Overlord gains a subtitle, expansion content for PS3 port photo

In case you hadn't gotten a chance to try Overlord on the Xbox 360 or PC, the game is being ported over to the PlayStation 3 for release this Summer. As per most fashionably late PS3 ports, Overlord: Raising Hell will include some added incentive.

Essentially, Overlord: Raising Hell is just getting all of the downloadable content that's already available for the Xbox 360 and PC versions, but for free. Besides that, there's going to be a mini-map, which should prove to be invaluable for a game as confusing as Overlord.

Do you guys think that this new version of Overlord is worth the wait, or should first time players go ahead and pick the game up now for PC or 360 since it's relatively inexpensive by today's standards?

I dunno about the minimap. Sure, it'll make the game easier, but it might take away from the amount of concentration the player has to keep to remember his surroundings and the levels.

Not too keen on the minimap, personally. But, will probably pick it up on the PS3 since it will have all the content in one place and easier controls even though I already own it for the PC.

I'd get it for the 360 if I was either a) realy into achievements, which I'm not or b) Microsoft didn't create a POS cd drive that makes me wonder if my 360 isn't trying to rocket propel itself into space.

I payed 50$ for it earlier today. I was waiting and waiting to buy it cheap but got tired of waiting and just bought it. Really cool game, split-screen multiplayer is actually a neat thing. Not perfect, but it sucks I miss out on some free stuff...

Still, achievements rock and I don't even own a PS3.

So should the 360 content become free when this is released? Kinda how Rainbow 6 had to do so with the map packs?

I'll tell my brother about this, he's not that much of a gamer, but I think he would like this. (he got the PS3 for Bluray)
