Scrabs, I owe them my fandom.
As I toddled through MO it didn't strike me as a particularily special game. Then I got to the scrabs. The first appearance of wildlife. They were my first glimpse into the true Oddworld and it changed how I felt about the game. I possesed one and watched them interact with each other. These were real creatures, with more purpose them than to attack the player. They were alive.
Oddworld was no longer a game to me. It was a living breathing world.
(obviously I don't think that those little pieces of code are alive, it's just that being an animal freak the lure of animals that interact is one that I couldn't resist)
