It's the gift that keeps on giving. The next Civilization game is now official. The new screenies already prove that it will be a generational leap in the eye candy department. Spong says the game may be developed for consoles, as well as the PC. This is a good idea for a number of reasons. One, bigger audience. Duh. Two, there's nothing else even close to it in the console area. Three, a lot of the original fans who aren't playing games anymore may see it's available on their kid's Xbox and jump back in. Any chance to bond with the kid is a good idea, right?

What screenies? Those screens are from Civ 3. Are there any Civ 4 screens around?

Generational leap in the eye candy department? What are you on about, Joystiq? Did you not play Civ 3 at all? Have you LOOKED at a PC game in the last 3 years?

I was confused there for a moment as well thinking, 'These new screenshots look exactly like the game I was playing last night.'
