From Dust

One of the best games I have played this year. You can download it on XBOX or PS3. I highly recommended it.

What are you meant to do?

It is a god game. It is tough to describe. Watch the video.
You protect this tribe from nature. Volcanos, tsunamis, wild fires ect.

I watched it, but without sound (at work), looks interesting. Might check it out if there is a demo.

i'm waiting for the pc release.

I liked it. I hope that they can develop it into a simulation type game.

Hmm. I haven't played any video games since the Halos. I gave up on them because (sigh) nothing seemed as good.

This is definitely an interesting concept. You versus the power of nature and natural history. Definitely sounds more cerebral that the FPS games that make my palms sweat.

Does it really hold your attention after an hour or two? I'm thinking that I would quickly get bored.

It takes about 8 hours for the main game depending on how fast you are able to solve each puzzle. It is excellent

I enjoyed this game. I remember playing Black and White back in 2001. God games are really fun if executed well.
