It sure looks nice, and I own a 360 but I just can't see myself getting this. The gamestop review sold (or should I say, un-sold) it for me...
"gone are the terrain modification options"
"you're stuck with one particular style of randomly generated landmass" wow that stinks
"Gone too is the ability to do any great terraforming projects" BOOOOO!
"they didn't include a mini-map." no mini-map? no thank you.
Please don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be a fanboy or scream perfection. From what Ive seen CivRev has LOTS of A++ features that I absolutely adore. However I don't like this whole idea of making it more, I don't know, accessable to a new generation? Does that sound right? I think you know what I mean. But I was 7 years old when I played Civ I and I didn't read the manual. All I had was trial and error and the civipedia (no gamefaqs back then thats for sure). Is this a remarkable feat? Not by any means, in fact I still can't beat Prince level. But did I need Civ-Lite when I was 7? No. ...do I need it now? No thanks, Civ-Rev - you're console-only because you just wouldn't fly on the PC.
