Similar (yeah right) ps games
 
I just got a playstation for the family for Christmas, and quickly grew tired of the "fighting genre." I was looking for more of a puzzle-type game, as I very much enjoyed the MYST series on the PC, and was pleasantly surprised when I bumped into Abe's Oddysee. Quickly made my way through that game, and am currently immersed in Abe's Exodus.

However, as I've already moved onto disk 2, I fear that I'm running out of game play. It's unfortunate that the further adventures look to be xbox only (I would have considered upgrading to a PS2) ... c'est la vie.

For you folks who've obviously enjoyed the oddworld games, are there any similar games out there. No, I don't necessarily mean "odd", but have a similar puzzle solving gameplay, without the incessant martial arts combat of some of the other ps games that otherwise look very appealing?

Thanks

Nope, I don't have any more puzzle games...

But the three best games I have in my collection are Wip3out (pronounced WipEout 3), Metal Gear Solid and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. An anti-gravity craft racing simulator, tactical espionage action game and a skate-em-up, respectively. I can strongly advise buying all three.
