When Civ3 comes out...
When Civ3 finally comes out we're going to look back on so many of these threads and laugh a lot.  Consider some of the silly things we are arguring about. Of course I think that apolyton will be abandoned for at least a day while everyone is playing. Also, we'll hear of people, possibly me who won't be able to find Civ3 in their area, how sad!
Anyway,
good civin'!

Tonight I just got my pre-order box from Best Buy and when the real game comes I will be jumping up and down for joy...then I will be sitting down starring at a monitor for 12 straight hours.

I know. It's going to be so hard to study my text books. And it's right in the middle of the semester. Arrrrrrrrghhhhhh!
I'll be dead in no time. I'll be saying just one more turn, then look up and it's 5 am.

Apolyton will be completely absent of americans because they will be playing, but everyone else will be here looking for first comments on the game because it doesn't ship overseas for at least a week.

H Tower, are you sure? Are you absolutely sure?? If it is so, then it's a pity. But hey, eventually it will come here. Won't it?

Warez my good friend, warez 
Well I need to know a concrete release date so I can take the time off work to truly give this computer game the time it deserves

Well I still most certainly intend to buy the game when it is released, but I am not too keen on the idea of having to wait for ages from the US release date.

It is ridiculous as there is no need for translation between the two. I have been checking on some stuff and it has all the necessary certification to be released in the UK. But whether there is a difference in release date between the two needs to be seen when the official release dates are published, which just seem to be moving back and forth...

They only give the 'special box' to people who cry a little when they stand before the counter.

Even more absent of Canadians. We can get the game at the same time and our winter teaches us how to buckle down and avoid human contact for weeks straight. I'll be permanently sick of Civ 3 before I return, if I do .
