Yeah, but Civilization is under Firaxis and Atari's umbrella.

If Microprose shut down, then more importantly, no more X-com?-jay

Civilization is still chugging along. It just got passed on. It's still great.

Well, I never really liked the civilization series. It was way too... civilized. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Nah, JK, but all that confusing stuff about government and everthing got to my head.

Civilization has a pretty steep learning curve, so it takes a little while to figure stuff like the governments out (it helps to read strategy guides). It took me three games (Civilization 3) to win for the first time. Doesn't sound too bad, but each game took about six hours.
