        After having installed the game I'll start a SP game to check out the new stuff

          Lord, most of magazine and internet site reviews are written on thinner base, AFAIK. From only a few turns to a couple of full games is sadly common, added to a rework of marketing statements. Heck, quite often the reviewer keep mentioning feature not published in gold version of the game or seems unaware of serius bugs only because they show at late game.

          A honest review must be done on a clear description of game test setup, as Yin already explained.

          If Yin will say he didn't tested the MP part of the game, he can still rate the SP and we'll know his rating is not about the game in full. Fair enough, IMO.

          Reviewers are not gods, shouting rating from heavens for any weak mind of gamers' believers, but more advisors we are free to ignore or wholehearty thanks.

            Cry, because my PC won't be able play it.
            Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

              Unpack the .rar file it came in, and burn the .iso to a CD-R.


              ...What?
              I've allways wanted to play "Russ Meyer's Civilization"

                  Been there, done that.

                  But now I don't have a wife to distract me.

                    Why waste time burning, it's faster/easier to install from the HD

                        Believe it or not, I will start tutorial, if there is one. For whatever reasons I like going through the tutorial first, even if I more or less understand the dynamics of the game.
                        The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so
                        certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

                          I absolutely despized the tutorial of Civ3.

                          it was my first civ game, and if it wasnt a stuborn second try WITHOUT the stupid tips turned on, i woulda never fell in love, I bet.

                            Yes, the tutorial in Civ3 was absolutely awful.

                            But since Civ4 is aimed to conquer the "masses", I think they'll make a much better tutorial this time.

                              Yin's idea is not bad either, never done that
                              Just might try it, except the review part

                                This is exactly why I don't trust game reviews.
