Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee and Exoddus hopping to PSN this Thursday
It's been a while since we were legitimately excited by an addition to the PSOne Classics storefront -- however, now we're waiting on bated breath for the PSN re-release of two timeless titles: Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee and Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus. The pair of PlayStation platformers will say "hey-lo" to the PlayStation Store this Thursday, where they'll be sold for $9.99 a piece.
We know we should be counting our blessings, but we're hoping the addition of these impossibly Odd titles is just a precursor to more PS1 platformers getting ported to the PSN. In simpler, less alliterative terms, we're gonna need someone to bring Heart of Darkness into the family of PSOne Classics. We're gonna need someone to do that immediately.

Don't get Mad; Get Elum

I always missed Elum in the second game.
Sometimes, at night, I think of him fondly.

@ Neville Thegame
I totally agree with you that the $9.99 price tag is too much... Everytime I get excitied about a PSN release the price chases me away - PSP Minis anyone?
Reuben @ Oct 20th 2009 3:37PM
I'd agree with you, but these two games have been $9.99 everywhere that they've been digitally released, including both Steam and Good Old Games.
It is what it is.

But stuff on Steam and other digital distribution sites goes on sale. I bought both these games off of Steam in March for $3.75 together.
dmd @ Oct 20th 2009 2:59PM
I'll get both! =D

hope it gets to europ store

Awesome. I never got the chance to play these back when I had a PSX.
I'm also looking forward to later entries in the series, like Stranger's Wraith, coming to XBLA/PSN - especially the latter, as I have no interest in buying an XBOX, at this point, and I hear a 360 can't even run it.

This would be awesome if I didn't still have them on PS1. :V
Rad games though, I wish a new Oddworld game would be made. I haven't even heard anything new about that movie Oddworld Inhabitants was supposedly making.

This is why digital distribution sucks - $10 for old PS1 games?
bass1x @ Oct 21st 2009 2:47AM
that old ps1 game is new to a lot of people who missed out when it was first released and i dont mind paying 10$ for a game 10$ seems farr as i can take it anywhere now or hook it up to my tv and play it like real playstation.
Dale Thornton @ Oct 22nd 2009 9:55AM
heart of darkness is awesome. such a good game, but i only thought they made 1 copy as ive never knew anyone else that played it
Ark @ Oct 22nd 2009 8:02PM
Well today's Thursday the 22nd, and... um... I dont see it on PSN. Did the internets get the release date wrong, or was this maybe a very cruel joke? Am I just not seeing it?
Sony, Why must you make this a house of lies?
*sigh
Ark @ Oct 22nd 2009 8:28PM
