I don't understand the great rating on this game, this game has been pretty much the same for the past two decades, and it's definitely getting long in the tooth. Maybe because the new generation has never encountered the Civilization game in its orignal form, but the new version really has nothing better to offer but improved graphics and the system requirement that went along with it. Very disappointing, it's so boring that I have yet to take a single game to the point of worth saving a game yet before I am bored to tears and had to shut the game down. The steam engine required to play this game just plain suck as well, it's almost as bad as windows live system. Trust me, if you played the original civ, this one has really nothing great to bring to the table.
Oh, this 800 character minimum requirement is stupid as well, crappy site.
