The replay for god's sake!
Assuming someone has finished a game and got the option of the replay feature, how is it?
How detailed are your accomplishments and screw ups desplayed in the «book»?

Europeans cannot purchase the game until the 16th of november. Although that doesn't mean some of us can't PLAY the game right now. Right, Eli?

You'll notice the play bar. You can just watch it like a movie ... and as each event (like founding of a city) occurs, a pop up explains it and points to it on the map. There's also a power bar (those colored bars) indicating the civs against each other. You can select to view it by Power, Score or Culture.
Great stuff. I enjoy these kinds of things.
NOW: If we could only watch the ACTUAL game in replay. Can that be made possible?

Is this Yins twin brother or did he just say civ3 was awesome?
At least you've finally come to realise its a great thing firaxis have been doing these last 2 years Yin.. I have to say i've been worried about if civ3 could be better or improve enough on civ2 , I wonder if these new ideas were always ideas of sid meiers or where they came from.. The Resource system is genius.

Admiral: Well, I'm still in that giddy first few hours. I reserve the right to become less giddy. 
16 hour replay: Of course, you'd need a time mechanism. But think about this: We could share our saved games with each other and watch OTHER players in action. This was a most cool feature in other games.
Question: Does anybody know how to move an entire stack at once? I can't find that in the manual.
