Tired of ads?

Hey, howcome that poll came and went so quickly?! I miss one evening of browsing these forums, and a brand new poll I've never seen before has been closed already!!

Anyway, I wouldn't pay anything extra for a civer's edition. I want to see what the game's like, first - ToT was a desperate disappointment, so I don't want to buy a special bells-&-smells edition only to throw it away after a week or so! And if the civer's edition comes out at a later date, there's no way I'm going to throw good money away by buying the game all over again just to get a couple of pretty pictures, CD's and a cheap figurine, etc.!

THE GAME IS WHAT COUNTS!

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Hrmm... Don't get me wrong, I love the Civ series, in fact, it is one of the few games that has passed the test of time for me (sorry, I couln't resist). But I would be weary of paying more for a game that had "extas" that I already own or a figurine that would only cluter further my already small, yet quite busy apartment.

If they released both at the same time, I would have no objections (yes, that is big of me, har har) but I can honestly say I would spend my money on the the less expensive, yet just as playable version.

Above configuration is really extremely unlikely. Besides the fact that it is Microprose (not Firaxis) that own the rights for Civ-1/Civ-2, why on earth should they add so much old stuff?? And "gaming guide for all games" - my God, how much does that weigh? Ever heard of transport- and storage-fees? Yes, it can all be in PDF-format, but is it really worth the expenses? I think not.

I say; let them concentrate on Civ-3 stuff only for crying out load. Compare with "Ultimate Civilization II collectors edition" - that package included Civ-2 related stuff only. So judging from the past, it really seems most likely that any future (at least 2 years from now) "Civers edition" will also contain Civ-3 related stuff only, doesnt it?

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

I'm going to buy whichever version is sitting on the store shelf in week 1 of the UK release. If the two choices were sitting side by side on the shelf then I might well buy the special edition if it had the full Civ II/Fantastic Worlds/ToT/T-Shirt bundle just because CD's get scratched so another backup is welcome. The chances of me actually playing Civ II again if Civ III lives up to even half of our expectations is slim.
