The game unfortunately suffered from a number of bugs including a significant fault at the Brewery level that halted many gamers in their tracks. Rather than go back and repeat the adventure (taking steps to avoid the bug) many just opted to wait until the patch was released.
Codemasters just sent out a press release in which the publisher announces its Games Convention 2007 line-up. The Games Convention line-up from Codemasters consisted of playable versions from Turning Point: Fall of Libery, Clive Barkers: Jericho on Xbox 360 and Colin Mcrae: DiRT on Playstation 3.
"We are not porting Overlord to PS3," a Codemasters spokesperson told Eurogamer in response to the rumor sprung from a job posting on developer Triumph Studios' website.
Overlord for Xbox 360 takes the top spot of the Gamefly Top Ten 'Most Queued' list. Mario Striker's Charged is at the top of the Nintendo Wii list, while PlayStation 3 gamers can't wait to get Lair in their mailbox.
The Darkness has a strong start on both PS3 and Xbox 360. List of top selling games for week ending 01st July 2007. Rainbow Six Vegas PS3 makes it to top 10 and the number one is Wii Pokemon.
For those that have been awaiting the release of Overlord, Xbox360Achievements.org has once again dug up 44 achievements that give a slightly better glimpse into Overlord's gameplay.
