Civ III is finally out for Mac but it was well worth the wait. I had to shoot a review in to give a more balanced account of gameplay than what I am seeing here in some of the malcontents' reviews. Put it this way: if you even mildly enjoyed Civ II, you will love this game. The game features a whole new layer of playing that seems to be taken from a number of different sources... Alpha Centauri and do I detect some concepts from Master of Orion II... the Nationality feature is totally cool! And how does it look? Amazing!!! I love the new look. But forget graphics and cool features... does it play well? Well, if the lack of sleep I got last night is any indication, you can make that a definite yes. If you love Civ and are infinitely fascinated by historically-based empire-building games, you can't go wrong. Trust me.

It ism a great overall game.Certainly better than the first two parts.The graphics are very good.When your cities get really big they look great.The sound, however is a bit irritating.It is good that you can turn off the music but still the sound effects could have been better.The gamespeed is a little bit higher than it should be and by the year 2050 you rarely achieve something big.Anather flaw is that different civilizations are pretty much the same.It's as if you only change the leader's portray.Despite these flaws,Civilization 3 is a game that should be bought by any RTS fan.It is sure to bind you for hours in front of the monitor.
