Dawn of Discovery and Little Kings Story seem like great games, Overlrod as well.

LKS got a better score than The Conduit. I'm surprised, but I expected nothing less. I probably won't get LKS though, strategy games are not my fortei.

Good for LKS. After reading some reviews Overlord is not a big surprise, although I am surprised at Harry Potter getting a 5.5, EA has had a lot of time to work on this game so I did not think it would be that low.

I got Overlord DL today. I'm a little disappointed there hasn't been more interest in the game than what there is, but I think we should support a game like this, so I didn't mind paying full price for it.

Off-topic: Your display picture is freaking awesome. On-topic: LKS: I would buy it if it had pointer controls. I'll rent to see if I'll still like it though. Dawn of Discovery: What is this game? I've never heard of it. Overlord: I was hoping for higher, maybe I'll rent it.

Me too. I don't want to start an argument over which one is better but LKS originality made me sure it would outscore The Conduit.

It does not reflect my personal views of either game but I totally understand why LKS would score higher than The Conduit. And I am not saying The Conduit is better than LKS.

Good to hear another great score for Little King's Story. I know it is getting a lot of great scores and all, but I just don't know if it is the kind of game for me. I don't know what to expect.

I'm probably alone here, but I'm looking forward to Dawn of Discovery. I've got that to review this month (it'll roll over into July, probably), and I've been keeping an eye out for a good strategy game on the DS. Civilization Revolution DS was such a letdown...

supposedly its like pikmin and I wouldn't know if thats good or not as I've never played pikmin. (shocking) some say overlord is a bit like pikmin as well but with an evil and hilarious twist and I love being evil so overlord appeals to me a fair bit

Guys, in your happiness for LKS, don't overlook the other good games that came out that are on that list and high-scoring.

Shin Megami Tenseiis an RPG from the guys who make the Persona games. It got an 80% from NP and a 90% from GS. It's looks amazing. If I were in the US, I'd buy it right now.

Dawn of Discovery is an RTS that's like a cross between SimCity and Age of Empires. The DS version got an 85% from NP and an 89% from GameZone. The Wii version got an 87% from IGN UK, a 90% from GamingXP, and an 84% from ONM.

I just bought Dawn of Discovery for Wii.

While you wait for LKS, consider these titles.

I was considering getting Dawn of Discovery today actually, but I decided to just save up and wait for LKS and The Prime Trilogy. I really want to play it though, any quick impressions click?

Well the boxart is nice. :P

Bought it off Amazon, so I'll get it next week. I've been whining about how under-utilized the IR sensor is in games: how there should be way more RTS, point-and-click Adventure, and FPS games. So I can't wait to play this.

Just playing the tutorial will take 10 hours. Then you're in free-play, which is like the whole of SimCity (i.e. you get a full 'simcity' game PLUS a very long story-mode tutorial), and you just keep playing and playing. Amazing value. The game is only $30. And it's one of the rare games that's the same price in the US and Canada.

It's an Ubisoft game that's actually good. Is that one of the signs of the apocalypse? :|

I was staying up all night for so long at exam time that my days are completely shifted. I'm like on Australian time or something. I never feel tired until 8AM and then I sleep till 3PM. I'm trying to shift myself slowly back to normal person time. Oh, and I just finished world 4 of Henry Hatsworth so I'm full of adrenaline and wouldn't be able to sleep anyway. It was so hard. I had to grind the lower levels to build up extra lives so I could make it through the levels and the boss. This is by far the hardest platformer I've ever played. Maybe even the hardest game...

Right on thanks for the updates, I love NP!The only games I'm excited for are there are Overlord, both versions but mostly the Wii andShin Megami Tensai. Little King Story a little bit sure.
