    Default Control and Simulation games at they're best!

    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!

    If you like games like that, you surely know about Black And White, right? (if not, I bet you'll LOVE that :3)

    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.
