Why is Phleg in the good ending?

abe333 · #1 05-09-2002, 07:55 AM

In the good ending of Abe's Exoddus, when the news bulliten comes on, why can you hear Director Phleg say, I HATE THAT GUY!
Wasn't Phleg blown up after he got the slig to " DISINGAGE OPERATION LIGHTNING BOLT ! " ?

So if Phleg got BLOWN up by Abe, how can he say,
" I HATE THAT GUY " in the news bulliten in the good ending?????

I don't think it's phleg...
It must be the boss of the Information tower of Mudos...

abe333 · #3 05-09-2002, 08:07 AM

Well i guess it might be, when you think about it, why would Phleg talk after Abe killed him, but whoever said "I HATE THAT GUY" must be someone who was not introduced in AO or AE, is he in MO?

***Xavier*** · #4 05-09-2002, 08:10 AM

no he isn't in MO
you know all the glukkons hate Abe

abe333 · #5 05-09-2002, 08:22 AM

I know that Glukkons hate Abe, so does this guy just sit in an office, receiving news about major events, then getting the newscaster slig to say it, and he remains secret?

***Xavier*** · #6 05-09-2002, 08:46 AM

maybe...
I think it's alos there the Daily deception is made

I think they're just playing reruns of the M.O.M.Either that or the news takes awile to be broadcasted and you only saw an early one.

One, Two, Middlesboogie · #8 05-10-2002, 11:25 AM

Can't be that, Oddling. Phleg died before the brewery was destroyed.

As we already know, OWI were pushed for space on the AE discs, so maybe they just re-used an existing vocal sample rather than make a new one. Or maybe it's Phleg's identical twin...

***Xavier*** · #9 05-10-2002, 01:55 PM

hmmm.
It can, but in the French version the voice are different.
So in my version it isn't Phleg

TheKhanzumer · #10 05-10-2002, 03:11 PM

It's not to unusual for two people to have similar sounding voices... especially if they are speaking in a language foreign to you. This was probably the case. One of the workers at M.O.M. (perhaps the cameraman or something) has personal reasons to hate Abe and couldn't restrain himself from expressing his hate, even in the middle of the broadcast.

I find it very unlikely that Phleg is still alive after being blown to steaming bloody chunks. Mullock on the other hand... I think OWI has something special planned for him.

***Xavier*** · #11 05-10-2002, 03:57 PM

a glukkon, camera man? No. Maybe out of his office while he's supervising the program... he screamed his hate.

dumboddrw2 · #12 05-10-2002, 04:31 PM

Its just a joke OWI put in you twits. Even though he is dead...

***Xavier*** · #13 05-10-2002, 04:38 PM

OWI's jokes are subtilers...
I don't think it's a joke

All of Oddworld is one big joke. Wanna take it seriously? Kill yourself.

Aside from that... I can't say much to the Phleg thing, as I haven't paid attention, and cannot be asked.
But I'd like to word that I agree with the theory that it is the manager that called that into the broadcasting room.

"ICH HASSE DIESEN ABE!" Ooh, so emotional, so superb, so... so... glamorous. I must have an autograph.

Y'know, it's been so long since I played AE, I don't know. I know one of my abe discs vanished, and it may've been the german version of Exoddus. *would actually have to stand up, go to her room and check... oooh, the work, the CRUELTY!*

But the bit I remember about the broadcast was german, of course. No d'oh ^_^ "Weitere Dinge in dieser Sache senden wir laufend!"

Oh well.

lmao, no. That's AE, the slig says it in a newsfeed sometime. I think in the same video we're talking about. :)

***Xavier*** · #21 05-14-2002, 05:52 PM

and... what does it mean in english ?

One, Two, Middlesboogie · #22 05-15-2002, 05:50 AM

According to freetranslation.com, it means "We send further things in this matter running", which I presume means 'we are investigating this matter'.

It just looked like a Rammstein lyric at first glance; it looks as though you could probably sing it to the tune of Sehnsucht.

abe333 · #23 05-15-2002, 05:53 AM

Rammstein are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rein Raus is the best song ever!!!!!!!!!

Ich Will Raus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

***Xavier*** · #24 05-15-2002, 10:34 AM

about Oddworld and music...
A friend notice that the whole AO introduction movie can be played in the rythm of "Blanche Neige"
it's totaly crazy

Genral.E.Stupid · #25 05-15-2002, 03:07 PM

"ich will raus"

i will out? whats that supposed to mean?
but you know that eiffersuct(however you spell it) is the best song ever

***Xavier*** · #26 05-15-2002, 03:33 PM

:

eiffersuct

what????

Rein Raus is the title of one of the Rammstein songs

Genral.E.Stupid · #27 05-15-2002, 04:06 PM

so's eifersucht (spellt right this time)

and i know rein raus is one of there songs its just someone put ich will raus which transelates to i will out

pinkgoth2 · #28 05-15-2002, 04:15 PM

Actually, what I posted about means "We always send new information about this", as opposed to "We'll send new information about this at 8pm" or the likes. It's emphasizing the "laufend" - (contextual) "always".

One, Two, Middlesboogie · #29 05-15-2002, 04:47 PM

I love Eifersucht; it's a great song. It starts off sounding like a really happy song, but when you actually read the lyrics you realise it's actually very savage!

munch man Abe · #30 05-18-2002, 01:45 PM

well first of all remember the glukkon spawner thing. and on top of that they were all clones of directer Phleg
