I do hope this happens. Superb idea, silly name. Lose that name, Make that game. Godus isus notus a properus nameus for a gameus. It's like Monty Python on Benzedrine. Not very inspired.
We never stopped playing the original two Populous titles, we only paused playing it when the hardware died - no matter how many times we've had to solder and resolder those homemade Amiga serial 'network' cables.
If the young players only know the later works of Microsoft Borg Molyneyx, it's a real shame. Populous was and is amazing and inspiring, as is Syndicate and - to a lesser extent - Powermongo, Populous' juicing idiot cousin.
I enjoyed making a smelly satanic demon cow in Black & White, but I eventually lost all interest in the game. I never enjoyed any Populous title after 2. I finished and enjoyed the first Fable, whatever followed after that is lost in a haze of broken promises and pink fluffy clouds of sales pitch marketing talk and dreamy mumbo jumbo crazy talk... and some very, very odd gameplay experiences that weren't plain broken but... quite different, annoying and weird.
