This is one of my favorite games in the world, i am in my 20s and still play this game. it is so time consuming and fun that i go to sleep thinking of it after playing for hours. Sid Meier is a genius. i have a ps2 and play that as well but Alpha Centauri and Civilization are still the most fun.

ultimate world domination strategy game

Sid Meyers is a god, and this is his best game so far. If you liked CIV 1 or 2, go ahead and get this one... I've spent many wasted hours on this game.

Buy Civ1 or Civ2 NOT Civ3

Hi,
Civ3, pretty pictures; unplayable, ties up CD player,
slooooooow, lousy contrast on screen, not worth $5,
not worth shipping,

Best computer Game I have ever played

This is a game that gives complete satisfaction to the stratigic game fan, I reccomend it to all ages. even if you are not a stratigic game fan, I still reccomend it. I have played Civilization 2, Civ III leaves it way behind! It rarely ever crashes on me, just save early and often!

Don't Bother...

This game offers nothing new or interesting to the genre... It is Civ II in 3D, except with a few additional annoyances like "strategic" resources.

Alpha Centauri is a far better game... Civilization:Call to Power is infinitely more fun.

If you must play this game out of loyalty to the series I understand, but don't pay 49.95... Get it for half price over on eBay... I'll have my copy up on there in a few minutes...

Civilization 3 stinks

I purchased civilization thinking it was a good game. Whatever anybody tells you, It STINKS! It was a bomb! Civ. 2 was far better. It's not worth it in any account.

A Classic

I am glad to see that Civilization boiled down the basics of a great game and made a superb empire building game. Having played Civilization 2, I was a little worried that I'd be stuck micromanaging my empire with trade routes and trying to figure out how taxes and food all went together.

They've streamlined the interface and made the game run smoothly. It is very hard to step away from. I also like the online help.

I wish they would've put more movies in (like Call to Power) and show the histographs of how your civilization is fairing in the middle of the game. I also wish other civs would respect your boundaries as much as they want you to respect theirs.

Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend anyone wanting an addictive empire building game to purchase Civ 3.

This has got to be the funnest and most addictive game i have ever played. My cousin is the reason i bought this game. he got it for Christmas and i played it a little and loved it. his dad who is picky about his video games played this from about 8pm to 3am.

Part of a Disappointing Pattern

I was a fan of the old Master of Orion game and like many others waited months for a promised improved version to come out. Never happened. Instead a superficially similar game, Master of Antares, emerged, twice as glitzy and sophisticated as MOO but not as interesting. I feel the same way about Civ III. I was hoping for something to extend the playability of Civ II, but it's just not the same. I still play Civ II while my copy of Civ III sits on the shelf.

Still, both Master of Antares and Civ III are very good games, especially if you didn't play their predecessors.
