    Worth the money?

    Well it depends on personal opinion. For example i am an avid civ4 player because i like the simple UI and the complex and emersive gameplay. Colonization, to me, seems a lot more complicated and a lot of the things you know in civ4 do not transfer to Colonization, nor should it, its a remake...

    Future of video and computer gaming...

    I think we will see the gradual implementation of the downloadable media game, instead of the physical DVD purchase. And we will see the emergence of new controlers like the Wiimote be the next big thing in FPS games control, etc.

    City Placement Basic Tips

    So this is my conclusion so far: Food is a top priority, without it cities dont grow, GP can't be used and tiles can't be worked. Thus,Cities near rivers and flood plains are prime targets. Special resources should be sought after when placing a city. Coastal is a plus. And using hills AND...

    City Placement Basic Tips

    Power Rating

    Interesting points. Then there is a lot of margin in what the power rating says, i mean just the promotions and siege weapons can turn the tide of a battle.

    Power Rating

    Hi folks, pop'ed in for some quick questions. Should you ever declare war on a civ that has a higher power rating than you. Is the power rating a good measure of the opposition you'll face, and should you disregard it if you are confident in your ability. i'd like do hear your opinions and...

    Bias against the Americans?

    Keeping with the historical background of each civ, it would be natural that the americans have the most late UU, UB. Leaders are ok too, so could be worse.

    Cultural Domination!

    I understand. But when victory is won by peaceful but assertive means it deserves extra credit. I have the ambition of 1 day winning a game by cultural domination using flips. I have won 1 peaceful domination win but only by extreme rex' ing. Which in it's self was nice too.

    Cultural Domination!

    Yes and since it's a peaceful victory it just adds to the merit. Besides, Cultural domination is a lot more challanging that military domination. Its brains vs brawn at its best.
