Thanks for your replies

Maybe i've judged too quick, it seems like Oddworld are aiming for the right balance. I've got to admit i enjoyed the native side of the games although i prefered exploring the deep depths of the facilities. Back when Sony launched the PS2 i was really hoping Oddworld were going to adapt the new power and technology of the console and use it to their advantage to make the environments even more stunning, even for 2D the quality and thought put into them was truly amazing. It seems personal choice does come into play and to be honest i should get outside more. Perhaps with me being really interested in computers and being an electronically minded and motivated person i overlook the tranquility nature has to offer. I now hope the game will interest me more in that area and really create one of those titles that you can always play and never get sick of. Thank you for sharing views, keep them coming
