Oddboxx?

It seems the two XBox games have finally been ported to the PC. But have they held up?

I wish I would have bought this on the deal of the day. I missed out on it though. Hopefully it gets repeated near the end of the sale.

That's exciting, I loved Stranger's Wrath. Debating on whether to get this or wait until the PS3 "port" comes out. Maybe I'll just get both.

And apparently they're the worst ports this decade.

According to the Wiki, the PC version will have the PS3 content when the PS3 version is finished.

Instant impulse buy when this was released and was on sale, but I went on a trip right away without testing the games, and tomorrow when I return home I'm afraid I'll be disappointed by these games. The things I've read on the Steam forums don't bode well for the game's stability.

Maybe there are some fan patches out there that help?

The Munch's Odyssey and Stranger's Wrath ports are still pretty new, so I'm guessing not.

Considering Stranger's Wrath was pretty glitchy on the original Xbox I can't see it being much better on PC. Shame really. I really like the game but after being unable to complete the game due to some stupid game breaking glitch half way through. I completed a bounty and the gates should have opened to let me progress out of the town but it didn't. Nothing I did would work, I checked FAQ after FAQ to make sure I didn't miss anything. I hadn't. The game just epic failed on me.

Odyssey and Exodus on PC worked fine for me though. Haven't had any problems with either of those games. I'm running Windows 7 Pro x64.

That's too bad they are glitchy, they are fun, creative games.

Looking forward to PS3 patch for the PC version, it would be cool to play through Stanger's Wrath again with updated graphics using a 360 wired controller on PC as opposed to the PS3 controller.
