Oddysee on 360?
 
Although it may not ever happen, but have you ever wondered what an Abe's Oddysee/Exoddus re-make would be like on the 360? I've been thinking about it recently...what do you all make of it? If such a thing were to happen...

moxco 01-04-2007 11:25 AM

Yea that would be great i't would be also be good if they made for P.C. to.
But im happy if it did come out on Xbox 360 cus im getting one next week. :spin::spin::spin::spin:

What are the chances of that happening though?

Reptile 01-04-2007 12:07 PM

Slim, maybe. Since the game still looks good for a PS1. Then again, the might seeing as OWI have the green gem that is the Xbox.

Who knows...

Jordan 01-04-2007 01:37 PM

A remake would be very nice, but it's never gonna happen, Oddworld Inhabitants are making the film, so they won't have much time to do a remake... Though I could be wrong!

Arxryl 01-04-2007 01:44 PM

A remake for the X-box 360 would be awesome, but is highly improbable.

However, they'd have enough buttons on the 360, and they could make the backgrounds look even more spectacular. And maybe a few 3-D levels in the mix.
Aw darn... now you've got me thinking about it... ;)

Killy 01-04-2007 04:52 PM

I don't think they should go down that path, converting AO and AE to 3D would mean that the games would lose some of their charm...

Arxryl 01-04-2007 05:15 PM

Well, not all of it. Just a few "bonus" levels. You know, as a kind of extra addition to a renovated game. However, the 2-D style did give it it's individuality and originality, and to take too much of that away would make it less appealing to many oddworld fans.

moxco 01-04-2007 07:09 PM

On oddworld.com I was read Alf's rehab and tea and some one ask about putting abes oddysee on a new consoland Alf's replie was that the ps1 was so old they would have to redo the game from scratch just to get it on another consol.
I havent got A.O. or A.E. But i do want it and thats why it would be great.


I never knew A.O. or A.E. were 2d.

Daxter King 01-04-2007 07:11 PM

I say if they make it, put four games in one. The original side scrollers with improved graphics and 3D vesions of them. There everybody happy. :D

Get the PC version: it's the universal console.

magic9mushroom 01-04-2007 10:26 PM

:eek: you haven't got AO or AE?

On-topic: I think thaat, if they are going to do a remake, they should make it 3d as the 2d version is still out there and playable.

@MCE: They are 2D play, but with 3D backgrounds.

Luskan 01-05-2007 12:49 AM

i don't think oddworld should make any remakes...no matter how good it might seem imagined. I see oddworld as classic gems and i don't really think they should take a change a ruin what they have.

Xavier 01-05-2007 01:05 AM

don't touch AE or AO, they are almost perfect the way they are

however a remake of MO or ME would be awesome.

looney-bin 01-05-2007 03:50 AM

Screw just 360. I want an Oddworld Wii game. Think of the possibilities. :D

Reptile 01-05-2007 04:42 AM

A Wii game...maybe if they released MO for it. Possessing a Slig then whacking the nunchuk pad like he would his bat or shoot with the gun.

Darn you for making me think about that...

Jordan 01-05-2007 06:14 AM

I really doubt they'd re-release MO for the Wii, but it would use the controller perfectly, but the gamespeak might be pretty impossible unless Nintendo made another extension controller.

What do you mean theres no such game munch's exodus

Xavier 01-05-2007 12:05 PM

sorry here is it again:

make a remake of MO or make ME (witch is basically the same)

Reptile 01-06-2007 05:42 AM

There might be a ME.

All nintendo would have to do is add a microphone to a controller and then you could speak directly to them. Given there would be a little bit of confusion, and clear speaking, but...
Me: Dude! follow me!
Mudokon: That's the hundreth time you asked me to do that. I'm already following you, you just aren't moving.
Me: Oh.... okay. Follow me!

I'd get so many people dead that way... (me: Hey! go walk into that electrocuter!)

However, the whole thing about having the wii-chucks being a weapon as a slig would be pretty cool.

