Anyone remember the game Black & White? A game that was developed by Lionhead Studios, and published by EA.

I remember getting this game for Christmas when it first came out and playing this for hours. I use to build these huge villages and so on.

Anyone have any fond memories of this game? To be completely honest I think this is Peter Molyneux's best work, and would love to see Black & White 3. Since there were a few expansion packs, and of course Black & White 2.

I remember seeing a lot of hype for that game, and I remember people talking about game having two versions: the black and the white ones. That game was like spore / populous right?

is that a pokemon game
black and white?

One of the best games I've ever played. Awkward AI, very 2001 graphics, annoying voice acting (at least in the Polish version) and it's still much better than most modern games. I remember burning all people in Nemesis's last village just to overtake it with one missionary. Good times. And accidentally smashing my villages with a rock while trying to make an artefact. And discovering that my creature devours my workers while I'm not looking. Good times.

Creature Isle was disappointing, to be honest. I like the idea, but it could have been made better. Some challenges were really hard, but it was because of the creature's AI that couldn't handle tasks more complicated than walking in straight line. A straight line on a completely flat terrain. In the turtle race I've managed to shrink my creature to cheat the same way as the turtle, but my chicken refused to go the way I wanted it to go. I enjoyed playing that game, but I wouldn't call it a masterpiece.

Black & White 2 had awesome graphics but not much more. People weren't impressed by a god throwing fireballs at them, so you had to make an army to be evil. The problem is that you never had enough men to form a squad, because people were growing up much too slowly. The only way to get more people fast was accepting migrants, which means getting a huge boost to good alignment. Basically you had to be good in order to win. What's more, the creature was completely useless. B&W2 expansion was completely forgettable.

I don't think we will see Black & White 3 soon. Maybe after they finish working on Fable CDXX they will consider making a B&W themed IOS app that would be a facebookish money-cow (like Dungeon Keeper) or Kinectimals clone for Micro$oft's spy machine (like Zoo Tycoon).

marianne26 : no, this was before Pokemon Black & White

doomknight1905 : Yeah it had like a spore feel to it. Some people say it's Fable before Fable, it's made by Peter Molyneux.

SQman : Yeah I highly doubt we will see a B&W 3, it would be nice, I'd buy it day 1 lol

I remember the sequel to that game whispered your name if you were playing it late at night. That would've freaked me out so very much.
