It's been a while since a game left me as conflicted as Oddworld: Soulstorm. With feelings ranging from intrigue and fascination to frustration and confusion, making me question my preconceived notions about an entire series and genre, I guess I just have to talk you through this journey to make sense of it myself. Strap in folks, this is going to be a long one.
