This was announced at E3 a few months ago but with very little information.

A new video showing off some of the power this engine has really peaked my interest. Now I can't wait for this game!

Just watch the video to get the gist of it.

I'm very intrigued by this game, can't wait.

I'd only get this to sink civilization. Looks like Black and White with you being able to control the environment instead of the people that live in it.

On a scale of 1-10 for enthusiasm for this game, I give it a 3/10.

I'd like to see what else you could do, like inserting dangerous wildlife to co-exist with the humans and occasionaly attack them.

I'm sort of interested, I'm excited to see more.

I wouldn't get your hopes up, RED. It looks like a pretty picture in the museum that you can only look at for so long until your attention fades from it.

This is most likely true.

So like Pocket God but with 400000x more? Sounds good to me! :D

I can already see some people making mountains in the shape of certain genitalia

It looks okay, but not spectacular

Yeah, I saw these videos on this game a while back. I was surprised when I saw it was an "Arcade," title, or whatever. Definitely looks worth the buy, and the fact that it's just for XBLA or PSN makes it much more worth it.

It's work in progress.

Looks amazing.

Looks amazing.

Also looks boring as hell.

This game got released yesterday for Xbox Live Arcade and is set to be released Aug. 17th for PC. I was looking at some videos on youtube and it looks pretty cool, but I'm still quite hesitant. It currently has a metacritic rating of 79 for Xbox.

79 is pretty good, I might have to give it a try when it's out on PC.
I'm actually very excited, this is the first time I'm seeing gameplay and it looks like a very fun sandbox experience that I've been craving for a while. It's nice to have so much control over nature.

They confirmed it does not have a sandbox mode. It's only levels, or objective-based mission things. It's more of a puzzle game than anything else.

Did they also confirm that it's going to be terrible.

Couldn't resist, sorry.

Played the trial, found it pretty boring. No way did it provide enough fun to be worth 1200 points. The amount of earth you could absorb at once was pretty small too.

You can absorb a shit more earth later on, Zorgy. Also it seems to be picking up the pace quite quickly. I'm on something like the fifth level and I've already used about one new power for every scenario. I'm liking it so far.

Is it like populous or was that just marketing?
