Charm, it's a difficult concept, what can be hilarious, entertaining and absorbing to one person, can be irritating and off-putting to others. Overlord 2 is a game that desperately wants to be charming, the only problem is that it relies so heavily on it's style and humour that it has the potential to alienate certain people before they even get far into the game.

Damnation by Michael Slevin | 03-07-09

As we've seen before, taking the best bits of top titles and melding them together does not necessarily make a brilliant game. Wheelman managed it, blending elements of Grand Theft Auto and Burnout to fine effect, making for a fast and fun actioner. Damnation gives it a go with highlights from fellow third-person shooters, and while not terrible, it does fall way short of the bullseye.

Interview: Codemasters Talk FUEL by Dave Cook | 12-05-09

Codemasters are the masters of the racing game genre, having created a string of consistent and critically acclaimed titles that perfectly capture the speed and intensity of professional racing. From Colin McRae to TOCA Race Driver and GRID, each title has taken realistic racing simulation, removed the dull parts and added a welcome jolt of adrenaline. However, the next title in the Codemasters racing series is by far the most abstract and more interestingly, is not being developed in-house.

Tyranny is great, isn't it? Some pillaging here, execution there and all in time for a tankard of mead and giant turkey leg in your twisted castle. Overlord deserves your hard-earned cash with its unique style of gameplay which combinies hard-hitting weaponry and magic. If this wasn't enough, you have an army of loyal, loony minions at your disposal, complete with an added jolt of cackling mayhem.
