Writer Liam Dean goes on a nostalgic journey through Oddworld in anticipation of the Abe's Oddysee remake. "In an age where a wealth of 2D platforming games exist through the indie gaming scene and the continuation of beloved franchises like Rayman: Origins and New Super Mario Bros U, convincing people to try titles that they missed in the PS1 era can be a hard sell. Regardless, I would urge each and every person reading this who has not done so already to go and pick up Abe’s Oddysee and the equally brilliant Abe’s Exoddus. I would wager that they contain charm, character and tough gameplay design that is at least equal to, if not surpassing what modern day releases can offer."
Sean @ FG: From inception to their first release, explore the history of Oddworld in the words of those that made it.
PC gamers shouldn't miss out on these awesome freebies on Steam right now. If you grab them in time, they will be yours to keep and play at your leisure.
Abe's Oddysee is a must-play for anyone who didn't play it back in the day, one of the best platformers IMO.
