    absolute horrible port. The graphics may seem kinda ok'ish considering the age of this game. Also the creative weapons are a pretty cool thing.
    But the controls are horrible!
    Inverted axis, aiming will be impossible and oversensitive mouse-controls making it unplayable. As a huge Oddworld-fan I really wanted to try it. I tried to cope with the painfull control-theme, but I couldn't.    absolute horrible port. The graphics may seem kinda ok'ish considering the age of this game.

    I tried to cope with the painfull control-theme, but I couldn't.
    It feels clunky, unpolished and so out of place.
    Playing it with a controller will make your aiming too slow.
    Playing it with Keyboard and mouse will make the camera hyperoversensitive and forget the aiming.

    What a pitty.    … Expand

    The lackluster porting job doesn't ruin this beloved game outright, just cripples it. [April 2011, p.73]

    Somehow the world still works superbly, and the result is a big, compelling and unique adventure. [Mar 2011, p.85]
