Am I the only one who does this?

Before moving on to the next area in Oddworld, I look at the elaborate backgrounds for a good minute. Anybody else do this?

I often stare at the backgrounds. I like those in necrum, mudomo and mudanche best.
I would like to live there
There is a double background in Rupture farms?

If there was a double background in RuptureFarms, it'd probably be reversed so that left was right...

I really like the cool backgrounds. OWI must have spent a lot of time on them.

I have a theory that entire levels were put on a background "Blanket" of which obstacles for Abe to walk on are placed upon.

I wish that you could pause the game without the pause screen, so then you could look at any where with a camera. So you could see stuff better, and in different angles.
