolen from PS2.

Slaveless 07-03-2006 07:50 AM

Oh come on, there was a reason why MO was only on the X-box. Basicly, the graphics of a MO were great back then (or at least I thought so), and I bet there wasn't a whole lot of systems that could have that kind of graphics. I bet MO would look horrible on the PS2.

For those who think Oddworld is only about Sligs, Mudokons, and Glukkons, well, that's just wrong. I bet the idea would be worn out by the time it's the fourth Oddworld movie, if you just used only around the same 10 characters. SW looked really good to me and I only wished I could play it on the X-box some day. I just have to wait until someone is giving away their X-box once they get a 360. In fact, I like MO too.

True, what I find great about big Xbox games is how a lot of them are available on all platforms. Beyond Good and Evil, Gun, KOTOR. I hope to get both some day :D.
