Polygon Magazine
 

Sorry, forgot which thread this was being discussed in :fuzzle:

Anywho, on Oddworld's main page they have up a nice ole picture of our hunter friends. Even though it's small, they look really cool...

"Trying to sell someone on what makes Oddworld, Oddworld is like trying to explain what makes a person human. Like any living thing, Oddworld is defined more by a collection of traits rather than a single label." That's what writer Brendan Sinclair said after his recent visit to the Oddworld studios. Read his cover story in the March issue on newsstands now."

thanx guy.
wow, Max allready reported it on oddblog and gave you credit...

Wow, the poacher looks really cool and lazy.Good find Esus.For some strange reason, the magazine on there reminds me of Jeepers Creepers.That's strange...:fuzconf:

I hope someone can get a bigger picture of it. Nice find! :D :D
Anyway, that looks just like the Grub Hunter only a little thinner and more....well...intelligent. They defineately wear the same clothes. Compare...

You can see that the actual full sized cover will have an expectionnally high-res shot of the hunter, he's gonna look really good.

Do you have a scanner? Or a link with a better pic? Get up quick! Must see the rest! :fuzwink:

i still think we are getting closer to Rayman! why does noone listen to me!

I do have a scanner but I have nothing to scan. That image was taken from Oddworlds main site - and I doubt it's even possible for me to buy the magazine - livin' in England an' all.

I just meant that the hunter looks pretty damn high-res even on a small version, so it must look really good on the large version.

I've played all the rayman games, I don't know what you're getting so worked up about. Very few things look even remotely rayman, ferill. Wait for the actual game before rushing to such a conclusion.

Anyway, Esus...I wouldn't worry. It's the march issue and it's not even march yet.

The designs are different, but they are a long way away from rayman.
The big guy on the mag cover is the same guy who is in the centre background, of the old logo for the Stranger game, who i thought was another Steef. Obviously not.

Oh yeah, I'm definately buying the March issue. Then, I'll scan it for our "America Impaired" members. Hehe, I'm excited about this. I can't wait to see what lies behind the March pages of Polygon.

-oddguy :fuzcool:

Is Polygon selled in Ohio?I would like to snatch one and start readin' the March issue.

Don't bother, our butler Oddguy will fetch the picture and give us a transcript of the article. Won't you sir Oddguy?

Well,in that case,*Stops looking for Polygon on the internet*

*talks in british accent*

As you wish, sligslinger......I live to serve. May I have the keys to your auto so I may give it a wash and wax?

-oddguy

I've already been looking for it (Magasines usally sell monthly issues ahead of the actual month.) and I couldn't find it in any store I went so I decided to order it online a few days ago so hopefully I'll get an issue any day now.:fuzsmile:

Can't wait to see it...

OT:
Funny how you instantly talk in an english accent as soon as you "play the butler"... hehe...

It's the basic stereotype. The cool british butler. I mean, if I had a butler, he'd have to be english.:p

-oddguy :fuzcool: pip pip

Why do people think that about the British!? We dont talk all posh. Were rock hard animals!

Well, I think it's more thought about the english. British could mean Irish, Welsh or Scottish... but yeah, people only talk posh when playing up to the stereotype in my experience.

maybe i should start talking in English English...?

Good find, Esus. Can't make out much, but the belt and belly do indeed look like the Grub Hunter. If that's him, though, he's lost his throat-pouch. :( Can't wait for the scans/imports.

Alternatively, buy the magazine and increase their sales, giving them the rightful impression that there are enough fans of Oddworld to warrent these kinds of features.

It could also mean Cornish, West Country, Norwichian (ahem), Liverpudlian or Cockney. Each with its own distinctive accent, too.

English English? You mean Queen's English, right?

aye mate.

example: "One has been for banging shit"

One accent I don't like hearing is that of Norfolk, its proper farmers accent, like. With things like computer and stupid pronounced with a hard p... Annoyingly enough, I have that accent...

Don't worry Max, they're not the same guy. First of all neither of them are the same colour, besides in this picture I attached you can tell that they are two seperate people. :fuzwink:

Yeah the guy on the left has a much more gaping type of jaw, kinda like Munch's. But from what I can see I am almost certain that the guy on the left is the one on the cover.

Ah, you're right. Funny how they have the same belt and belly, though. It would be interesting to see what's on that buckle, though.

It'd also be interesting to see a proper picture of the crab, but it seems nobody's yet bought February's Polygon Mag.

Max is right. Those who have the magazine availible to them really need to buy it. The scans are mearly for those who don't have Polygon in their area.

I don't think that at all. I just said it's the basic stereotype of british, which is quite funny because most british don't even act like that...at least I think so.

-oddguy :fuzcool:

Well, I've been to everystore in my area; Barnes and Noble, Boarders, etc. and they've either never heard of it or don't have it in stock yet. Thats why I ordered it online something like a week ago, which means it should be arriving any day now. As soon as I get it I'll let you all know.

Dont worry about it Oddsville, I havent seen it anywhere, nor had I heard of it before it was mentioned recently.
