    Strictly speaking, 2KGames did not make the Mac port of Civ4/Warlords, but Aspyr Games. Certainly 2KGames had to approve it being made, but I suspect Aspyr had more to do with deciding not to do BtS than 2KGames.

    It's entirely possible they could decide to do Col, deciding it has a bigger user base, but it would probably be more work for them also...

      I concur.

      Indeed. My personal feeling is that Civ4Col will not be ported to the Mac, but I would be happy to be proven wrong in this case.

        Well, my feeling is looking to be wrong.

          As can be seen, the most notable difference between the two is that the European box emphasizes that CivIV is not required to play given Civ4Col's "stand-alone expansion" status. Another difference is the respective rating continental agencies for games gave the title: in America it's rated for those aged 10 and over while in Europe it's 12 and over.

            They are oddities, but the first one in particular strikes me as .

              Actually, it seemed to me that the American version would be more likely to give it a more "adult" rating due to tobacco.

              Perhaps the Euros are more worried about the effects of glorifying genocide, slavery, and colonial wars?

              Naah. It's the tobacco.
