Video Games Nerd alert...CIV 5 coming out on Sept 21...

FYI, there's a flash sale going on right now...Civ V Gold Edition for 75% off, and Brave New World for 33% off. If you buy both, it comes out to just a bit over $30. I didn't own any of it before, and now I own it all!

Yeah I'm hoping brave new world will pop lower at some point.

Maybe if you're willing to wait a while. Today is the release day for the expansion in a lot of places internationally, so I don't imagine that they'll reduce the price beyond what they are right now for quite some time.

Has anybody tried playing Endless Space? I just started and read through the tutorial - seems like a Civ Lite in space. Pretty intriguing, TBH.

I've gotten a bit further in Brave New World. Being able to Send a Spy to another Civ as a Diplomat is a great idea.

Finally had two Civs team up to DoW on me. Arabia brought a good amount of units, and it seemed like they went after my Luxuries, took an unhappiness hit for a few turns till I could get a worker to fix the tile.

I am second in score, but getting my butt kicked in culture by a few Civs. Chine is cranking out the tourism and has a lot of the wonders. I will have to conquer them soon.

I have produced a few great Works. (Writing, Music, and Painting). I'm enjoying this new aspect.

Founded an ideology for the first time.

There are a lot of different traits to choose from.

And the unhappiness hit you take if a different ideology is winning the culture war can me massive. I am taking a -14 happiness for having freedom instead of France's Order.

Well, now it is. I already saw Civ V Gold go on sale again for a short period, and I'm thinking that there's a chance BNW will go on sale again too before Steam's event ends. You'll just have to keep your eyes peeled.
