Those who started Oddworld with MO probably don't understand the reservations of the rest of us who started with AO, and why we feel Oddworld ought to be "darker" than it actually is, rather than half-comical.
As for me, I remember one of my cousins' friends showing me AO on a PSX demo disk back in '98. Then in 1999, a different friend of mine had an original release of the PC version sitting on his computer desk and let me borrow it 'cause I recognized the boxart.
Our parents fell out and I lost contact with him unfortunately - In effect I stole AO from him and had no way of returning it. :S But I did buy one of the "budget" re-release versions of Exoddus the following year.
