Black & White
I know that most of you saw the Black & White screenshots a few days ago. Now we at
Computers R Us has made a preview of the game. As most of you could see so is Black &
White a strategy game. The full game is in 3D and the  screenshots
look pretty nice. The game-world is constructed using Lionhead’s revolutionary new,
fully scalable, rotating, environment-mapped, modifiable landscape with an engine giving
through-the-eye vision, bump mapping, light sourcing and reflections.
.
Dotted about the landscape are tribes of human-type creatures. The game is designed so
that from a perspective high above the clouds can you zoom in to watch these individuals
going around doing their daily business. Just by observing them, you will find they live
"natural" lives with virtually every aspect of village life built in. Not only
will the villagers plough, hunt and fish, but they will visit friends, play games, fall in
love, get married and much more. Every tribe also has its own specials so that they donīt
look alike.
The tribes are an important part of the game. There will be a large number of  different tribe types that as i mentioned above
has itīs own moves and looks. They are based on parallels from past and present history:
Japanese, Tibetan, Red Indian, Greek, Zulu, Cossack and so on. Every tribe has itīs own
pupose in the game.
