The PlayStation Store is often littered by horrible themes that are also massively overpriced, but at times users do get a nice treat.
Starting today, Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty is free at Epic Games Store. The free game offer runs until December 19 at 11 AM Eastern. Once you claim it, it’s yours to keep.
"If you're a 2D puzzle adventure aficionado who doesn't already own Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty on one of the half dozen consoles that it's currently available for then it'll make for a worthy purchase but those who do have it will find little reason to get it again on Switch." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
WTMG's Heidi Hawes: "All Oddworld: New ‘N’ Tasty! managed to do was frustrate me. However, it did make me appreciate the controls in Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee more. Honestly, if you’re new to the franchise, it might even be better to just skip ahead to Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath. At least those gameplay mechanics feel like something more from this era. That being said, if you’re a die hard fan of Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee or perhaps just a glutton for punishment, then perhaps try your luck with Oddworld: New ‘N’ Tasty!."
Well, no it is not. It's a mediocre remake of a classic. The original PS1 game is a 10/10 masterpiece. As a raging nerd on this series, the game is okay at best. I'd give it a 7.5/10 personally.
Just downloaded. Can confirm that it's awesome.
This is what i'd expect from a next-gen dynamic theme.And FREE....
This reminds me of how the first well designed dynamic was on PS3,i believe it was the Africa theme.That made me buy quite a few themes.
I want the free tales theme but you gotta pre-order. I gotta say I like the themes on ps4 much better then ps3, even through you can get anything you want from fan made on internet.
Just downloaded it. They were actually thinking when they designed this. More themes need to follow this direction. Should be child's play, compared to a whole game.
It's Oddworld, so its gotta be good
