I think its a case that certain games play best on certain formats. I also think that if I had not played the PC version or the DS version I would have thought the xbox 360 version was great.....

Civ 2 was my first (I then went back and played Civ 1). Have played every version since then. My favourite has to be Alpha Centuari, as I loved the way you could construct your own units. I actually quite like the DS version, I have tried the Xbox 360 version and Im not too keen on it...

I have played at most of the level, but now im at a stage at looking as what civs I have not won under x condition. I used to play Civ on the PC (every edition + AC) I find the DS version different. I would not say harder or easier just different. The bit I like about the DS version is...

Been playing the DS version on an off now for a while. Seems to me if you can be the first to get to Knight, you can just go matching across the map smashing everyone in sight? Has anyone had the same experience? Also I found the if you play to conquer the capitals, if you save just...

Played civ on and off since the origianl Civ (even played it on amiga) Couple of things that im not sure of due to lack of detailed manual. 1) No senible way to dispand units.? 2) No easy way of seeing what forfied units you have in any city? (You seem to have to activate units before...

I think the way to test the passive route would be to set up a checker board game (Pre place cities alternate with your enemy, with no space to set up new cities) and see how the game pans out. If you remove the rex (no space to develop), what works better a war machine, or a passive...

The idea really came from the concept, that war is bad. You are taking resources and piling them in to military units, in addition while your in conflict with someone you cant be building your empire (all your effort goes into your war effort). So if the land allowed for it grab as much...

Its taken a few games, but Im starting to see how things work with civ4. I used to play civ 1,2 and 3 quite a lot, but 4 always seemed to throw me. From my few games this time around (Bought it when it first came out, but my laptop just would not run it as playable) Anyway this is how I...

So the my concept is sort of sound then city 1(Worker, worker, settler, warrior (for city 1), Warrior (for city 2), warrior (for city 3)) City 2 (gets warrior from city 1, worker, worker, Settler, Warrior (for city 4)) City 3 (gets warrior from city 1, worker, worker, Settler, Warrior...

Finally got a computer that would play civ4, so I went out and got the complete version. WOW. Now I have falling into the trap of many civ 3 players coming to 4 for the first time (Not building workers straight away). I don't get time to play often (maybe once a week) so im looking for...

I posted this in RON Heaven but the forums over there are dead. I used to play RON quite a lot, as I felt it played better then AOE2 (My poor machine wont have AOE3 etc... so dont go there) I decided to boot it up again the other day and play the cold war game (for some reason I had never...

The free server thang is great. But don't you have to buy wow in the first place, and I have a intel embedded grx lappy with just a single processor and 768mb ram. Wont wow suck on that config.

That critism could be leveled at any game. What is true is that for instance the more the mine the better you get at it, and with practice you can mine for better rocks. But that a side, you don't have to play it in that way, whats quite good is just having a ramble around doing odd quests as...

Its funny, I used to play this a while ago, and in fact I had a members account. Then like with most games you go through a patch where you get bored, and you off and do something else. Anyway due to a thread on here, I found myself thinking about the game, and I went back for a quick...

So rather then doing the killing themselves, they have to just watch?
