Oddboxx to release from more online retailers, with fan-requested features

Since December 20th of last year, the Oddboxx has been available exclusively through the Steam network, featuring the first four critically-acclaimed games from Oddworld Inhabitants; Abe’s Oddysee and Abe’s Exoddus, Munch’s Oddysee and Stranger’s Wrath.

On the week of March 7th 2011, this budget-priced compilation of award-winning classics will finally launch on IGN D2D, Stardock, Amazon, GamersGate and other services to be announced.

Oh please oh please oh please oh please!
It would be a beautiful addition to the playpack! Straight purchase would be great too.

This would be awesome but if it comes to Onlive I wouldn't be surprised if it was in the marketplace rather than the playpack. From the article it sounds like they are still trying to make some money off it so if it did come to Onlive it would probably only go to playpack after enough people bought it first. Would be great if they released it to the service and put it in both the playpack and marketplace from the start though.

Well, publishers still make money from the PlayPack games...

I'd prefer for these games to be non-PlayPack. I want to "own" them. :grin:

I agree. I would love to "own" these games. The publishers still get some money, but I want them. Hopefully they will come to OnLive. I miss playing Oddworld.

I would be so torn. I own Oddworld AO and Ex on both PSX, PSN, and Steam. Lol. I also own Stranger and Munch.

They are ALSO, doing HD remakes of AO, EX, and Stranger. I planned on buying those.... ARGH!!!!!

I'm telling you. Oddworld Inhabitants are one of the greatest studios to come along in forever. Their games are so imaginative and off the wall. I can't wait for the movie.

Sadly, the official status of the Oddboxx coming to OnLive is, "Not at this time."

Well, at least it's not a "Never". :)

If it DOESN'T come out when it releases, I'm sorry but OnLive will surely lose my money. The Oddbox is a day one purchase for me. I will get it from wherever I can.
