a good game, but I must say I'm a little dissapointed

User Rating: 7 | Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution X360
By Habast | Review Date:
Civ Rev is a very good game, and much better for the casual gamer than previous civs, but I found it lacking in the strategy portion of the game.

The Good
*Easy, quick running interfaces
*Variety of civs
*Good ol' civ feel
*Doesn't take too long to play a game
*Cool civilization bonuses
*Barbarians are more interesting to fight
*Armies

The Bad
*More cut and dry with less strategy
*The scenario battles aren't fun
*No custom maps
*Rome is purple (i like red better :) lol)
*Ages advance to quickly
*Way too cartoony of graphics

The Just Plain Ugly
*The same problem with previous installments, ancient age is fastest when it should be the longest

Gameplay: Solid, (8)
Graphics: Too cartoony, (5)
Sound: High quality, (7.5)
Story: Me conquering the world is always a good story. (8)
Re-playability: Sadly, not very high. Considering that it's a Civ game. (7.5)
Overall: (7.2)

In the end its a good game, but not as strategically demanding as previous civilizations.
