For all I know, what Nate said could have been the worst possible insult imaginable, but I don't understand it, so I'll respond to Rich in my own way.
You know, it's almost as if Lorne comes up with ideas before actually carrying them through. If his errors were in sharing them with the fans, then the reason it's an error is because of people not cutting him any slack. Give it a rest. OWI is not dying, Lorne's ideas haven't run out, and there are a lot of people very excited at the prospect of working Oddworld into a fresh new medium.
OWI never announced either MO or SW would be on PS2. The first was simply assumed by the entire industry while OWI and Lorne kept trying to tell them they would develop for a different platform if it proved to be better for what they wanted, while the second was announced by EA before they'd bothered to determine whether it was possible or not.
