EA + OI = PSP !?!

Ok, now calm down, deep breath. Its not for real. Its not even a rumour. But it is now a VERY real possibility. Now stop rolling your eyes and listen up for a second. And stop sniggering at the back.

For those of you who commute or travel or have ANY use for a mobile gaming platform, I'm pretty sure the beeeeeeeeeyoootifully crafted PSP has caught your goggles already. Now picture this.....a portable Oddworld universe. Look, if they can squeeze the Stranger into the creaking old innards of a PS2 then the near powered PSP ccould handle a compendium of Abes or a dinkified Munch or even a Stranger sub-game.

Lornes dedication to storytelling and art would mean a licensed and out-sourced game most probably, but a wirelessly linked Oddowrld RPG is not too far a stretch of the imagination. EA is obviously leaning its wallets on OI (hence PS2 conversion) and will want a piece of the new PSP market. They have already staked a claim with their ongoing licences (bond, sports, etc.) but an original intellectual property would put them on top of the heap of publishers as few are risking freshness, aiming rather for safeness.

Just a thought. Sweet dreams

I doubt OWI themself will ever do that, as they prefer devlopping on Xbox.
it might happen, but it doesn't intrest me if not made by OWI

It always starts with a great title , then turns out it's justa suggestion.

If who or who wanted to make an oddworld game on PSP,then well it could be. I was thinking if Crig the Slig could be on that. I don't realy think if OIW knows if to produce a game on Playstation Prototype.

What, like Hand Of Odd, but, wireless? If so, the PSP might not be able to hold its graphical capacity... But they can get MSG: Acid running on it fine, so there is hope...
