  • Civ 3 Box

    If this is the Civ 3 box, it looks much better than the ctp2 box. I bellieve it outlines civ 3 pretty well. What do you all think?

    The box looks pretty cool but I can't really make out the background. Does anybody know what the pictures in the background are?
    However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true? On the other hand, is it really so difficult simply to accept everything that one has been brought up on and that has gradually struck deep roots – what is considered truth in the circle of moreover, really comforts and elevates man? Is that more difficult than to strike new paths, fighting the habitual, experiencing the insecurity of independence and the frequent wavering of one’s feelings and even one’s conscience, proceeding often without any consolation, but ever with the eternal goal of the true, the beautiful, and the good? - F.N.

        This site's been up for at least a few days; it was even mentioned in another thread. I hope that this isn't the giant new official website that Firaxis Dan promised.

          Naw, this can't possibly be the box they are going to use. After all the hoopla about advanced trade and diplomacy, why put an Ancient Roman equivalent of the WTF on the cover? Makes no sense. Remember:



          ...or...



          Those show the concept of advancing through the ages toward a kind of interrelated global village concept. What does this show?:



          Naw. That ain't no real box cover. Those jokers!

            its very simple and elegant, I like it.

            however it doesn't seem to catch the "going through the ages" all that well does it?

              C'mon! It looks like my aunt's coffee table for crying out loud!

                no, its good

                simple, straight forward, yet interesting aswell.

                it has a more seriousness look of it to, compared to the previous ones.

                  you mean, those confusing patterns outline the general confusion and lack of info surrounding civ 3?

                    It's a bleeding box. You don't buy the damn game and stare at the box for hours on end and sleepless nights, so stop *****ing about it.

                          No offense to anyone but civilization must have the worst covers in all of computer gaming. I'm talking about civ 1 and the proposed civ 3 (not sure what to make of civ 2). I think we need something more catchy and more sophisticated. Maybe it's just me but having a simple design for Civilization is just lame (don't get me started on how much I hate civ 1's box--not worthy for one of the best games of all time).

                            I think it reflects well the point that nothing can sell Civ III better than "Sid Meier's Civilisation III" displayed prominently on a neutral background. It is one of the best known brand name in the history of computer games.
                            To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection.

                              Yeah, that's been on the Infogrames site for at least a couple of days. I just didn't mention it because I didn't realise we didn't know about the specs yet. I guess that's what happens when I don't spend much time in here anymore.
