    I'm a huge Civilization fan, so I not going to go into a too lengthy and possible bias review. Yet I will give my piece of praise to this installation of the series. First off, it's a great game for those with little to no experience in turn-based strategy games, owning to simple controls and a huge in-game information resource. Second, I love the graphics. Dynamic cities, easy to understand armies, and dancing bears (yup, you read that right). Finally, for us who have played Sid Meier's previous games, this game has surprising depth. I was worried that too many game mechanics would be cut from the computer version, to dumb the game down for the masses. However, this is not the case. The game features most of it's bigger brother mechanics, while simplifying others to make the game run smoother. Civ: Revolution is a great example to other game companies on how to bring strategy games to the consoles.
