One thing I do know is that I'd like to see some sort of first person game in the same area of Oddworld where we first see Abe. Doesn't even have to be a shooter. There are a lot of games which prove that hybrids work well... Depends how brave OWI and JAW are feeling, I guess.

In the big suggestion thread, I half-heartedly posed that when you possess a Slig, it switches to first person. I think that would be especially nifty if you were specifically using the Slig to clear a room of other Sligs. Of course, the problem is that the game is 2.5D and such a limited spacial plane wouldn't work for FP. Every area where you needed to posses an enemy to progress would need two versions; the limited 2.5D and then a more spacious one that accommodates 360 movements for FP. Unless you made it a rail shooter.

It might actually not be as complicated as it sounds if all you were doing was expanding the floor space and copy/pasting the props, but I don't know how that works, and it's still extra work for something that the original game did fine without.
