Oddworld Did you know? Munch's Oddysee

If you pick up a Slig, you can get other Sligs to kill it by making them fire at you? The Slig will absorb all the damage and die

It makes it possible to kill all of the Sligs in that Sloghut expresso run!

Dunno. I just found that out today. It's not exactly easy to pick up a Slig you know.

Yeah the Slig takes the hits but when it dies, you're screwed because the others tend to carry on blasting you.

Heres a somewhat relevant/yet not, video of a Slig falling from a high building, together with Monty Python voices http://alexfili.sitesled.com/highBuilding.avi

Getting Slogs to chase Sligs into recyclers is fun as well!
TOTAL CARNAGE!

Interesting. That audio from a live performance? I watched exactly that scene/letter yesterday and the rendition was rather different.

It was from the "And Now For Something Completely Different" DVD.
I got it in a 4 pack with the other Monty Python Films.

Some of the performances are slightly different than either the original TV show or the american tour DVD.

Are those still for sale because I bought a three pack which unfortunately did not include that - it was Holy Grail, Life of Brian and Meaning of Life. I still haven't seen "And now for something completely different", is it as good as the other three.

Oddworld

It was a 6-dvd boxset. It had an orange cover.
Basically it's a sketch show version of the best bits from the Flying Circus collection. Some of the sketches are so-so, but there are quite a few laugh-out-loud moments as well. I included a few of those in my Oddworld Parody 2 Video.

He's right. So, has anyone else tried using a recycler?

Two more little bits of info;

1) You can't possess Meeps for some reason
2) It's possible for 15 scrubs to beat a Scrab to death in hand to hand combat.
(Good luck trying this in AO/AE )

Meaning of Life is great. The organ donor scene is unforgettable.

Hmm, I'd love doing that to sligs, but too bad I don't have MO.

Actually, I tried this. It only works if the bullets hit the slig.

Well, typically if you are using the Slig as a human shield... you're holding him in front of you so that the Sligs shoot him. If you're facing away, they will be shooting at you, and the Slig will not offer you any protection BTW this only works if you have unlimited lives and sneak up on the Slig in order to pick him up. (Since when the Slig dies, the others will be shooting at you).

Still, it works nicely as a last resort.

An incredible error.

I never really bothered with this. I just find it easier to run past the sligs shooting at Abe.
