My #1 pet peeve with Civ5 is all the empty space on the map.
When did you ever run serfdom instead of slavery or caste system in Civ IV? Oh right, never.
Just how OP was pyramids & representation over HR? <---------------------------------> Much x infinity.
How great were aggressive and protective traits? Oh right, they were the most underpowered.
How much did trying to get an early religion instead of worker techs cripple your economy at the start? Too much.
I built 5 cities on deity. And now I'm at 0% science slider and still on negative GPT, oh noes! Meanwhile the AI has 15-20 cities each with no problems. Awesome balance!
Civ IV was very good, but it probably had the worst balance flaws out of the entire series.
3 was my favorite. I've never really understood why so many people praise 2 as the best, I thought the online play in 3 was significantly better.I've been playing Halo 2 for XBox 1.0. The best in the series, IMO, and the XBox 1.0 is much more reliable than the 360.
This is my main issue with Civ5, so much about it seems to discourage building a massive empire (which is something I love to do). Civ5 and Civ4 both have good limitations on early game expansion, creating tension between rapid expansion and developing a few powerful cities. However, later on in Civ4 you can start either conquering a massive empire or doing a settler backfill to grab the less desirable spots once your economy can support the drain. In Civ5 that isn't really possible. Sure, you can puppet cities you conquer but that doesn't give me the same level of satisfaction as getting a new city to rule and manage.Have you played BNW? Having only 3-4 cities max is generally the best strategy unless you're going for domination.
Bastion is great so far. I love love love the art style, it's a beautiful game.
I tried it at first with the mouse. I like it a lot more with the controller.Do you have a controller? I wasn't that into the game when I first got it but once I swapped in an xbox controller instead of mouse it got a lot better. Kind of weird but the game just seemed to flow more nicely. Good game.
I don't mind it. My favorite thing to do is OCC anyways.This is my main issue with Civ5, so much about it seems to discourage building a massive empire (which is something I love to do).

Train Fever. It really is like a non-grid and modern version of Transport Tycoon which is awesome by the way! Although I'm sad there aren't airplanes or monorails... yet.
Max Payne 3
Despite the change to Sao Paulo it definitely keeps at least a decent amount of the gritty noire feel from the first two games, it is just a lot more colourful. Still pretty dirty though. It probably has more time in cutscenes than actually playing but I am quite enjoying it, although I wish it wouldn't constantly switch to Max wielding a pistol for and after every cutscene when I was using a shotgun or rifle beforehand.

spent over a day downloading a ridiculous 7.6gb of tf2 updates. Worth it though
