  To the people leaving negative reviews, I'm sorry about the game being nearly 2 decades old, but it's £2. If you think this game isn't worth £2, please reconsider your life choices.

  This game is a timeless classic for me. It was the first PlayStation 1 demo I played to the disc's breaking point. It was the first full game we got for the system. And to this day no other platform game, cinematic or otherwise, can touch it in my eyes. New 'n' Tasty brought back those feelings, but the original is always enjoyable to go back to.

  Abe's Oddysee blew my mind on the PS1 when I first played it. It was one of the first ps1 games along with resident evil 1 & 2 and Metal Gear Solid I ever played, and it still holds up today fantasticaly. Everything in this game, the sound, the music, the art direction, character designs, world design. It's all magnificent. Def worth a play today. New 'n Tasty is equally competent but nothing beats the original.

  Ah, Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee. There is much that can be said about this particular gem of a game, good challange, great fun and a lot of old fashioned slapstick humor. As I play this game I start to reminice, reminice about the old times long past; it began in 1990- something, when I was just an inexperienced youngling with the world ahead of me. I had never heard much of games, save the windows 95 classics such as minesweeper and the like. I remember the cold winter evening when I sat behind the window, about a week earlier we got a letter saying that my father was honorably discharged from the frontlines, and that he would return home. He had fought the swedes in the attempt to secure Norways freedom. I saw a shade move into the garden, the sound of footsteps pressing their way into the wast snow on the ground. I ran to the door to find my father standing there, standing so proud, yet humble in his fusilier uniform, the musket over his shoulder, and a smile of joy visible through his thick beard. As he stepped into the house I saw a strange gray box in his left hand, a box that would later change my life. Me and my father played many an hour, many games with this gray box, but the first we ever played was Abe's Oddysee. It was this game that I played in these dark times, and when I played I knew that some day there would be peace. It also has a great sequel!

  [b]You might like if:[/b] You want to relive your Oddworld days, but lack the PlayStation version. It's a shaky port though, so new players would probably be better off checking out Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty instead (the modern remake), as It likely won't be the same without the nostalgia. Great game. Naff port. For the masochistic among us who spent our childhood watching Abe repeatedly get shot/eaten/crushed/fall hilariously down a massive ravine; and yet somehow still save all 99 Mudokons and want to relive that brutality again... 3 things to beware of that haven't translated well from the PlayStation version to PC: [list] [*]Overall game speed is faster (maybe 20%?)... And, as any veteran will tell you, the last thing meat saws need is more oomph... [*]Controller mapping is shaky - We've lost the L2/R2 buttons where it doesn't recognise the triggers on most controllers. It's also a sod to configure as well, unless you know which is button 1, 2, 3, 4... Not unworkable, but fiddly and takes some getting used to. [*]The game stretches to full screen... which [i]really[/i] doesn't flatter it. I'd personally prefer the option to let it retain its native resolution and run with the black sidebars (akin to the screenshots on the store page). [/list] It's a shame the port doesn't do it justice, as the game is an utterly stellar stealth-and-rescue platformer. You're stuck as a slave at the bottom of the food chain and have to escape the clutches of the Magog Cartel before you become their latest ready-meal. Outgunned, you purely have to use your wits to escape. But it gets better... You also have to save your friends too. And so ensues a frustrating Lemmings-like rescue where you have to ensure that [i]they[/i] don't get shot too... or aimlessly walk into a landmine. You think Dark Souls is brutal? Kid... you ain't seen nothing yet... But you get the beautiful taste of retaliation too. Play with grenades, use your enemy's own traps against them... or better still, possess them and have them wreak the carnage for you. Play it well and you might even be able to gain enough powers to blast them to ashes... It's a wonderfully challenging platformer: Requiring as much precision and fast reflexes as it does puzzle solving. It's all about looking at the level you are in and how best to use it to your advantage. It does have a few flaws though (thankfully fixed in its successor, Abe's Exoddus): Whilst you (graciously) have infinite lives and frequent checkpoints, the lack of quick save can make some fiddly areas an absolute ball ache. You also tend to need a strategy guide to find all of the hidden areas, as there aren't any sneaky tell-tale markers you can look out for. It's just a shame the port is so scrappy. It's not unplayable... but it's certainly hard work, and nostalgia can only get you so far.

  Why is it that a 1997 game can be 10x more fun then cod.
