Civilization Revolution

It's been a while since I've reviewed a game or even bought a new one but yesterday I purchased Civilization Revolution for Xbox 360. The game follows in the footsteps of past Civilization games, you control a nation and are responsible for expansion, technological advances, defense, politics and an array of other demographics for managing your civilization.

I've been a big fan of the Civilization (Civ) franchise since Civ 2 and was keen to discover how the game had made its transition from PC to console. Over the past year I've favored console games over PC games because of the ease of putting in a disk and playing a game over installing it on your PC.

I know a lot of people probably agree with me on that point. People will play games they find at the PartyPoker website or websites similar to that because it is so easy. With some of these games it is just with a click of a button that they can play. People like ease when it comes to games but also the game itself has to be really good.

Civilization Revolution is similar to Civ 4 for the PC however much of the micro management from Civ 4 has been removed, the pace of the game has been significantly increased mainly because technological discoveries happen a lot faster.
