You don't need to apologise, it is a better name, I'm just trying to see the reverse argument. There are two very good points I've seen other people make, so they shouldn't be acredited to me, but I'm quite sure no one else has brought them up here.

The first is that the double entendre of Oddworld Stranger is now lost. ‘Stranger’, as it is used, is unquestionably a proper noun, and can't be used to describe the next game [as being stranger].

The second point was made by good friend Rick, who I haven't spoken to in ages, who commented on EA's explanation that the new title will “better reflect the spirit of the game.” So there we have it: ‘wrath’ is the spirit of this next game.
