First game report Got spare money?

Just checked out the "report" down at civfanatics. Not much to report really. Just standard game reviewers fluff, only about three paragraphs of it, not saying anything.

Many of us will be "damn amateurs" in 2-3 weeks. I doubt anyone will win the 1st game they try to play!

Be nice if he would have said something substantial. This is more like a non-review.

What did he like most about it? What did he like least? And why?
What surprised you most about it? These are the kinds of things that should be discussed in a review.

We need a real reviewer to do a real review.

Well the fact that he had to print the manual is a bad omen for the DVD-case version.

They got pre-releases from Firaxis/Infograms, but have an agreement that they will not post a review until Oct. 22nd. This is mentioned later in that thread. We'll probably see a lot of reviews all over the web in a little over a week.

There is a post somewhere around here about the manual that comes with Civ III. It sounded like a REAL manual is included. They probably just weren't available yet for the media pre-release so they sent them an electronic version of the manual instead.
