The Franchise: Oddworld | |

The original Abe, released in 1997, was one step back for two steps forward. Lorne Lanning Landing, the main brain behind Oddworld Inhabitants, had worked in the film and commercial business before the games industry, and he was bent on venting all the creativity that has been turned around by the Hollywood machine. Lorne's spoken about the artistic freedom of owning your own game company before, and there's no better example of that than the company's first game. A black comedy with a controller, Abe's Oddysee had you playing the most unlikely of heroes -- a oppressed, clumsy, oafish slave that was about to be the next product in the Glukkon's snack line. He was an unlikely hero, and a fat chance for the savior of a race, but somehow he managed to become both. | ||
