Eric Chahi the creator of the classic Future Wars and Another World has finally worked on a new game, the first since the pretty good Heart of Darkness way back in 1998. It is said to be a cross between Populous and Black & White.

It will be out sometime this year on PC, PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade.
 
Looks pretty interesting from the looks of it. I'll have to check it out once it's released.

wow. glad to hear there's a PC version.

but what does steam exclusive mean?
You can only download it on steam......no other similar game service
That's not entirely true. Steam exclusive means that no matter where you purchase it you will have to register it to a Steam account. The actual game data can come from any kind of source though really.
 
Oh how I loved Heart of Darkness and its hundreds of ways to get you killed!

AMIGO!

so it means it's possible to pirate it? or better purchase it?

Of course it's still going to be piratable like all other Steam titles, but that's besides the point.
 
Frontpage'd by Another World.

Another World looked interesting although I never really got into it. Still, Chahi's influence in gaming and his innovations in art style are still enough to perk my ears at any game he makes. It looks good from the screenies, hopefully it'll be excellent.
 
if those are the real ingame screenshots and not cutscenes... then definitely a game to look out for
guild review this statement "Eric Chahi the creator of the classic Future Wars and Another World" hehe...
its all about the mechanics in strategy games, graphics dont go too far (AOE?)
