    Absolutely hilarious. Fantastic marketing campaign. (Though a little late in the life-cycle, maybe?)

    Edit: Just watche the videos on the org site:

    "Gandi puts the Mmmm hot in Mahatma" :lol:

    "...You know they spoke Latin... It was.. an entire language... that they spoke"

    Seriously, I think it's funny, even if 90% of the people on the forums secretly think it hits too close to home, even if its exageratted... But no one's going to admit it...

    Civanon is not a new site. It was up before the game was released.

    may be funny for you all, but take a look outside and you see these people hate gamers cause of the addictiveness, take a look at china, korean, and england. they are setting up a "cure for video game addictiveness" and they say that "we are a disease"... I consider this video offensive to me.

    dude, this website was setup before CIV even came out. It's an advertisement. For CIV!

    And anyway, if video games are addictive, and video game addiction is a disease, then YOU are NOT the disease. You're just the carrier.

    I would like to try the CIV patch, myself. Or maybe the CIV lozenge or gum.

    Sincerely, it is not a disease, it is a vice. And one most of us here share. But I guess if we manage our vice to a healthy level it won't be a problem - but we must be careful to not cross the line.

    IMHO that "X hours of gaming per day limit" thing is worth nothing. What we have to do is to not allow gaming vice to make us not do what we want to, for example: Not going out with friends to play civ.

    I knew it was a joke, but I ran a WhoIs on it just in case.

    Take2 Games, naturally.

    Oh, by the way, I'm new here. Hi, everybody.
