  "It sounds like a dumbing-down, but it's truly liberating" -kotaku

  Civilization V is here with some vast changes to it's UI and system.

  Particularly, the Civic/Religion portion of the game was replaced with a series of talent trees called social policies.

  Now some can argue that the social policies are "dumbed down" but after experiencing the system first hand, I can't see why anyone would want to go back. It's easier, as in, less annoying and stressful.

  My only gripe with the social policies is that they don't conflict enough. You can pretty much adopt all tree's except for one or two. It would of also been nice if they split them up between domestic and foreign affairs.

  All in all its a welcome change as it takes a backseat city development so I can focus on larger things.

  Finally bought a 360 (again)

  This is my third 360. I gave away my first one to a close friend and my second one got stolen while I was in Afghanistan. I initially wanted the 250GB bundle, but I jumped on this sweet Walmart deal before the holidays were over:

  Xbox 360 Elite
  120GB HDD
  Halo ODST
  Forza Motorsport 3
  Pure
  Lego Batman
  Windows Media Remote
  12 Months of XBL Gold
  Headset
  $50 Wal-mart Gift Card

  Total: $377 (including tax/shipping)

  

  So I guess you can say, I own all platforms now (though technically, the Wii belongs to my little bro)
