GAMESPY STRATEGY GAME oF THE YEAR!

[shyaway]

hmmm?

i won't bash anyone =)
but i'd like to point out that... regardless of it being tedious starting half way thru the game, it's still a great game

and w/ that but, there's another but!
how can any TBS/RTS like this exclude a group control?

yes, it'd been mentioned many many times, and i'll mention it again, LoL

FYI, i've played many games, yet quit them all just b4 i am getting into modern age. it's just too much to handle to having to move 1 unit at a time when i have a 100 workers, and a 100 military units...

*thinks about playing MOO or Master of Magic*
ah heck, can't play 'em, win2k won't allow playing anything in DOS

anyways, Civ3 gets a 6/10 from me
if the tedium was to be removed... 10/10

---edit---
changed TBS to RTS
don't know how i typed TBS when i meant RTS, LoL
-----------

---edit round 2---
okay, i meant TBS/RTS, not only RTS
just don't ask what i was thinking, hehe

The rave reviews are exactly why I won't trust another one, ever. Civ3 is a game unfinished, period.

This is the last time I spend 50 bucks blindly (due to having Firaxis on the box, and SMAC one of my fav games of all time, I bought it the first day it came out). Suppose I needed a lesson in great marketing/unfinished game design.

Great game the first fifty to hundred turns, late game just plain sucks.

Sorry if the whine offends some, it needs to be said.

Fifty bucks, good Lord what did I do
