As Spore wasn't enough,i came across a title from Codemasters called Overlord.I'm currently downloading the demo and the game sounds so cool!

You get to be an ebil overlord and you control minions,who do stuff like arrass peasants,gather items and even use environment items as weapons and armor!
It's pretty much like Pikmin,you have to gather items to reconstruct your evil tower.I'll be sure to get this when it comes out!

Well I do think the first one was better than the second, but the second wasn't that bad either.

Eh.Black and White was realy fun a few years ago!Controlling your minions with your mouse and see them gather items to equip themselfs such as pumpkins is the new stuff.
I loved the demo!Altought,it has a terrible engine just like Gothic 3.It still ran slow on Medium graphics,while i can max out Far Cry,Fable:The Lost Chapters (Which has better graphics than this,in my opinion,if Overlord isn't completely maxed out),Battlefield 2 (Maxed out graphics + play on 64 player servers=Suicide for some computers.I just have AA turned on 2x,tought.Rest is maxed out).

It ran much better when i turned off shadows tought.

Heck yes,it's VERY FUN.I mean it.It's the type of game you get addicted at the tutorial.I realy think that 1GB of demo size is worth it 200%.

Seriously,i just burnt down a wheat field WITH HALFLINGS IN IT!The little pests started running around,burning and colliding with stuff and put that stuff on fire!

Go beeing evil.Holy hell,i must have this game!I can't wait to burn down entire cities!

The engine sucks tought.It has slightly better graphics than Fable and while one can max out Fable easily,i had to run it without shadows,with Textures on high,models on medium and view distance on low.

Do try the demo out.You won't regret it!Because using your mouse to control your minions to kill peasants rocks!Besides,you can use the little smucks to do tasks and watch them suffer such as move heavy objects.You also change appearence as you get more evil.The bad part about this game is the engine,as i pointed out .
