Overlord PS3 confirmed - exclusive screens

CVG can confirm that the Overlord series, a Pikmin-influenced management adventure previously only on 360 and PC, will be making its debut on PS3 this summer with Overlord: Raising Hell.

Raising Hell will feature the full Overlord game that released on 360 last year, as well as all of the download content that has been released to date, all on one Blu-ray disc.

this is the one 360 title i wanted on ps3.( i just loved it when i played on a friends 360) having a small army of underlings to do your bidding just rocks.

[Dann7978]

Im gonna get it in summer time. Hope its not a port like a rainbow six.

[tony]

missing anything great.

Great news for PS3 owners. This was one of the most fun but sadly underrated titles of the last year. Now all gamers can enjoy this funny and awesome gem.
Hope it sells enough and they make M rated Overlord 2. They need to make it darker and more evil.

[Captain Tuttle]

I've been playing through it lately and have been surprised at how much fun I'm having. It's a good, solid game.

[MK_Red]

Agreed. The only problem I have is that it's not really evil. Sure, characters look evil and do some bad stuff but overall, the Overlord is doing the right thing and kinda helping the land even though he and his minions pillage the villages.

[Captain Tuttle]

But one of the reasons I like it is because it's so tongue in cheek. It's a game that doesn't take itself too seriously and that's refreshing today.

This was one of my favorite titles for 360 and a VERY underated one as well. Good stategy mixed with some action and dark humor and here was a solid title that was totally lost under the rug. Why? I dunno, maybe the Bioshock/Halo hype train was doing the sweeping. I would totally recommend this title, and will picking up a PS3 version as well so I can get all content on one disc. I wanted to buy the download content, but M$ shafted me one too many times with that so sorry...

[InMyOpinion]

I never understood why it got low score(maybe they didn't bribe the reviewers enough?). Awesome game with a very high fun factor.

[aceman7]

It ain't no Oblivion.

[MK_Red]

It's a completely different game. Oblivion is an open-world RPG while this is a tactical action /adventure title.

[Kyur4ThePain]

It ain't trying to be no Oblivion.

[Covenant]

This was a woefully underrated game for the 360...it sold well, but should have sold better. This way, more people get to enjoy and appreciate it...kinda like Okami for the Wii.

Enjoy, PS3 owners.

[Kyur4ThePain]

I am giving you bubbles (not that you need any!) for saying "should have" and not "should of".

[Covenant]

I minored in English in college...so I shuld be gud at making americun wurds and tawk. :)

[Covenant]

Three disagrees...folks, I was making a joke about MY verbosity, not that of Americans as a whole. Didn't you see the smiley face...?

[gEnKiE]

Sweet, I always wanted to try this game :)

[KidMakeshift]

Now PS3 owners can experience this fine sheep killing simulator, lol

[Keowrath]

Is this anything like Dungeon Keeper on the PC?

[Arkham]

Is this similar in concept to Folklore? I've only read a little about it and it sounds familiar. I actually liked the demo for Folklore, but it wasn't a game I wanted to invest the time into. At least not yet.

[KidMakeshift]

It's Fable meets Pikmin

I guess it's a little similar to Folklore in ways. You have to fight through different realms and you use/summon other creatures to attack

[Laexerias]

"BLURTALITY" ...

[heyheyhey]

meh

not my type of game to be honest, but i can see how it would be appealing to some

i like full-blown JRPG's and Oblivion-type RPG's like Diablo, Fallout and that new game Elveon

enjoy anyone who wants this

[heyheyhey]

Lost Planet with all the downloadable content, Overlord with all the DLC

hope Dead Rising is the next to cross over to the PS3- i played it on my mates 360 and it's awesome- i really want to own it

[ISA_Scum]

Played it on my friend's 360 and loved the heck out of it! Awesome to hear it's coming to PS3!!!

[Boink]

did we not just see the company itself say it ain't happening like 2 weeks ago?

[mistertwoturbo]

i dunno, despite the fact there's screenshots it's pretty much fully confirmed.

but you should already know how companies likes to answer things.

"We do not comment on rumor or speculation"

or the great

"We have no plans for another console"

or just flat out

"It's never coming to that system!"

and then a few days later, BAM! "Confirmed"

[ELite_Ghost]

hopefully it'll look better on ps3 than 360, just like oblivion

[SolidSnake93]

Seems like an interesting game. I had never heard of this before.

[princejb134]

now all platforms can enjoy this game, ohh wait wii gets no love again and its out of the competition ones again
dam my wii sure is collecting alot of dust

[Charlie2688]

Its a pretty sweet game I am getting it for my 360 (sorry I have no PS3 yet) in a couple of days

Its pretty sweet deal since the PS3 version will have all the downloadable content (15 bucks of stuff plus the free extra) I wonder how much its gonna be since the 360 version is on 40

[SuperTanker]

I recall seeing this shown over at GameSpot's "On the Spot" weekly show, and I never expected that this title would be coming over to the PS3. I will definitely keep an eye on this. Looks like an interesting game.

[stuntman_mike]

why bother with these old 360 games why not just make some new games on ps3. lost planet was an absolute dud!

[sleepbox]

Good game...not great by any means but really good. PS3 fans, you shall enjoy.

[monkey602]

Weird to see this because it was only yesterday I downloaded the demo on my xbox. I was going to buy the game until I played it. Not saying it isnt good, Just not as good as I had expectations for it to be.

[moparful99]

Now this is the type of commenting that this whole website should adopt. Its refreshing to not see "Ha 360 got it first, pslosers" "OH yea well we got UT3 first xbots" I really appreciate the heads up from the 360 owners that played this game and recommended it. I want to play it now based on what you all have stated. I really wish we could all share fantastic games instead of hording our exclusives and use them as "proof of our superiority" If we want gaming to be accepted as mass entertainment then we need not bicker and act as that of children.... Thanks fellas!!!
