Yes, our goal is that you can cloud share your save back and forth between the two versions

No, it comes about three months later I believe.
So if you already own the pc version will that get updated or will we have to buy it again?
Free update.
Praise the gods! Fantastic...I'm glad I bought the Oddworld pack.

Blame blame blame blame blame. JAW should change their name to Blame. Or make a game called The Blame Game. Funny how Stewart Gilray is savvy enough to know what cloud saving is but is somehow perturbed at the concept of PC gamers wanting options menus or the ability to actually play the games they paid their hard earned money for.

Oh man, you're in for a treat. Probably one of my favourite games of all time. And in widescreen 720p60 with updated assets and audio? What a proposition. Digital release of the year. Calling it right now.

Yeah, that really sucks. Especially considering the lack of BC for the Xbox release. It appears MS are adamant to deprive their customers of this simply divine game.
Shame on you MS.
Shame on you.

Well, this is a different systems and that was 10 years ago. Things change.
Vita version, aimed for launch, will need to buy different version for Vita.

There are 3 reasons we're not on the 360 ...
1. XBLA = that crazy 2GB limit
2. G.O.D. = we don't adhere to their "requirements" for release, all of which have been listed in this thread...
We WANT to release the game on 360, but so far Microsoft have done nothing but cock-block us on this, due to crazy red tape.
As it stands, the original sold less than 500k units on the Xbox, for whatever reasons. That is the BIGGEST item stopping us.
We even said we'd hold the PS3 version back a little for a simultaneous release, they still said no.
What's a company to do?

Forget ms and their dumb rules.
Only 500k? That's tragic. I bought two; one was for a friend.
Sucks that we have to wait for the PC one. I bought it on the (wrong?) impression that within a few months of it being released it was going to have the full models. In fact, I think there was a stage when it was going to get released with said models which was why I bought it. I think.
Will be sitting this one out, waiting for the PC update to hit. Don't see what's taking so damn long.

I was referring to their 360 customer base. Those without an OG Xbox or a good enough PC can't play it. And that is truly tragic. Almost as tragic as EA sending it out into the market with zero support. They just threw it out the door and locked it behind them. It's crazy, anyone who knows games must've been able to see how good it was.

Wow, I thought you guys had more than 8 people. Also considering you are only 8 people what you guys have managed with this HD remake is awesome.
(would totally apply to work there if I actually knew anything about programing lol)

Looks great. Bustling with atmosphere and nice touches. I really hope this sells well for you guys to consider doing other Oddworld remakes. Personally I can't wait to play it.
Ah, I missed some of those posts. Thanks for the clarification.

Bare in mind, XBL was DESIRED by the Odd boys. Hell; I was trying to get it on Classic XBox Games on Demand for the guys years back, but we were declined because they were phasing that program out. As for later, see GoldenHelment's reply.
FYI, I don't work for Odd or JAW, but I work with them. They DO want it on XBL, they're just trying to work things out with MS. That was the first platform I tried to get it on, as DUH, it's originally an Xbox game.
Otherwise, this is the best version of Stranger out there. Any differences with the VITA version? Ask Stew aka GoldenHelmet.
This is a really, REALLY fucking great game and I'm proud for the guys that they finally got it out there in a format more people can appreciate it on.
Also, don't forget they're adding 3D and move support later.

It's a very special, unique game experience. With the story, the gameplay experience changes. It starts as a fairly even-paced FPA. Then it goes more action RPG, then it becomes a full on blaster near the end.
I always described it as "The Dusk Till Dawn" of games, but that's not entirely accurate. Easily my fave Oddworld game by far, and I *loved* the Abe games.
