Abe's Oddysee OST
 
Just to let you know everybody that the official Abe's Oddysee soundtrack is now available on iTunes, it is also available for you to listen on Spotify as well :)

Crying because I want it badly but can't have it

JennyGenesis 08-08-2012 06:22 AM

Go listen to it for free on Spotify.

STM 08-08-2012 08:38 AM

This is bloody sexy news.

MeechMunchie 08-08-2012 09:09 AM

It's just the cutscenes, though. No gameplay music.

Wil 08-08-2012 09:27 AM

Wait for the Deluxe version.

Crashpunk 08-08-2012 09:37 AM

I still have those music rips someone did ages ago. But this is still pretty awesome :)

Wait for the Deluxe version.

Also known as the "Full", "Proper" or "Actual Soundtrack" version.

Wil 08-08-2012 10:32 AM

I don't believe those are the names we're submitting to iTunes.

JennyGenesis 08-08-2012 11:13 AM

Shit, I ran out of uses for "This is Rupturefarms" on Spotify :(

I certainly hope "deluxe" isn't either. That's the kind of title you appoint to an extra large cheese burger, not a soundtrack. Call it the "extended edition" or something inane like that, but not "deluxe".

Unless of course you are going for that kind of ironic, consumerist "New and Tasty" vibe. In which case, make it "Super Deluxe" and put on a big pink sticker that goes directly over Abe's face.

Also, I'm kind of disappointed. This is the same as the Abe-A-GoGo soundtrack. It still has the fuckdamn sound fx track mixed in with the music.

JennyGenesis 08-08-2012 11:53 AM

What's different about the Abe A Go-Go soundtrack then?

I thought they would be identical, and they were from what I remember.

They are the same, which is why I was disappointed. If they were going to re-release the soundtrack, I would have expected something of a remaster.

JennyGenesis 08-08-2012 12:02 PM

Ah right, I see your point now.

Sekto Springs 08-08-2012 01:56 PM

Guess you can't count on OWI for proper music.

Lorne said on his facebook that he likes Skrillex, and he said it in the worst possible way. Something about there being "hope for humanity" because people like Skrillex. I died a little inside.

I realize the two have almost nothing in common, I just wanted to complain about that.

OANST 08-08-2012 02:05 PM

I think we all already knew that Lorne is a giant retard with awful taste. Patchouli smelling motherfucker.

I laughcried now.

Well that's just not nice, thank the man for the sakes of the idea of Oddworld! D:

OANST 08-08-2012 03:59 PM

No. I think I won't.

Bullet Magnet 08-08-2012 05:41 PM

Step away, HorriblHarry. Slowly.

MeechMunchie 08-08-2012 06:11 PM

But... the hair...

But... the hair...

No one can resist the manly body hair of HorriblHarry.... I'm like bigfoot.

Back to topic, The OST is pretty damn awesome! Although 80-95% of it consists of the cinematic ambience.

Why would I pay for it on iTunes when it's available for free download on TOL?

MeechMunchie 08-08-2012 07:29 PM

I thought TOL had fallen to internet AIDS.

Nate 08-08-2012 07:33 PM

Nah, it was just a bacterial infection. Wil has dosed it up with pennicilin and most browsers/anti-viruses have now taken it of their quarantine lists.

This.
I think most of the regulars here already have at least one version of this soundtrack, long before this release.

I dunno. While I look forward to Abe HD, I feel Oddworld is following the trend of every other once-original game company: why take a risk with new stuff when we can repackage the old stuff? It feels kind of... snake-oily to me.

Gotta get their money from somewhere. Re-building AO from the ground up and re modernising it to familiarise new people to a franchise that hasn't seen an original title in over 7 years is a good start IMO. It makes a lot of sense from a marketing standpoint. I just hope it works for them, then we can get more original titles.

JennyGenesis 08-09-2012 01:31 AM

It looks promising, providing Microsoft doesn't stick their noses in again.
