What with Steam being released on mac, i figured i should make use of it... Portal is already downloading free, but i just bought Civ IV and all the expansions. Now, i've never played Civ before, but it's always appealed to me, so i'm looking forward to losing a lot of time with the game (which i better be able to run on full settings >_>). So, does anyone else here play (or used to play) Civ? Any tips for a Civ n00b like me?

I meant to buy one of these ever since Civ 2 was released. Never got around to it though. Have no excuse really considering that they were always released for Mac as well.

The complete one with all the expansions was ?18 on Steam for mac... Probably more than it costs in store, but i don't really care... Just got to wait for it too download now >_> Looks fun though, and if i like it i may have to get Civ V when that is released on mac, which is also confirmed...

I heard Civ 4 was a difficult one to start with, but I hope you enjoy them. the Civ games are brilliant.

I heard that too, but i don't wanna buy an older one than this tbh, II and III weren't meant to be that great (or so i hear) and i don't want to be put off what looks like a great game... I'll take the time to do the tutorials for once, before starting a massive game I'm a big fan of strategy games, so hopefully all will be good in the end ^_^

ive played civ 4 for a while and its great fun! there is an instructive tutorial and everything but its not dead-hard to get into. getting in wars though, is difficult... THE SPANISH DESTROYED MY CAPITAL!!! anyways, civ IV is great fun and i really recommend it. as for making choices, theres always "sids choice" or similiar thats marked in blue which recommends techology to develope, places to start a city. the city management can also be set on auto production or auto growth.

I also recommend Civilization Revolution for PS3. It's much simpler than the normal Civ games, but much faster paced and more relaxing. If I feel like playing casually, I play Revolution instead of Civ 4.

But i have Civ IV, beyond The Sword, Colonization and Warlords, which i got for like ?15... So plenty to last a very long time lol. Also, i just destroyed Napoleon. Take that you frog.
