How does that relate to Chahi or Another World? Not saying it doesn't, I just don't see the connection.

Oh I'm sure someone who works on ONM just strolled in here, dropped that huge hint, and winked for no reason whatsoever...Twighlight Rockstar said:ONMUK: Are there any people in the videogames industry you'd like to work with?
SUDA51: If I had the opportunity I would work with Eric Chahi.
ONMUK: What's your favourite and most inspirational videogame?
SUDA51: Another World.

Thought I might add those choice quotes

Oh yeah I saw that, that's definitely awesome. I just meant in terms of his Revolution comments, he was already known to have been working on a Rev title.

So, is it legal to download an Amiga emulator to play it? Or is that even possible? The only version I played was SNES.

Didn't know that the game had so many fans. I loved the hell out of 'Out of this World' and 'Heart of the Alien'. The sequle had me stumped in some parts, and I remember the ending left me wanting more. I think I may fire up my one of my SegaCDs and play both of these later this week (the SegaCD has both game on it, if I remember correctly).
FLashback was another awesome game by Delpbine, but they screwed up the sequel, 'Fade to Black' royally.
BlimBlim...why did you come in here and drop a bomb like this. You've got my nostalgic blood boiling!! Can't wait for the upcoming announcement.

God I loved this game. It just swept me away in it's atmosphere. Not many games can accomplish that these days. So unique and magical.
I would kill for a remake or sequel.

Another World on Amiga. Good times. That and Warhead were, and still are, two of my favorite games ever made. Can't wait to see what this news is about.

I played the GBA fan-made port and, it was hard, but I got through the game. Too bad its kinda short, but must've been huge for its time.

A better experience than game (too much trial and error, IMO)...still one of my favorites from a long time back. The gun battles rocked hard!

From what I've played(and I've played nearly them all), the PC version is the best. I believe it has a few extra areas over the original Amiga release, and it has better graphics(smoother animation, better framerate and slightly higher res) than the console ports.
Dunno about the 3DO port, though...

Awesome! I was a huge fan of this game and Flashback. I still have the original CD version of Fade to Black, Flashback's sequel.

This game was a huge influence on Fumito Ueda, too. ICO played a lot like Another World/Flashback/Prince of Persia 1+2/Oddworld, but in 3D. There's even that colossus in SotC that's obviously a riff on the black lions from Another World.

I used to record the game's cutscenes onto VHS. A truly inspirational game. I'm going to bust this shit out.

Awesome, so would distributing Out of this World PC be okay today? Isn't it what you call abandonware? I so want to play it right now.

I'll say the 3DO version. It plays in hi-resolution, compared to the PC 320x200. They redid ALL the backgrounds, and many of the sprites, making them textured, instead of flat shaded. The first couple screens, when you're dodging the monster and those damn worm-things look great. There's hidden mini games that are included in the 3DO version that weren't included in the PC version, or Sega CD version (to my knowledge. I have the Sega CD version, but never tried the code on it...). The game was a bit more responsive (to me, at least) on the Sega CD version than it was on the 3DO version. Then again, I've always disliked the 3DO controller, so I'm sorta biased.
Edit: Aha! Pics for comparison...

I was watching my friend play ico a few months back, and it was the first time i had seen the game in action (i've never played it before)... my first reaction was "damn this reminds me of out of this world".. It's similair in atmosphere and puzzle design. I guess i need to buy ico (although i'm usually disapointed with super short games).
