With such high reviews, I was expecting something more from Civ 4. I have played all 3 previous versions, including Alpha Centauri. Honestly, the gaming experience in Civ 4 is exactly the same as the previous ones. Maybe a few more units, the addition of "Great Persons" and "Religion", better graphics, but all in all, I felt I was playing Civ 3.
For those who never played Civilization, you'll loose a lot of sleep on this game. For experienced Civ players (and a lot of them gave good rating to this game), I have a hard time figuring what you found so great.
