  • Abstract:  With games like Grand Theft Auto, Manhunt, Saints Row and more letting you play as some of the more seedy elements of society, a game like Overlord seems like a sure thing. Set in a robust fantasy universe, Overlord gives you the ability to play as a S...

  • Abstract:  Name: Overlord Genre: Strategy/Action Platform: Xbox 360, PC (Reviewed on Xbox 360)I freaking loved Pikmin. The controls and gameplay blew me away as being an interesting hybrid of the cool features of Real Time Strategies and Action games. This euphor...

  • A joyous mix of childish bad-boy attitude and ‘borrowed' ideas, fashioned into one of the most stupidly entertaining games this year. Overlord may be slight, but it's wickedly enjoyable all the same....

  • Abstract:  Overlord really could work as a children’s title too, unlike the one-day-older The Darkness. It’s cynically light humor with a dark overtone makes it suitable for anyone not faint of heart. While the ESRB rating demands only those 13 years of...

  • Abstract:  According to Peter Parker, with great power comes great responsibility. Pah, what a load of superhero-spouting rubbish. Wed much rather adhere to Overlords philosophy, that with great power comes the chance to destroy homes, kill sheep, woo buxom wen...

  Published: 2007-07-11, Author: Andreas , review by: gameplayer.se

  • Abstract:  Om Fable och Pikmin skulle få ett kärleksbarn skulle det resultera i Overlord. I en parodisk tolkning av det mesta inom fantasy-segmentet, allt från Warcraft till Lord of the Rings, får spelaren axla rollen som den övermäktig...
