New Civ3 Conquests video online !
Here it is : http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/...sts/media.html

Unfortunately, one has to be registered to see it. I'm not. Can anybody who is registered tell us what it is about ? I haven't seen the clip on other, free, sites

I was wondering about it mysellf. I saw this several days ago. I am not a member either.

I was curious as to if it covered Conquests since it is supposed to be a Sid interview, and it may cover more about other stuff and nothing new about Conquests. I read an interview with Sid that was a Pirates interview, and don't know if this clip isn't that interview.

I know it says it is about Conquests in the link, but I wasn't going to join just to find out.

Well, they present it here as a new "Movie of Civilization III : Conquests", so I sure hope Sid is talking about Conquests there

I know they present it that way, but sometimes Gamespot doesn't get the story correct, and I wasn't going to spend $25 to see if they did this time.

I hope it is some updated information about Conquests, but the clip was put up on May 23rd and no one has reported on it.

I have been moniitoring Gamespot, Gamespy, PC.IGN, and several other sites daily for updates on Conquests. So far, only Gamespot has mentioned this clip, so I am not as confident that it covers Conquests as I would be if other sites had also mentioned the clip.

Edit:
Last time, for PtW, they released the video for free after several days of being limited to paying members, maybe they will do that for this one.

Edited:

This from the link:

Sid Meier Video Interview
We catch up with Sid Meier at the Firaxis Press Event during E3 to talk about his upcoming projects.

erm yes. Mo is the usual French abbreviation for "Mega-Octet" (megabyte), so I sometimes confuse it.

Kring :
Well, I think you're right. It isn't worth subscribing to Gamespot to see whether it brings something new or not. Generally, Sid's interviews are just some PR for casual players, with no new content for the fans.

Hilarious.

I used to love Gamespot. But when they went to paying for it I never went back. Looks like I wasn't the only one.

I would spare the five bucks, but my bank account is about 135 bucks in the hole right now.

Any other philanthropy-minded souls out there?

None, Monkspider.

It's just sitting out there, but no one wants to pay $5 to see it...

You could just tell us what is in the video

I guess I'll ask around, anyway

This might not be legal, though, so you might want to be careful (It's probably best if you just explain it. Take Notes!)
