Best one so far.
I fell i love with Civ as a child starting with civ1, and played through the whole series. I always hated the fact that you could stack units on one tile and was/am one of the people that curses the "stack of doom". ... Read Full Review

You'll begin to notice that you're easily playing this game for hours at a time. It's not StarCraft, Age of Empires, or any other RTS or TBS game you can think of. It's Sid Meier's Civilization V coming out exclusively f... Read Full Review

Great potential ruined by constant crashing, cut features, slow pace, and poor implementation.
The Good: One unit per tile - no more stack of doom, needs to be implemented better however (sending two units to same tile, they cancel their movements next turn, and you can't even see where you ordered them to go w... Read Full Review

Dissapointing to say the least
I'm a huge fan of the Civilization series and while the game can be addictive it has many faults. One of my biggest gripes is the fact that they have dumbed down the gameplay to the point of where it's too simplified. ... Read Full Review

3 hours in and I miss: stacked units, capturing cities with culture, too few options, too much or not enough hud info.
Upon first impression, it certainly seems to be a well put together game: 1. It has a good intro 2. The startup interface is polished 3. I haven't had any performance or crashing issues But... when you dig in to th... Read Full Review

Civilization V is another TBS testament to Sid Meier and critics and gamers couldn't be more amazed.

Streamlined and still as complex as ever, the game just feels right. Sure everything is not perfect but it still awesome
The positive. 1. Its CIV same concept in a new package 2. Interface and Graphics looks great and works even better 3. Game Balance is good out of the box, not perfect but good. 4. The removal of sliders works great... Read Full Review
