MO was a real flop, next to AO and AE. The first two games had seriousness in them. Hardly any serious humor, except for being able to fart, everything in AO at least was just dark and scary, with a funny thing happening every once in a while. AO was very serious.

They turned that up a notch with AE. They made it all a tad funnier. Gamespeak has a bit more humour to it. Cutscenes had more humour. And not one location had the scary feel to it that Rupture Farms had. Plus they changed Abe's accent, which contributed to a lot of the humour as well.

Then MO came along, and they went over the line. Munch IMO was a too weird character. For one I hated the 'retarded' look and behavior he seems to have. The accent, not to mention he was pretty much a worthless character to the game.
Icons in the game were to cartoony, the story was 10 times less then AO or AE, no great locations, no outstanding locations except for Splinterz and Vykers Labs.

Then luckily, OWI regained their reputation with Strangers Wrath, great locations, great character, great story and wonderfull graphics. Abesolutely fantastic.
