    and saying that the fact that the minions are dump is just wrong. if they were smart the overlord wouldn't be needed :-)

    If you liked one you love like 2 , ok not so much. Camera angel still suck sometimes, different story and the minions can wear more but other then that. It really is nothing new I wanted more and got alittle more.

    thats wierd how can you have a good action game if it is rated PG

  • ejay_kain

    Posted Jul 6, 2009 12:22 am PT

    to bad it is rated T for teen, if it was mature i bet there would be more potential to it.

    It at least has to be worth the £12.95 Amazon are charging for it at the moment.

  • zeusbark

    I might give this game a try on the pc, hopefully the control and camera issues are improved in this version.

    Nice review. Haven't played the first Overlord, won't play this one either.

  • Franke_51

    Posted Jun 28, 2009 1:51 pm PT

    one of the big complaints was managing the minions.. well isn't that the point, you are there overlord there supposed to be stupid and not do everything themselves. Gamespot can be a bit to nitpicky sometimes

  • Hayabashi

    Posted Jun 28, 2009 9:13 am PT

    The first was a lot of fun. I can't wait to try to rent this one.

  • macp90s

    Posted Jun 28, 2009 7:28 am PT

    get in on the pc, it's better, graphics are the same or better than ps3, great game still loving it

    The review is spot on, if a little generous.

    Thumbs down at will!

    good review address all the faults and good stuff of the game. i really liked the first one and they seemed to have fixed a lot of the problems that i had so im planning to get this game. and i agree that the minions are supposed to be dumb...

  • eddienom

    Gamespot please fire this reviewer. This is the fourth game or so I have had to listen to this guy murder the English language. Stop outsourcing to Australia and the UK, and let the Gamespot veterans who we are familiar with handle the video reviews.

    iwas about to say that, the minions are supposed to be dumb.. they are minions..

  • DSP666

    Posted Jun 27, 2009 3:31 pm PT

    IMO the minions are supposed to be dumb, that is their purpose...
    Though the camera and targeting system do suck and are really annoying!

    I have to get the minions song for my ringtone XD can anyone help me with this??
    it would be so AWESOME XD

  • Garygok

    Posted Jun 27, 2009 10:21 am PT

    Not sure about this one. I liked the original at first but I kinda tapered off at the end. Think I may rent this one first.

    Wow... With such a monotone voice, you can feel how he enjoyed the game. Anyways, i would love to get my hands on this game, but my economy doesnt allow it at this point. Played the first game, liked it alot, so i expect nothing less out of this one.

    The addition of a map in the game is a welcome treat.The first overlord did not have a map. I recall that Heavens peak extremely complex with many paths to explore.
    Islands in water were always a hazard. I noticed something new in the demo. The brown minions can jump over water on the mounts. Quite handy to get some new stuff and help the weak blue minions. I was hoping they would include new minions. Have to laugh at some of the audio on this. Protect the fluffy ones! For only creatures that are fluffy deserve to be saved.!
