Gamespot Video Interview

[Verenti]

Its kinda old, but I've grabing information from it.

Anyone notice yet that one of the leaders of the Mali was Mansa Musa (Oh how shocking uncommon that is!) and one of the Persian's leaders was Cyrus.

At another point in the video it looks like it has the First Emperor of Qin and Mao Tse Sung at the same time, Queen Elizbeth and an Mesoamerican (Incan?) with two names, one really long, one short begining with C. There is also a state of war between the two Chinese?

If this is old information then, sorry for wasting your time.

You got to take screen captures of the video to see this though.

Yes, and yes.

Yep. Yes, yes... and yes.

Who cares if it's old?
We're Civ addicts, any little piece of old information is welcome.

Keep posting this old stuff.

Apparently, big cities still look like they have only ten inhabitants...

Thanks a lot, Verenti, for my daily dose!

[Verenti]

Ah... I didn't do that much, just pointed out Gamespot's old coverage.

You might also notice in the video the city production screen in there:

Notice the words "Habour" (maybe without the u?) and "Worker"

And I think there was another screen about trade. I can't quite make out the words, I think one of them was grain.

Thanks for all the praise

Edit: You have to blow the picture up with PSP or somthing to see it.

Intersting... Btw, I don't know how to capture screens from video. All I get is a black screen.

[Verenti]

Use FRAPS. Its free(requiring a donation for higher functions) and its great for getting screen caps from videos and games.

[Aro]

This is what I can read:
1-
2- Galley
3- Harbor
4-
5-Worker.

[Verenti]

I think its
1- Forbidden City
2- Galley
3- Harbor
4- (A military unit)
5- Worker

[Aro]

Boy, look at us... begging for any tiny piece of information, grabbing every little crumb, and sniffing and snorting around the dirt, just like a dog…We're pathetic!

But we’re happy.
