I'm not sure. My guess is that it'll be Oddmobb, seeing as J.A.W. were only commissioned to do the port, not to do any original work.

They'll probably be like Steam achievements, seeing as that's what they are.

Okay, will there be lots of achievments for gameplay and storyline...

***Nate*** · #**212** 08-17-2010, 03:12 AM

How should we know? Nothing has been announced about them yet.

GABBITS OWN · #**213** 08-17-2010, 03:16 AM

Okay... looking forward to this...

One thing is sure, it won't be multiplayer related.

GABBITS OWN · #**215** 08-17-2010, 03:22 AM

Okay, like on ps1?

Hmm, are you sure JAW is doing the Oddbox ports? Someone asked Stewart Gilray about it on that questions/answers thing, and here's what he said:

:

Question: Ok yeah I am not familiar with Stranger. I never played his game. I am going to wait for the Oddbox. If that is still going to be released or not? Can you give us an estimate date if so?

Answer: Oddbox is still coming I believe, but that's not our bag

Which lead me to believe JAW isn't working on the Oddbox.

Okay, rephrase my last post:

:

I'm not sure. My guess is that it'll be Oddmobb, seeing as if J.A.W. are involved, they would only have been commissioned to do the port, not to do any original work.

Doesn't change the point I was trying to make.

EDIT: AO and AE both say 'Oddworld Inhabitants' for developer on Steam. I imagine that they'd follow that pattern as that was the name of the company who actually developed the games.

Lord Stanley · #**218** 08-19-2010, 01:27 PM

So we still have no release date and no real knowledge if they've changed anything about it?

Gilrod · #**219** 08-19-2010, 02:32 PM

I can confirm, that Oddbox has NOTHING to do with JAW...

OANST · #**220** 08-20-2010, 08:33 AM

So there really is more than one new Oddworld game in development with your company?

Havoc · #**221** 08-20-2010, 08:48 AM

Quick question, will Munch Oddysee and Stranger's Wrath also be playable with a 360 controller?

Daxter King · #**222** 08-20-2010, 09:04 AM

Even if they aren't, fairly sure you can make them use it with the Steam console.

Fatherbrain30 · #**223** 08-20-2010, 09:59 PM

I have a logitech controller, it works fine, there are many controllers out there that can do the job. This really isn't much of an issue.

Havoc · #**224** 08-21-2010, 02:38 PM

Some games/ports make it an issue.

lismati · #**225** 08-22-2010, 06:46 AM

Even ıf they do, there's a program (I don't remember name), that can port any buttons on joystıck (any, even WııMote, I've trıed) to any buttons on keyboard (mouse too), so I dot see an ıssue here.

Leto · #**226** 08-22-2010, 08:34 PM

Is the Oddbox still not out? LOL

FOR FIVE FUCKING YEARS! its actually starting to piss me off now, i mean, i really appreciate (i think thats how to spell it) them doing their work, but they cant set deadlines and not go by them.

***Wil*** · #**231** 08-23-2010, 05:32 AM

Way to ignore all context.

Havoc · #**232** 08-23-2010, 05:44 AM

They've actually become quite good at that.

ODDWORLDisTHEbest! · #**233** 08-23-2010, 05:47 AM

become? they've been good at it since they started! they just shouldnt do it, its not fair!

Havoc · #**235** 08-23-2010, 05:55 AM

All 4 games will have Steam achievements and I suppose they will come in the original languages they were made in (being English, German, Spanish and a few others I think).

lismati · #**236** 08-23-2010, 06:02 AM

All steam games I happen to play (wıth achıvements OFC) had them ın Polısh so I wonder. It would be quıte nıce to see a bıt of Poland ın my favorıte game serıes :P . Englısh ıs good too, but U know.

***Wil*** · #**237** 08-23-2010, 06:07 AM

The games have never, as far as I'm aware, been translated into Polish, and I doubt they'd add it now.

lismati · #**238** 08-23-2010, 06:11 AM

Yes, but I thınk Steam Achıvements are on Steam database, not on a Game (I thınk so), so I thınk ıt wouldnt be hard to translate just them, not the whole game.

The deadline for MO was respected, right on time for the Xbox launch, look what we ended up with...

Leto · #**240** 08-24-2010, 07:51 PM

Oh snap.
