Master Samo writes: "This development studio is responsible for a list of games that are considered, by millions, to be some of the most innovative games of all time. Lorne Lanning, President and co-founder of Oddworld Inhabitants, is a genius; he is one of the most creative minds in the gaming industry. In fact, I would go as far as calling him "Kojima of the West!", and in this article you will find out why."

This is the same developer that emphatically refused to develop Oddworld for the PS2 last gen. Didn't he only make like 1 or 2 games? Nevermind. It's hiphopgamer. Why am I not surprised?

4 - As Expected
It does not really matter whether the article favors Microsoft or Sony. In the end, it will not be read simply because it is from the HipHopGamerShow Website. There is no hope for the N4G readers after all. May you grow up faster than you judge.

God Bless You All

Lorne Lanning needs to return big time as does OI obviously. This time they shouldn't rely on Microsoft because of the s**t they dropped them in last time leaving them last minute to get EA as a publisher for Strangers Wrath with minimal marketing.

While the PS1 Oddworld games were amazing, I don't see how they will bring something new in todays gaming industry, although anything is possible, I don't see this developer or game changing the industry. I do think it would be fun to have a Oddworld titles on the next gen console.

6.1 - PS1 Games Were Awesome
As for offering something new thats something that gaming needs.Whether they do or not is a different story. And as for Lorne Lanning being more talented than Hideo Kojima, that maybe so. Doesn't mean he can make a better game than him. And thats what truly matters.

Disagree if you like, but I thought it was a good read. More like this please hiphopgamer.
