IGN: Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution DS Review

Civilization Revolution is one of the better strategy titles for the DS and the only one that delivers the full empire-building experience that made the series such a hit on the PC. Yes, a number of elements have been streamlined and simplified but that makes Civilization Revolution a stronger game and a better fit for the handheld platform. It falls somewhat short in a number of key aspects of its presentation, particularly with regard to the cramped visuals and the occasional lack of information, but that doesn't stop it from being one of the more enjoyable strategy titles IGN has played this year.

No thanks, I'll stick with Advance Wars and Fire Emblem (when it gets here...)

5 Criminally Underplayed Games That Need More Love

Dorkly: "History is written by the winners, and that applies to games, too. While we hold up our post-apocalyptic wasteland adventures, period piece assassinations and Liberty City crime sprees on a pedestal, we would do well to remember the little guys. These underseen, criminally underplayed games didn't do well critically or commercially, but they were still wonderful experiences. Here's a small list of recommendations of unsung heroes of the PS3/Xbox 360/Wii era."

Alpha Protocol had so much potential. I'd really like to see another spy rpg.

Alpha Protocol has some fantastic ideas in its conversation and story progression due to choices. I really enjoyed my time with it.

A spy rpg can be done with amazing results if handled correctly.

I would add 007: Bloodstone to the list. That game was criminally underrated.

WizzroSupreme3353d ago

Okami, Beyond Good and Evil, Chibi-Robo!, and Pikmin should be among these.

God Hand

Partly because I just recently discovered it and its insane.

What a gold nugget.
