The overall concept of EVERYTHING in Oddworld being somehow linked with our world.

1. the taylored suits that Glukkons wear
2. the concept of pollution and wasting materials
3. the way Glukkons tend to look the other way when resources are being used up. (i.e. the RF incodent when Paramites and Scrabs were going extinct and the Muds were the doomed to be the next big thing in processed meat)
4. The amount of slang terms used as common lingo in Oddworldian language
5. The fact that everyone that can speak speaks English.
6. the Flying Slig's masks (WWII fighter pilot masks)
7. Beer being one of the best sellers on the planet.
8. Speaking of addiction, does anyone knotice that the Glukkon Cigars look EXACTLY like Earth cigars?
9. the Newspapers, blurry western photographs, and all-around Olde West feel of AE? Well, okay. The Newspapers are from MO, but you get the idea.
10. That nut Newscaster, and just how the Press Confrence scenes look.

Oddworld is somehow linked with us. Or maybe, Earth is the one linked with them and Oddworld is one big copycat.

I just enjoy the familiarity I get when I return to Oddworld. In the game.
