Video Game Reviews of Overlord

Customer Review: Glitchlord
Summary: 3 Stars

I think this game has alot of potential,and if it wasn't for all the glitches,I'd give this game a 5.

Three hours into the game,the camera angle becomes stuck to a bird's eye point of view and will not allow me to change it back.I can push the L button and use the thumbstick to move the camera back,but as soon as I let go,the camera swoops back up in the sky making the game awkward and ultimatly unplayable.

The game WILL NOT allow me to give the food back to the peasents.My minions will walk right up to the edge of where they are supposed to set the food and then stop.Thus,I HAVE to choose the evil option otherwise I can't continue on with the game.

Many times my minions become lost or stuck on objects;other times they just seem to disappear for no reason.

There are also other glitches I have read about online,most notably the game crashing bug of the dwarven brewery and teleporting rather than taking the elevator up.Supposedly this results in forever losing the spoke to the wheel and not being able to continue.

There is another glitch with Velvet if you power up your tower at a certain time...

This would be a perfect game if it weren't for all the glitches and bugs.
Shame on the developers for not taking the proper time to test their product before releasing it to the masses.

As much as I would like to play through this game and see the ending,the countless mistakes in this game prevent me from doing so...

All hail the Glitchlord.

Description of Overlord

Overlord is an Xbox 360 exclusive that takes role-playing and action conventions and flips them on their head. You're exploring the legendary Overlord's Dark Tower when you discover you've inherited the legacy of the evil, long-dead Overlord. As you emerge near-death, you decide to rise as the new Overlord -- and you'll have to decide how evil you're willing to get. Played out with plenty of black humour and dark irony, the game will immerse players in twisted parodies of classic fantasy scenarios and characters.
