Oddworld - Strangers Wrath

What a gem of a game !!!
Normally I'm into RS3 / Halo 2 / Pro Evo4, but I had been drawn to this game and had some vouchers burning a hole. What a surprise, it is absolute carnage and some of the most beautiful graphics yet seen on the box.
Top marks.

Yes i've got this game and now finished it, it's an awesome game from start to finish. The live ammo is class and pretty funny, did that last level remind you of halo 1? it has a good twist in the middle which see's the game switch in a new direction. and as the guy above stated it doe's indeed have some of the most beautiful graphics yet seen on the box.

Top game come on the rest of you give it a try you won't regret it.

Funny you should say that, but I found the game similar in a few ways to Halo 1. The controls are just 'right'. Also the explosions etc are awesome.
I think alot are put off by the live ammo feature, but they shouldn't be.
It's a shame the game doesn't have online features.
I know Conker will have, but that's going up against some real big boys in Brothers in Arms, the new Rainbow Six etc.
Oddworld filled a void perfectly.
