About this product

Product Information

There's never been another game design studio quite like Oddworld Inhabitants, and the developer's eponymous game universe only gets Stranger with this fourth full-console release in the series. Instead of showcasing the puzzle-based adventures of oppressed underdogs such as Abe or Munch, this game puts players in the role of a grizzled, mysterious bounty hunter who has little to lose except his patience. More action-oriented than earlier Oddworld games, Stranger's Wrath features lots of ranged combat and melee fighting in addition to its platform puzzles, and it is designed to allow players to choose their own path across its story arc.<br><br>In the role of the Stranger, players must take a mercenary approach to the adventure if they hope to survive it. They'll travel from town to town, learning of bounties on various local criminals and deciding which ones they will pursue. Since the Stranger usually has a choice of which missions he'll attempt, the game is more open-ended than the adventures of Abe or Munch, but certain objectives (and payoffs) must be accomplished in each area before moving on to the next.<br><br>A breathing bounty usually pays better than a dead one, but the hunter's methods of retrieving his quarry are also left up to the player. Though boasting formidable hand-to-hand combat skills and an aversion to traditional ballistic weapons, the Stranger is partial to using "live" ammo -- in the most literal sense. By attacking his adversaries with living creatures, such as annoying "chippunks" or noxious "skunkbombs," the outlaw hero can devise new and creative solutions for the challenges before him. In other words, while Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath strives to create a darker, more action-oriented experience, it also aims to maintain the playful, surreal humor and poignant, underlying social commentary that won so many fans of earlier Oddworld games.

  • Oddworld : A fun gaming franchise

    I had played all the Oddworld creation games except for this one when it came out. I had my hands full playing other games on the xbox. I decided before I made the leap to the 360 this would be the last game I'd play since the first one, period, on the xbox was Munch's Oddessy. I have to say ALL the Oddworld games I have enjoyed. This one follows a bounty hunter trying to raise money for an operation of some kind but along the way you use live ammo to capture the bounties. Even though the style of gaming is not new (fps) the concept is and I also like the fast loading times. The only thing I wish that it had was live aware....thats it, cause the game is absolutely fun to play as all the others. I chose to buy it here cause it was brand new and for less than retail. The creator ...

  • Oddworld Stranger's Wrath Review

    Great innovative first person shooting game. Halo style combat with an odd twist on animated creatures. Game is for original Xbox. My husband actually requested this game specifically even though he has almost every new game out. He described this game as a classic. The main feature that he liked is the non-traditional weaponry. (Uses the assistance of "animal-like" creatures to lure and capture enemies. Some questionable language is used but is an overall light-hearted game.

  • Out of this Oddworld

    I bought the game because I liked the way Oddworld Munch's Odyssey was produced. The environments, creatures and humor of the games really make them enjoyable to play, and this title keeps the tradition going. The crazy weapons and witty characters make the game fun in a gaming environment that is usually too serious. The only thing I didn't care for was the foul language. Not for myself, but because my 6 year old son loves to watch me play XBox, and he was really into Munch. This game, after getting him all hyped up, I can't let him watch because the language is a bit overboard for his ears, and mine, should his mother hear him repeating any of them.....

  • Oddworld Stranger's Wrath (Xbox)

    Bought it because I am a long time Oddworld fan...and it was the only title I never had owned and played. UPSIDE Gameplay is fair, movie scenes good and some of character dialogue is hysterical!!! The use of "live ammunition" - original and creative! Gameplay itself is relatively unchallenging. DOWNSIDE I was hoping for some of the classic characters...Abe, Munch, maybe even Elum. Sadly, I was disappointed. The are only the tiniest of links between this storyline compared to previous and later titles to even refer to Oddworld! If you want an inexpensive title and alot of laughs - pick this one up!
