PS2 Version
 
Even though I already have an X-Box, I was overly dissapointed over the fact that it was coming out for X-Box and not on its first possible release on the PS2. I have heard that it wouldnt be able to take all the graphics, but they could have obviously made em a TITCHY bit worse. Also, the speed problem, PS2 lags a tiny bit like max payne and spiderman, but Max and Spidey work like angels on the X-Box, and I still love em both. What I am trying to say is, even though it wouldnt really compare to the X-Box one, why didnt Infogrames/Oddworld Creators release it for PS2 as well? They would have made a helluva bigger profit if they did I say.

That's true. But I think they may have felt they didn't want to cheapen the experience by spreading themselves too thin. Besides, they had a deal with Microsoft, and personally I don't think it would be well suited to the PS2. By the way, where did you get that avatar? It's quite good.

Well the folks at OWI are always looking for the best ways to get thier visions shown. The PS2 was good but OWI had to cut out alot of things just to get the game to work, alota stuff that they really wanted to express. When Xbox came along the saw not only the true potential of it but its massive power also. OWI knew that with this system they could get thier vision developed and more. Keep in mind the OWI was on a tight shedual and didn't really have time to make the game the way they really wanted it. They had to cut out a massive part of the plot and leave out even more cool features that the game was offering, but Lorne Lanning promises us that the next game will be just like we wanted MO to be.:fuzwink:
