  • Shall we serve you Lord? Hmmmm...No, I want you to die!-(Epinions Works W/O)

    Sep 15 '01
    Pros: Theoretically unbeatable. Humorous, mischievous, screwy gameplay.
    Cons: Massive resource hog. Clunky interface. Time.

    Summary: After I came up with the idea for having this write-off, I soon found myself in a bit of a predicament. What if I couldn’t decide what to write about in my own write-off? The problem certainly wasn’t a lack of ideas. The problem was a host ... read more

  • Be a God! Whee!

    Dec 27 '05
    Pros: Cast miracles, Raise a creature, Choose between good or evil
    Cons: Can't skip tutorial, and um... that's about it

    Summary: Ever wish you could just... raze an entire village? Fling those annoying villagers around a bit? Or would you rather heal them and give them food? Well, now you can do whichever you'd like. This is a game where you *are* god. The story: A child ... read more

  • Ingenious and Original, Black and White Introduces a New World of Gameplay

    Dec 24 '03
    Pros: Exciting gameplay, wonderful design and layout
    Cons: Navigating through the world can grow irritating (but this is alleviated by the helpful tutorial)

    Summary: Ever wondered what it would be like to be a god? Having control over the land, countless numbers dedicating their entire lives to serve you? Black and White lets you satisfy these curiosities. The game begins when you rescue a little boy from sharks. ... read more

  • Well I am honestly Black, not white [Part of the "Summer 03 comeback special"]

    Aug 01 '03
    Pros: Graphics, very fun to play
    Cons: Not for everyone

    Summary: I have noticed that many American-based video game developing companies always seem to suck when it ... read more

  • Black and White

    Jun 05 '02
    Pros: Interesting concept, fairly decent graphics, low price.
    Cons: Can't change resolution in "Options", zoom interface is VERY annoying.

    Summary: GRAPHICS The graphics on this game are fair, but what is really annoying is that there is no option in the "Options" button that let's you select a different resolution. You know, like 400x800 to 1027x768. Like I said, nothing too ... read more

  • Black and White is a MUST BUY for the PC!

    May 19 '02
    Pros: everything but...
    Cons: ...the stupid camera angles!

    Summary: BLACK & WHITE No PC game (except Diablo 2) has ever grasped me as much as BW. It’s a masterpiece that everyone should. If this were an arcade game at a diner, I would’ve wasted 45 bucks in the last couple of days. This game should be played ... read more

  • Black & White: Great game!

    May 13 '02
    Pros: Great graphics, fun gameplay, no set way to play the game
    Cons: Interface kinda tricky, creature a little hard to train, needs a very powerful computer

    Summary: I have written a few game reviews and I find this game to be one of the hardest to review. There is a wide variety of ways to play this game and there is no set way that the game needs to be played. For instance, you can be good, you can be evil, or ... read more

  • Great game, that's if you can save your gameplay.

    May 01 '02
    Pros: Addictive, great graphics, many puzzles and distinct gameplay involved.
    Cons: Complicated interface, patches for game worsen gameplay.

    Summary: Gameplay Pros:: Once you start out, this game will simply amaze you. I was so into it that I couldn't stop for seven hours on end, missing chores and other things while into Black & White is totally normal. It's very addictive. ... read more

  • Not for the Fast-Mover

    Apr 07 '02
    Pros: Tremendous graphics, one of best AI's I have ever seen.
    Cons: Very slow moving, requires an extensive amount of patience.

    Summary: Black & White, billed as a graphically superb and with the world's most advanced AI, lived up to that billing. The screenshots on the official site for the game do not do it justice, as the landscapes and images are fascinating. What the ... read more

  • I'll tell you what B and W is really like

    Jan 26 '02
    Pros: It's fun, it's pretty, it's big
    Cons: It gets repetitious. It's too much work at the end

    Summary: I picked up Black and White the week it came out. Even though the opening movie stuttered, I could tell the game was special. I went out and bought a better computer just to play this game. It's nice the way you can meet the little people up ... read more

  • Unfortunately, not a good game.

    Jan 05 '02
    Pros: Innovative game....
    Cons: that is not fun.

    Summary: NOTE This is an updated review. I am still learning the best way to write reviews, so this may not be the only review I update and it may not be the only time I update this review. THE GAME You are God. No, I'm not ... read more

  • Are you Black or White

    Dec 29 '01
    Pros: gameplay, interface and the freedom to complete game in any way you like
    Cons: learning curve

    Summary: Computer Gaming World called it a one of the five games that will change gaming forever. With this hype this game was launched in the beginning of this year and released only 2 months back in India. I as usual, rushed to Mumbai with my uncle as usual to ... read more

  • Pretty and pretty boring

    Dec 17 '01
    Pros: It looks very pretty
    Cons: There isn't much else besides looks

    Summary: The only positive thing I can say for this game is that it looks really pretty. A graphical tour de force, with cute devil and angel cartoon-like characters who represent your conscience and guide you through the game. The three dimensional landscape ... read more

  • Good Game, If Only It Would Work!

    Nov 27 '01
    Pros: Great concept, addictive, fun
    Cons: Very glitchy

    Summary: I'll give a game a chance when my husband buys it. This one looked like it would be fun. I like the thought of taking care of a little world all your own and seeing if you can do it successfully. When we first bought it we were both so enthralled by ... read more

  • Be what you will...you are destiny

    Nov 18 '01
    Pros: Excellent creature AI, stunning graphics, user interface
    Cons: Some quests are boring

    Summary: Black and White is the newest and coolest of the "God Game" genre. In Black and White, you play a newly minted deity who is thrust into a world of competing gods. You must overcome them all. The coolest part of Black ... read more

  • Black or White?

    Oct 20 '01
    Pros: Great innovative title
    Cons: slow to load, short for production time.

    Summary: Black box or white box? This is the first of many decisions you will make in this huge R.T.S game. At every point in the game, you can choose whether to choose the ‘Good’ or the ‘Bad’ way of doing things. One good example of this, in the first land you ... read more
