Some tabletop games at my local shop, on the PC prolly Minecraft [www.minecraft.net] most of the time (It's so addictive, it's ludicrous. Been a while since I stayed up till 6am to play with blocks xD), with a pinch of StarCraft2 and 1404AD with my friends.

Probably playing halo an awful lot, and desperately trying to get an extra seed slot on Plants vs zombies. Stupid balloon zombies messing up my loadout by making me get cactuses...

 

[SimuLord]

Civilization Revolution, as I didn't get R.U.S.E when I found out I could get Civilization 5 for less in a couple of weeks.

Can never beat it on the normal difficulty though, I need tips!

Best tip I have is that focusing on science, rushing to Combustion, and tanking the shit out of everyone before they can catch up is a very effective strategy. Also, build a Galleon and find the Lost City of Atlantis before someone else does---it's effectively a 7% boost in tech over the course of the game.

Its weird because when I play, the enemy always seems to get ahead in every tech, even when I am focusing on one tech! and if I do focus on one tech, the enemy always end up having a far superior army than me.

Is CivRev your only experience with the series? Maybe I find it so simple because I'm at least a 500-hour Civ4 veteran (and thousands more hours of the series as a whole.)

yeah, it is my first, I have been playing it for about a week on the King difficulty, but with no success. I'm getting Civ 5 because I like the genre of the game. Will Civ 5 be longer play sessions than civrev or about the same amount of time, because it seems like I advance through the era's too fast.

Civ 4 gave the option to slow the game WAY down, but as a general matter a Civ game should be able to be completed in 4-6 hours. It's not like an RPG or something.

Hi guys my first post on here, been checking these forums for awhile now and thought i'd finally become a part of the community

Anyway to the point at hand.. Just completed the redone God Of War 1 on the PS3 and am now making my way through number 2. Once I complete that i've got God of War 3 to play through aswell! Should be a very violent and gory weekend
