What Gamespot Users have to say about Sid Meier's Civilization V
- Rating:8.5
Initially, a disappointment moving from Civilization IV; a revisit after patching revealed a wonderful and deeper game
Civilization V is truly a game that grows on you. At first, you may think "Eh? What's up with the policies? Why is unhappiness killing my attack power? Why can't my archers attack over hills?" or stuff like that. The key... Read Full Review

New features bring it closer to CIV III - the best part ever
So, it's good but somehow pale graphics, you start to play and you don't "feel" the cities somehow...but in time the game starts to grow on you as you discover new features that are lifelike and realistic (I personaly li... Read Full Review

New features as nice, but the improved AI is what makes all the difference.
The Good: AI is much better. Religion adds a lot to the game. New units, factions and scenarios. Naval combat is better. The Bad: Spies aren't very useful. AI still makes some mistakes. I will be honest: I did not ... Read Full Review

improved on many aspects but still not as good as the 2nd or 4th
So lots of improvements. 1. the engine is optimized (works slightly faster) still huge requirement for such a game. 2. addition of religion = plus layer of resource and strategic combination with other faiths but doesn... Read Full Review

Theoretically a good addition that just doesn't really do enough.
I'm going to preface my review here to say I kinda burned out on Civ 5. It lasted me several weeks, then another week a couple months later, but I was done. So, when I saw this expansion up for sale, I was really debat... Read Full Review

The best of the things left behind back, while cutting the clutter and making it fresh. And yes the AI does now fight!
The newest expansion brings back all the things that the fan base was upset wasn't included in V from IV in religion, espionage, the old wonders that were left out, and a bunch of old/new civs. The best part is that whil... Read Full Review

New or Old to the series, this game will make you smile and frown.
Civilization V is a game I could write for paragraphs on paragraphs on the different feelings you get while playing it, but I will try to sum it up as short as I can so you get the jist of it. The good, this would be ... Read Full Review
