Is it really that good? I have a downloaded copy (FOR TESTING PURPOSES ONLY) that I havent even played and its been sitting on my computer for months.
I bought and loved CivRev even if it was a gimped console version. Like loved it to 1000/1000 the achievements.
And I was a huge fan of Alpha Centurai and Civ II Network back in the day.
Woulds't thou recommend to someone who likes these games?

The last Civ game I played (aside from the Civ Rev demo, which WAS fun) was Civ 3, so I share your sentiment.
Were I capable of playing PC games at the moment, I'd spring for this. Civ is fun.

More approachable than the other Civs is what they said about Rev, and I loved the shit out of it.
I'll definitely give it a shot and buy up this package if I like it. Thanks!
@Archaotic:
CivRev is still fun. The full game. Just... not so much on PS3... from what I've read the multiplayer matchmaking is still borked.
But hey, theres some stuttering on turn end on my 360 version, so maybe both versions are imperfect.

Buy it. It really is the best in the series. It lacks Civ III's obsession with micromanagement and corruption/waste penalties, and is far more fun as a result.
There's no need to "test" it with a "downloaded copy" (whatever that means - most people I know who "test" games never actually buy them, they're just cheapskates).
It's good. Buy it.

Must I constantly image drop how much money I spend on video games? I've got a gazillion.
I don't have the money to be buying games I'll never play. I do enough of that already. A downloaded copy of something is my 'demo'. 'Testing' it is to make sure I'll like it.
