I would rate the game at below zero if I could. Compared to the older civs, it has nothing to add expect a 3d GUI. No more ideas, bad implementation, poor programming, slow and buggy platform. A disgrace for such a game to bear the strong name of Civilization. I wonder why someone who did actually experience the strong moments of Civ2, Civ3 and Alpha Centauri needs to buy this new poorly implemented effort.
My advise to the designers: next time you reissue a Civ Product add some value on it (it's not the brand that will keep your products alive).
My advise to the players: go buy the older versions of Civ.
