    I'm thinking about buying Civilization. But I've read that "real" Civ ended on IV part. Which one should I buy?

    I'd say go with 5, people moan about it for no apparent reason IMO, its a good game. The combat is much better. And the new gods and kings stuff adds religion if you like that sort of thing.

    I wouldn't say 'for no apparent reason'; I've explained my personal issues with it. I'd say it rather depends on how you play the game if certain things about it are going to bug you.

    It bugs me but there are enough good things about it that I still feel the urge to play it.

    Jon Shafer looks back at Civ V,and the decisions he made:

    Quite interesting. The more I've been playing I've started to come to similar conclusions. Makes his new game At The Gates sound like it should be keeping an eye out for.

    I really dont like the way you cant stack units on Civ 5 and the lack of religion etc without the expansion. I think Civ 4 is better although Civ 1 is the greatest of them all.

    5 is the best place to start though as the tutorials are much better than any other version

    Trials Evolution

    From the front page.



    2K has announced the second expansion for Civilization 5.

    It's called Brave New World, is developed by Firaxis Games and is due out on the PC and Mac this summer.

    Brave New World introduces nine new civilizations, each with new unique units and builders. There are new leaders, too, including Casimir III of Poland.

    A new Culture Victory condition has been added. To this end you can use Great Artists, Writers and Musicians to create masterpieces. To win a Culture Victory you need to become the first civilization with a majority influence in all other civilizations.

    Also new is World Congress, which votes on issues such as trade sanctions against rogue nations. Firaxis said you'll be able to influence "game-changing resolutions". "A new lead into the Diplomatic Victory ensures that the end of the game will be more dynamic than ever before."

    Elsewhere, there's new International Trade Routes, eight new wonders, including the Parthenon, Broadway and the Uffizi, and two new scenarios: War Between the States (fight the American Civil War from either the Union or Confederate side), and Scramble for Africa.

    "After adding a number of great new features to Civilization 5 with the Gods & Kings expansion, the team continued to search for ways to create even more exciting gameplay through new systems and features," said Civilization creator Sid Meier.

    "We're happy to bring our fans another ambitious expansion that will provide hours and hours of new Civilization experiences."

    Sounds tasty. If this can do for the mid-late game what God and Kings did for the early-mid then I'm going to be a happy camper.

    Well it is nice to see he acknowledges the blunders he made on the Civ franchise.
