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 decided to step away for the Oddworld games due to low sales but I hope he returns one day soon to bring more great games from this truly odd universe.Read full review
Great game. One of my favorites for Original Xbox. Totally different game. Games like this are why I keep my old systems. OG Xbox for life!
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
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.
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.....
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!
