This game should not be on consoles

User Rating: 6.5 | Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution PS3
OK I'll admit it I'm biased. I have been a massive fan of civilization since number 2. This will in fact read more like a blog than a review, I have blogged about this thing before.
Fist of all this is a good game the graphics are clean and sharp and it is a little too cartoony for my personal liking but that is the style it is trying to pull off and it does it well.
The gameplay is where it starts to fall down. This is essentially Civilization : lite and it will leave civ fans with a bitter taste in the end.
For these reasons:
1) Appealing to the more casual and limitations of the consoles have stripped back any depth
2)AI opponents are not numerous enough 4 opponents is not enough, fair enough they wanted to keep it quick but that's not why civ fans play
3) Controls are passable but once again it has been done much better with a keyboard and mouse
This will be the only time I purchase a Turn based strategy game like civilization on a console
