I built my current computer like 2-3 years ago and it looks like it should run this swimmingly (quad-core core 2 duo, GeForce 8800 GTX, 4GB RAM)

Civ Revolution is free today for iphone/ipod. http://toucharcade.com/2010/08/06/ci...ree-for-a-day/

Sounds great, especially adding gold per turn for every road.

Looks like the cost money/turn, not add it. :/

Well, yeah, thats what I meant to say anyway. In Civ IV you could just happily build roads all over the place which looked awful but it helped moving units. Now you actually have to think about building another road/railroad because upkeep is getting bigger and bigger. Adds a little more strategic thinking.

just gets better and better.

Cant wait for V to come out...

Played some games of IV recently, and while its great and the gameplay is amazing its aged a bit..

For some reason playing through Starcraft 2 really has me wanting Civ5.

Must be SC and Civ 4 were awesome, and since SC2 is awesome, therefore Civ 5 is awesome.

Am I the only one that thinks that this fluff piece is retarded?

Example: "Combat between units, like the interface, has been streamlined a bit. Instead of showing you a percentage chance of your unit's victory over an enemy as in Civ 4, the game will tell you, in plain English, how it expects your attack to go—safely, major victory, major loss, and so forth. This may annoy numbers-junkies, but does a 5 percent change in either directly really impact whether or not you'll attack? The new system gives you a much clearer idea of how things are likely to go. "

On what planet is it "clearer" to say "major victory" than having the game tell you the exact percentage chance of victory?
