New Screens at GameSpot

I find it really neat on that UN screenshot: if you look at the flags, they are the in-game flags rather than the ones from today's world. For example, the French one is the Fleur-de-Lys (like it is in the game), rather than today's tricolor.

That's the kind of attention to detail that I like

Yeah, that's nice. Though I bet the flags are hardcoded in the video (i.e. you'd see that French flag even if the French weren't playing, or if you changed the game's flag graphics).

The only alternative for not hardcoding videos would be in-engine cut scenes, but that can be accomplished with high-end engines of FPS games, not Civ4 .

Blocked at work? I guess no one of you guys is European... just coming home drunk from watching football qualification matches in a pub... (and Germany winning luckily a mediocre friendship match versus China).... really nice screens! Have a good night everyone in my time zone and g'day to everyone else... soon enough (24th Octobre) there won't be any major differences in our sleeping times any more anyway... :-)
