Yeah, I agree. It's amazing how much the purple sides create a real Oddworldy feel.

That was more than likely a member here called Alf_shall_rise or something similar.

No relation.

Well, I think that anyone has commented anything about this but, I remember that it used to be a download section on the old Oddworld.com site. You could download some music for the first game and other multimedia content. I would suggest a new download section with free content such as wallpapers (new ones please) music, videos or similar.

I wouldn't be so hasty...Luke does have special powers.

And also a download section would be nice, like "I Oddworld" said.

It needs a virtual thermometer that rises with JAW and Oddworld's progress. Not necessary their progress in development of old or new products, or anything, really. But it should be implied to be such.

If there's one thing this community is deficient in, it's confusion and patient expectation for imminent news.

No, because it doesn't need to go down to add to the news page. And even if it were some sort of change, you would get a maintenance message and not an error.

And it's back up...

I really wonder what made that site crash twice. I thought WordPress would be more reliable than that.

WordPress and PHP are relatively easy to use. If they can't handle even those, it doesn't give me very shiny picture of their skills.

I have no skills in php whatsoever, this doesn't mean I can't program in Java or C.

"profecional" means that they know more about us than what they are doing. they don't have to know anything about stuff they aren't doing. and i really doubt that the game programmers had anything to do with building the site.
Furthermore, i am great at using pcs or solving all kinds of problems. and part of my work is to do just that. However, i have very little idea how to use a mac. By your way of thinking, i should be great at using windows and macos because if i'm not good at one of them, i can't be good at either

I have a suggestion:

It would be cool if the site had a diary of sorts that let fans in on the development of Stranger's Wrath for the PS3.

So you suggest it doesn't matter how poorly their official website works? They should have decent web developer in their team. That site is meant to represent them.
