Oddworld should sue...

This is from the xbox game Shadow of the Sun. Seems pretty Oddworldish running on a crappy engine.

:fuzgrin:

First post, woo, nice fuzzle smilies.

NyQ

Holy sh!t Oddworld should file a Lawsuit against that. They look just like Mudokins. Hell yea Oddworld better sue. We need Alf to take a look at this!

Paramiteabe...:fuzblink:

And the background looks like the Almighty raisins cave:eek:

can someone contact alf? he's gonna want to see this.

Yeh, they cant sue. I do Law, if they were going to sue they would need actual evidence...not some shitty pictures like that, so, calm down children...

Yea but Jacob if that is actual game on X-Box then can't OWI just find out who created that game or which company made it and then use that for their evidence?

Your worst then the fat chick on the View...:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

OMFGWTF!!!!

HOW DO PEOPLE GET AWAY WITH THIS?!:fuzmad:

IT MAKES ME SO MAD!!!

FUZZLES...ATTACK!!!

:fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad:

I'd say theres a mild amount of overreaction and assuming here. It could all be coincidence, you know. It most likely is... a human with something stuck in his head isn't the most creative idea around, you know.

What the hell? They look nothing like Mudokons.
Major over-reaction there. The only thing that looks remotely similar is the thing sticking out of their head but people have their hear in ponytails and OWI don't sue them.
Good odd! Every cave in the universe looks like every other cave!

No. They would also have to prove whether it was intentional or reckless, this would take alot of time and i'm sure the Lawyers of America would love to help dwindle OWI's money away. Which is another thing, if OWI's did sue they would have to hire a Lawyer, and a good one at that...and they cost money...lots of it.

Well first off, I wouldn't call it overreacting when, at least in my case, it was a joke. It just seemed like an appropriate topic for the content of the thread. However, I do think these fellas from this game do look quite similar to mudokens, face, hair, skin hue. If there were 'Brute Muds' or something in Oddworld I would think this would be quite clsoe to what they'd look like.

However the suing part was just a joke.

NyQ

that is such a copy they prouble did it because Oddworld is such a succsess.

Yes, perhaps they should sue the human race for having a similar face to them.

Facisimilie (or however you spell it) are you following Big Bro around? Cos in every post he/she has posted in, directly afterwards is a post from you...condeming him/her, its vaguely amusing.

Jacob, being that OWI is a company, I'd say it's safe to assume they already have lawyers.

And NyQ, your joke wasn't wasted on me. I got a good chuckle from your post alone, and then about everyone over reacting...oh my.

what the hell? mudombies?
well I think those devloppers need to change the look of their characters quikly

What the f**k is this? What next, they send out modified screenshots of MO? But, unfortunately this is not enough evidence to sue. They look like zombie generic alien mudukon. They really do suck. No lawsuit yet people... Try again next month.

Oh my god! It's Abe's grandpa!

Hmmm I just saw this and I'd have to say exageration. Sorry but at first I thought it was a good case for a sue, but the more you look at them, the more they don't look like muds.

(btw, yes I'm back)

i think you guys are over exadurating



hahahaha exactly...

and omg that looks like a crappy game

p.s. putting your runescape stats as a signiture is not cool in the slightest way possible

change of heart
 

At first I thought maybe this is just a coincidence but after that pic...maybe Alf should look.:eek: I dunno why they never saw this before:mad: :flames: !

Sue? Naaah.
 

I see it I see it already!!! Sheesh! The resemblance is there, undoubtedly, as at least one article has stated. I doubt that it will result in a lawsuit, though. The qualities that make OW truly unique have not been duplicated here...

Of course if one of them happens to be named Alf, or Abe, me and my buddy might have to open up a can of... :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad: !!!!

Re: Sue? Naaah.
 

wow, awesome reply Alf!
I doubt that any studio can copy the Oddworld toutch

Nah, they shouldn't sue for that.
But, i did find a SONIC THE HEDGEHOG game in which, you have to find these wierd animals, lead them past various obsticals, and then open a portal and get them to leap through it to save them.

And in Abe, you have to find these weird aliens, lead them past various obsticals, and then opena a portal and get them toleap through it to save them.

Anybody, noticing a resemblance?

yes, there is a ressemblance... but if you are starting like that I think Doom should sue Halo for shooting on peoples in a 3d environement :stare:

Dude, what the hell? EVERY Sonic game has the little critters. And even if your logic was true, you have it completely backwards. Otherwise, you'd be saying that Sonic, back for the Genesis, copied the idea of saving little critters that came out 2 years ago! Sheesh.

X-box have no proof that it is a real game as it is not on the official web site of X-Box

Never the less it does look like a pretty shitty game. I wouldn't buy that game even if my head was sewn to the carpet! Sheesh

That second picture though that is viewed as Abe's Grandpa surpriseingly looks like the cave in the Meep Herder village sort of. hehehe I find that to be a coincidence.

They would be usefull as Mudokon Security Guards... :D


But they are just like Mudokons! The creator must be an Oddworld-fan or something. :fuzconf:
