Here is the score prediction topic.

Lower than I expected. :?

So, the reviewer struggled with the camera(I had no issues with it...) and felt he couldn't be as evil as he wanted.

Edit:he didn't even mention multiplayer and co-op(survival co-op)... If had tried those, he might have given it a 7.0.

Is this a confirmed flop???

Man I d/l this demo, and I have to agree with this rating, it was pretty bad

My spider senses were tingling on this one telling me flop before the review was up.

I liked the demo, Im getting this game.... :shock:Magical_Zebra

Demo was indeed fun, this review is depressing.

ok who the hell hyped overlord? not saying people didnt im asking why did they. the demo was crap, after playing that any idiot could seen this was a bad gameApocalypseXIVV

I for one hyped it AA. The demo was fun as hell. As far as camera controls? Controlling the camera was a matter of just moving the damn right stick. :shock:

Damn, I thought it'd get a 7.2

Hmmm, even that was overhyping it. Lol FLOP

Anyway, I predicted flop when I saw the video. Looked average...

It was never hyped until we played the demo. Both the Darkness and Overlord have gotten mixed reviews.

ok the two big issues he had with the game I dint have a hugeproblem with,

the camera i had one problem when i was trying to run away and turn around the camera dint reset but other than that i had no near the amount of trouble the reviewer had

About the not delivering on the evil thing, wasn't it supposed to be a form of irony? or did i get the wrong impression its supposed be like you help all the people all the while you are making them your slaves? Plus you can be pretty evil like killing a lot of innocents.

And did he not find anything at all the least bit funny? the roasting the halflings to death? COME ON that was evil and funny at the same time!

I guess this itis a flop but come on this game deserves a lot of credit for being unique at least 1.0 more than the score.

Yeah, There really no debate on this one. They tried to make an evil pikmin game and failed. Maybe it will sell enough to get a sequel, and if so, i hope that one does much better.

I was really interested in this game, and I will probably still get it. I am surprised by the difference in the score from other sites. Sigh, if only we could use other sites it would have gotten AA. But alas, we do not. Maybe, by some strange event, the 360 will score higher.7even

It will most likely score .1-.5 more depending controls. Even that with the new score it might stay 6.5 or 7.0 I thought the demo was so-so. I'll rent it to see if it's good.

floppidy flop. But it won't be known because it's an X360 game. Only PS3 flops are abusedTimesplitter14

Of course. But if it would have met expectations it would have been "oh, teh GS bias!" for a week.

Um...didnt you have to hold down a button and use the right stick to move the camera?

Ouch, expected it to be in the mid 70s like maybe 7.3 at least?

That really hurts my chance of picking one up. Maybe Call of Juarez or hell maybe The Darkness....
