SlapFight!
 
Hey all. I remember first playing Abe's Oddysee when I got it on a sampler disk and I remember when the mud's walk through gas and have a laughing fit and you have to slap them to calm them down. But you can also get them into a slapfight if you don't say sorry or something like that. Sooo, I then bought the game for my ps1 and now I can't remember HOW TO MAKE ABE SLAP. Can someone please HELP? My son is dying to see the slapfight!!!

I believe you have to press L2 and the X button at the same time.
And If you are playing Abe's Oddysee, Abe cannot slap. Make sure you are playing Abe's Exoddus.
..Umm... at least I think so.
G'dLuck!

You can only slap in Abe's Exoddus by standing next to a Mudokon or Slig (:D) by holding L2 and pressing X. If not next to a Mudokon or Slig, Abe will get angry instead, like holding L1 and pressing O did in Abe's Oddysee.
Abe's Exoddus is the two disc, more advanced edition, while Abe's Oddysee is a single disc game.

I remember having hours of fun with this feature - what I did was save at a room with lots of Mudokons, and get them all in a line (so, works best at the Muds after Aslik). Then, go to the middle and slap one, then move, so the return slap hits another Mud instead. Whenever a Mud is slapped, he slaps both people next to him - so what you get is a continuous riot in this line - until someone dies. Then they all get sad.

What you can then do, if you're especially cruel, is slap one - he will then suicide, causing the rest to suicide! Muahahaha! [/sadist]

Of course, "Stop it!" is the phrase to use in the event of a brawl or attempted suicide(s).

Zerox 12-31-2006 08:21 AM

That methods good when deliberately attempting to kill of lotsa Mudokons.
What's funny is getting them all in a fight, and yell "Stop it!". They al;l stare at you. One fart can set them all off again.

One fart... To rule them all! :D Why do they get angrier if you fart? Wouldn't it cheer the grumpy schmucks up?

The game I have is Oddyssee. But I may have been mistaken about the sampler disk game...it could have been Exodous. It was a long time ago. So, CAN Abe slap in Oddysee? I am getting mixed responses. I have tried every combo of buttons I could think of and I know I tried L2 & X. Nothing worked. It must have been Exodous that I played before. Was Exodous new in 1998? That's around the time I had the sampler disk. Maybe 1999. O well. I just remember that slapfight was really funny, and I wanted to show my 8 yr old son, who has now taken over my ps1 games. After the mud's would walk thru the gas, they would have a laughing fit, and u had to slap them to calm them down. But then I would slap them again, and that would start the slapfight until I said sorry. I thought that was the funniest thing I had ever seen. One more question pertaining to this. Do the mud's gt suicidal in Oddysee? I never knew anything about that feature. And if so, can u make them suicidal by slapping them ( assuming you can slap in oddysee ). thanx for all the input!

No, Abe can only slap in Exoddus. AO (the one in which he can't slap) came out in 1997 and AE (in which he can) came out in 1998.

No, Muds are pretty much emotionless in AO, and hence you can't make them suicidal. AO has its own lovelinesses, though...Personally, even though I have both games, Oddysee is my favourite.
But that's okay though...I've seen used copies on Amazon that sold for under $10. So there's pretty much no hassle in buying one, if your son's heart is that set on seeing the slapfight, as you say :D

By the way, you can also slap Glukkons.

Jordan 12-31-2006 07:02 PM

It's funny to slap Glukkons, especially when you corner them, they start yelling for help but they keep gettin slapped down! :D

skillya_glowi 12-31-2006 08:18 PM

And they jump around like idiots...ah, good times, good times...

Jordan 01-01-2007 03:31 AM

I'd just love to line some Gluks up and slap em and they all fall over like dominoes, that would be hilarious! :laugh:

Goresplatter 01-01-2007 03:33 AM

If you hit them at just the right time while jumping around you can have them do a nifty dropkick! :P

Coincidentally, on the screen which I practiced doing that out of sheer boredom, I also found a glitch which allows an infinite number of sligs to be created and walk around - I remember counting up to 53, then controlling them all with a single Glukkon :D
If anyone wants a screenie I'll give one, I'll work out how to do it again - it was in one of the first brewery levels that looked a bit like this:

| _____________
Glukkon Spawner | Orb ________ crawling slig
| (Background passage)

Lift______________Pants Machine____________________Way out ->

P.S. If the diagram gets messed up I'll delete it :P

Ah! I remember doing that aswell. I got the glukkon on the lift (and 1 slig) and told the rest to fire. It was funny! Also, i figured out how to posses the crawling Slig on that bit. I like crawling Sligs... So helpless... ^.^

Jordan 01-03-2007 06:28 AM

Hey Scrabino, you're back! :) Yeah, crawlin' sligs rock, they're buggers when they get by that electric wall though!

Mudukon Shaman 01-04-2007 11:05 PM

yo can u pic of 53 sligs it sounds really funny and i only have disc one of abes exodus so i cant get past the second half (even though ive finished it b4 i lost 2nd half)

Jordan 01-05-2007 06:16 AM

You only have disc 1? If I were you I'd re-buy a copy of AE, you can get it on eBay or Amazon very cheap, trust me, you don't want half of AE, it's very annoying!
