Behind The Classics – Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee

PlayStation Blog: This week’s installment in our ongoing Behind The Classics series takes us to the weird and wonderful land of Oddworld. It might not have sold 20 million copies, but few games released in the PlayStation era have such a loyal following as Abe’s Oddysee and its sequels. And with good reason – Lorne Lanning’s beautiful side-scrolling fantasy adventure is one of the richest, most singular game worlds ever created and its hero, Abe, one of gaming’s most eccentric protagonists. With an HD remake currently in development, we caught up with the game’s creator to find out how the 1997 original came into being. Sit back and enjoy – and if you’re new to the title remember that it’s available to download on PSN.
