The art of Oddworld
 
Has anyone bought 'The Art of Oddworld Inhabitants'? I'm considering it, but it's kind of expensive. Think it's worth it?

Hi Paris. This book has been out for over a year now. Almost everyone on the forums have it.

It is definately worth it.

Slaveless 03-05-2006 10:33 AM

It is!? But why isn't it at Borders or somewhere else? Is it only buyable over the internet?

That's just PROOF that's it's worth buying, ya jack ass!

It's too good for normal public retailers.

Time to break out the Visa :)
What odd world games do you recomend to go with it? I'm on spring break so I have oodles of time to play the classics.

I recommend Sligstorm, Hand of Odd, and The Brutal Ballad of Fangus Klot

Those never made it. I'm not that new to oddworld!

Just testing.

The guy at Game Crazy talked me out of buying any Abe games, he said they were nothing like Stranger. But now I'm thinking I really want to play the rest of the series.

Well you didn't need to curse.

He said that?! The idoit! He doesn't know OW fans he just insulted. Anyway, they're just as good as SW. ;) Buy them. They'e priceless in my opinion.

Paris 03-05-2006 10:52 AM

I'm going to. If I get stuck in any games can I ask for help here?

Sekto Springs 03-05-2006 10:54 AM

In the ODDWORLD HELP forum, yes.

Slaveless 03-05-2006 10:54 AM

Sure can. That's what the "Oddworld Help" fourm is here for. ;)

Nath 03-05-2006 11:23 AM

BUT. AO & AE are completely different to Strangers Wrath. Be careful. These two games are much darker than SW. And i also think that they're harder (well, at first).

If you want to be a true Oddworld fan, then buy them. If you get stuck, you can just PM me ;)

Paris 03-05-2006 11:33 AM

I've been told they're platformers, which is cool - I like those.

OANST 03-05-2006 11:34 AM

He just wants you to pm him because of your avatar.

Leto 03-05-2006 11:52 AM

I want to commit suicide because of the avatar.

Paris 03-05-2006 12:00 PM

Oh come on, she's funny.

speaking about the oddworld inhabitants book. I got the book in Hong Kong when I was on holiday. I have to emphasie the greatness of the book. I was surprise in that most of their idea never reach to game.

The query is that I have a softcover version..they didnt have hardback one on display and didnt know at that time. The moment I saw it I want it. Like love at fist sight. :p is there any difference between hardcover? I am happy with what I got. Wouldnt change it for the world. I'm just wondering?

How many books have you seen what change their contents for hardcover and softcover?

Paris 03-06-2006 09:46 AM

There's a leather bound exclusive that sells for 100 dollars (US). It's limited edition or something.
