I'm playing the Demigod beta, and it's soo good looking, and it doesn't take a ton of resources! It's much less taxing than Supreme Commander...but there's still plenty of units onscreen going at it, with virtually no slowdown.
It's pretty sweet, but I have to get used to more of the game. There's a few things I'd like changed, but overall it's not hard at all to jump in and play...it took me about 5 minutes to get from not knowing what I was doing at all to swaying the battle in my favor.
I love playing as the Rook the most...the gigantic stone demigod. You can upgrade him with archers in his shoulders, light towers (they're like "laser" defense towers), and catapults. It's a ton of fun and looks awesome.
I bought it on Impulse, Stardock's digital distribution platform, but it's available for retail pre-order as well...that should get you into the beta...I'm not sure though. I'm pretty sure this is open now to anyone who pre-orders for $45.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
