    Overlord...I am defo enjoying it!

    The title says it all really, I was a little scared that the humour might slow but the voice-over and prompts are brilliant.

    Then it suddenly occured you could take down the village anyway. The game kept encouraging me, brilliant you don't often get praised for trying to do the naughty things. Especially setting people on fire!

    Ok the camera takes abit of getting used to but I can't see much else wrong yet...

    It's an excellent game, I've enjoyed the later levels just as much as the first one, very well made game IMO.

    I've done the first boss and retreived the crane. Must admit that I am impressed and the humour is great. Killed the guy that wanted you to kill the hobbits on his farm and it said something like is this the start of a murderous rampage.

    Trying to work out how to get the pedestal from the water at the min right near the start of the first level. Havn't had much of a chance to play it at all yet though with work tying up a lot of my time.

    Hmm, sounds interesting, is it like an evil version of Pikmin ? (these 'minion' things).

    Ah for that you need blue minions, which unsurprisingly can swim.

    Yeah it's a lot like Pikmin actually, well, more of a cross between Pikmin and Fable, it's got the adventure aspect of Fable, but most of the combat is done by the minion army you summon to help you.

    I just got to the part last night where I had to rescue the food for the Scree people it then said I could either leave them the food or take it for myself. How do I take it for myself as I couldn't attack the Scree people or the food??

    You have to lock onto them with the left trigger before you can attack them properly.
