GalCiv 2 has been going up and down in the ranking these past few weeks, since launch. On Games Ranking early this week it was in 11th-15t position, today it's back to 2nd, same on gamespot. It's up and down but always amongst the top crop

Galactic Civilizations II is a strategy gamer's dream, boasting a rare mix of depth, customizability, humor, and replayability.
The Good: Extremely customizable gameplay provides superb replayability; the best ai in strategy gaming; very cool ship designer that significantly contributes to gameplay; truly viable variable victory conditions; will keep you up all night playing "just one more turn".
The Bad: No multiplayer; tech tree could use more information on new techs.


The good and the bad according with the "experts" I believe the Galactopedia is taking care of "more information on new techs"

That's probably because sales have been more sporadic recently due to the problem with the game being sold out.

It's sold out in all the stores in my area, so I just bought it online direct from Stardock for probably less than I could have at EB (including the shipping to have a physical copy mailed to me) and immediately downloaded the digital delivery copy to start playing. I love digital delivery games. I'd buy more games if more companies used it. (my wife's glad they don't...)
