Color version of the manual? -

Billy Cripner · #31 02-08-2005, 10:54 PM

I loved the AO manual and for some reason the second hand AE game I got didn't have a manual. very surprising

but I can't believe it isn't in color

The manual doesn't sound too good but I'm sure the game will make up for it (this is OWI we're talking about).

I was not really talking about the ending credits to the game, more of the staff photo in the credit sections thats in all Oddworld games instructions booklets...

Once again, no staff photo. Sorry if I wasn't clear the first time.

This may be a little off-topic. I got UK Gamesmaster mag review, and it shows that the box art is orange, not white.

Yeah, they have worst politics in the world of game-developers... Only Money, money and money....

The USA is the white one, europe is orange.

That's a shame. AE had the best one. It was huge and had tonnes of pictures.

For me, the Abe's Oddysee manual caries just as much mystery and intrigue as the game, and there'll always be a special place in my heart for that. I mourn for the days were Oddworld seemed big, nasty, unfamiliar, and utterly, utterly strange. I knew nothing about it, and I loved it.

Plus the AE manual uses something worrying similar to Comic Sans…

Truth be told, I bought AO as a platinum edition so I only got a black and white manual on normal paper (ie not glossy) so I can't really compare.

I have AO on Psx and I love his manual

Oddish · #43 02-10-2005, 10:42 AM

I have the the platinium AO, and it's colour, all the oddwolrd books except SW, I have are coloured.

With the abe games, are the PS and PC versions of the manual significantly different?

Oddish · #45 02-10-2005, 01:49 PM

My ones are for the PS1. I havn't seen the PC ones.

Billy Cripner · #46 02-10-2005, 01:56 PM

Yes, yes they are PC one is quite different than the PS one for example, for the PS one, the enviroment pages took up one page each for each enviroment, but the PC one, there are like 2 for 1 page.
