By the way, would you class Oddworld as fantasy?

Good question! Short answer (because this could probably be a thread on its own): If I painted with a broad brush, I'd definitely classify it as Fantasy, though I'd be more inclined to say Dystopian than anything else. Dystopian, with Fantasy elements—such as the heavy focus on mysticism—overlaid with a Science-Fiction coat of paint, which would be the weakest classification if you asked me.
EDIT: What about this? A Dystopian story of Fantasy (Nature) vs. Science-Fiction (Industrialists).
