I'll wait for demo before I buy this. The Lord of the Rings RTS was a joke.

Nice, i even really enjoyed Civ 2 on the PS1. I remember playing that game for hours, the load times were terrible too.

I was actually playing civ1 the other day on PC...I will definitely be getting this one. Sid makes the best RTS's. I believe civ1 has become freeware online, found a site that had it the other day. Even if I still had my copy of civ1 I wouldn't have the 5.1 Floppy to install it.

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
