Holy Sock, Nepsotic can't accept the fact that AE is the "real" Oddworld.

By the way, I'm curious to see how Lanning will "re-write" Exoddus (when we know the story behind it):

Greg-That's good to hear. Story was such an important part of Abe's flow. What's the story for Abe's Exoddus?
Lorne- In Abe's Exoddus, the story picks up exactly where Abe's Oddysee left off. In Abe's Oddysee, Abe believed that he did a great thing by helping out his race. What he learns in Abe's Exoddus is that all of his actions, no matter how righteous they appear, will always have effects that cause another dilemma. In Abe's Oddysee, Abe rescued the Mudokons from the meat grinder then shut down the RuptureFarms plant. Well, when he shut down RuptureFarms, he unknowingly created an ingredients shortage for another Glukkon franchise. This new factory is called SoulStorm Brewery. And their brew is made from bones and Mudokon tears. Abe shut down RuptureFarms, thus he stopped the flow of bones from RuptureFarms to SoulStorm Brewery. But business must go on, so the Glukkons have started to mine an ancient Mudokon burial ground. Needless to say this is pissing a bunch of dead Mudokons off. And you can guess who they come to visit to ask for hel
It's going to be a much funnier game, without losing the qualities and the serious undertone that made Abe's Oddysee what it was.

Yes, Munch's Oddysee was scheduled to be the second game of the Quintology and we had not planned on doing a title outside of the Quintology.

However, many PlayStation owners sent us email and they really, really wanted another game on the PlayStation. Our game designers also wanted to do one more version of the same game style that would achieve and do many things that they weren't able to do in the first game. So we decided to do one more PlayStation title, picking up right from where Abe's Oddysee left off and ending right where Munch's Oddysee would begin. We also had a lot of story points that we wanted the gamer to learn about before we entered the world of Munch. Thus, we came to the conclusion to build Abe's Exoddus. So we look at Abe's Exoddus as though it is a bonus game.
