3000 BC? You guys call yourself Civ fanatics and you get that wrong?

They called it a SimCity rip off!!! The game is nothing like SimCity and never was at all. It was based on the Avalon Hill board game called...wait for it.... CIVILIZATION. How anyone could have made such a completely inaccurate comparison and not known where the game originated from when they are writing a review is beyond me. Did this guy never play any Avalon Hill games?? If not then why was he allowed to review anything at all?
