Codemasters was demoing the upcoming Overlord game for the Wii, Overlord Dark Legend on the Comic-Con showfloor. The game is a prequel to the Overlord games that we've seen on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 and focuses on the youthful adventures of the Overlord. While this might sound like a set up for like "Muppet Babies" or something, it's not. You'll still be tearing up the countryside with your minions and wrecking general havoc. The Codies rep on hand pointed out that the game's been developed from the ground up for the Wii so the game's going to benefit from a nunchuk and remote friendly control system. The work in progress version they were demoing also looked like the graphics were coming together well too. We couldn't get our hands on it yet so we just got an on-camera demo. Look for more on the game later this month from Codemasters' gamer's day, until then check out the video.