Jordan 01-06-2007 08:18 AM

You know, I never actually thought of that... That's a great idea, a microphone would rock! But you'd have to be very clear, and if you have a cold you can't play! :p

Wil 01-06-2007 10:14 AM

Given Abe’s voice, I think it’s more likely you can’t play if you don’t have a cold. :p

Xavier 01-06-2007 10:52 AM

I'm not sure I want to speak it all in myself
I tryed a game who supports that kind of technology and I annoyed everybody in the living room :p

Jordan 01-06-2007 11:01 AM

Its like with the DS, on Nintendogs you start talking to your dog, and the people in the room look at you gone out, good old Nintendo! :lol:

aaj111 01-06-2007 04:36 PM

If they did, I'd still want it to be the pixelly flat version...

EngPSP 01-13-2007 06:19 AM

I hope they are going to make an oddworld game for the 360, that would make my day, i doubt it would be for a while though. Oh well, i'm perfectly fine playing Abe's Oddysee on PSP for now. :)

Xavier 01-13-2007 10:10 AM

we all hope there will be an oddworld game on the 360
but that's not before 4 years (my guess)

Arxryl 01-13-2007 10:36 AM

There is still hope! Don't give up!

Or maybe re-vamp MO to look really good on the 360. They could also add the part about the Mudokon queen with the revamped version. And maybe a few more levels.

Or just friggen add it to the Backwards compatibility list already! Geez. Those lazy B-tards.

why re-do MO when you can do ME :p
but I doubt they will go back to munch soon

Yeah, really. If you've already passed the game, what would be the point of having it re-released, having to buy it again, and having to beat it again? It'd be a much better idea to release ME on the 360, if anything :).

Arxryl 01-14-2007 10:05 AM

Yes, but I was just toying with the idea. That and I forgot about ME. Whoops.

But yes, ME would be utterly awesome for the 360...

Xavier 01-14-2007 10:18 AM

my bet is that we will meet squeek before seeing ME

Jordan 01-14-2007 10:21 AM

An Oddworld game about a tiny hero, cute! :) I see squeek as a Slurg or a Ratz, it's the name, squeek...
OWI still need to finish the quintology anyway, so you're right Xav, squeek should come before ME, as it's gonna be a new quintology title.

Arxryl 01-14-2007 12:52 PM

Or maybe Squeek won't be tiny at all. Maybe that's just an ironic statement to throw us off when it comes out.

But yes. I wonder what the gameplay woul be like. Man, this would be a lot easier if we knew what he actually was. I wonder what his plaight would be? So much to think about...

But I would like to see ME, just because for MO you could play most of it just as Abe, or with Abe doing the major stuff. But in ME, maybe they could add more features for Munch. Like, maybe more utilization of his swimming abilities, or the sonar on his head.

Jordan 01-14-2007 01:54 PM

In ME the graphics'll be effing awesome! It would be cool if Munch could do different tricks in water, and he should have the ability to carry Abe in the water somehow... And the gamespeak should be wider. If the gabiwogs hatch, he'd have to command them somehow, like 'Hello', 'Follow me'. A bit like Abe...

I did not know AO was on PSP?

aaj111 01-14-2007 08:08 PM

I'm sure he had to of ripped AO onto the PSP somehow.

Nate 01-15-2007 01:52 AM

I think he meant the PS1. EDIT: Thanks to atusiya, I stand corrected.

It's been said before but I would prefer an MO director's cut (simultaneous to the movie) rather than closing the loose ends in ME.

Arxryl 01-17-2007 02:33 PM

A director's cut version of MO would be pretty cool. And somehting you could earn if you beat the game on Angelic Quarma (which I did the other day and I'm so happy with myself!) maybe you could earn a few clips of "The Making Of---". That would be pretty interesting. I know it would be somewhat like the "Art of Oddworld" book, but I'm sure they could add a little more to the videos, like an interview with Lorne Lanning about parts of it, or even with Sherry.
