TURN-BASED ANCIENT-WARE!!! BEWARE!!!! Before PCs had the horsepower to deliver a real gaming experience, turn-based games were a handicapped alternative. Sure, it's more like a board game such as Risk. If you want THAT, play a board game with friends. This is frustrating, boring, and lacks everything modern gamers expect. Don't waste your money. Buy instead: Age of Mythology (Titans), Age of Empires II (Conquests), Warcraft III, or even the fun-ware Medieval Conquest, which is brand new, glorious 3D rendered, and only $20 bucks, or Sim City 4 for an alternative experience. In comparison, I wonder why anyone would finance a turn-based game nowadays. Since it has gotten such rave reviews, I thought I would give Civ 3 a try, although I turned down the original Civilization for the same reason. Turn-based games are like 5.25 floppy disks. So yesterday, totally like Q-Bert or Pac-Man. I installed Civ 3 one night, removed it the next. I'll either give it away, or throw it in the trash as money wasted. Get with the times, Sid. Turn-based is like a *real* modern game in stop motion, with little interest. BORING!!!! Very disappointed gamer. Beware!!!
