Best Xbox Game: Oddworld -- Munch's Oddysee



This year's Electronic Entertainment Expo played host to a myriad of great looking Xbox titles. Picking the one title that beat out the rest was not easy but Oddworld Inhabitants certainly has a lot to be proud of with Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. Originally slated for the Playstation 2 console, Munch's Oddysee is now destined to be an Xbox exclusive. Taking advantage of the power of the Xbox, Lorne Lanning, co-founder Oddworld Inhabitants, is finally able to tell the story he once imagined with incredibly detail, seen both in the characters and the environments that surround them.

Munch's Oddysee places players in control of a Mudokon named Abe and his Gabbit partner Munch. Each with their own advantages and disadvantages, players will have to learn to use them as a team to solve the many puzzles set before them. Special psychic powers, power-ups such as Expresso, weapons, vehicles, and dozens of Oddball races combine to make for an entertaining and immersive gaming experience. Munch's Oddysee is exactly the kind of title Microsoft needs to carry its Xbox through the console wars coming this fall. GameSpy awards Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee its Best Xbox title of E3.

That comes from a very high standing top notch site, not just anyone, but we all already knew this anyway, right....

I beat ya to this one Steel Shark! :D I put it up on Oddworld-Web last night.

Not sure if you noticed, but Munch's Oddysee also got best Xbox game from IGN Xbox, another top site.

It's good to see Oddworld getting all these "best of awards". :)
