    Any Civ fans out there? Civ IV is bringing a whole new light to the game by removing a lot of the crap from Civ III and several new idea's like no base government system, but a full civics system. IE you won't start out as in despotism but be a barbaric, decentralized despotism with tribal labor and practicing paganism. Ah and speaking of such, religion has been added to the game. It sounds absolutely grand and is going to be full 3D. You can find a collection of all the info at Civ Fanatics.

    But heres some screenies to pump your interest(see them all at Civ Fanatics.) :D

    I have already preordered it. I started playing the game on my 286 some years ago. I got my wife hooked on it now she plays more than I do.

    The order is for Christmas for her so don't say anything. ;)

    It will be fun to have someone other than the computer to subjugate under the bootheel of my despotic authoritarian military will..

    ...errr.. I mean.. negotiate peaceful relationships with.. :p

    Ohh, Asp is one of those crazy Civ players. My friend used to sit in the corner giggling like a maniac while playing Civilization.

    pre-ordered it today. EB has all the info for the pre-order now, it will be out oct 25th so you may have to give it to her early race. ;) I would love to play with some hardcore people, asp, ouro. If I get beat, then I have something to learn from. The nice part is, this comes equiped with an alliance mode, IE: you share borders, you share wonder bonuses and you will be able to assist each other in defense.

    oh and if you a maniac Civ player, you should check this out. You'll be glad you did

    I can not wait. Played the series from the first one, got the wife hooked (and now she is better than I am at it).

    It really does not matter what they do with the series, I will still buy it.
