Civilization Revolution Xbox 360 Review  by Craig D at 14:34

XBox
We set Craig loose on the Xbox 360 debut of Sid Meier's legendary strategy series Civilization Revolution this week, not quite knowing what to expect. Dumbed down console rubbish? Not a bit of it.

Trust me: this game loses NOTHING by going to console - and this is far from being a straight port. A whole new interface has been designed, complete with amazingly detailed 3d rendered advisors - the only downside is you go through that many menus while playing the game you rarely get chance to take these in, it's just a case of clicking and knocking them off the screen. But it doesn't get annoying, it adds to the atmosphere. Heck, I based my decision not to invade Russia on the sole basis that I thought the leader Catherine was hot. The pace is unrelenting though and I was quickly punished for not taking the initiative when the Red Army tanks rolled in.

Read the full review.
