Civilization IV

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

I picked up a really nice leatherbound Civilization boxset from EB last week.

It has all of the Civilization games including expansions (except Warlords), all the tech charts etc, a special edition Civilization card game, a 100 page book talking all about the series and the people who make it and a video dvd full of documentaries, interviews etc...

A must-get for Civilization fans.

I loved civ 2, but could not get into the newer games, I dont know why, just loved the second one ever played it?

The game I am looking foward to getting when it comes out is starcraft 2. Starcraft 1 was the BEST RTS game EVER even after 9 years people still rate the first one so highly, and its only just been surpassed in numbers of people that play it online (DAMN WORLD OF WAR CRAFT) lol.

But yeah what other games are you guys into, I love lots.
 
I have never played Lots but like i got into Doom (all of them) and also the Star Wars games are quite good (especially Battlefront). Shoot 'em ups for me.

His GF gave him an ultimatum, he had to choose: it was her or WOW.

He picked WOW.

You serious? Is your friend under 12? World of Warcraft is addictive but compared to a woman - c'mon - what is happening to the male species? Our future generations are going to have DVD-R above the upper lip and heads with a scroll bar for a nose if we dont be careful.

Thankfully I retired before the expac. It was getting boring, I didn't have the time and I hated the way the game was going, especially the class I was playing.

Civ II is still the best in the series, I can play it for hours, can't get into civ IV

I think the maps are better, exploring and growing

For shooting games, no one can go past, halo, counterstrike or the old perfect dark on the nintendo 64 :D :thumbsu:

Apparently in Korea they have massive televised Starcraft tournaments?
 
CIV IV is an insane game. Have played all of them + expansions since number 2.

Civilization 2 was a brilliant game, the series has gone downhill since then though. For some reason, even though I was addicted to Civ 2, I've never been able to even finish a game of Civ III or IV. :(
 
Just bought Civ compilation pack so I'll compare all of the games.

Looking forward to the Aussies vs Japs in expansion pack from Civ II from memory :thumbsu:
 
I got Civ IV (the only civ I've ever played) and it's one of these games where you can't play it because you get hooked into a game for far too long. I also....acquired...the expansion pack which apart from a few new civs I have't really seen any difference yet. I haven't actually played it much because it's too time consuming and have only played on easy difficulties. I got a mod which is a giant map of the real world which is pretty awesome, except that you can't choose your leader. I have a game currently as the Celtic empire and it's pretty tricky starting in the crowded area near all the European civilizations (German, Greek, Roman, French and even more). Btw you start in around France not the british iles as others may think. Hopefully the Celts shall discover Australia.
 
What level does everybody play on? I am playing on Warlord but am relatively new to the game but can already see the difference between the lower two levels in the aggressiveness of the other empires. Everyone is so pissed off. I dont want to even consider how tough Deity is. Probably declare war on you for not trading rice. Though, the tougher levels are a lot more enjoyable and am sure you will improve your strategies under the pressure than you would on the easier level where everybody just want to live in peace
