Good! I was worried that the game might not get a much needed sequel. The original Overlord was this close to unbelievable quality.

And now that they have a PS3-specific version of the game under their belt, I would imagine that the PS3 version of these respective games will be easier to make.

I personally really liked this game. It was a blast..but it ended :( Glad to know this underrated game will see another version of it.

dachiefsman -- The controls were a bit wonky and took some getting used to. I think the camera angle on some of the maps is where the controls suffered more than the actual control scheme itself. So I would prefer better camera controls which I'm sure is a daunting task between main character and your controlled minions that you can set in quite a few spots on the board.
