Another World 15th Anniversary Edition on GoG

[asper]

Another World had already been re-made by Eric Chahi (Windows compatible, slick high resolution)

Now it is available on GoG as well. It is the high-res version, plus some goodies: making-of video, soundtrack, wallpapers, manual.

Now, go buy it and enjoy an innovative (cinematic storytelling, no user interface on screen, context-related actions) classic...!

Man, I played the original up to some point where I got stuck.

I should give it another try. I just recently completed Heart Of Darkness again, another platformer headed by the same guy.

 

[Gragt]

Heart of Darkness was a bit meh.

Anyway GOG is a scam because they sell content that is FREELY available on torrent sites!

 

[spekkio]

FUCK TGIS POPMOLE SHIT!

The important thing is: where did they torrent it from and what crack did they use (scene-cred is seriouz biz). Fuckers!

Should I call Droog here or will you guys do this?

 

[Zed]

Cracked and ready, I hope.

Eric Chahi had nothing to do with 'Heart of Darkness'. Some company just bought the 'franchise' from him. That's probably why it sucks compared to AW.

Original Concept, Lead Design, Programming etc.

Seems like he had a lot to do with it.

Also, you suck.

Good, I always buy my cracks at GOG. They never let me down.

you're thinking of Heart of the Alien, Interplay's sequel rape for the megacd.

 

[asper]

Ah, 'Heart of the Alien', I stand corrected

 

[Sceptic]

The "real" sequels to Another World were FLashback and Fade To Black, both awesome games.

 

[asper]

Yeah, a lot of people used to say that even back in the day, but it's a myth.

Flashback was and still appears to be mistaken as a sequel to Eric Chahi's videogame Another World. Although both games do share similarities, the storylines are completely different, and there is no major connection between two characters in Flashback.

Fade to Black is a sequel to Flashback, but Flashback is not a sequel to AW. Completely different world and different characters.

Flashback is more of a spiritual sequel. Blackthorne (a flashback clone by blizzard) was also pretty fun.

 

[Sceptic]

That's why I said "real" instead of real. But yeah technically asper is right. I think we can all agree that Heart of the Alien was shit.

 

[Gragt]

I would have rather put the quotes around "sequels" than "real" then but that's just me.

Fixed. Shows just how much I like you

 

[DraQ]

I have already bought the refreshed version some time ago, so .

 

[Tails]

At least in case of Another World the original dev gets the money, not some shitty publisher/Activision.

 

[ghostdog]

^ Yeah, so you should buy it from his site because that way he'll get a bigger sum of the money.

 

[Gragt]

I just found this. Haven't tried it yet but from the images it looks pretty similar to AW.

 

[Zeus]

I just found this. Haven't had time to watch it yet, but it seems similar to Heart of the Alien.

Wow, it has some really hardcore fans who hate what new writes and producers did to their beloved series.

We should invite 'em to the Codex. :wink:

Oh yeah, OnEscapee. Very good game. It's something between another world and flashback. I really liked its style. I think that there's not a single word written or spoken in the game and yet it tells an interesting story with good platforming action and puzzles. You can find review+dowload in abandonia raloaded.

Damn, now I really want to buy Another World after trying the demo. Talking about a nostalgia trip!

Except their payment-site doesn't work. Great.
