not quite, they dont make games anymore, they have moved into making films/movies
They are making Wage Wars which is a game, and someone emailed Oddworld Inhabitants and got an answer that they will still make games, only they will also make movies and TV shows.
It is a different medium, you can't compare TV shows with movies, not only on the level of money and marketing, but each one is targeting on a different "users" (I can't find the proper word for it, excuse me)...
Okay, it would be very cool if one of the canceled games came out. I'm certain Squeek's Oddysee will come out. I'm almost certain Munch's Exoddus will come out.
That would be great, finally to see Squeek...I can allready seen in my mind sligs in a beautifull highres textures, with post processing effects and overbright...
Astoundingly enough I am inclined to agree with MeechShrykull, if Squeek was a Slig do you not think the cartel would have recognised the handprint on the moon yet.
Also I could swear we had PMs for 1-1 chitchat.

I don't like any lies about Oddworld. They are LIES. If Oddworld Inhabitants will make Nod's Oddysee, or announce it, I will like it, but if it never gets announced, it remains a LIE.
Someone ha created this rumor to support the idea that OWI has told to the fans of the quintology. But as I think about it, the next game that was planned after Munch's Oddysee was Hand Of Odd....In the OWI Tour video we can see large crouds of running mudokons.Like in a realtime strategy game (C&C) ....
That was only to test the ability of the A.L.I.V.E. 2 game engine running on Xbox to produce large crouds, something OWI wanted to do more and more throughout the Quintology. I’m convinced it was actually Munch’s Exoddus they were working on at this point; The Hand of Odd had gone under long before.
Okay, I haven't read anything you guys wrote here 'cause I'm in a hurry right now but I want to say a little something and hope that I don't repeat someone's post.
I've read that Lorne Lanning wanted to make a movie because it's a better way to "control" the characters. That's why it probably won't be that fun for you gamers to watch and not to play what happens in the story. (I can understand that! I love playing video games.)
However, Lorne also said that there are chances that more games about Oddworld are coming after the movie is finished.
Citizen Siege truly seems to be a very promising project of Lanning's, and I'll look forward to seeing it soon.
