Black And White Sequel Previewed

An anonymous reader points out that TotalVideoGames has a first look preview of Black And White 2, the sequel to Lionhead's creature-poking 'god' game from a couple of years back. The preview comes complete with 16 rather attractive screenshots, and mentions that "the world now is much more chaotic and destructive" - in other words, there's lots more stopping and creating wars with your giant pet creature. Black And White 2 is due to ship for PC close to Xmas 2003.

    Here, here! I'll second all that and add the critique of the one and only time I played the multiplayer.... which was basically me and 2 other guys sitting around doing nothing for 20 mins.

    Another thing that bothered me about that game was the fact that it was such a big time sink with so little pay off. I never once got my creature sizably big, because you had to play for around 20 hours to max out the size. YAWN! 20 hours? Sheesh.

    But don't feel bad about being the only one to buy it on hype, in case you were worried. I bought it based on hype too, and from friends as well. Sadly, they had only played for about 2 hours when they hyped me :(.
