A lot of you have already responded with what I was going to say (i.e. with the future series, and movies). But I did want to point out that Oddworld Inhabitants (the company) will only ever make games involving Oddworld. You would never see them make a game that involved humans for example.
I did read somewhere in an interview with Lorne that there is always a possibility that an Oddworld character may be licenced to appear in another game. Like in the upcoming Kingdom Hearts game which is a Disney game made by Square, they will be featuring some of the Final Fantasy characters in minor roles. Although that is a bit of a different situation, I was using it to illustrate the possibility that Oddworld characters just "may" turn up in minor roles of other games in the future. Knowing Oddworld though, these games and companies would have to share the same ideals as OWI do (like you'd never see an Oddworld character in a game like Grand Theft Auto 3) or many of the 1st person shooters.
Abe Babe...
P.S. I loved the Final Fantasy movie... I saw it 16 times in the cinemas. *Wonders how many times I'll see the Oddworld movie when it comes out* The main problem was that it was too complex/required too much thinking for a "see once" movie (watch it several times and you begin to understand it more), and it was not "Final Fantasy" enough for FF fans, but tried to reach a more mainstream science fiction audience. It wasn't a blockbuster, but it didn't flop as bad as some movies out there. Anyway, enough of that in this forum.
