Just a curious question: could an Oddworld remake signify a brand new Oddworld game for PS4/PC/WiiU? That would be especially good, and another great reason to check out the HD remake.

Microsoft in pro capatilist, dont give a crap wbout the little guy shocker. Are they going to make any moves that make sense this gen apart from the hardware specs? Thank God for Sony and Nintendo.

I was never an Oddworld fan, but I would understand why the indie developers gravitate toward the PS4. Why go through the unnecessary hoops? It's simply easier and "friendlier" to develop on sonys console. It's a shame One owners won't be given the rare gems you can find within indie games.

Oddworld should come back to the good old days, PC and PS only :)

I've learned theses past couple of years how important indie developers are, they make games that give different experiences then the average fps we see quite a lot.

This is getting kind of old now, people. This possibly the fourth time so far this subject has been repeated.

god these games pissed me off. love the atmosphere, love the artistic style, just hated the "tile based" movement, especially when trying to run and jump over things.

Zionists love money and to control everything

Daaayuuuuuum. Xbox fans are missing out on a classic game remade in HD son! That sucks for them, lmao.

Wow.

How many negatives are there about the xbone and MS now? It just seems like one thing after another that MS seem to screw up because of their greed and short shortsightedness.

I wouldn't be surprised if next gen there is no 'console war', or at least it will be more like a 'console skirmish' because all the fanboys have flocked to the PS4.

Oddworld is awesome. I remember playing it on PS1.

The sad part is this is a game with an already established loyal fanbase. There is plenty of money to be made off this, but to restrict it right out the gate? Ouch MS.

Add this to the laundry list of WRONGS they've done lately.

You are supposed to put happiness in a box and sale it. That is the principle to a good product. You do not put a head ache in a box and expect people to throw their money at you and be grateful.

I am an xbox fan, gone through 3 360's, Even a Mod and content provider for a website that promotes xbox, Even the majority of our members are turning on the Xbox One and laughing at it. MS has made many converts the the new systems are not even out yet. never touched a PS3 other than a buddies. But the Xbox One has made me a convert to the PS4... I will still be gaming PC mostly but want a new console as well. Just let me buy the system and do what I like with it. Do not tell me to check in with you every day like a clingy wife or master. If I do not check in with you online every day you are going to shut down my gaming system I paid for and make it a paper weight until I come back so master can allow me another 24hrs of gaming. Sure, I have Internet, that is not the point, I do not need your permission to play my game every day. Well I guess I do, that is why I will not be purchasing Xbox One.

Microsoft does not require your approval, Only your obedience.

Is like MS digging they own grave

It is strange. I remember when Oddworld was synonymous with the Xbox brand for a while anyway. Microsoft pushed the series a lot on the original Xbox one.

FEZ would a nice game to play in PlayStation 3+4, it seems fun to play from youtube videos.

all of these devs that skipped wii u with there game with no explination, ita about time one skipped microsoft console instead.
not 1care shall be given.

Good to read that WiiU is getting love from the Indies.

(and in this case, the Indie game maker is a Legend).

Been there played that have moved on.

MSFT even said at E3 they support developers and indie developers. But they left out you need to have a publisher and not be self funded. More free games for Plus subscribers with the more indi games on PS4. Octodad looks like a fun play.

This is so very strange of MS. It makes no sense whatsoever!

The fact that they have remained quiet is also baffling. There is no good reason at all that an indie developer who has self funded their game and can even release on PC couldn't release on the X1.

Very terrible MS.

well remember when everyone said wii u was the sega dream cast? looks like X BOX ONE IS THE NEW DREAMCAST!!! the next gen wars will be between the wii u and the ps4. I think nintendo can win it. but like the old saying goes, two's company, three's a crowd!! so long microsoft, you'll have some good friendws though, like the 3do, the jaguar, the dreamcast, the saturn, I'm sure while nintendo and sony battle it out for the future, you boys can talk about the good old days!!!

Why is this news? MS has had this requirement through the entire 360 generation...

I guess a bunch of gamers just woke up yesterday and realized this...

How the mighty have fallen.

Now I know the world is coming to an end. An Oddworld game is coming to every platform except Microsoft's. Lorne Lanning, funny how things come full circle, aye?

Maybe MS should jump straight to the Xbox Two ;o)

would everyone just stop with the xbox bashing its getting old. the ps4 third partie devs also have the right to decide if you can trade in or lend your games. time will tell.

plus oddworld games suck. always have. could care less if they never made another one.

Why does MS have this stupid-arse policy?

yet MS still have MORE indie games an arcade games in the market place than the PS3...so i dont think its gonna be an issue...

just another reason to get a ps4

Ms is the disease of the gaming world...
