MarkG's review on CTP last year was pretty much spot on. He highlighted the good about CTP but also mentioned some faults of the game ie Diplomacy. How are you going to convince us that your review will be more balanced than MarkG's review? I'm betting your review will be nothing more than a whole list of nitpicking points that doesn't even attempt to highlight the GOOD points of CTP2.

Here is my my new equation I am currently hypothesizing. Anyone care to review it?
MarkG's review + Darth's review = really balanced review?

I agree than any review by Mark would probably be some more unpaid Activision advertising. I would rather have a skeptic review the game then someone wearing rose colored glasses. I personally think this game is rushed just like CTP1, but if I am wrong I will gladly eat crow, and I think Darth has the integrity to do the same.

I will be reading everyone's review. The more that review it the better (for me anyway). If a lot of people list the same flaws, then those flaws are probably real. I'm am always skeptical of those who review products, having received those products to review for free. If you want to be a reliable reviewer, pay you $50 and but it. Then if you say good, bad or ugly things, I will listen. There are always exceptions. Some people can receive 'free' products to review and still list the uglies as well as the goods. So, like many of you, I will compare Mark review with those submitted by others. No matter how good the game is as a Human vs AI, I'm waiting for the patch with Hot Seat. Without it, I'll only read about the game. I prefer to play with and against the family and friends in Hot Seat than against some programmed AI.

Hotseat is lame and pbem is too slow
everybody has 2 computers these days so the only way to play this game is LAN. once you start playing it LAN you will never play it any other way.

I'll read your review, and probably give it a bit of thought, but don't give us that crap.

Once again, MidKnight hits the nail squarely on the head.
Here' some poetry that I think fits well with the rest of this rhetoric.
When they first saw you Veda,
You had fire in your eyes.
But when they read your comments Veda,
They ate you with their fries!
You'll have to go to MKL's site for some good prose.
(Actually, I think that Veda is really MarkG's alter ego. He's more machine than man, now; created to raise Apolyton ratings).
