[center]Gameplay[/center]



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



[center]Music[/center]



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.

Nah...I played as evil and it rocked. Being evil means fighting for power and striving to be the most evilest person ever...And being wanted...

I jsut beat land 4 with me and my creature as 100% good.

(He also had 100% muscle.)

It was hella hard because of all the invaders.

Ya it is a great game. I played it at my friend's house and he beat it several times. Too bad the story sucks, like Syphon said.

If EA hadn't've rushed it there would be online multiplayer. And probably a longer story.
