As a kid I preferred Abe's Exoddus, but these days I prefer Abe's Oddysee because of the reasons stated above and also for a large part because in AO you really feel like the underdog, the skinny guy that everyone tries to eat. In Exoddus, you can posess Paramites and Scrabs and order Sligs around, which is very cool, but it also takes away their creepiness and mystery. In short, I think you're too powerful in AE, you don't have to fear everything you see like in AO, what I think made that game unique. (among other things of course.)
