Yes I am a Civilization fan .. maybe even a fanboi .. and I make no bones about it. I have played every version of the game and after Civ 4 I wondered what they could possibly do to make the game any better.

Well this video of Civ 5 gameplay and interviews with team behind the game has succeeded in doing one thing – it has made me want this game more than probably any other game (with the possible exception of Dungeon Siege 3).
