Along with Psychonauts and Beyond Good and Evil, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath is one of the best XBox games you've never played - maybe even never heard of.
This great title was critically acclaimed but failed commercially and it's really a shame. All the Oddworld games were well written and designed and had a sense of humor that really is lacking in a lot of today's titles.
Stranger's Wrath is an FPS with a twist. Jumping back and forth from FPS to third person platformer you're constantly on your toes. Mix in an eccentric ammo system where you have to hunt live critters for use in your firearm and you've got a game that really needs to be experienced to be believed.
Oh - and did I mention that it's currently for sale on Amazon for only $5.99?
Even at it's regular price of $10 it's worth the investment.
