If youve ever played the classic title The Lost Vikings, then you know about what to expect, although this game is played from a top-down 3D view as opposed to being a 2D side-scrolling adventure.
Each of these four minions has its own personality and specific set of skills which are used in order to successfully navigate through each level and in solving various puzzles. Instead of managing hordes of minions by way of controlling an onscreen overlord, you are just given direct control over four minions in total. In Overlord Minions (OM) for the DS, the name says it all. Luckily, for systems like the Wii and DS, instead of just trying to port Overlord II directly to the less powerful hardware, some time and effort was actually taken to craft system specific experiences that attempt to take advantage of their respective consoles. Far from the Xbox 360 timed exclusivity of the original, new Overlord games recently hit just about every console currently on the market. However, what did come as bit of a revelation is just how many Overlord titles were coming. Because it was so well received, and because almost everybody loves to play as an antihero, it really came as no surprise that there was going to be a sequel. It was an original IP that both scored well with critics and found a loyal following of fans. Cook has missed 23 of 69 regular season games to injury in his career.The first Overlord seemingly came out of nowhere when it was released. Vikings: DT Michael Pierce (elbow) was inactive after getting hurt during the game last week, replaced in the starting lineup by Armon Watts. CB Corey Ballentine hurt a hamstring in the fourth quarter. He landed hard while being tackled as he tumbled out of bounds after a 21-yard reception. Lions: WR Quintez Cephus left in the second quarter with a shoulder injury and didn’t return.
Goff leads the league in both fumbles (six) and fumbles lost (four). Griffen was credited with a half-sack and a forced fumble, recovered by James Lynch at the 35. Then, Griffen used a slick spin move to slip past Sewell, who was listed as questionable for the game with an ankle injury, and take down Goff in tandem with Hunter. On first-and-10 from the 23, Griffen bull-rushed past the seventh overall selection for an 8-yard sack. Griffen beat first-round draft pick Penei Sewell on back-to-back plays in the first quarter to destroy a promising drive for the Lions. We’ve got to still use it as momentum,” Thielen said. “We aren’t happy with our performance, but at the end of the day we’ve got to enjoy a win. Thielen had one of three drops by Vikings receivers. Cousins went 25 for 34 for 275 yards and an interception. Mattison had a first down catch that crossed midfield called back for a penalty in the third quarter, when the Vikings wound up punting. Thielen had a 20-yard reception to the 4 that was negated by holding during a second quarter drive the Vikings capped with a field goal.
Justin Jefferson took six of his seven catches for first downs and finished with 124 yards for the Vikings, whose offense has not scored a second half touchdown in four straight games. I say that every week, but we’ve got a resilient bunch who will bounce back,” said Jared Goff, who posted a 64.3 passer rating while going 21 for 35 for 203 yards.Įric Kendricks made a one-handed interception in the third quarter, and Everson Griffen and Danielle Hunter each had 1 1/2 of the team’s four sacks. “It’s as hard as it gets in this league, to do stuff like that and to try to bounce back from it. Jared Goff, who had turnovers earlier in the game to end two drives that inside the 30, connected on a pass to KhaDarel Hodge for the lead. Instead of settling for the tie, Campbell kept the offense on the field. Three plays later, D’Andre Swift had the Lions in the end zone with 7-yard run. Joseph made four field goals, including a career-best 55-yarder, as the Vikings casually played a field position game until the extra-safe strategy nearly cost them a must-have victory.Īfter Joseph’s 49-yard attempt with 3:17 remaining strangely fell short, the Lions (0-5) went the other way for Austin Seibert’s third field goal to pull within 16-9.Īlexander Mattison, who ably filled in for the injured Dalvin Cook with 153 total yards and a second quarter touchdown catch, had the ball ripped away by Jalen Reeves-Maybin on a third-and-7 run from the Minnesota 21 right after the 2-minute warning with Detroit out of timeouts. Not particularly proud of the way we played, though,” said Zimmer, who watched the Vikings (2-3) lose a 10-point lead with less than three minutes left.
“I’m proud of our guys the way they fought.
