I never played the Stranger's Wrath. Is there a PC version?

There's a PC port since beginnings of 2011, but I think Stranger's Wrath is all glitched up in my PC. I believe I'll be forced to get the PS3 game if I want to play it properly. Ouch, 13€...

I thought there's only Xbox version, but I was apparently wrong.

Edit: Haruka was faster than me hah

Wow thanks! If it works, I'm buying it now!
Haruka, you think it's because of your PC or its the game itself who is all glitched up?

I don't think it is my PC, it is a gaming desktop built by root in 2007, but had to upgrade the graphic card around 2009 because my initial graphic card died (factory defect I believe, I remind having some odd problems in the first year). I also do regular system maintenance to make sure the computer has got a quick performance.

I'm not the only one complaining about freezing glitches from what I've googled.

Anyway, I'm a fan of Oddworld so I intend to buy anyway the PS3 version. Later the PS3 version of Munch's Oddysee will be released in here too.

Okay. Sorry for asking all this questions, but I really want to buy it and I have only a PC^^. Is this a major problem to play or can you just go over it?

I think there are people that don't experience the glitches, but I'm still trying to see if I can fix this.

However, I recommend you to get the Oddboxx: you'll get 4 games by 6€ more than just the Stranger's Wrath game.

Both my laptop and my PC can't even run it.
And that's the same PC that runs Alan Wake, Skyrim, Portal 2 and Darksiders II fine on max settings.

Then I hope that the HD version will be a free DLC on steam.

Wow, you are right! I had no idea they would port the HD version for PC! :D I'm downloading (and it is free!).

I'd have liked it if they'd tried a little harder to capture the artistic style of the original, but it still looks excellent. It also seems that the development cycle will be long enough to make plenty of improvements. I hope Ubisoft is paying attention.

It says it is a Pre-Alpha, which means this doesn't mean it is the final version of the game of course, but I totally loved this bit of video. I hope I can get it at release next Autumn.

I bought Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee HD for PS3 in the release. I had its ammount on the PSN wallet for some months and it was close to Christmas. I like the bonus concept art and the graphical remastering.
