Yeah,Stranger is on the shelfs aright.
Are these the scores?! Whoa, a 100/100.
:
100 - Play Magazine
"This is the game that the industry should hold up as an example of what gaming can aspire to." (Feb 2005, p.56)
100 - Pop Culture Shock
"This is one game that will surely be a memorable classic years from now. "
95 - TotalGames.net
"What more can we say? Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath is one of the most beautiful, inventive and technically challenging games on the Xbox."
92 - Worth Playing
"Even if you are not a fan of other Oddworld titles I highly recommend that you pick this one up, as differs greatly from the previous titles and just may change your mind."
91 - Team Xbox
"Fans of the series will be sure to enjoy Oddworld Stranger's Wrath and newcomers for the series couldn't have picked a better time to join the rest of us as Oddworld Stranger's Wrath is easily the best we've seen from the Inhabitants."
90 - Cheat Code Central Platinum
"The attention to detail is painstaking with perfectly weather wood, rich rustic colors, dense and varied vegetation and of course the odd and highly imaginative creatures that make up Oddworld. The animation is smooth and fast."
90 - Edge Magazine
A game world that keeps bettering itself, until some kind of disbelief sets in. This dazzling technical feat is mirrored by some terrifyingly fast loading times, with no in-game loading and restarts from any save point in the whole world taking around two seconds."(Feb 2005, p.72)
90 - GamePro
"A unique beast, a first-person "shooter" that emphasizes brains over blazing guns. It's great to see Lorne Lanning and the Oddworld Inhabitants back in fine form & even if it's not quite the form you would have expected."
90 - Stuff
" Buy. Even if you have to dip into your own saving-up-for-an-operation fund. "
90 - GameSpy
"An outstanding game that successfully combines two genres while never feeling as though it's neglecting either of them. The missions are well thought out and fun to play, with the bizarre weapons only adding to that fun."
90 - Xbox Nation Magazine
"Developer Oddworld Inhabitants has done something quite remarkable in the creation of a first-and-third-person-shooter-cum-adventure combining guts, heart, brains, a sense of humor, and wondrous beauty." (Feb 2005, p.86)
90 - Game Informer
"As remarkable as the presentation is, the true star of this title is gameplay. I was blown away by the game's ability to seamlessly transition between frenzied FPS and harrowing third-person platforming." (Feb 2005, p.12)
88 - IGN
"They've created a challenging and unique title with great game design as its bedrock and superb graphics to make it shine. There are a slew of solid features -- from the unique Live Ammo to the first- and third-person camera perspectives, to the surprise shift more than half-way through the game -- that make up for the few minor faults."
87 - Official Xbox Magazine
"Despite a few missing links and annoyances, Stranger still emerges as a beautifully fun beast." (Feb 2005, p.71)
85 - Electronic Gaming Monthly
"Clever and unique, with more imagination in its weapons alone than other titles manage in their entirety, Stranger is a reminder of the importance of refinement and innovation in gaming." (Feb 2005, p.110)
85 - GameSpot
"A great game that brings together a few styles of gameplay startlingly well."
