When the AO HD will be done?
 
Hi mah first thread so this is just about guessing when does the game come and would you buy it soon as possible? My guess some around 2011 end?
And would you buy it even the game ''might'' be expensive like 50+? just curious but if you ask from me hell yeah id buy it. So if you think this thread is kinda off-topic or something that dosent belong here then im sorry :(

Havoc 02-25-2011 12:25 PM

News stories tell us that it will be released somewhere this year. As for if I'll buy it if it costs over 50 bux, I don't think so. I suspect the HD remake can be classified as an indy game, so asking the price of a full game for it might be a little overdoing it.

DarkHoodness 02-25-2011 12:26 PM

"When it's done!" - Although as seen in other threads, Just Add Water have been quoted saying that they'll release 4 Oddworld titles this year, so your guess might be correct.

EDIT: Got beaten to it. :P

alluz 02-25-2011 12:32 PM

Well as my mistake i don't buy it if it looks like a child game like well if you think crash bandicoot the old one was good but new ones looked like you can melt your brains out and enjoy the game somehow so if it looks awesome and still original then yup

Phylum 02-25-2011 02:16 PM

I think it will be released some time after the date they they planned to announce it.

THE ALMIGHTY RAISEN 02-25-2011 03:20 PM

As long as it comes out before the world ends in 2012 then ill be happy

Wil 02-25-2011 08:10 PM

They haven't even officially announced it yet.

Say, when do you think it will get its first patch?

MarsMudoken 02-25-2011 09:02 PM

I say we should hope that they just get it right the first time.

DarkHoodness 02-25-2011 09:09 PM

I think they learned their lesson from Stranger.

Xavier 02-25-2011 11:58 PM

Four words guys:

Too soon to tell.

SligValet 02-26-2011 02:47 AM

Way too soon to tell indeed - They recently just announced it.


Also holy fuck FOUR OW titles? Where was this announced?

Xavier 02-26-2011 04:11 AM

On Jaw's official site:

I love like to see how Abe is coming almost really alive. :-)
And how sharp Abe's Oddysee HD is. ;)

@stewartgilray Stewart Gilray
I love how Joystiq and others are getting stuff VERY wrong in regard to 4 games... This actually pleases me, sorry guys :D #Oddworld

Does this mean project != games?

Dynamithix 02-27-2011 10:00 AM

Now that we're talking about twitter updates...

:

@stewartgilray do you guys have a planned date for Abe's Oddysee HD? i can't wait to return to my childhood :D

:

@BazKB 2012 sometime

I was hoping they'd release it this year. But maybe the 4 other titles they are planning for this year makes up for it, haha.

Xavier 02-27-2011 11:29 AM

oho... so AOHD isn't one of the four projects?
*mind blows*

Pac-Maniac 02-27-2011 11:30 AM

It will be finished on February 29th, 2011

Troll much?

Xavier 02-27-2011 11:34 AM

Way too much.

Pac-Maniac, you had your fun, let's do this by the book:
Quit the trolling, this is your first and only warning, all other trolling activities will earn you an infraction.

have a nice day.

Actually, I'm not sure. I was tired when I wrote that earlier post anyways, haha.

Gilray's tweets confuse me, I'm not sure if AO HD is one of the 4 projects or not.

:

@Rammengel yup only 1 has been announced so far, one is NOT Abe HD

:

@stewartgilray so lets see, 4 new projects this year. 1 was oddbox right? 2ed is Abe oddyssey remake 3ed is iphone app and 4th?

:

@ambu14 nope on all. Abe HD is next year. Stranger HD is this year, the rest are tba


Wil 02-27-2011 12:17 PM

Well he just said twice that it's not, so...

Manco 02-27-2011 12:17 PM

Let me see if I have this straight:
  • Four titles will be released in 2011.
  • One is Stranger's Wrath HD, confirmed by Stewart.
  • Abe HD has been confirmed NOT to be one of the four, as it's due for release next year.
  • Abe Speak hasn't really been confirmed as one of the four.

So we have at least two unannounced titles to look forward to, possibly three.

alluz 02-27-2011 12:18 PM

So not in this year? Im gonna cry ;( well least it aint canceld

THE ALMIGHTY RAISEN 02-27-2011 01:37 PM

What could the other 3 titles possibly be? Hand of odd? Please let one of them be hand of odd

Don't fool me! The release date is unknown for Abe's HD.

Crashpunk 02-28-2011 10:49 AM

3 new titles.

-Abe's Exoddus HD
-Munch's Oddysee HD
-Stranger's Wrath PS3 remake (aka HD!)

:tard:

Mr. Bungle 02-28-2011 10:56 AM

Would they really bother remaking/mastering Munch in HD, given how much of a commercial failure it was?


Also, I find it funny that people are still hoping for Hand of Odd. Persistant motherfuckers.

Well it hasn't been officialy cancelled and it was a great idea for a game so there is still a chance it could eventualy be made.

Mr. Bungle 02-28-2011 03:05 PM

I'm not saying it wouldn't be a great game; in fact, I would really like it myself. It's just the chance of it being released at this point is low - it's probably on the bottom of their laundry-list of priorities, really.

Wil 02-28-2011 03:55 PM

People should contemplate whether JAW could actually remaster all four games by the end of the year.

[*]Abe Speak hasn't really been confirmed as one of the four.[/LIST]

What does this one mean?

Abe won't speak in the game, this doesn't make sense?

MeechMunchie 03-01-2011 12:35 AM

It means the GameSpeak touchpad app probably isn't one of the four JAW/OWI projects for this year.

Okay thanks.

I haven't heard about the touchpad.

I haven't heard about the touchpad.

Is ipad better than iphone when using abe speak app? because of big surface with multitouch.

Wil 03-01-2011 03:16 PM

It's hard to say since Abe Speak hasn't been released yet.

Paul 03-01-2011 03:19 PM

I hope I get my borked iPod back for the Abe Speak app, I'll be annoying the hell out of people with it :D

Xavier 03-02-2011 04:50 AM

Nah, I think it's going to be smaller projects, perhaps not even games.

What?

Phylum 03-02-2011 04:57 PM

They said 4 Oddworld projects.

Nothing about games.

Mr. Bungle 03-05-2011 01:30 PM

Could be a goddamned book, for all we know.
