HEY, I'M TAKING A PAGE PUT OF ODDBODD'S BOOK HERE USING CAPS LOCK, BUT CALM DOWN PEOPLE. READ THIS FROM DEAR ALF:

Q: I am particularly excited about the new Oddworld game, but I have one worry. I know that Oddworld is now advertising for a soft drink company, therewon't be any references to this in the game will there? No blatantadvertisement? I have seen game like this, some times they pull it off, some times it comesoff as blatant advertisement. Which one will you be?

Alf: You are likely referring to the product tie-in that Oddworld has with SOBE BEVERAGES™, makers of fine, refreshing drinks. Rest assured that Oddworld would never subject itself to unneeded advertising, even for a splendid company which makes such quality products as SOBE BEVERAGES™. Don't worry about it...instead, go and have yourself a drink to ease your stress...why not a delicious Elixir or Lizard Lightning made by SOBE BEVERAGES™?

SO, TO RAP UP, DO NOT WORRY, I DONT THINK THAT THERE WILL BE A VENDING MACHINE IN THE GAME WHERE YOU CAN GET SOBE DRINKS, ITS JUST A PARTNERSHIP TO GET PEOPLE AWARE OF BOTH SOBE AND ODDWORLD. AND JUST TO SAY THIS, I WOULD NOT LIKE THE IDEA OF SOBE REFERENCES IN THE GAME ITSELF SIMPLY BECAUSE ODDWORLD IS NOT EARTH, AND SHOULD NOT HAVE EARTH ADVERTISMENTS IN IT. I LOVE THE ODDWORLD PRODUCT ADVERTISMENTS, "OUR SPEW IS YOUR BREW!" ETC. ETC. ETC.

SO DONT WORRY! (end of caps lock)
