oddworld fangus CANCELLED!!!!!!!!

[strangerdanger92]

can u belive they cancelled the new ow game.
it looked freakin awsome.

[strangerdanger92]

who else thinks this is just wrong!

[Xavier]

Please don't dubble post...

The cancelation was anounced about a year ago so most of us got over it

[Wil]

It was cancelled two years ago, when OWI stopped internal production.

A lot of people were relieved, because they didn’t like the look of Fangus.

Also, it’s not an Oddworld game.

Welcome to Oddworld Forums.

[Jordan]

I have a feeling that is all he had to say, he probably won't be contributing to the forum much...

Yeah, Fangus was cancelled quite some time ago, so don't make such a big deal about it.

[strangerdanger92]

i know
i had to let it out somewhere.
they should do another oddworld game though
like a strangers wrath 2 or somthin.

Are you like... Obsessed with Stranger or something?
Yeah, OWI should make another game, but after Citizen Siege, and they probably won't let us down.

[strangerdanger92]

no
i just think its the best ow game.
gameplay wise

[Jordan]

Yeah, it's a great game.

[strangerdanger92]

finally
sumone agrees with me.

Yeah, I believe lots of people would agree with you. But you need to be patient and wait for people to reply.

[strangerdanger92]

im not a patient kinda guy
ill try though.

[Xavier]

Well Fangus was supposed to be some kind of Stranger 2, not story wise but gameplay wise... It would be based on the same engine.

But it got cancelled, face it...

[moxco]

Oh. I thought Fangus was an April fools trick.

[Xavier]

No, it was real... but OWI got some problems with their partners

[Zerox]

It looked TEH WRONG.

If any more Oddworld games, the classic 2D ones would be what I'd want. Those were the best, and most games are 3D nowadays, but there's alot about 2D games that seperates them from 3D. I think it suited Oddworld so much better. Nicer environments etc., and some puzzles wouldn't be possible in the same way.

I agree with you there. But people want 3D now, and OWI might not even get enough money from any new 2D games, but I'd like it as much as you do.

[Bullet Magnet]

Barring the end of modern civilisation and the eventual re-invention of video games as we claw our way back up to our current status, along with the bizarre survival of Oddworld Inhabitants through the whole ordeal, there will never be another 2D game.

[strangerdanger92]

so was strangers wrath the last ow game?
cuz if it is that really sucks.
i luv the ow games.

[used:)]

NO SHIT


:O


But yeah, I thought it looked like something good.

[Nate]

So go outside, find a nice empty field and yell "AAAAAAARRRRGHGRAAAAH!!!" at the top of your lungs. That way you won't be spamming our pristine forums.

Oh, and if you don't start putting at least a modicum of effort into using grammar, I will hire my grammassassin (i.e. Max) to hunt you down and teach you the importance of the Shift Key.

[strangerdanger92]

ooooook?
look im new at the forum thing allright.
cut me sum slack

Welcome to Oddworld Forums.

Wasn't there speculation that it was part of a different cycle which was related to Oddworld in some way?

[Xavier]

No, all we know is simply that it's another universe where "humans" didn't evolve from monkeys but from cats and dogs

[G.A.Pster]

Yeah, Stranger’s Wrath is my favorite as well.
I think I read that there will be a citizen siege game to go along with the movie you at least have that to look forward too.
.............................
I think if citizen siege does well OWI may get back to the OW games (or at least I’m hoping they will)

[squeak117]

Is there any information on this? Because I got the idea that it was an Oddworld game. Where did you get this information? Even if it isn't an Oddworld game, i'd say that's a pretty creative dystopia.

[Xavier]

Lorne told us when Max and I met him at the Gamecity

[Nate]

ooooook?

I know. That's why slack is being cut. I was merely pointing out to you what behaviours are expected of respectable forumites so that you can have a lovely stay here.

Oh, and... Librarians rule, Ook!

You are so freakin' lucky, I wish I could meet him.

[Reiji Neko Mitsukai]

I'm eagerly looking forward to Citizen Seige's release and seeing what the brilliant minds in OI created this time around. As for Fangus, I don't think it really would have turned out that great- AO and AE were absolute hits, but MO and SW don't seem to be doing so well on the popularity scale. And from what I've seen (that is, of course, assuming I got the character and the production sketches matched correctly) Fangus seemed a bit too human to be Oddworldian.

YEAH!
