The art of Oddworld

Has anyone bought 'The Art of Oddworld Inhabitants'? I'm considering it, but it's kind of expensive. Think it's worth it?

Hi Paris. This book has been out for over a year now. Almost everyone on the forums have it.

It is definately worth it.

That's just PROOF that's it's worth buying, ya jack ass!

It's too good for normal public retailers.

The guy at Game Crazy talked me out of buying any Abe games, he said they were nothing like Stranger. But now I'm thinking I really want to play the rest of the series.

BUT. AO & AE are completely different to Strangers Wrath. Be careful. These two games are much darker than SW. And i also think that they're harder (well, at first).

If you want to be a true Oddworld fan, then buy them. If you get stuck, you can just PM me

I've been told they're platformers, which is cool - I like those.

speaking about the oddworld inhabitants book. I got the book in Hong Kong when I was on holiday. I have to emphasie the greatness of the book. I was surprise in that most of their idea never reach to game.

The query is that I have a softcover version..they didnt have hardback one on display and didnt know at that time. The moment I saw it I want it. Like love at fist sight. is there any difference between hardcover? I am happy with what I got. Wouldnt change it for the world. I'm just wondering?

There's a leather bound exclusive that sells for 100 dollars (US). It's limited edition or something.
