You gotta be kidding me Dommy. Trust reviewers that have been paid off by 2k more than your fellow CivFanatics.
I doubt they've been paid off.
But I think the amount of complaining that's been generated about it is ridiculous. If its really THAT BAD, just don't post in the CiV forums, don't post something negative every two seconds.
And besides, CivFanatics are well known, in general, for being too fanatical to be trustworthy...
I think it's important to remember that more reviewers are usually not Civ experts (or experts on any of the games they review). They just get the game, play it for awhile, and then give their impression they are likely know have some meaningful stuff to say about the game's graphics and interface, but they are unlikely to know much about the game's depth of strategy (unless it is a fairly simple game) or balance or longevity.
This is true...
