New Games on the Horizon

I figured I'd start to shift away from only discussing the game Battlefield 2, as my play time has been greatly diminished. I'm going to begin discussing more about games and gaming in general. Namely, new game releases and general gaming news that interests me and my readers. So be sure to let me know in the comments what you like and don't like and want to see more or less of.

For now, here's a link to a Civilization IV review from Gamespot, which I'm mulling over as my next game purchase. Not quite sure I'll enjoy it though. What do you think of the Civ series, and strategy games in general?

And for those of you who have already purchased the game, check out Civilization IV Official Strategy Guide (Official Strategy Guides (Bradygames))
