Best strategy game and turnbased PC game of 2005

used to play III a lot


its around here somewhere...

I hate turn based games, nothing happens :S

I never liked Civilization series nor Turn-based games...

I like to play them and talk in my head and invent crazy backstories...but i always play them alone and on easy cause i suk at RTS

i have civilization: call to power

i play it ones in a while but it's pretty hard

It's not an RTS.



I've played all of them civ games, and I loved them all. They're especially good if you're a history buff. I had an orgasm last time I played world map as the greeks and took over the world.

Although tom clancy games require much more strategy than the average FPS, I still think you would classify it as an FPS. Strategy based FPS.

RTS = starcraft, warcraft 3, etc.

Not to mention ONLY playable turn based strategy game for PC in a long time.

age of empires is an RTS...REAL TIME strategy game, CIV IV is a turn based game.

Dont forget Heroes of might and magic series =]

Still play CivII now and then

I'm acquiring civ4 now. I don't know why I didn't think of it earlier; lectures = play.

Heroes of Might and Magic Series + Civ Series + Settlers Series + Caesar Series = Favorite games.


edit: Forgot Caesar Series.

CIV4: 7th hghest rated PC game EVER on gamespot.com, surpassed only by epic games such as Diablo, Unreal Tournament, WOW, and command and conquer red alert. To add to that, 2nd best PC game ever made according to IGN: http://pc.ign.com/articles/772/772285p2.html

VIDEO REVIEW: http://www.gamespot.com/video/919352/61 ... deo-review

SCREENSHOTS:


The game is extremely tedious if you're wanting to play a very in depth experience: micro managing productions, harvests, populations, finance, diplomacy, etc.

However, it's also flexible enough to just pick what units you want to get built, pick where you want your settlers to found cities, and which units for your armies to attack. But, you won't get far on higher difficulties or truly enjoy the CIV experience playing in that fashion.

i like starcraft...

starcraft 2 looks awesome

i find some victory vids on youtube l8er
g'nite
