ODDWORLD RETURNING TO VIDEO GAMES *Mentok explodes with JOY*

[Mentok]

**** YEAH!!! SOMEONE GOOD PICK UP THIS GAME... E.A CAN GO AND GET ****ED FOR KILLING "ODDWORLD-STRANGER'S WRATH"



Soooo... Oddworld are returning to videogames (after founder Lorne Lanning famously left the industry after being ass raped by E.A).

"Citizen Siege" is being developed as a CGI film (Lanning Directing) and a videogame.

That's ****ing awesome! I love the Oddworld games! t:

 

[Fenrir]

They simply MUST bring back Abe. I love that guy.

 

[Mentok]

I thought the first CGI ODDWORLD film was going to be a retellling of Abes story?


Still, Siege sounds good.

IMO, a NEXTGEN ODDWORLD game will be simply amazing. Just look at what they did with STRANGER on the XBOX.

 

[Avalanche]

Is it set to be exclusive again?

We got the original Oddworld on PS1. Or was it PS2?

The first two - Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus were on the PS1 after which the team jumped ship to Microsoft. It's director, Lorne Lanning, was one of the most vocal industry critics of Sony and the PS2 hardware.

YAY!

Abe > You.

The first 2 are also available for PC.

Ah right, that slipped my mind because I only played them on the PS, although I do remember seeing them on PC shelves.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I want Stranger's Wrath to be BC. As well as Conker.

 

[Silvermoth]

I'ld love a Conker sequel.

As for a new oddworld game, Thats great! I just bought Munches oddysee. Any news on who the main heroe will be?

Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty must sell 500K to fund new game in series, creator says

​

Just Add Water's upcoming remake of the PSone-era adventure gameOddworld: Abe's Oddysee needs to sell half a million units in order to fund the creation of a new Oddworld game, series creator Lorne Lanning told Eurogamertoday.

"If I'm doing a new Oddworld game, I'm not going to do it for $2 million. I might do it for five or six," Lanning explained. "People keep asking me, 'Why don't you Kickstart Oddworld? You could get at least $1 or $2 million.' And I'm like 'What would I do with a couple million on Kickstarter? On a new Oddworld title?' Not much. I could redo Exoddus for a couple million. I could do that. But a new title, which means new characters doing new things and controls that are great - that's where the real time and expenses come from."

Lanning additionally revealed that Oddworld: Abe's Oddyssey - New 'n' Tastywill be priced at $30 when it hits digital platforms this spring. He notes that sales in excess of 250,000 will fund the creation of Just Add Water's next planned remake, Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus HD. 500,000 copies sold would earn enough revenue to revive the stalled Oddworld series project The Brutal Ballad of Fangus Klot, which Lanning estimates is "a $5 million title" at minimum.

Lanning is optimistic about hitting the target, given that the self-publishedOddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD has sold around 600,000 units across the PlayStation 3, PS Vita, and PC platforms. Sales for the remake eclipsed the original EA-published Xbox version of Stranger's Wrath, which only "sold about half a million units," according to Lanning.

This could be the oldest thread ever bumped.

 

[zenith16]

I'm pretty sure it won't be. I should have done this some time back when the creator told the people at EPN.TV some time back that they were starting this up again. when they started their pod casts.

 

[Silvermoth]

I love the odd world games too. I was so sad when I found out they wouldn't get to fulfil their vision of having five game series with new characters set in oddworld

 

[TheBat812]

I've never played one. what makes them so awesome?

 

[KevanG]

I remember having the first one on my PS1. It's crazy and weird gameplay. $30 is a bit much but I'd consider buying it.

 

[gohei_]

I only played Abe's Exoddus but I remember it being really fun and incredible hard at some points.

 

[Broseph44]

Loved these games back during ps one, so def buying this.

 

[Silvermoth]

I've never played one. what makes them so awesome?

It's not like anything else on the market. It's clever, well written, funny and a real noodle scratcher

 

[Drz]

30$ is a ridicilous bunch, i don't think Stranger's Wrath HD cost that much lol.

Still, i really would love to see The Brutal Ballad of Fangus Klot finally happen.

Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath PS4 version a possibility, according to creator

Abe's Oddysee may not be the only game in Lorne Lanning's Oddworld series to be getting a makeover - Lanning told Eurogamer at this year's Game Developers Conference that he'd like to bring the 2005 Xbox title Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath to the PlayStation 4. Stranger's Wrath HD already exists on the PlayStation 3 and Vita, but Lanning said this version would be "a new SKU with some new dynamics."

Of course, wanting something doesn't necessarily make it so. "We're still going over budgets and schedules and stuff like that," Lanning cautioned. This makes sense, considering Lanning also stated that the upcoming Oddworld: New 'N' Tasty would need to sell at least a quarter of a million units to fund more HD translations of the franchise.
