Lattest clues on upcomming game

Oddsville · #1 06-01-2003, 10:48 PM

Ok I know this probably won't help much and most likely everyone's already seen it but I just created this topic just for the point of discussion on it. Now if you go to the Rasins Rants section all the words are darkened except "Discovery Channel watch calander...". The first thing I thought of was the channel tittled "Discovery Channel" here in America (not sure if they have it elseware) and I have seen some shows about CG and the such on it before so they're could posssibly be something comming soon?

I know what your saying oddsville over at one of the halo sites they were saying there is going to be a special discovery channel thing on microsoft's gaming industry featuring several games, like Halo 2 with some new info, so maybe this means OW4 will be revealed in it too. I'll try and find the date they are showing it on Discovery channel. Well atleast its something to think about.

I think whats going to happen is that the info we are going to get will be brief but very interesting because of the top secracy at OWI. But it will be something none the less. And I am looking forward to it! Yay we finally are getting clues that we can actually work with now. Yay! This is starting to get very intresting very intresting indeed.

damn... I don't have discovery channel.
does someone know if I can wach it on line?

Al the Vykker · #7 06-02-2003, 06:09 PM

Im sure someone will be able to tape it or get it on the web being it is going to have several games such as OW4 and Halo 2. But I will probably tape it just as long as I find that date.

Guys, I was checking the Raisin Rants pic when I noticed something...

I know the words with the capital letters have been discussed, but we only talked about the first letters... But now, with the revelation of the words "Discovery", "Channel", "Check" and "Calendar", I noticed they all had capitals... What if there's some sort of connection between the words with the capitals?

Then u get the words Fanaticans*, Inhabitants, Discovery, Channel, Holiday, An*, Spectrum, And*, Than*, Watch, Days, Calendar, What*, E3*, Clue*, You*, G and D.

(The words with a * being mostly the first words of the sentence, not sure of whether to count them or not, as there are other words which are first, but haven't got a capital letter... As for E3, I can't really figure out what it is supposed to be...)

We already have Discovery Channel Watch Calender, so maybe the other words fit in too, in some way...

Just a thought tho...

wtfz · #9 06-02-2003, 10:35 PM

Oddworld game production should be stopped immediatly.

MojoMan220 · #10 06-02-2003, 11:13 PM

Sweet, I just checked "Rasin's Rant" on Oddworld.com! It looks like we will finally get some news on the next oddworld game. Its a good thing I have the discovery channel.

paramiteabe · #11 06-03-2003, 02:23 AM

Well I don't. Well Xavier welcome to the club. Your not the only one on the forums who doesn't have Discovery Channel. This sucks. I just have regular TV but I am planning on getting Satalite hopefully soon. I am just hopeing that someone on the forums who does have it tell us unfortunate members what we missed. Ya know?

Al the Vykker · #12 06-03-2003, 02:52 AM

Im not sure if this is the program that will have the oddworld information, but heres one new lead.

X Factor: Inside Microsoft's XBox

Look within one of America's most dynamic companies and see how it may well shape this country’s future. With billions to invest they are entering a no-holds-barred battle to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry's lucrative video game market

Ill keep searching I know this is going to have Halo 2 new information within it but this also might be a prime chance that OWI will show OW4. We'll just have to see. But as always dont keep your hopes too high.

Oddsville · #13 06-03-2003, 11:29 AM

Most likely Im going to record it, so if anyone wants a coppy (Xav, and PA?) I'd be more than willing to send them one.

***Xavier*** · #14 06-03-2003, 12:14 PM

I would love to have a copy Oddsville realy I would be great!

Mojo · #15 06-03-2003, 12:40 PM

just look a few posts above...

Al the Vykker · #20 06-05-2003, 01:04 AM

Well Alf confirmed tonight on oddchat that there will be some OW4 information in the discovery channel, on the date I listed a few posts above. June 20th Discovery Channel, 8:00 PM. But besides that nothing else.

We tried to get some more information, but he was still silent...OWI is still busy away working on this game, and dont have any other time for anything else. He also commented that the game would not be out for 2003, along with they would not say anything else about the game for the next few months.

Sorry kids, we tried.....but to no success, enjoy the DC program, and he said that should give you plenty to talk about.

If you want to hear some of the conversation PM me or I can talk on Instant messenger.

Hurrah for Atusiya!!! Good Job finding that out! Well... It is an option...

***Xavier*** · #23 06-05-2003, 11:50 AM

nothing for the next few months? arg, I can't believe it
that's horrible

paramiteabe · #24 06-05-2003, 12:43 PM

I tell ya they are tortureing us with the lack of info on this game! Well at least we will have something to talk about. But how long will that last? But I guess its for the good so that we have that big surprise when it does come out. Just keep thinking 2004 2004! And that is our year!

Sekto Springs · #25 06-05-2003, 05:32 PM

PA's right in that account, oddworld's dangling a worm in our face, we're the fish, they torture us so!!! but any, and i mean the kind of "any" where the slightest drop of newness OWI reveals, info would be beyond gnarlisciously awesome....kalabunga.................nap time, nighty night sweet suzy

Ratz Revolutionary · #26 06-07-2003, 12:01 AM

We allready tought about that, it is true it is a bit lower then before, but I don't think it is realy that

slig_hunter72 · #28 06-10-2003, 05:48 PM

Lorne Lanning = true genius because he can get us so worked up over a video game.

Of course, Oddworld is better then your average video game. Oddworld = Best thing since sliced bread.
