Does the name 'Ultimate Civilization' sound like a good name for Civ4? (Time out:0 days after 05-04-2002, 10:42)
AWESOME!!!
I like it! It sounds soooo majestic!
WHAAAAAAT!!! Are you nuts?!!!
No way, man! Changing names would be too confusing!
I can think of a better name! (If so, tell us!)
Frankly my fellow civvers, I don't give a damn!
Any name that has 'Banana' in it is fine with me!

An alternative name for Civ4? Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

In the process of creating another thread in this forum, an idea went through my head. I thought of an alternative name for Civ4! Instead of calling it Civilization IV, why not call it 'Ultimate Civilization'. I think the name sounds very majestic and awesome and would make Civ4 stand out from all the rest! What do you think?

Why not "eXtreme Civ"? Or "Episode IV"?

Tired of ads?

May be we can chose between choice like:
"This Time Not Rushed Civilization"
"Sim Civ, from the designer better know for his Sim Golf serie"
"A massive multiplayer Civ as you never saw since... well, as you never saw"
"Civ IV public beta"
"RoN - Rise of civilizatioN"
"Civ four the Cashcow"
"X-Civ for X-Box (X-rated with nude Cleopatra, Elizabeth, Joanne D'Arc - parental locking available)"
"CivilizApolyton" - already mentioned above with different words
"UnCivilization" - a prequel to the Civilization serie
"Oh, no! More Civilization" - with forced automated workers as smart as Lemmings wandering around brainless
"Another Civ 4 You"

Ok, more pun than enough, I suppose (if any survive to my raw english).

Just Kidding, Of Course
Oh, I forgot mine preferred:
"Civ IV? No thanks, I'm trying to quit"

I can already visualize the new box:

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

OK I look at some of the above suggestions and see some intersting abreviations:

From Ixnai - Sid Meier's Ultimate Civilization - SMUC (what is this a sucky version of SMAC)

From Thinker - EXTreme Civilization - EXTC (an addictive game that turns you into a drooling idiot, making whoopy with any Civ you make contact with)

Course Ultimate Civilization! becomes UC! (Probably the sound most people will make)

Course my own preference is:

Sid Meier's Civ4
Subtitled "With this release I can finally finish my throne room"
