Civilization III

The graphics are much better in III than in II, which makes the game much more interesting. Can set and play for hours before you realize you should be doing other things!!
Unfortunately in these particular ads, CivIII is not listed as XP compatible. Is this why I have problems?
The time line seems to move much faster than in the other Civ games, which is a GOOD thing.!

Easily the best game ever

...It has to be noted that a lot of the gripes that people have, such as corruption, AI-to-AI tech trading and difficulty, can be changed in the editor that ships with the game. It should also be noted that the in-box game version is 1.07f; there is a 10MB patch available, taking the version up to 1.29f, that also fixes a lot of issues. So buy this game and download the patch.

...So don't be put off by all the negative comments; a lot of these people clearly have no idea what they're talking about. ...This is a superb game, and the customisable aspects will keep you playing and modding for a very long time.

Awesome

This game is pretty good but could use a little more game play its too much like the first in my opinion.

*** Warning: Very Addictive ***

I played Civ I years ago and was afraid to get Civ II (I just did not have the time to waste). Civ III is the most addictive game I have ever played. (...)

If you love strategy games buy this ASAP.

Terrible Game: DO NOT BUY!!!

If you are having any doubts about whether you will like this game or not, do not buy it. It is needlessly complex, boring as hell, and gives slow a new meaning. I bought it based on CGM's game of the year award on the box. I thought it would be cool. Boy, was I mistaken. The game has no linear plot. You set up the scenarios that you want to play.

I can't think of one good reason to buy this.

The games best features are merely mediocre when compared with others in this genre.

The game's worst features are too numerous to name. Bad graphics, repetitive gameplay, sheer lack of anything resembling entertainment.

I would have gotten more enjoyment from burning the fifty dollars I paid for this game. If you want a good strategy game, pick up one of the Age of Empire's games.

Wow!

Civilization III really blew this time!!! Amazing graphics, real leaders and very addictive. If you like Age of Empires or Empire Earth, you'll love this game. Way to go, Firaxis.

Awsome. I don't like that it is based on turns, but otherwise I would highly recommend it. Good graphics

I agree with Nick. Civ II is much better.
