Stick to 4.

my kids really liked revolution, which would they prefer of 5 and 4?

Stick to 4.

I've played way too much of 4 so I'm done with that game for a while. Late game in civ 4 was unbearable at times because of insane unit stacks. I was waiting for the expansion but Civ 5 was on sale so I just picked it up anyway.

 

[eznark]

5 (that's not an indictment, it's a good game but it falls apart if you're into strategy games or play it a lot)

I don't want to expand because it's fine until you start to notice the issues, which then break the game completely.

 

[ph33nix]

Civ 5 is great, such a time eater, but did they ever fix the issues in later-game situations where the time to load between turns was like minutes?

 

[eznark]

It was improved but it's not really possible to "fix."

I'm probably too harsh on Civ V. It's perfect for people who don't play deep strategy games.

 

[levious]

cool thanks ez

 

[Sokantish]

I liked Civ 5 more than 4. I do miss Spock though. I really liked 2, skipped 3. I also played Civilization: Call to Power. That one was kind of strange. I probably spent the most time playing 4. Stealing techs from friends online was one of the best things. Religion was kind of dumb in 4 though, hopefully it's better in the expansion for 5

What are these bonuses? I guess the players are players in their prime inserted into the game, but what do the coaches do?

eznark agrees

 

[DMczaf]

We need to find another racing game. I miss Rallisport 2 and FMT flying off cliffs.

Dirt 3 Steam?

 

[Nightz]

Burnout Paradise

Spoiler

lulz

 

[Rorschach]

Oh, they're Ultimate Team cards... I should have known.

[edit]lol @ BO Paradise. I blame the game, though. That game is more of an errand running game than a racing game.

 

[eznark]

That motor storm RC game is the best racing game of this gen.

 

[TheDrizzlerJ11]

Highly recommend Forza 4

I tried to get your attention earlier today but you ignored me. Sure that can work. I'm playing with some friends from work and 4 player co-op is awesome.
