Civ Revolution headed Wii-ward after all
5
Turns out that the Wii wasn't forgotten when Firaxis decided to roll out Civilization Revolution -- we're just getting the game a few months later than the other guys. Is it too much to hope that the delay means we're getting online multiplayer, and it takes a little more time to work out the kinks with Nintendo's new system? Maybe we'll find out at E3, but we wouldn't bet on an answer coming that quickly. However, since 2K Games will be discussing the game with (and demonstrating for?) lucky attendees, at least a few juicy details are likely.

I'll comment! :) I loooooove the Civ franchise and I think the Nintendo interfaces will probably work out pretty well. I've played it on other consoles and thought those versions weren't nearly as good as the PC versions, for a variety of reasons, but I think the Nintendo systems have some features that can make Civ okay off the PC.

Wii get a Real game, A REAL GAME. 6 months after everyone else gets it, but beggar's can't be choosers. After that kind of delay, it better have an annoyance-free interface--adjustable scrolling speed, intuition, the works.

I think Civilization would actually be a great fit on the Wii. The interface doesn't translate well to a joystick at all. But the Wii-mote might just pull it off (although I'm quite fond of the keyboard).
VERY glad about this.
