Easily one of the best looking games on the system. Be sure to watch the video in HD for the full effect.

Before anyone tries to say differently, this is not a port or a remake of any previous game. This is a brand new game for the Wii.

It's really impressive. Shadows are very good and all real-time according to the devs. It even seems to have self shadowing. And the environments are really detailed as well. There's quite a bit of pop-up, but considering the hardware there isn't really much to complain about.

You should add this quote from the Associate Producer:

"Overlord Dark Legend looks amazing. When people see this game in motion, they are going to be seriously impressed. It sounds like such a lame cliché to say 'it looks like the 360 version', but that's true. Not exactly, but it's closer than we ever imagined possible on the platform. Of course we've made some changes to get that level of fidelity on the Wii, but the guys at Climax have been very clever with it. In terms of looks, it blows away just about everything else I've seen on Wii." - Associate Producer, Dean Scott

It has a good bit of pop-in, but it still looks good. Hopefully we see more from Triumph Studios soon.

Of course, but it's still nice to see.

Looks great, I'm surprised by how good it looks, and the art style and HUD reminds me of Fable 2. But people like to moan about off screen, and no different for the Wii.

I feel bad for the devs, they are putting lots of effort into a game no one knows about. More over, I read a ridiculous interview where the website kept trying to get the devs to explain why the game had no mini games or multiplayer in the fashion of wii games. He basically was hounding the guy for trying to make a full wii single player experience instead of a multi player gimmick.

If thats true then its quite sad,but not really suprising.The thing is though that these guys could have released some trash mini-game collection which would've taken a couple of months to put together,and probably would've made them a reasonable profit.But the fact that they've built this new game from the ground up specifically for the Wii I really respect.

They're going to need to really advertise this,so that it doesn't get ingnored.

Holy crap, that is better than anything I have seen on Xbox both artistically and technically (Although that isn't really saying much). Surprisingly, I had never heard about this game until now :?

I am finding this hard to believe but Third Party Games on Wii have been getting better and better and better. While we haven't really heard from Nintendo in the past 2-3 months. Maybe it's for the best, third parties deserve a chance.

I was so happy when the dev chewed the hell out of the interviewer, those questions were so stupid. The dev showed me right then and there that they are serious about there game and I will be watching because of that.

That dev sounded pissed off :lol:

Glad to see him stand up for the Wii. This proves that the Wii can do many things we thought impossible if effort is put into it. So all you Dead Space Wii haters, stop it :P

The problem is that the 360 version is a million times more impressive than that

This might have been impressive many years back, but not by todays standards

What 360 version? This is an entirely new game
