All who have played Munch, Ask yourself can you really see the difference in the game. To be Honest you never get see Abe really close in the game, thus making that a waste of polygons. He would looks the same at either resolution. They should have did some in-game cut scenes, that way they could show off that he's smoother. They could Have saved those poly's maybe to move the Blue Fog in the game back so you could see more of the level. That image is to make PR people happy, it shows no difference in power or the skill of the artist or programmers. Plus its old news...

Well, sorry Xavier,
and, Its' not "news", its a comparrison between PS2 and XBOX. I like thge xbox because of Munch's Oddysee, thats' the only reason I want it. I basically want to set my sights to Munch even though I like PS2 games too. (Final Fantasy X, Tony Hawk3,Jak & Daxter, the cool stuff on PS2)

While my favorite console is the Xbox, I still have enourmous respect for the PS2. There is a slight graphics difference, from what little I've seen, but it's not that great. The graphics potential for the Xbox version weren't taken full advantage of, but I don't care. It still looks and plays great.

Well I own an Xbox, my brother owns the PS2,
my other brother owns PSX, and my brother and I own N64. I have faith in Oddworld, they did a damn good job for their first time through. Now that they are with Xbox they won't have to switch around coding on the game.

Well that image shows a huge difference in the PS2 and Xbox versions, but Brew Master is right. If you play Munch's Oddysee, you never do see them up close, so the smoothness is a bit of a waste of polygons. OWI should have stuck with their original story (having Abe kidnap the broken legged Munch and Munch hating Abe for half the game, introduced queens etc.) and released it for PS2 as well as Xbox, instead of rushing it for the Xbox launch. I could understand if Squeek's Oddysee was only on Xbox, because the system would have already been established and I wouldn't be surprised if SO requires to use the Xbox hard drive to run the game. I don't really care, seeing as I own an Xbox and MO, but I sympathise with PS2 and PC owners. It's a bad business move for OWI, but I'm no Glockstar, and they won't be either.

i would personaly like to say that anyone who has an x-box likes it, and anyone who doesnt have one only disses it...... little pattern there. but everybody who disses it for one, says, they dont wan it cause its MICROSOFT!!! and then they go diss the 300$ price tag. its like, whoa there buddy.... but true, you never see it up close, the could have used that stuff to like make the fog less and stuff like that. or more natural wildlife, like birds and maybe small bugs or soemthin. to make more of a natural enviroment.

Hey I personally have an Xbox and a PS2, so I really don't care what systems it comes out on. I just don't think OWI shouldn't say Munch is better cause its on a more powerful system. New and better systems come out kinda frequently...what are they gonna do change everytime!?? but if they keep saying other companies systems suck...they burn bridges that they might need later...

That's a really good point. Odd forbid, something happens to the Xbox and it goes the way of every american-built console before it, what'll happen to Oddworld? I have a good deal more respect for Microsoft than I did a year ago, but, still, they are known for being ruthless with their intellectual property. If Xbox tanks like so many Ataris, it could very well take Oddworld with it, an unfinished masterpiece forever lost to the... I can't even finish, it's so depressing a thought.
