Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty

So Abe is back in Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty (a re-creation of the classic PSOne and PC classic). Anyone else looking forward to it?

E3 trailer here.

Official website here.

I'm quite looking forward to it for nostalgic reasons

I know its not exactly the most anticipated game, but I enjoyed Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exodus back in the day

I was until I saw it was a remake, I'd much rather we got something new

FinglisHobbit · 12 Jun 2013 at 20:23

Yeah, maybe they'll do something new if this has any success? Although like I said, I'm just looking forward to it for nostalgic reasons and I don't think a new generation of gamers will appreciate it as it might look dated.

Just seen the date of Abe's Oddysee (1997). Man do I feel old

Yeah the originals were some of my first PC games!

I LOVED the original games on PS1. Spent hours playing them as a kid. Always wanted a new one

Bit of a shame its just a remake, they could have spent the time and effort making a new game.

"Hello"...

Hehe. Ah memories

Really looking forward to it, I have so many memories of playing the original on the big grey box.

Will be getting purely for the moments of nostalgia from the days of the PS1

"This is Rupture Farms"...

Is this a remake of oddysee? Loved that game but never finished it due to only playing it round a mates. So much better than the 3d ones that followed. I will buy this.

FinglisHobbit · 13 Jun 2013 at 09:37

Yes it is.

(Probably should have mentioned this in the op - will edit

)
