Civ 4 complete is alot of game for the money, i bought it this weekend, and am loving it.
Buy civ 4 then wait and get civ 5. Every civ game is awesome, you cannot go wrong. I mean, even Civ 3 is still a fantastic game. The combat is just messed up in 3 (Theres a small chance that a spearmen will kill an M1 Abrams in that game, for example)

I generally get amazed at how unchanged (but continually addicting) the gameplay in this series is. I've pretty much played it in some form since the original.
@xnoxiousx: Civ 4 Complete can be picked up for cheap, so you might as well get it to find out if it's anything for you. I recently bought it AGAIN on Steam since they were having a sale.
I think that makes it the game I have re-bought most times, since I've already bought the original game with expansion individually AND Civ 4 Complete on disc before. :-)
Civ IV should be a steal now, can't remember how much it is on Steam. Failing that, check out some online retailers to check pricing of the boxed version.
This way, a few healthy sessions of IV will get you in the mood for V when it comes out later next month.
I'm in the mood to play some IV now. Shame it's 1:15AM...
If you can get 4 for cheap get it. It's got some different mechanics and might tide you over until Civ 5. With fewer sides and no stacking I image Civ 5 will be pretty different combat wise.
