  • Excellent, can't wait.
  • A must see... 2K has been known 2 drop the ball, so fingers crossed...
  • Well, I know several people who will be excited for this =)
  • I WANT THIS NOAW! I am so gosh darn excited for this expansion, you don't even know.

  • What we really need is a new Age of Mythology game. That game was awesome
  • nice sounds fun
  • love this game,cant wait =D

  • June 19th? I can't wait that long.
  • i enjoy Civilization but I don't have a PC powerful enough to run games so I'm stuck with ones that imitate the PC versions on my PS3

  • But the question is, can I send a tornado through my Pantheon of the Gods?

  • Pantheon? I can create my own gods?

    Dusting off my copy as I type.

  • Everyone get ready to worship Dorzo, God of Drunken Warfare. Head deity of the Brackas religion. Can't wait. This is going to be cool, and will tide me over until XCom: Enemy Unknown.
  • Bye summer.

  • Bye summer.

  • I only got into the Civilization series, Civilization V specifically about 4 months ago, but it's really fun, and I can't wait for this. It's not like the game doesn't have enough depth to it (God, if anything it's TOO complex) but these new elements will really mix up my playstyle. Being a newcomer, I don't think I can fully appreciate this, but it'll be fun to see what new strategies people will come up with.

  • this is a good opertunity to get in

  • That's crap.  I want it tonight!

  • If I had time playing computer games, I'd have played the hell out of Civilization 5, as I love the PS3 game. MY pantheon of gods would at least include the GI guys!

  • My initial dislike of the game, (I've followed the series since the original and the changes were pretty drastic) has turned into an obsessive love. My PC rarely gets used for any gaming beyond strategy and V's been in my disk tray for an awfully long time. Looking forward to this expansion as religion is one of the ideas I've missed the most with this iteration.

  • Now that I've build my MEGA computer I'm ready for Civ 5!!
