OI shut down? Wikipeadia

[RoryF]

I was reading wikipeadia today and saw this.
I was wondering if this is true or someone edited it stupidly?

[Jordan]

The search function. Use it.

OWI did indeed shut down shortly after SW was released. Since then, Lorne has announced several things, such as the production of Citizen Siege, an Oddworld movie and a new Oddworld game. The release dates are currently unknown.

[RoryF]

:O If OWI shut down how can they complete the quintology.

[OANST]

If all of us fans join hands and gently send all of our positive energy to Lorne, it will definitely happen. Oh, crap. No one will touch Havoc. We're screwed.

Notice: "Oddworld inhabitants shut down in April 2005 to persue the creation of motion pictures"

Havoc has wreaked it. Oh the irony

[AlexFili]

Just wear gloves.

[RoryF]

Damn, that sucks. Also, who edited this?
It's quintology.

[OANST]

Just wear gloves.

Genius. The plan is on.

[RoryF]

Genius. The plan is on.

What plan?

[OANST]

We can't tell you until you have been here at least a year.

[RoryF]

Anyway, I might post other things they are wrong with oddworld.
UPDATE: I'm not sure if anyone notice but I spelt Wikipedia wrong

Spirit Bomb...

Oh, and don't concern yourself with Havoc. I mean, there's really nothing we could do about it if he happened to... suddenly die right? Tragically run over with a steamroller? Surely the powers that be couldn't deny our request if one of us died due to unforeseen circumstances.

*shifty eyes*

Why don't they tell about their projects when they're more likely to be finished? I hate these promises that just make people disappointment, even if it's nicely done to inform the fans. This makes me more and more believe that Oddworld Inhabitants really is dead as they can't finish anything anymore.

[AlexFili]

Haven't you ever heard of a "comeback"? Just when you think something's dead and buried, you see something more powerful and brilliant than before.

It worked for Rocky, Take That... and it will work for Oddworld too. Just wait and see.

I hope it does or someone will have to create an oddworld flash game site. With tons of odd-games!!:O That would be cool.

All I really want from OWI is a picture of Squeek.
Well, for now.

Who is squeek? Do you know what being he is Mudokon, Slig etc.

[Sekto Springs]

It definitely did not work for Rocky.

[RoryF]

Does anyone know why OWI quit???

[Sekto Springs]

OWI didn't quit. They went under due to poor sales and other such issues. EA screwed them over, its what EA does.

Oddworld was popular with the average intelligent gamer, but gone are the days where video-games made you part of an exclusive club of isolative geniuses. Now the bulk of gamers are made up of the Halo and Madden fan, whose intelligence barely exceeds that of a carrot - their taste is no better.

This link is magical!

Ask your questions there and you'll get someone better than OANST answering.

No, nobody does.

[Sekto Springs]

Squeek, from what I understand, is a character Lorne developed before Abe or Munch and he had planned to introduce him sometime later in the franchise.

RIP OWI and Maxis.

Better than OANST? Holy crap. That's quite a qualifier.

OANST your avatar is the greatest.

OMG!!! EA?! They are so evil. But, they created NFS damn. I would've said someone make them have to quit. My evil plan has been destroyed.

[Josh]

If OWI wants to be noticed, they should make Munch's Exoddus. The story will somehow involve the original Munch story and Munch taking the Gabbiar to be fertilised. They will make millions and have enough to make Squeek and re-hire all the old staff. Oddness will rule once again.

i always thought of squeek as being a Rat seen as how lorne said that he would be a species overlooked in earlier games and the name squeek makes me thinke he could be a rat.
