brace yourselves, another gaming history...
round about when i was five, dad got AE. since i was young (and in public school) i didn't care, except when dad made the sligs go "blech", or when abe farted. then when i was eight, i was digging through the old game pile, and i saw oddworld. i played it, allthough i could only get past the first few screens. two years later, i was able to figure out that AE was the second game, and convinced dad to buy me the games. mum didn't give a flying scrab $hit what i played (GTA), but dad loved it, and played with me. last year, i finally got an x-box and munch's oddysee for my birthday. dad did alot of deep thinking on the game, and decided that it was good for the brain (puzzles!). in fact, he saw the ultra value and quality of the seiries, that he made it a part of my homeschool routine! i loved it! i finally mosied over to the forums and found ultimate happieness and infinate information, (compared to the deserted chat rooms, filled with jacka$$es of course).
and that's the story of how i joi --- i mean what my parents thought of oddworld. *he heh!* -.^'
