Played for a few hours last night. Taking some adjusting to get used to it. VERY different from previous civ games. One thing I noticed...things take FOREVER. The game just seems to move along a lot slower to me (i'm at standard speed).

I just could not get into Morrowind or Oblivion. I really tried on both of those. However, I played the snot out of Fallout 3. Oblivion I felt totally lost in. Maybe it's the addition of the PipBoy in Fallout games but I felt much more direction in Fallout 3. I like playing games for...

I'm not surprised. The thing was powered by an Atom processor. Running full Windows7 on Atom is not something I want to sign up for. The reason the iPad performs like it does is becuase it's the iPhone OS in tablet form. Maybe HP will have some success with WebOS on a tablet now that they...

DO WANT DO WANT DO WANT! Seriously, Civ is one of the few games that I will buy upon release without waiting for a price drop. I love me some Civ!

Yes, takes me about 10-15 mins for my Mage. However, that is a LOT better than standing in Dal and spamming trade chat "DPS LFG 5man Heroic" for 30 mins when my guild is not going anything.

Apple just delivered a big dud. I know rumors and hype are not all to be believed but going into today's event I had a feeling that they were going to show something special. There was going to be a partnership with textbook companies so learning could take place in new ways with electronic...

It seems like Square feels the need to ratchet up the "emo factor" with every new Final Fantasy lately. That being said...I want it. This is the one series where just about every entry is an excellent experience.

Looks like all the sales are over now maybe? No more special sale ads on the steam site.

Just picked up Evil Genius. $2.50 is certainly impulse buy territory. Liked the demo when I played it a long time ago but never got around to buying the full game.

Whatever the next one is going to be...it should be out next year and is assuredly already been in development for a while: http://www.kotaku.com.au/2009/11/report-activision-sets-up-third-call-of-duty-team/

I wonder who they will try to pay off to get a good review this time?

Got this a couple months ago. Played it for a little while and haven't picked it up since. My number one gripe with it was that structures were no longer all contained in the towns. If you were zoomed in you had to go find the structure you wanted to interact with somewhere in the province/state.

This. Why would you need to get a strategy guide for this game? It's not like there's intricate puzzles that are impossible to solve?

In.
