Civilization IV Released

Now, I am truly feeling the effects of poverty. O! how I long for Sid Meier's Civilization IV, available for purchase as of yesterday. I know it will be a sweet game, folks. IGN rated it 9.4 out of 10, and the screenshots are dazzling.

Perhaps the most incredible aspect of the Civilization series its lasting appeal (IGN agrees). Just a few months ago, I was playing Civilization III to the point of near-obsession, if not beyond. It was released in October 2001, and I was the proud owner of a copy soon thereafter. So, even if Civ 4 isn't the greatest game ever, it may be the best $50 I ever spend.
