What's best?
 
When the Oddbox is released it will be good news, I think we can all agree on that. But what would be the best thing to happened involving OWI? What is it that we're all hoping to get out of this dedication? When will Oddworld end? How will it end? Will it end? Has it ended already?

All these questions have best asked countless times by us guys BUT, after the Oddbox has come, what would be the best thing to happen to Oddworld? I believe that if they released "Oddworld: Squeek's Oddysee" as a game on every console along with a decent advertising campaign it would sell well! Provided it was a decent game I didn't rely too much on playing the previous games although involving Abe and Munch.

The best thing that OWI could do is finish the Quintology via games. After that they can go on to make Oddworld movies with those characters BUT ONLY 1! It would be great to see Abe, Munch etc. on the big screen but after the quintology they should leave those characters alone and start a new story. Much like an author and a series of books, Lorne should start new characters within the same world. Movie's, games or even books I don't really care.

I personally think that would be the best thing that can happen to OWI. Thats what I want and that's why i'm still here. What about you?

What is with all the underlining?

That sounds like the best thing that can happen for us Oddworld fans rather than OWI. I reckon the best thing that could happen for them would be winning the lottery, or starting a fresh IP and comin back to Oddworld in the future, which is what they were doing anyway

Make the rest of the Quintology with games, then give the last chapter a film adaptation too.

Well, don't forget your umbrella.

I now await either Xav or Max's massive moderating cock of doom to smite our posts.

As soon as I saw the title of this thread, I just thought: "Me!"

I just want to see the new website up, and maybe a new game eventually. I'd like to see Oddworld on something equivalent to Cryengine 3. If not, just go back to the 2D stuff which is equally awesome

That's a tall order, pal.

The best thing would be if they actually make a fucking game.

STM 04-23-2010 03:44 PM

best thing would be if they finished every game and then Lorne Lanning personally visited us and gave us his hair gel!

No need.

STM 04-29-2010 11:27 AM

Yes but he should present a bottle to us!

Luskan 04-29-2010 12:10 PM

A book wouldn't be a bad idea actually...

Fischkopf 04-30-2010 08:12 AM

A Oddworld motion picture would be so cool. :D

To keep with the times it has to be 3D! :fuzemb:

Can you imagine an oddworld film with the graphics of avatar? monsaic would be immense

enchilado 05-08-2010 03:42 AM

H'm, I don't know, it'd be going a bit far if it had Avatar's graphics as well as its story.

Hawf Wit 05-12-2010 03:49 PM

i would like to think the revenue would make more games, and i would like to think, as with other, series they should return to their successful roots, another abe sidescroller would be unbelievable

Sekto Springs 05-13-2010 12:36 AM

Jeez, how many times have we had the Oddworld vs Avatar conversation already?

STM 05-20-2010 08:08 AM

I hear that oddworld would get a lot of BS because abe is a blue alien and avatar has blue aliens and... oh

MeechMunchie 05-20-2010 08:11 AM

Considering you heard that from us, I don't think you need to tell us again.

STM 05-20-2010 08:32 AM

Hmm, sarcasm and joke doesn't make the journey through internet well does it?

enchilado 05-20-2010 03:52 PM

They do from the talented purveyor.

Ðefiler 05-22-2010 03:29 AM

Thanks for all the feed back people :)

Nate 05-22-2010 05:33 PM

Feedback?! You didn't ask anything...

Daxter King 05-22-2010 10:46 PM

Sometimes I ponder what if I bought the Oddworld IP? I would likely publish shitty fan fiction as actual work just to piss people off. I would license it out only to devs who know their stuff, such as Sega, and those guys who make the Harry Potter games. The movie would be a porno really, with Stranger being a large black man. Overall, Id say thats the best thing to happen to Oddworld.

Crashpunk 05-27-2010 02:34 PM

Why do I find that post really funny. I really shouldn't.
