This game looks great. It screams "Populous" to me and that's not a coincidence as the creator said it's the spiritual heir to the series. You play God and have the power to mould and manipulate everything, Water, land, lava and even vegitation. The game has natural disasters etc to. I'm in a rush right now but I'll likely post more info later. With Populous: The Beginning being one of my favourite games ever, this look amazing to me and I'm genuinely excited. It's out in Spring 2011 for The 360 and PS3 through XBLA and PSN. |
looks like a totally revamped 'Black & White' to me. Now you've got natural disasters to throw at worshipers, rather than have your pet stampede through a village while eating everyone.

A video of the game in action: <object width="853" height="505"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/CfKQCAxizrA?fs=1&hl=en_GB"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/CfKQCAxizrA?fs=1&hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="853" height="505"></embed></object> So, it's officially called "From Dust". Can someone with the power, change the threads title to the games name, please? Really can't wait after seeing the video. It's like the God game I've always wanted. |
You can change the title yourself. In the video game sub forum, double click beside the thread title and it will let you rename your thread title.
This does look like Black & White, by the way. |
I've been trying to change thread titles for months by double clicking and it never worked, until now.

Well you must be dumb or something, I don't know.
Anyhow, they need to make a new good simcity, not this. I know this isn't maxis, but that is my take. |
It's been 7 months. Time for an update.
Firstly, the game was due out this month but has been moved back to Summer this year. Also, a few questions asked by fans on Facebook answered. Quote:
SPOILER: show Couple new screens: SPOILER: show |
For those interested, someone over at GameFAQs says the release date is 29th of September. I can't find it anywhere official, though.

Embedding wont work, for some reason.
|
So this game is out tomorrow. Anyone but me picking it up?
The game looks good and it got a 9/10 from Edge but GT gave it 7.8 but maybe that's because it's not a AAA title or an FPS as some people in the GT comments suggested being the reason for the score. The game is being compared to Populous and Pikmin with people saying you'll love the game if you like either of those games. |

Ubisoft are very pleased with the sales by announcing the game has broken previous sales records of Ubisoft published games on Xbox Live.
They didn't reveal the actual sales numbers but said current sales are about 45% more than the previous best selling game on the service. http://gamrfeed.vgchartz.com/story/8...-sales-record/ |
PC version ended up being a huge mess compared to the Xbox Live Arcade version and already being considered a bust in sales. The game was bad enough that Ubisoft is offering refunds to anyone who bought the PC version.
A lot of the bugs and issues are coming from how Ubisoft had the game done as a straight port from XBLA instead of optimizing it to run on PCs. Quote:

And yet you need a ridiculously high end PC to get those 30 fps, most places recommending an i7 for a damn 360 port.
Was quite looking forward to this, but seeing as my PC would crap out (even though it destroys Crysis 2), have to put up with jaggies, DRN AND can't run this in 16:10 is enough to make me not buy it until it's below £5 in a sale. It's like Ubisoft don't want my money. |
gunna get this eventually
i have 8000 msp. might as well use them |
