Absolutely wonderful, they removed all the tediousness of the last one and made being a good God not an impossible task.
Creatures are harder to train too. Combining the RTS, city simulation, and god game genres was a stroke of genius.
I haven't played starcraft in 4 days because of this game, that's the longest ever since 1999. (When I discovered b.net.)
9/10
(There could've been more miracles.)
[center]Story[/center]
This wasn't as flavourful as the prequel, which is saying something because I didn't find black&white I's story very flavourful. I do like how you can ehar the enemies conspiring against you though.
The whole aztecs controlling everythnig seems a bit far fetched.
4/10
[center]Graphics[/center]
...Where to begin, for a game this massive it keeps detail down to having 400 autonomous people on the screen at once, and all of them having a slightly different beard. Simply stunning if your computer can handle full effects.
15/10
[center]Controls[/center]
They've perfected the whole concept of dragging the land, and the controls have almost no flaws. It's jsut too bad about everything not being gestures anymore.
8/10

You'll hardly ever notcie it, but it gives enough ambience. I loved the voice acting too, not everyone having a british accent. Which is something because LionHead studios is based in the UK.
8/10
Overall I give this game 9/10 it losses the one point for the lack of miracles, but makes up for it in the expanded everything else.
I emplore you, buy this game. Or steal ti froma friend.
