On the idea of religion and morality: Point #1 Religion gives people consequence to their actions (at least when people act in accordance with their Religion). Even when no one is looking, there is an accountability outside oneself. Although, religious people can still do wrong, they still are...

I don't think so. They have been dragging their feet on this for a long, long, long time now. In fact, it has been so ridiculously long, that I'm really starting to think they are not interested at all in the US market for the Gold edition. If they wanted to sell in the US, they would have done...

....and after all that, still no answer to my question. Although we have successfully taught a total n00b the difference between the words "gold" and "complete", I'm still curious if anyone think of any reason why the import would be different, or wouldn't work in the United States? Aside from...

So from what I've seen, Civ 4: Complete edition is not sold in the United States. However, I have found the Australian version sold as an import at an online game store. I'm assuming there would be no difference between an Australian and US version of Civ 4, however I thought I might check here...

You couldn't be more wrong - Some people do want to hear complaints. People choosing whether or not to buy the game for example. They have a right to know the FULL story, complaints and all. Do you disagree? Or do you prefer selective consumer information? This is why I think it's also...

This quote reeks of amateur writing. Look at PC Gamer magaine. They always give buggy games a low score (Although I have no idea how they rated Civ4 yet). The reason? Their philosophy is that they review the game they have. Not the game they WISH they had. To review a game assuming a patch...

Shaggyofwv - your comments demanding that people stop complaining are most unwelcome. This is not your forum. You have not paid for it. You are not the king. If you don't like it here, by all means, find a new forum. If people have valid complaints, they can and should post them. Also...
