Yemmling 04-28-2001 06:49 PM

Dakkan Blackblade 04-28-2001 07:35 PM

What do the new movies have?

Osiris The Fleech 04-28-2001 09:30 PM

I wonder how tat herd of scrabs got to paramonia....

LuxoJr 04-29-2001 01:37 AM

Maybe this means that we'll finally see scrabs and paramites interact.

Elum 04-29-2001 01:46 AM

They will either ignore each other or tear each other to shreds...I would rather see them go off on each other

Grid 04-29-2001 02:45 AM

Yeah! Paramites vs. Scrabs!!! *sigh* I'm still loading the vids.

Elum 04-29-2001 02:52 AM

I didn't download them, I just streamed em'

If they had Elum in them, I would've downloaded em, and I would be watching them over and over!

Pacen 04-29-2001 06:02 AM

Wow thanks Dragadon! I'm downloading them now...

Cloverfield 04-29-2001 07:47 AM

Very impressive!!! :)

I thought the one with Munch running through the pack of Scrabs was the best... it looked awesome with a pack of Scrabs following Munch. I wonder if he is leading them to the place we see in the distance at the end of the movie... it looks like some kind of natural cage or something.

The others are awesome too, although the second, slightly dark to see what is happening. I like how Abe jumps from well to well.

Thanks Dragadon... credit given on Oddworld-Web to you! :)

Abe Babe...

WOO! I cannot wait for this game, ive been replayin the last 2 games and man, i forgot how funny and fun they are! General aslik cracks me up. i even had a dream about MO, the weirdos came and told me i had to find oddworld inhabitants and get the glorius xbox and MO.

These new three movies are so amazing, so beautiful, even in that poor resolution. I can't wait to play this game in a 1900-line resolution monitor!

Those movies are taken from the demo level that OWI showed at Gamestock, I guess, since there is a few reviews describing how Munch has to lead a pack of Scrabs through a gate, then lock them in there, so that Abe can run around safely. They also describe that part when Abe uses the new wells(?) to get to the place whrere he can finally bring Munch back from the scrabs trap.

After these new movies and screenshots from gamespot, many threads with new theories are popping up, that's great! Now we have enough subject to argue and discuss until E3 finally comes.

Melvin:squeeking paramite 04-30-2001 11:52 AM

PACK OF SCRABS?How can that be possible if when two scrabs get together they fight to the death?I'M CONFUSED!!!!!

freakyLA 04-30-2001 01:05 PM

I streamed them , too and they were so bad. i couldn´t make out much. it was so darkl the music souned dark ,too :(
Well what i get to see is cool. I´ll hope OWI won´t change the realise date.
TO the guy who dreamed about Ow. That´s cool tell me more about your dream! (But I don´t really believe you)

freakyLA 04-30-2001 01:08 PM

Hey how do you like the new picts. MY fav one is this where Abe and Munch swim it´ll be so cool that there´ll be water levels. And the one where this muds are stting in the air.

Oddipus 04-30-2001 02:49 PM

Pics: Super DeLuxe !!!
Video: hmmm, couldn't see it properly (but what I saw looked great!)
Sound: Fantastic music!

Lampion 04-30-2001 07:45 PM

Hi, folks! As Sligface, I also noticed that there are actually -SEVEN- new MO movies!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: (one of them is the trailer we saw at xbox.com, but now it can be downloaded!!!)
Gamespot new Munch's Oddysee movies

Hi, Melvin, there is this official theory about scrabs:

The scrabs we saw at the previous games were ALPHA scrabs. They are fiercly territorial and fight each other to the death in order to control his own area.

They are the stongest and the leaders of scrabs packs. the weaker scrabs just follow the leader, and if Abe possess the ALPHA leader of a scrab pack, he will be able to control all of them!!

Danny 04-30-2001 07:59 PM

my theory:

scrabs in scrabania are territorial because scrabania is a desert. they need to compete for food.

the scrab herds we've seen are in grasslands and forests, where there are lots of things to eat, so they don't need to compete. that is also why paramites are social creatures.

anyone agree? or am i talking to myself?

Oddipus 04-30-2001 09:06 PM

Lampion, I think there are 7 new video's at Gamespot (video 8,9,10,11,12,13 And Trailer 2) Maybe they just added a new one (#13)?

Lampion 04-30-2001 09:11 PM

Thanks, Odddipus. You're right.
