Black & White was a game I anticipated for three years. The ability to create your own creature that changes based on your actions excited me. Now that the game is here I feel more complete, but slightly disappointed. The games graphics and AI are top-notch. The sound and music are perfect, environments in the game are beautiful. Once you start having to run your towns, however, the game gets bogged down with micromanagement. You have to give each town food, wood, buildings, and children. Unfortunately, once you've given each of your towns these things, you have to do it again, and don't have much time to complete quests. Don't get me wrong: I still like the game, I just don't think it turned out as well as it could have.
