I probably won't be getting it day one, but I'm interested in it.

I always suck at strategy games though... I never got around to picking up Civ: Rev and never played another Civilizations game though.

I'll definitely get it, but I'll probably wait a while for the price to drop.

Try to be familiar with turn-based strategy games before then. I've found it hard to get around with Civ IV for the first time.

My wife used to be a hardcore strategy gamer, and then our wee girl arrived to spoil all her fun... ;)

As it happens we are due our second daughter in 4 weeks, so it gives her something to do whilst she is on bed rest.

I'll wait until at least 24 hours after release... I don't wanna get Elementalled. :shock:

Actually I guess I could just play the demo on release day and make sure everything runs smoothly.

Awww. Well hopefully the baby will be empowered with awesome turn based strategy skills. Maybe when she's born she'll just come out and look at the doctor and say "One....more...turn" and crawl back in.

I'm going to wait a while until the expansions and all the DLC it looks like they are planning on making all come in one neat little package. I already have more games than I know what to do with, which is the main reason I'm not in any particular hurry. I'm also kind of irritated about non-Valve games requiring Steam, so I guess there is also that.

Is Civ V a steam exclusve? I know you can buy it in the shops but if its just going t give you a STEAM code I had better just go straight to steam.

It uses the Steamworks platform. It will require Steam.

I'm interested in it but i've never played a CiV game, although i know they require a lot of time to get into, which is something i don't have right now. maybe over winter break.

i would buy it day one if i had a computer that could run it, sadly i have laptop from 4 years ago that i use, so you can imagine how bad it is. However whenever i can find a job i'll be purchasing the pieces to build a nice desktop and i will certainly get it.

Until then i'll be heading to my friends house so we can play some hotseat

I'm getting my very first Civ game in the holidays! Does anyone know how many hours it takes to really get into these games? Who here just buys them for the soundtrack! Raise your hand!

Picked it up on D2D when they had the coupons going on. $10 off and a free DLC was just to good to pass off.

Yeah, this is the better deal. Free DLC (when it releases) is better than a map pack.

I'd already purchased Digital Deluxe on Steam when I found out about it. Don't care enough to get a refund and rebuy it though.
