We step into bright midday sunshine. Before us lies a textbook country vista: rolling hills stretch off into the distance, blanketed by lush green grass. Flowers angle their heads towards the sun and a flock of sheep nonchalantly chew upon the grass. Its an idyllic scene. But the peace is about to be shattered. Smirking maliciously, we project our will to the diminutive creatures standing next to us. Their howls of laughter fill the air as a handful of them rush over to the nearest group of ...

Meddlesome minions steal the show in semi-strategic action title

"This is not proper behavior for a lord of darkness." At least, that's what we thought as we lumbered into a wall while blindly flailing at some off-screen hobbit-like "halflings" in an early build of Overlord. The game starts you off with God-like powers, a crazy looking axe, a suit of armor that oozes pure badassedness, and a free ticket to take over the world.

Tuesday 15 August 2006 If you're going to be evil, do it with style. Overlord sees you enter stage left as an evil sorcerer who's just got himself a big castle in a Tolkienesque fantasy land. What's even better news is that your new acquisition has an added perk: an indigenous species of goblin who decide that you're their Overlord. You're not, of course; you're an evil idiot. The actual Overlord is long-dead, probably by your own hand. You're a false messiah, like a TV evangelist, or Kevin ...   » Read Full Overlord preview
