brilliant game and written by some creative people. the standout character game of last year. i dont know how well it sold in the end, but i hope it was well enough to reward those responsible. first game i bought for the 360 too.

This game was pretty fun but i've long since sold my copy. Maybe if the DLC wasn't so damn late I would have kept it.

I had fun with the demo, but couldn't get into the full game. Odd.

Love the game, downloading now.

I just wish they'd realize that the multiplayer is the weak link in the game and just give up on it. Focus on the bits that matter.

well i was trying to get through this game for the first time, but I got the ever so lovely red rings of death. The retard customer service is sending a prepaid box to my university post office, but they said they didn't need my box number. This is going to be a fun game tracking my damn box this week.

Overlord was one of my fave 360 games of last year despite the healthy competition. I probably would download the content even though I have enough stuff to play right now but my 360 got ROD this week and is off to repairs. I guess I'll see if I'm still in the mood when it comes back.
Meanwhile it's Assassin's Creed on PS3 for me - encountered a gamestopping bug on my 2nd play night. :-(

I enjoyed the demo way back when, but not enough to pay full retail. As soon as it gets cheap enough, I'll definitely give it a shot.

Fun game. I should go back and finish it at some point.

I never got tired of the little guys picking up stuff, hobbling back to me and saying, "For the mastarrrr!"

But man, the in-game cutscenes are so bad. So bad.

Mini-Boss — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 09:14:42 MST

I really enjoyed this game back in the day, but I honestly don't think i'm going to spend that much money on DLC for a game I beat twice and haven't played in months. If this came out in November, it may have been a different story, but now, 3 months late? No.

Jimmers — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 09:12:17 MST

The game was... serviceable. I really enjoyed the minions and the story was kind of fun, but some of the design choices were a little crazy. Twice I ran into game ending bugs in the 360 version (the critical mission stuff wouldn't load), and you have to grind a little for the currency to make new minions. Still a neat little game, I hope that they make a sequel and fix some of the issues.

PlaidNinja — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 09:12:01 MST

I was thinking of picking this up too (probably used, I'm a cheap bastard) even before I knew there was new content being released. The only problem with this game is I doubt it can come close to being as evil as I'd hope it could.

Candlejack — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 09:06:00 MST

I loved this game on the 360. Cba to get it for the PC tho as I already know the storyline and it would be incredibly tedious.

Also I bet the PC version doesn't get this addon.

Well anyway, Mass Effect can't come soon enough for my rig I tell ya.

@unicronband:

once you get used to the controls its not bad.

i had fun and i need to play it again to get some more achievements but boss battles are hard to me because of the control mechanics.

I played the demo of this. Didn't like some of the voices, but it was pretty damn fun.

I guess I'll go pick it up cheap!

cableshaft — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 09:01:51 MST

I was slightly disappointed with the game, but only slightly. For the most part it was entertaining just having your minions destroy everything, but I think if they had increased the level of interactivity the minions had with the environment (scrambling up walls, leaping off the tops of buildings, throwing objects at enemies, etc.), then there would be even more mayhem and it would be a lot more entertaining.

@unicronband: I absolute adhore this game. I went so far as to buy a 360 controller to use with the PC version. I essentially paid around $100 for this game because of that and feel it was worth every penny.

I would say that this game was ok. Its a good think I keep every copy to every game that I have bought for the 360!

Of course this would come out while I lent my copy to a coworker.
