Since looking at the screenshots and the name Overlord i have a feeling this game will be some what like Dungeon Keeper 2 which was a quality title in its time for pc must keep my eye on this one.

Some games you can look at a screen and see right away that it will be fun.

Can't wait to see those goblins in action, pissing all over the place!

The beauty and quality of this game makes my eyes a little glassy. It looks like Fable on steroids. I know Fable's not that old, but the nostalgia is definetly here.

Interesting.... why must fantasy styles always be assumed that it's gonna be an RPG though?? lol

Actually I hope the gameplay will be as unique as it looks. To someone who said its reminiscent of Dungeon Keeper, I really hope it will be similar! Their previous title Age of Wonders was a strategy after all wasn't it? And judging from the 1st and 3rd screen shot it appears as though you play the leader of some evil minions, facing battle with the good guys. I'm keeping an eye on this one during E3.

It's an action/adventure where you can control groups of imps and use them to do task/fight or just kill as you wish.

Fable meet oddworld i guess.

mm,you could even say that Z64 was that...
Instead of action-rpg as many call it.
So...

Why is that wrong? It's a normal act. And it's not even a human doing it, it's a mythical creature lol. Is pissing offensive to some people?

There's some info on a dutch xboxsite. Since I'm Dutch and I'm pretty proud something good is finally coming from a Dutch developer (killzone wasn't that good) I'll share the info...

You play a character who's almost dead. When you're finally awake, you find yourself sitting in a tower of an evil undead emperor.
Everybody thinks you are the undead emperor so you'll have to prove that you are much worse than the guy who's in control now.
To fulfill you're queste, a horde of minions are at you're disposal. With these minions you can terrorize the country showing you're the most badass. This all comes with a bit of humour.
