Meechmunchie suggested that I post here, so I am doing it now (anyway that makes me one step closer to the 20 posts needed for my RP project :P).
My first glimpse at Oddworld was in PlayStation Magazine, that my uncle gave me once he finished reading it. I didn't have a playstation at the time but was still interested at reading the articles and all and found the Oddworld character pretty....well, odd.
Eventually I got my uncle's Playstation, once he bought the PS2 and one day, I tried a demo of Abe's Exodus, I immediatly loved it. I tried to get more information on Oddworld and eventually got a used copy of AE (which I couldn't finish without cheating, shame on me
).
After a while, a friend of mine had an Xbox and his mother got her hand on a copy of Munch, a copy I borrowed when I bought my own X-Box. I finished it and yearned for more and I played Stranger's Wrath, which I sadly couldn't finish because it was a rental and my Xbox stopped working
.
I recently played AO but since my computer screen was too dark, I couldn't see the bats in one level and finally flushed the game from my hard-disk. Currently waiting to see what Citizen Siege will look like even though I'm disappointed it's not a Oddworld movie (wish we could get a Odworld movie one day).
I'm a fan of Oddworld because I like how strange yet fscinating this world is. The way the Mudokons respect nature is also something that makes me like Oddworld so much and seeing how good Lorne is at telling a humoristic story that still make us think about the consequences of industrialization just amazes me.
Apart from that I love games in general (RPGs, FPS, Action, Horror), I like to draw but these days I'm more into making stuff with Photoshop (such as making my girlfriend look like she's been on a battlefield in the viking era :P).
I also hope to have some nice role-playing with the people here and discuss about the past, present and future of Oddworld with other fans.
I salute you, members of Oddworld Forums.
