when did you bacome an oddworld fan
 

hi guys when did you become an oddworld fan I became one when I first played the demo for oddworld abe's oddysee ever since then I have loved oddworld

Hi, this should be in General Discussion, but since the very begining I played AO, the fan corner is for 'Fan Things' like drawings of Oddworld and stuff like that

fuzzle guy's right...
I started with playing munch oddysee, but I really became fan after half-way strangers wrath.

sorry guy's but it is fan stuff isnt it

I've become a fan when I first saw my cousin play the demo on PlayStation on the end of 1997 (I was a little scared of that game at the beggining though :D). Later my parents bought me a computer and Oddworld was my first game :)

Yeah it's fan stuff, but the fan corner is meant for things like fan art story's, drawings, you know.

tell me then five why were you so scared of the game. but when I was five my bamp laughed at me because were playing the demo once and I pointed at abe's hair and said it was his ariel and I said when he was possesing I said the blue stuff was electricity

why? Well, the guy had his lips sewn together and he was chased by some dog-like creatures, who wanted to kill him (I thought that Sligs are dogs). Plus there was blood on the floor and meat falling from the ceiling, and the other bad guys (aka Glukkons, but I didn't knew that back then) wanted to do a snack out of their workers, including the mentioned before creature with stitches on his lips (my cousin translated most of the things for me...as a kid I could understand very little from the intro)..and I don't know....that atmosphere...to be honest I can't remember most of the reasons, but they were enough to scare an eight years old girl :D...dear odd, that was so long ago.....

yes I suppose it is a bit creepy if you walk into a meat plant today and the boss want's to do that.I loved the game when I was five and played the demo but the temple's were anoying

My cousin sent me this game, I had a PS1 already. I popped it in, Man when I saw Abe I was hooked. But actually i was at Rupture Farms and Stockyard.

the frist game started my addiction for oddworld

It all started when my mate of mine said to me" Hey, I got new cool game, where you can posseess your enimes" Now I liked the sound of that, so I wanted to see hows it's like. And when I first saw the AO intro movie I got real hooked. And we proggessed through game. I realy loved everything in this game, I was drawing the creatures out of the text book.

Later, I saw someone got this new game, it was AE, I got even more exicted when there was going to be more of that Abe dude. I bought the game before I even had a PSone to play one. When I got to play it, i was I even more hooked. It took ages to finnish it, when I did, I knew that there going to be a new Oddworld game with Abe in it. I realy become an odd fan back then, I oddworld was my fave game ever.

Then heard about new next-gen consoles. I looked through the magazine, when I saw this little screenshot, it was a Scrab with the windmill hut, and it was 3D. I got so exicited about this game, Munch's Oddysee. So I did what a real fan would do, find more info and learn more about this game. Boy, was I interested . I loved the art too!

More info I get on oddworld, more of a bigger fan I became.

well munch wasn't as good as I thought but at least oddworld put some new creatures in it I loved the interns.my addiction went on and on and on until my bamp took me into a game shop ae had just been realeased the front shelf of the shop was covered in AE cases can I have that game please I pleaded that when I got ticked off because munch's oddysee was only on xbox until my mum's friend had an xbox and we bought munch but it wasn't as good as I thought

well, i found abe in a store (most of this is from my bio) selling out old games, i saw the box with i guy i reconised (it was abe from the munches oddysee add on a bus. once i got the game, i had to wait a week to atcually play it. the computer i was using didn't have sound, so i pretty much just loved the game. it was so realistic, yet odd. i felt i could almost walk into the game becuase of how it was done. then i put the game on a computer with sound. i loved the darkness realisticness of the CG movies. i loved them!
then some people told me about abes exodus and munches oddysee. i later bought the game, munches oddysee (soon after i my brother and i had a xbox). i was amazed again by the quality of the CG movies and the fact that i control abe in 3D and could explore more of oddworld. and from a then on, i had become an oddworld fan, or more of one i had been before.

do you think munch was a bit down the drain bacuse there were no objectives in the game

a little bit yes, but the first couple of levels of the game, i absolutly loved them!

yeah I loved the snoozie labs level

i liked the snoozie lab too! first time ver knowing and controlling a snoozie was!

I like to pick up sligs with the crane and drop them on mines

I like to take very slig and pu them in the cage and pick up a keg and... MASSACRE! :lol: LOL!

I became a fan when I was 6 or 7...My father brought home Abe's Oddysee, and, well, I loved it. It is what started me in drawing (And getting in trouble for drawing during class). My father really regrets buyong the game now. :p

I first got into Oddworld from Abes Oddysee ad (not sure if it was the same as the US one, but it showed Abe getting chased by Sligs and getting killed by Scrabs) and then I play the demo heaps and finally got round to buying the game.

After finishing the game I was completely hooked and was a fan of Oddworld.

Oddworld was the main reason for me buying a X-Box.

I first see Abe in 1997 (I was 7 years old). My first game was AO demo for Ps1

Played demo that came with PlayStation. Fell in love instantly. Never looked back. Most constant thing in life over past seven years.

Basically, I was just browsing Gamespot and just looking at possible game categories I would be into, not really looking for anything per se. Then I noticed this game called Oddworld: Stranger. So I took a look at the environments movie they showed and I was just blown away by the graphics and the whole concept of 1st to 3rd person action. Wow, I thought, this has got to be one of the best games ever to be conceived! So, I slowly became interested in it, hyping myself up for it ever so slowly; joining the Oddworld forums on the GS boards, joining these forums later after that, telling all my friends on other forums about it, and just getting so excited to play the game. I got the game finally, and ever since it's been on my top 10 games of all time list. I suppose I won't have Fangus to add to that list... *sigh*

I Like picking up sligs with a crane and dropping them in a recycler! I Became a oddworld fan when Oddworld Abe's oddysee came out. I bought it then I loved it!

When I first saw Stranger on Discovery Channel.

I kinda have this big 'junk collector-quality,' meaning I do most of my shopping at yard-sales and flea markets. So once, several years ago, I bought this big box of old gaming magazines for, like, two dollars. And the first one I read had this big, three-page fold-out ad for Abe's Oddysee on the inside cover. It also had a really positive review of the game with these great screenshots showcased. Therefore, years later, when I saw a copy of Abe's Exoddus at a second-hand game store, I knew I had to pick it up. Abe's Oddysee soon followed, and the rest, as the say is history.

Once when I was like 5 or 6 years old, my dad told me about a new game called "Oddworld" that he saw in a magazine. He showed me the magazine and flipped to the page, and I thought it looked really cool, so I asked him to get it for me for Christmas. (Which was one month away) So on Christmas Day, I got the game, played it, and loved it, and stayed tuned for the next Oddworld game.

Yep, that's my story and I remember all of it. *takes a bite out of his scrab cake*

I was 11 years old, and I had first gotten my PS1, so my father rented a bunch of games for me to play on it. One of those games was AO, and honestly, I was terrified by it (I found it to be very difficult for someone who had never played any videogames before). A few months later I decided to give it another try, and loved it *immensely* :D . I got AE the day it was released and although I've never played any of the X-Box games, I've been a fan of Oddworld since then.
