You may now Pre-Load your CIV 5 Steam Install!

I want a boxed copy of the game, to place on the shelf next to all the other civ-boxes!

I used to enjoy having my boxes or cases together on the shelf. Then as the years went buy, I thought about how much money that I spent. Now I'm glad my games are mostly downloads. I have less regrets.

I have to confess... I bought both, the Steam downloadable special edition AND the boxed version at Amazon...

I was under the impression that the second clip he had loaded a save that he had started on an earlier development build, and that's why the walls were funky, but that during the first part he was using the Press build.

I am quite sure that they say that it is due to the video card overheated or something. In any case even if you are right, that means that the second part is of even earlier build that the release to press build.
