Civilization V: Gods & Kings dev chat introduces the expansion's new civilizations

civ_v_gods

Civilization V's first expansion is out next week. Gods & Kings most notably introduces religion (gods), new civilizations (kings), and espionage (&?). I'm optimistic about the new systems, which you can read about in my recent hands-on preview , but for an overview of the new leaders and units, hop inside to watch Producer Dennis Shirk and Lead Designer Ed Beach talk to someone standing next to the camera.

Neither of them mentioned Sweden, which is madness. Gustavus Adolphus , I choose you!

He was later captivated by Myst, SimCity, Civilization, Command & Conquer, Bushido Blade (yeah, he had Bleem!), and all the shooters they call "boomer shooters" now. In 2006, Tyler wrote his first professional review of a videogame: Super Dragon Ball Z for the PS2. He thought it was OK.
